Tuesdays with Morrie
One of the greatest aspects of humanity is that no two people are identical; rather, every individual has his own perspective, beliefs, and ideas. This discrepancy among opinions is the basis for all conflicts and arguments. However, these conflicts can be beneficial, as two opposing sides may negotiate with each other to reach a verdict…

Since…
Abstract on Lasers and Its Applications
Electronics
Light
Radiation
Abstract: A laser is an optical device that emits coherent light (electromagnetic radiation). The term ‘laser’ is an acronym for Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation. Typically, lasers are thought of as emitting light in a narrow, low-divergence beam, with a narrow wavelength spectrum (‘monochromatic’ light). Lasers need not have either characteristic, however, it…
Public Speaking Self Reflection
Reflection
Public speaking has always been very hard for me, I’ve never been the type to stand in front of an audience and speak or do a presentation. No matter how many times I’ve done presentations I’ve always get nervous or shy and always forget what I rehearsed. In the military I was training Nco, everytime…

Water
Introduction In John Mcphee’s book The Control of Nature, he attempts to look into several natural phenomena and how people have attempted to cope with the serious effects brought about by these events. In Atchafalaya, Mcphee notes that attempt of man to “prevent the Mississippi from changing course by controlling flows diverted into the…

Universe
The cosmological argument has many variations of which only one will be explored in the following paragraphs. The argument is stated thus: the world (or universe) exists, and since it exists, there must have been a cause for its existence; therefore, some being, namely God, must have created it. The following will systemically explore…

Reflection is defined as “the process of creating and clarifying the meaning of experience in terms of self”(Boyd & Fales 1983, p101) and Reid (1993) defines reflection as “a process of reviewing an experience of practice in order to describe, analyse, evaluate and so inform learning about practice” (p305).Many authors recommend the use of a…

Thermodynamics
According to the kinetic molecular theory, gas particles are constantly in motion just like other forms of matter. However, their movement is distinct in that it is characterized by random translation. In solids, the particles primarily undergo vibrational motion. In liquids, they mainly vibrate and rotate, and also experience some translational motion. Gas particles move…
Connecting Poetry with Life: A Personal Reflection

Reflection
In poetry one can find inspiring thoughts and messages one can use to fonder upon one’s life. Poetry as an art is also a form of self expression that existed out of man’s desire to convey his feelings and thoughts in a creative and sentimental way. Art itself can be express in the form of…

Reflection
My reflective clinical practice experience was based on my eight weeks placement in an acute mental health ward in a hospital. I was not sure of what to expect because I have never worked or placed in an acute ward and this was my second placement. Before starting my placement, I visited the ward and…
description | Physics is the natural science that studies matter, its fundamental constituents, its motion and behavior through space and time, and the related entities of energy and force. Physics is one of the most fundamental scientific disciplines, and its main goal is to understand how the universe behaves. |
---|---|
quotations | “Energy is liberated matter, matter is energy waiting to happen.” “Not only is the Universe stranger than we think, it is stranger than we can think.” “It doesn’t matter how beautiful your theory is, it doesn’t matter how smart you are. “ |
information | Equilibrium: equilibrium, in physics, the condition of a system when neither its state of motion nor its internal energy state tends to change with time. … An equilibrium is unstable if the least departure produces forces that tend to increase the displacement. An example is a ball bearing balanced on the edge of a razor blade., Magnitude: In physics, magnitude is described in simple words as ‘distance or quantity’. It shows the direction or size that is absolute or relative in which an object moves in the sense of motion. It is used to describe the size or extent of something. Generally, in physics, magnitude relates to distance or quantity.
