many students say, “What is the point of math I am never going to use it.” That statement is not true, math is used on a daily basis in our everyday life. “Mathematics is the queen of science, and arithmetic the queen of mathematics” (Carl Friedrich Gauss). Not only is math a tremendous part of everyday life but it is also a substantial part of education. Education is something that many people are passionate about, but many people overlook how much influence math has on other subjects. Understanding

Sophie Germain Sophie Germain was a famous French mathematician. She was born on April 1, 1776 in Paris, France to very wealthy parents. Although her family was wealthy, they never allowed Sophie to study or receive an education. At that time, educating women was frowned upon and perceived as “dangerous”. Despite these beliefs, Sophie was determined to teach herself mathematics(Agnes Scott) . She did this by secretly reading math books in the night from her father’s library. Eventually

Irving Fisher was a well known American economist, mathematician, and writer. Fisher was born on February 27, 1867 in Saugerties, New York. Fisher attending Yale University from 1884 to 1888 and graduated first in his class with a B.A. degree. He also belonged to a secret senior society at Yale known as the “Skull and Bones” society. In 1891, Fisher became the first person to receive a Ph.D. in economics at Yale for his doctoral thesis on mathematical economics which Yale later published: “Mathematical

Sophie Germain was a French physicst, mathematician, and philospher in the 17 and 18 hundreds. By breaking the gender roles during her time period she was a pionner in elastity and number thereom. She was oppresed by her family and community because of her gender so did not have any easy path towards success compared to many others during her time. As an adolescent the Batille fell, forcing her to stay indoors for long period times. Enternationg herself, she became very interested in her fathers

David Hilbert's father, Otto Hilbert, was the son of a judge who was a high ranking Privy Councillor. Otto was a county judge who had married Maria Therese Erdtmann, the daughter of Karl Erdtmann, a Königsberg merchant. Maria was fascinated by philosophy, astronomy and prime numbers. Otto Hilbert had a brother who was a lawyer and another who was the director of a Gymnasium. After Otto was promoted to become a senior judge, he and Maria moved to 13 Kirchenstrasse in Königsberg and this was the home

Math is a big part of our lives now because once we get jobs we usually have to count money or add things up and in high school and college math gets even harder every year. This woman was born in the era of revolution when she was born the American Revolution had just began and a decade and two years later the French Revolution had begun in her own country. Sophie Germain was a middle class female who followed her dreams the dreams she wanted not the ones her parents wanted. She was born April

gun, the distance of the projectile will increase. Literature Review: Coil gun A coilgun (aka gun Gauss, Gauss Gauss cannon or rifle) is a type of gun that uses a series of electromagnets for magnetically accelerate a projectile at high speed. The name "Gauss gun" comes from Carl Friedrich Gauss, who formulated the mathematical proofs of the electromagnetic effect used by Gauss cannons. The Gauss cannons are often called wrongly railguns from various sources, and while they are similar in general

calculations. Mathematical functions can be ways to express simplicity with the eliminations of difficult equations through the use of practical formulas. Many can be used to resolve the model of how traffic flows, but Learning Team D has used the Gauss-Jordan Elimination technique to simplify and conclude the precise amount of car flow managed per street and per hour. Noticing that Elm Street and

INTRODUCTION Maxwell’s Equations are a set of four mathematical equations that provides the foundation to the largely abstract concepts of electricity and magnetism. They are a mathematical condensation of all the basic rules, by which electricity and magnetism function. Refer to Figure 1 for the equations. Although James Clerk Maxwell himself only contributed to the last equation, his contribution led to one of the most important discoveries in the history of science. However, it wasn’t until 25

Sophie was a middle class woman in a prejudiced time Sophie did not receive much recognition to her work on the number theory and mathematical physics At age 13 she began her research in math reading works of Leonhard Euler, Lagrange, Legendre, and Gauss. She spent this time confined to her house due to the fact there was common french revolts. She spent this time in her father’s library. Germaine began teaching herself mathematics. Her parents thought the hobby she took up was not suitable hobby.
