Wenzel Lowe Period 3 Erwin Schrodinger Erwin Schrodinger was a physicist known for winning a Nobel Peace Prize from his wave equation and his paradox Schrodinger's Cat. Though not as famous as other scientists such as Nikola Tesla or Albert Einstein, he still proved to be a large contributor to the theoretical world of physics and science. On August 12, 1887 in Vienna, Austria, a chemistry professor birthed a soon to be known physicist, Erwin Schrodinger. As he grew, he was home-schooled by his parents and several tutors, stopping at the age of 11. Seeing that Schrodinger was intellectual, he went to a university preparatory school.
By what criteria might you determine whether a question might be answered using the scientific method definition-"a method or procedure that has characterized natural science since the 17th century, consisting in systematic observation, measurement, and experiment, and the formulation, testing, and modification of hypotheses.”? In the Scientific method of operation if you look at figure 1-7 the scientific method is like an
Instead, the energy of light existed as a stream of tiny particles, called quanta. Albert Einstein (1905) used Planck's relationship to explain the results of the photoelectric effect which showed that the energy E of ejected electrons was dependent upon the frequency f of incident light as described in the equationE=hf. It is ironic that in 1921 Albert Einstein was awarded the Nobel Prize for this discovery, though
“She observed in later years that girls and boys in her youth were not treated equally and that daughters were wholly neglected in point of Literature” (Baym). John was the son of a farmer from Braintree, now Quincy, Massachusetts. Unlike Abigail, he was well educated. John graduated from Harvard, and “taught until the relationship between teacher and preacher became too uncomfortable” (Baym). Law became his new study of interest, and John was admitted to the Boston bar in 1758.
1. Astronomy involves the physical properties and movements of universe, solar system, and planets. Astrology attempts to predict real events based on the positions of planets and stars etc. Astronomy has makes use of fixed rules and physics, as defined through historical observations. Astrology uses personal interpretation of whomever is giving the reading.
He then attended St Albans high school for girls, between 1950 and 1953 because during those time boys where educated at the girls schools till the age of 10. At the age of 11 he attended the school of St Alban. Hawking was good at school, but not exceptionally a brilliant student, he was always interested in science. After finish school he enrolled himself at University College, oxford, and he chose physics as his subject. In 1962 it was a great shock for him to discover that he had motor neurone disease.
1. INTRODUCTION Sir Isaac Newton produced three laws of motion. Newton’s second law of motion states that, “the acceleration (a) of an object is directly proportional to the net force acting on it and inversely proportional to its mass” (VUILLE, 86). This second law can be written into mathematical terms and written as: a = Fnet /m However, the equation above is more commonly seen as: Fnet = ma In these equations a represents the acceleration of the object, m is the objects mass Fnet represents the vector sum of all the forces acting on the object. The Atwood machine is an apparatus that explores the idea states above.
It seems that He could rarely be mistaken. Benjamin Franklin was born on January 17th, 1706 in Boston, Massachusetts, to Josiah Franklin and Abiah Folger Franklin. Benjamin, who was the tenth child, of seventeen sisters and brothers, “the youngest son of a youngest son for five generations back” (Franklin). Benjamin was a smart child who loved to read Abiah and Josiah wanted Benjamin to be a clergyman, but due to financial issues they could not send Benjamin to college, so Josiah had him first apprenticed as a candle maker and then to his brother, James as a typesetter in a printing press. The books, papers and ideas he was introduced to in his brother’s shop set the young man on a path to greatness.
He went to Yale University, where he was a member of a secret society named Skull and Bones, after Yale he went to Harvard Law School and a clerkship for Supreme Court justice Oliver Wendell Holmes Jr. Bundy was a very intelligent person, he once read a paper in front of the class and was unprepared. The teacher did not know he was unprepared by how well his speech was. Bundy applied and got accepted to the University of Yale. He was the first person to record three perfect scores on his college entrance exam. Bundy majored in mathematics while he was in Yale University.

He was born in the Lancashire hamlet of Walmersley just north of Bury in England in June 17th 1704.
