“Are you listening to me Morty? Homework is stupid. The whole point is to get less of it.” This quote from the show Rick and Morty would have described my thoughts as a high school student. I knew I enjoyed the sciences and wanted to be an engineer, but nothing specific excited me. That all changed when I read an article about asteroid mining. The idea of space exploration gave me direction and aspirations. This didn’t mean I was set though. I still had to develop discipline, work ethic, and
on January 9, 1799. Agnesi is notable for writing the first mathematics handbook. This handbook was a two volumes. Arithmetic, Algebra, trig, analytic geometry, and calculus were all in the first volume of the handbook. Infinite series and differential equations were the topics of the second volume, this one was much more advanced. The book took a long time to develop and be published. It took more than ten years!
the components by the Darcy’s equation. Darcy’s equation: q=kA∆PµL ..... (1) The SI unit for permeability, k is m2. Permeability is also measured in Darcy, D. 1 D is approximately 10-12m2. Factors affecting permeability are membrane solubility, pressure, concentration and temperature of the molecules or solutes. Permeability is also affected by size of the molecules of the fluids that passing through the medium. Darcy’s equation is valid for any Newtonian fluids
Iris recognition has become the most reliable method of automatic identification. The growing use of this biometric method is based on the visible complex structure of the iris. Traditional methods of automatic identification rely on special possessions such as cards and passports or secrets like passwords and PIN numbers. The disadvantage of these methods is that they can be separated from the person. Examples of biometrics include iris, retina, voice patterns, face recognition, fingerprints as
test the efficiency of the motor when the mass being lifted was increased in increments of ten grams. As the mass increased by each increment of ten grams, the motor efficiency decreased by an average of 7.439%. Our results were found by using the equation: efficiency=gain in potential differenceelectrical energy used Therefore, this inverse relationship proved mass affects the efficiency of electric motors. Introduction ( Jackson Cates and Aidan Rogers): The purpose of this experiment was to investigate
THE FOUNDER OF MODERN FLUID DYNAMICS: LUDWIG PRANTDL A fluid is defined as a substance that does not have any determined shape and is deformed continuously by a shear force, thus it can be said that fluid mechanics is considered as a part of physics which is concerning about gases, liquids and plasmas, in the other words, no solid phases.[1] Modern fluid mechanics is based on Continuum Hypothesis. This hypothesis assumes that a matter is continuous, hence while a matter is examined, atomic structure
Earnings Differentials by Gender Xing Pan Introduction Background The equality between women and men is always a topic in today’s society. Right now when we talk about the equality of women and men, we also care about if women and men have the equal right and if they enjoy the equal protection in the working environment, in terms of the working hours or of their salaries. From the text book, “Blau, Ferber, Winkler, 2009”, we knew that the differences of occupational of the job already happened long
Death. Danger. Destruction. These are some words that may come into mind when thinking about the topic of war and the military. What doesn’t usually come to mind is the word “math”. Unknown to many, math is involved in many aspects of the military. It has contributed to the conquering of enemies and the advancement of systems, technology, and war strategies in the military and Army. One example of how math has been used in war occurred during World War II. During World War II, the Allies reached
Economic dispatch(ED) is basically an optimization problem for economic scheduling of power generating units to meet the forecasted load demand while satisfying all operational constraints [1]. As practical ED is a complex constrained optimization problem, its solution requires robust optimization methods. An extensive study on has been carried out by researchers on small /medium/ large dimension problems related with single area till date [2]-[4]. The ED problem aims to determine the optimum powers
