Properties and Uses of Steel Beams
[ send me this paper ]
A 7 page overview of steel beam
used and selection criteria. General uses examined are applications in auto making; bridge
construction and repair; and in building construction. Different properties are used in each
of these broad applications, and the steel industry continues searching for greater
alterations preserving steel's strength while providing less mass. Includes an appendix
with 2 tables. Bibliography lists 7 sources.

Quantum Mechanics
[ send me this paper ]
A 6 page paper that provides an overview of the progression from classical mechanics to quantum mechanics. This paper begins with the developments of Max Planck and considers a number of major theories, including Einstein's theory of relativity, and their application for quantum theory. Bibliography lists 10 sources.

Radioactive Physics: Discovery and Application
[ send me this paper ]
An 8 page overview of the discovery and importance of radioactive physics. Emphasizes that this
discovery that alpha, beta, and gamma rays have unique qualities has resulted in the application of that knowledge in a diversity of applications,
one of the most interesting of which is analytical techniques found in geoarchaeology. Bibliography lists 3 sources.

Revolutions In Physics
[ send me this paper ]
5 pages in length. The manner by which ideas of Ernst Mach, Henri Poincare, Albert Einstein and Werner Heisenberg represent a revolution in physics becomes significantly clear when one examines the extent to which science has modified human existence, particularly when compared with Newtonian physics from the previous century. Understanding each man's unique contributions provides for the student to gain a better perspective upon just how much of an impact their respective discoveries had upon the entire global population. Bibliography lists 4 sources.

ROBERT GODDARD AND ROCKETS
[ send me this paper ]
This 6-page paper examines the life and biography of scientist Robert Goddard, and how his studies in rocketry during the early 20th century ultimately led to the success of the U.S. space program. Also touched on is how Germany used Goddard's theories to invent the V-2 rocket, the forerunner of the rockets that eventually landed the Apollo spacecrafts on the moon. Bibliography lists 7 sources.

Rockets and Newton's Second Law of Motion
[ send me this paper ]
A 5 page paper discussing the
operation of a rocket as proof for Newton's second law, f = ma, and also briefly discusses Mach's
ability to condense all of Newton's three laws of motion into a single one. All of Newton's laws of
motion - or Mach's single derivation - come into play with the launch and operation of a rocket.
The very action of a rocket can be said to prove Newton's second law. Bibliography lists 7
sources.

Science and the Koran
[ send me this paper ]
This 22 page paper examines the Koran, or Qur'an and the science that is presented in the text. The paper argues that this religious text presents a large amount of scientific fact before the knowledge existed to prove the claims. Much of the fact could not be understood for many centuries until science caught up with the writing. This paper considers aspects of embryology and human development as well as astrology, cosmology and physics, including the creation and big bang theory, as well as the existence of black holes. The discussion includes consideration of the translation and context of the text as well as the way that it may, or may not be seen accurate with today's scientific knowledge. The bibliography cites 10 sources.
