Essays on Isaac Newton

The battle for water between India and Pakistan is long and has a rich history. This situation dates back to 1960 when the two countries decided to share the water based on rivers in the Indus water treaty of 1960 (Aaron T. Wolf and Joshua T. Newton, in institute of the water and watershed). The eastern rivers, Beas, Sutlej, and Ravi were exclusively set aside for India. At the same time, the rivers in the western, the Indus, Chenab, and Jhelum where set aside for Pakistan. Times have changed since then, and the demand for water and water related Continue reading...

Isaac Newton’s story of how an apple falling from a tree that hit his head inspired him to formulate a theory of gravitation is one that all school children grow up hearing about. Newton is arguably one of the most influential scientific minds having ever lived. He has published books such as Arithmetica Universalis, The Chronology of Ancient Kingdoms, Methods of Fluxions, Opticks, the Queries, and most famously, Philosophiæ Naturalis Principia Mathematica. He formulated the three laws of gravitation, discovered the generalized binomial theorem, developed infinitesimal calculus (sharing credit with Gottfried Wilhelm Von Leibniz, who developed the theory Continue reading...

Biometrika has fro the last 100 years published over 400 years concerning the subject of Time Series. Time series is a significant feature in Biometrika under the editorship of Professor E.S. Pearson.
These papers grew enormously at a rate of 10% up to the present time. The first Time series paper was written by Gosset “student” and Anderson (1914). Correlation was a new and a crucial concept in Time series. Consider two time series, (Xt) and (Yt) as expressed below
Xt = mt +et and Yt = Mt + Et
Where et and Et are sequences of uncorrelated random variables, mt and Continue reading...

Traditional narrative often paints Latin America as a defenseless victim of international lust for power. Latin America has habitually been thought of as a poor region full of merry people being always exploited by countless empires or armies of greedy people willing to sack their seemingly endless resources. The fact that this region full of hard working people and vast resources, is still one of the least developed areas in the world, might lead anyone to believe they are under a permanent spell cast by the great world powers, especially the United States, that condemn them to eternal poverty.

Parliamentary and presidential systems are the two major systems of governments that have been adopted by many countries across the world. While the majority of established democracies in the world have opted for a parliamentary system, the presidential system has been found to be more democratic. In the presidential system, the executive has the stability to execute their constitutional mandate unlike in a parliament system where the legislature can use their powers to upset the executive (Newton & Deth, 2010). This research paper will give a detailed definition of both systems of governments; give a comparative analysis of both systems Continue reading...

Introduction

The purpose of this experiment was to verify Newton’s second law of motion. The force and acceleration data was collected by Logger Pro for a cart moved back and forth. This data was used to analyse the relationship between force, acceleration and mass. It was hypothesised that the acceleration would directly be proportional to applied force but inversely proportional to the mass of the cart.

- When you push on an object, how does the magnitude of the forces affect its motion? If you push harder, is the change in motion smaller or larger? Do you think is Continue reading...

Introduction

Ethics is the principal moral conduct, which addresses issues that individuals perceive to infringe their rights. Ethics tries to define and guide us how we should live in our society in harmony. It also tries to analyze the impacts of one’s behavior to others, and its social consequences in the long-run. In addition, it compares what is moral in one society and what is not in another society. This is because our societies are divergent, and what is accepted as moral in one society can be regarded as very immoral in another society. A good example is selling Continue reading...

Psychology is the study of the mind, behavior and brain scientifically. Psychology brings out varies levels analysis, from to complex social and cultural influences, as well as from the brain to mind. Therefore, psychology is used throughout human life and cannot be exempted in any way. For that reason, psychologists are able to predict the natural behaviors of humans based on their daily activities. In order to study these behaviors, scientists have to come up with ways in which the analyses can be done. This has led to the creation of six scientific thinking principles that have been set Continue reading...

Since the beginning of the early civilizations, man tried to understand the world around him and why events take place. Some tried to put symbols to non-living things and even on natural occurrences, while many turned to religion to explain the meaning of life and the mystery behind the creation story. However, there were a few who deviated from this unyielding faith in religious preaching and sought to answer the world’s many mysteries through their own studies. In Europe, this desire to solve these mysteries escalated into a conflict between religion and science that resulted to the advent Continue reading...

The New Product Development process is the main process of bringing a new product into existence in a market. It is a process that aims at ensuring that the product is the best in the market. It is considerate of various factors, which are paramount. Depending on various factors, the manufacturer is not likely to undertake all steps involved in the process. Instead, he may choose some of the most significant steps to him. This is the reason why Newton Running focused on some steps.
One of the steps that he applied is idea generation. He had identified market Continue reading...

Introduction

Atoms have become an important study item not only in the scientific field, but also in the overall study field. Atoms have a basic meaning as being a unit of any chemical element. This is only but a basic understanding of what an atom is. Atoms have a history from which it got its basic definition dating back to the Greek period. Early Greek ideas about atoms were diverse based on what the perception and mentality was. The understanding of atoms in the ancient Greek empire was more of a philosophical than scientific. The basic thought during the ancient Continue reading...

Experiment 2: Motion in one dimension

Introduction:
Motion of a body in one dimension is basic study in physic and to have knowledge about motion in one dimension it is necessary to be acquainted with two fundamental laws of physics. One of them is Newton’s laws of motion and another is Newton’s law of gravity. There are three laws in Newton’s laws of motion, but in this paper only Newton’s second law of motion has been discussed. If force is applied on a body, the same will move as a result of applied force on the body. The body will remain Continue reading...

People have been using lift for already more than a hundred years. Lift – is a component of the aerodynamic force which is perpendicular to the vector of the velocity of the motion of an object in the steam of liquid or of a gas which results from asymmetry of the body flow by a stream. It occurs at the motion of any object in the air, if the object has a shape conducive to this (the wing, for example).
Air flow around the wing is divided into two streams: over the wing and under it. Lower flow steams in Continue reading...

Introduction

One of the famous irrational number in mathematics is the number e which has a value: e= 2.71828 18284 59045 23536 02874 71352 66249 77572 47093 69995
The number e was named by the Swiss-German mathematician, Leonhard Euler, in 17th century. It is frequently called Euler's number after his name; however, the letter e stands for the word exponential. The number e is the base of the natural logarithms that is created by John Napier. In the year 1737, Euler employed the symbol for pi to denote the ratio of the circumference to the diameter within a circle. Then, Continue reading...

The Copernican revolution is a paradigm shift from the Ptolemaic model of the universe that has postulated that the Earth is the center of the universe, a heliocentric model with the Sun at the center of our solar system. This event was one of the starting points of the beginning of the scientific revolution of the XVI century. Copernican theory was tantamount to a revolutionary restructuring not only in astronomy and science, but also in the methods of scientific research and knowledge. It has led to radical changes in the way of thinking of scientists, turning it from conventional Continue reading...

“There are only two ways in which humankind can produce knowledge: through passive observation or through active experiment.” To what extent do you agree with this statement?
The argument whether knowledge can be attained through passive observation or active experiment defines the meaning of knowledge. When you look at two people argue, philosophers argue this is passive knowledge of the argument as you are not actively being engaged in the argument. However, as you argue with your friend, this is defined as active knowledge since you are in a position to experience the argument and get to know something Continue reading...

Abstract

Fuelled by the protests that marred the 1979 Iranian Revolution, the 1979 Energy Crisis was caused a decline in oil production in Iran. The attack Iran by Iraq under the leadership of Saddam Hussein worsened the situation. Attack of Iran by Iraq almost brought to a halt oil production in Iran. The attack also causes a severe reduction in oil supply by Iraq. The 1979 Energy Crisis had a colossal impact on both the oil producing and oil consuming states. Nonetheless, the oil-consuming states such as the United States were more affected. The reaction of the populations affected by Continue reading...

During the early years of the 14th century, most of the western civilizations are active in spreading their Christian faith. They have travel half way across the globe in order to fulfill their religious duties as well as expand their political territories. Religion has been powerful during this time and anyone who opposes their beliefs is commonly punished (Henry 3). However, there are also some who are taking the odds against religion and looking up into the sky for answers about the cosmos and other realities of life. These people are the creators and initiators of the modern science Continue reading...

The play, ‘The Importance of Being Earnest' by Oscar Wilde which is a ludicrous comedy where we are shown people running away from their community commitments. There is a lot of satire that has been brought out by the writer in most marriages. In some marriages, people are concerned about the name and advantages that come with it. Some look for wealth while the others aim is nobility that is associated with their counterparts (Hörz, Stefanie 94). Jack opted to propose to Gwendolen at the absence of her mother and her cousin, Algernon. However, Gwendolen is not ready Continue reading...

David Hume one of central figures of Scottish Enlightenment said “The Christian religion not only was at first attended with miracles, but even at this day cannot be believed by any reasonable person without one.” This is an ample evidence of his rational and logical thinking. He always argued in favour of proof in order to establish the truth – making him one of the strongest rationalists and also establishing himself as an empiricist. Continue reading...

The epigraph mentioned in the question has been taken from the journal The Medieval Church Encounters the Classical Tradition. This blame on medieval ages is most often credited to the Christian Churches for throwing away the minute sparks of science and other creative activities.
However, the conformation of the scholars to this fact has proved to be a major hindrance to the real understanding of the medieval ages. It cannot be denied that the middle ages were the times of political and social turmoil and saw a steep decline in the fields of learning and literacy. But, it is Continue reading...

The role of the media has continuously changed over the years following the introduction of media as a form of communication in the early centuries. This is due to the impact that the media industry has proved to have on the society by putting different messages across. It is well known that there has been a notable increase the amount of media houses that are well established in different countries. Despite providing a wide range of entertainment, the media industry has continuously had a shift in the role they play by providing information. This is witnessed in the role Continue reading...

IntroductionYeast is a single-celled organism and is a type of fungi. Yeast has been used for centuries as the driving force behind the process of fermentation, which enables dough to rise into a loaf of bread. To make a loaf rise, yeast converts sugar (C6H12O6) and oxygen from the air (02) into carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H20). When no oxygen is available, yeast will switch to an alternative pathway that does not need oxygen.Yeast metabolizes sugar (C6H12O6) to make carbon dioxide gas (CO2) and ethanol (C2H5OH) as end products. This carbon dioxide gas produced from yeast fermentation is Continue reading...

Gay marriage remains one of the controversial issues in American politics. One of the critical topics associated with gay couples entails adoption of children for foster care. The issue of gay couples to adopt children is one of the political issues in the United States. These are based on the fact that the voters’ decision focus on the issue as one of the agendas towards elections. The political history and election decisions are based on whether the candidates support the gay adoption or not. Adoption of children by gay couples for foster care has been legalized in various states. Continue reading...

I. Introduction
In this research paper, the relationship between science and religion is examined in terms of the potential for a harmonious coexistence. This is an old debate and currently it is a vitally significant one. The view of science and religion as warring enemies has historic roots. The Catholic Inquisition was known to persecute and execute people considered heretics because of their belief in science and scientific things. The Church found science as an explanation offensive. Galileo Galilei is one of the most well known of the victims of the Inquisition. He was imprisoned and forced to do Continue reading...

Gravity is precisely defined as a pulling force; it pulls objects (matter) towards it. The intensity of force is directly proportional to the quantity of matter, so the things composed of more matter tend to be pulled with greater intensity of force. The mass of any object is the fundamental unit being used to measure the quantity of matter it that object. Therefore, the more heavy and matter in the object is, the higher gravitational pull will it put forth. Earth exerts a pulling force on the objects (Human beings) that move on its surface and as a result Continue reading...

The enlightenment period or the age of enlightenment as it is commonly known is a period in the 18th century where the smartest minds of the time tried to explain formerly unexplainable phenomena using scientific methodology and reasoning as opposed to tradition and faith which were more puritan ideals (Nina, 365). Everything at the time was subject to critical reasoning. Some of the fields that faced the reasonable critique were politics, religion and most importantly literature. Before the enlightenment period the dominant force on knowledge was religion, especially Christianity. The 18hth century saw major transformations with many believing that Continue reading...

One of the dark secrets of Newton is his deep curiosity and obsession to religion and his devotion to occult. Another revelation shows that Newton has tried to enter pseudoscience which means he settled on beliefs and practices that are mistakenly known as based on scientific method given that before everything, he believes that everything in this world can be subscribed to scientific understanding. According to Walter Lewin, one of the speakers in the video, Isaac Newton is allergic to criticisms even before that is why he decided on keeping his inventions and even the other earthly manners that Continue reading...

Introduction

Physics remains a very useful field in the modern technological lives. Without physics, there would be very little understanding of how things work. Physics creates an understanding of the functioning mechanisms of the world and the different elements through such topics as kinetic energy, laws of motion, laws of gravity, mass, etc. Almost every aspect of people’s lives revolves around physics. Consequently, without physics, there wouldn’t be development such as lighting from electricity sources, motor-vehicles, electricity and so on. Physics is, therefore, an arm of science that involves the study of matter characteristics, energy and Continue reading...

Management

Introduction
In his book, “Supportive Leadership: The New Role of Leaders in the 21st Century”, Gunther H. Schust declares that the paradigms of management and leadership are changing in an increasingly globalized world. Schust points out that leaders could get the job done with blunt tactics of hiring and firing. However, the need of the hour is for leaders to professionally select employees, support them in their endeavors, challenge them in the work environment, make them further qualified and enable them to function seamlessly in a networked world. Schust (8) uses the new requirements of leaders to call for Continue reading...
