Dylan Bell 11/12/09 Physics, Outer Space, and Biology Physicists, biologists, astrologers and astronomers have been making discoveries for many years and helping the world become a better place. Physics is a complex field of science involving the exploration of the structure of matter. Physicists use a lot of equipment such as lasers, telescopes, mass spectrometers, and more. Physicists find ways to apply physical rules and theories to conflicts in nuclear energy, electronics, materials, communication, and medical instruments, which can be used in every day society. Physicists can specialize in various different kinds of physics.
Their discovery prompted astronomers around the world to look in places where planets were not found to exist and allowed us to further examine how a planet can exist at such extreme temperatures. The methods and thought processes by Mayor and Queloz are essential in
Telescopes also indicated mountains and craters on the moon. Future telescopes have discovered geography and weather on the planets in our solar system. Telescopes have also exposed new planets and asteroids. These devices helped us make the first legitimate measurement of the speed of light. Telescopes have also assisted us to comprehend gravity and other vital laws of the physical world.
His observations of planetary motion, mostly that of Mars, gave important data for astronomers to come, like Kepler. This helped us construct our model of the solar system we use today. The calculation that if the Earth moves then the stars are at least 700
One would be Fire Resistant Material which is chemically treated fabric and is used by every single one of our Fire Departments. Another is the Wind Monitor, the wind monitor allows for making high resolution measurements for a wind profile and for meteorological studies and predictions. NASA also developed Solar Energy. Solar Energy is a clean and efficient power source coming from the sun. Forest management was influenced by NASA as well, they use satellites to scan, monitor, and map radiation reflected and emitted by
12. How does the fact that the Earth has a magnetic field help provide evidence for the theory of plate tectonics? The magnetic “structure” of the Earth is changing because of plate tectonics. 13. What were the main components of the atmosphere when the Earth formed, and what are the main components today?
“The Origin of Old-Earth Geology and its Ramifications for Life in the Twenty-First Century” by: Dr. Terry Mortensen Name Liberty University Author Note This article review was prepared for PHSC210-B04, taught by Name I. Introduction Dr. Mortenson’s article “The Origin of Old-Earth Geology and its Ramifications for Life in the Twenty-First Century” is an informative synopsis of relevant observations and key information that provides the article with a supporting view of a Young-Earth history. II. Brief overview & main points Mortenson utilizes this article to allow for a brief, yet insightful overview of some pivotal scientist’s, mineralogist’s, geologist’s, Stratigraphy experts, and anatomist’s that paved
Consequently, the study of the birth, life, and death of stars is central to the field of astronomy. ] (Netting, 2011) We explore the complexity of the stars and what astronomers use to determine fundamentals of their temprature, speed , rotation, and composition.
