Mechanical Energy
Number of words: 493 - Number of pages: 2.... us,
we may not always be sure that heat is given off. Our bodies do not burst
into flames but the perspiration on our skin is a clue to what is happening.
The movement of the windsurfer has a different explanation. The
windsurfer is propelled along by a sail which collects mechanical energy
from the winds that sweep along the water. This energy has been produced
by the sun which warms the earth's surface and sets the air above in motion.
The sun's heat comes to the earth as a form of radiant energy. When the
heat reaches the surface of the earth, it causes the land or seas to ri .....

Plan And Purpose (Creation) Or Time And Chance (Evolution)?
Number of words: 16538 - Number of pages: 61.... You can say that both creation and evolution are biased in their
approach because those that believe in creation (creationists) posses a
strong, firm, uncompromising sense of their beliefs and doctrines, and
those that believe in evolution (evolutionists) posses an incompressible
view of their beliefs. Creationists firmly believe that their tentative
assumptions and ideology on how the universe was formed and how life began
is legitimate, exact, and accurate in all aspects. Evolutionists, however,
also believe that their philosophy and conception on how the earth was
formed a .....

Quantum Computing

A description of the world in which an object can apparently be in more than one place at the same time, in which a particle can penetrate a barrier without breaking it, in which something can be both a wave and a particle, and in which widely separated particles can cooperate in an almost psychic fashion, is bound to be both thrilling and bemusing. Niels Bohr, one of the founders of the theory, once remarked that anybody who is not shocked by quantum mechanics hasn't understood it.
For decades the complexity and incredibility of the quantum .....

in studying rocks and fossils. He convinced his father that he could not
be a doctor a .....

Atom Book
Number of words: 280 - Number of pages: 2.... today. An atom is made of little things
called protons, nuetrons, and electrons. Protons have a positive charge,
neutrons have no charge, and electrons have a negative charge. Electrons travel
around the center of the atom, which is called the nucleus. Kind of like how
Earth revolves around the sun. Protons and nuetrons make up the center of the
atom.
The atom has an atomic number. Scientists find that number by counting how many
protons are in the nucleus. In this case Helium has two protons.
Scientists find the average atomic mass by adding up protons and neutrons many
times. Then they d .....

Galileo
Number of words: 1785 - Number of pages: 7.... towards others. Darwin was well
respected by the intellectual community, but the difference was the way they
conducted themselves when they were dealing with their hypothesizes.
Galileo's Hypothesis
Galileo was well known for standing up for what he believed in and
pushing the things he wanted. He was constantly writing letters and engaging in
debates over the issue of Copernicanism. Galileo's entire reason for doing this
was to make the scientific and religious communities accept that Copernicanism
was actually a fact and that there was enough proof to believe it. One example
of .....

Genetically Altered Foods
Number of words: 528 - Number of pages: 2.... is maize, which was
altered to an extent. The development was done by a company known to be Swiss,
called "Ciba-Geiby". That which was debated dealt with the Advisory Committee
on Novel Foods and Processes (ACNFP) stating that "A gene resistant to the
antibiotic ampicillin used in an early stage of the developmental process, could
theoretically be passed to man via bacteria lodged in the gut of animals which
eat the maize unprocessed (559)". In response to this attack, the company said
that there would need to be a great amount of events that would have to take
place. The transferring of .....

On the opposite end the northern hemisphere consists of a wider variety of geological features, but is obviously smoother and much younger. There are large volcanoes, a great rift valley, and a variety of channels.
Volcanism is a geological process that occurs on Earth today, and has on many planetary bodies throughout the history of the solar system. No volcanism is occurring on the surface of Mars today. In the past, however, volcanism was one of the main forces creating and reshaping the surface of the planet. A .....
