    from Stace (which describes the man killed by a tile from a roof) holds that “we do not find it necessary to suppose that someone threw the tile down from the roof on purpose. We are quite satisfied to attribute the event to… the operation of natural forces” (271). Stace is absolutely right, it is not necessary to suppose that someone threw the tile down; however, some would argue that it is much more probable that the tile was thrown (that there was design), given the fact that the tile happened to

    Introduction The intent of this experiment is to further practice the scientific method, by constructing a boat made out of aluminum foil to hold as many pennies as possible before sinking in water. I hope to get a better perception of the scientific method by doing an experiment. I also hope to gain knowledge about the way a boat is designed and how it affects the weight that it can support. Based on my research, I know that the smaller the boat is, the less weight it will hold. I also know that

    Synthesis Essay Most parents/adults are stressed when they come home from work. They, as your parents, may do something you may not like, because of their problems at work. If they yell at you, just take it and don't complain about it. They're not just angry at you or at everybody. They just simply have too many problems at work and too many responsibilities at home.

    (Sandborg, D. (n.d.) PHYSICS of ROLLER COASTERS), “a G- Force, according to its name is not the force of gravity. A G- force is measured in terms of what you feel when you are sitting still in the earth’s gravitational field. When in the state of the earth’s gravitational field you are in a 1-G environment.” “Considering that you are in a free fall. In the case, the seat isn’t supporting you at all; that’s why you are falling. Thus, the seat exerts no force on you, and you are said to be experiencing 0 Gs

    it stays in motion until acted upon by an outside force. This is the key element in softball. When the pitcher pitches the ball it travels on the path until the batter hits the ball. The softball travels through the air due to the seams (Bauer & Westfall, Motion of a Softball, 2010). The seams cause high and low pressure fronts while the grip determines how the ball will rotate. Gravity, wind, air drag, velocity, spin, and Magnus are all forces acting upon the softball when it is

    part of a car or automobile it is useful for the engine to be located in the center of the car because more forces will be acting on it. If the engine were to be located in the front or the back of the car it would only overcome two tires instead of overcoming the four tires. It would make a car less safe because there would be a higher chance of slipping. In addition, friction is a force that resists motion. The tires of the car has grooves which will prevent the car from slipping. The friction

    1) What was Galileo’s discontent with Aristotelian mechanics in De Motu? - According to Aristotelian philosophy, he believes that there is no effect without cause; therefore, there is no motion without a force. In this theory, an object that is falling down is known for the force that is cause by the weight and it is pushing down the object; however, the resistance is the medium such as air or water. The objects that fall are looking for their natural place; therefore, large objects contain greater

    Our purpose of the lab is to study the different types of waves, along with, their properties. The procedures we did was to send a single wave to your partner. Then, move one end forward and back to create a longitudinal wave. Although, you move the slinky up and down to create a transverse wave. The result that we got was quite surprising. The waves created different energy outputs. We learned that the different motions we make with a slinky can create different waves. Introduction I wanted to
