in the human retina, a location in the visual field that correspond with the optic disk at the back of the eye, which does not receive visual input due to the lack of photoreceptors there. However, people do not perceive a “hole” in their visual field because the other eye and its corresponding region on the visual field that takes visual stimuli from the same area as the blind spot compensates for the lack of visual stimuli thus the lack of visual field representation there.

The field got its name from General John Forbes who fought in the French an Indian war. Forbes Field was built in 1908 and cost over one million dollars. The way the field was created was entirely different from any other ballpark in the United States. Steel and poured concrete were the only things used to build Forbes Field. The ballpark was sold to the University of Pittsburgh in 1958 for three million dollars

The McCormick Tribune Campus Center has two primary components, the one-story building that has multiple different activities for students and guests, and the long stainless steel tube that is placed directly above the roof of the building. The function of the steel tube is that it is designed to greatly muffle the noise and vibration generated by the passing commuter trains. According to IIT, the tube muffles the train noise noise from an average 120 dB to about 70-80 dB outside the building, about

on multiple subjects at the same time. However, this ability declines as we age. Older adults have a difficcult time processing information in the visual periphery. Mnay researches have been done to compare young adult and older adults functional field of View (FFOV). Though the expectation for the results of the research was not met, by measuring the retinal area from which observers can collect information necessary to make specific judgements, we can determine the differnce between young adults

William gilbert was an astronomer, English physician, and a physicist. Also know as the”father of electricity”. His parents were Hierome Gilbert and Jerome Gilbert. He had four books published in his lifetime which one of them were about how he did his experiments and all of his findings about the earth and its magnetic forces. William Gilbert was born May 24, 1544 in Colchester, England. He went to St John’s college and Cambridge University he later gained a MD from the St John’s college, Cambridge

From the dawn of time to even now, genocides have been happening throughout history. Some earlier genocides have not even been recorded or documented. Genocides happen because one group wants complete control and absolute power of another. People can be killed for having different ideals or being different. Knowing this, one could see that genocides only end with senseless and brutal discrimination and death. From 1975 to 1979, Pol Pot and the Khmer Rouge carried out a genocide in Cambodia killing

Purpose: The purpose of this lab is to find the magnitude of Earth’s Magnetic field using solenoids. Procedure: For this lab, we used a commercial solenoid with 120 turns that is 46 cm long. We set up the solenoid in a circuit with a battery, ammeter, and variable resistor. The solenoid has a compass in the middle, so that we can measure the variation in the angle. When we close the circuit, we can change the current by adjusting the variable resistor and recording the value from the ammeter. To

Have you ever wondered how a Trebuchet works, well if you read this you will know. To test a Trebuchet you have to know if the length of an arm on a Trebuchet affects the distance the projectile travels. This is an important question if you like building, figuring out how things work, or physics. Also, understanding how a Trebuchet works can help people learn how to make more advanced machines or weapons. Yes the length of an arm on a trebuchet affects the distance it travels. A longer arm will

A magnet is anything with a magnetic field. Magnets attract ferrous objects like pieces of steel, iron, nickel and cobalt. They slightly attract liquid oxygen and other materials and they slightly repel water, carbon and boron. Magnets are made from a mineral called magnetite, one of earths rare minerals. Magnetite is a dark grey or black color and when in sunlight, it can have a tint of brown. Magnetite can be found in large amounts by beaches or shores. It is also known as lodestone. Magnetite

"Let every nation know, whether it wishes us well or ill, that we shall pay any price, bear any burden, meet any hardship, support any friend, oppose any foe to assure the survival and the success of liberty" by John F. Kennedy. This quote illustrates how no matter the circumstance survival will be present. This relates to Loung because this is her first instinct on everything that occurs in her life. First They Killed My Father by Loung Ung is about a young girl named Loung and her family. The family
