MODELLING A NIEUPORT 11 IN 3D WITH BLENDER by KevJon This is my first tutorial and I thought I would share some of the knowledge I have gained on modelling aircraft in 3D. I’ve decided to do this tutorial with the free Blender software (2.45) so that anybody can have a go at it at without having to outlay lots of cash. The purpose of this tutorial is not to teach you how to use Blender (although I will give plenty of tips) but to show you how I go about modelling aircraft. The techniques I show

(a) Marks Let f ( x ) = x 3 + 5 x 2 + 17 x − 10. The equation f ( x ) = 0 has only one real root. 4 (i) Show that the root lies between 0 and 2. (ii) Use one application of the ‘halving the interval’ method to find a smaller interval containing the root. (iii) Which end of the smaller interval found in part (ii) is closer to the root? Briefly justify your answer. Consider the equation 4 x 3 + 6 x 2 − x − 30 = 0. One of the roots of this equation is equal to the sum of the other two

In “The problems of Philosophy” and “Meditations”, Bertrand Russell and Rene Descartes both doubts the ideas of perception and existence. In the book, Descartes built up his ideas by doubting the basic foundation of his knowledge. However, compare to Descartes, Russell focuses more on the object around him, like the rectangular table, rather than himself. In this paper, I will argue if their aim is successful by comparing the differences and similarities between them. My comparison will cover two

Descartes starts his first meditation by taking note of that there are numerous things which he assumes to be real but later he learned that they were not. This theory drives him to the stress that which of his different convention may be false. So he set out to tear down all his beliefs and to reconstruct them to scratch. For this, he needs significant agreements which basically cannot doubt. He needs the basic conventions for the foundation so that he could start building a new structure. For

Descartes was among the first people to start a new philosophical system which showcased a new freshness and innovativeness. This new system incorporated doubt at its center. In order to destroy his entire old system of beliefs, Descartes created doubt about as many of his previous beliefs as possible. Descartes wanted to find foundations on which he could build a new system of beliefs. His goal was to actively try to doubt everything in order to find something that he cannot doubt—something that

Descartes deduces from Meditation I: Of the Things That May be Doubted and Meditation II: Of the Nature of the Human Mind to argue the existence of God. From these works, he seeks to support his argument that because he has the ability to doubt, he therefore exists. He is a thing that can doubt or affirm, imagine, and perceive, which makes him imperfect, limited, and finite. His perceptions and ideas can only come from two sources, his own being or the state of another. According to Descartes, he

Searching for certainty in Descartes` implies reading critically as well. In Acts 17 we can see that people of Berea used to examine the Scriptures every day to make sure that what Paul taught to them were true. Descartes` method of searching for truth diligently to reach at a clear and certain knowledge could be obtained of all that is useful in life. As Ethiopians, we are blamed by some that we are not critical thinkers so that many people have laid their foundation on experiences and mere propositions

The so-called long Age of Enlightenment in Europe, stretching from the mid-17th century into the 1830s, engendered new political, economic and social ideals and generated knowledge across the arts and sciences. But part of its impetus was outside of Europe. Dorinda Outram likens the European Enlightenment to" a world drama of cross-cultural contact" that "triggered anxieties" for Europeans about the nature of being civilized (Outram, 2004). To the 17th century English philosopher John Locke, an early
