Experiement 9 Melodi Hay Tuesday 2-3:50pm October 27, 2014 Purpose: The purpose of the experiment is to study the laws of reflection, refraction, and total internal reflection; to measure the focal lengths of the mirrors with convex and concave surfaces; and to measure the index of refraction of water. Theory: If a ray of light is incident on a flat surface: the angle of incidence a is the angle that the incident ray makes with respect to the normal, which is a line drawn perpendicular

services. One such company they contracted their services through was IProvo. IProvo was a public-private partnership located in Provo. The City of Provo constructed a fiber optic infrastructure that connected homes and business throughout the city as well as municipal, schools, etc. Provo city owned and maintained the fiber optic lines and equipment while privately owned companies, such as NuVont, Mstar and Veracity Communications, offered phone, internet and cable through IProvo’s network.

Trans-fatty acids can be harmful and extremely toxic to the liver because of the hydrogenated oils it is found in. they can also cause inflammation. Trans-fat enters the blood stream and can become hard and stiff; this can lead to atherosclerosis. Fiber, which is found in foods such as nuts, grains and beans, is an important part of a person’s diet for a few reasons. Not only does it help to make the person feel fuller, it also aids with the

to estimate the amount of slow and fast twitch fibers in each subject. Once repetitions 1-3 and 48-50 were recorded, the percentage of decline from the average of repetitions 1-3 to the average of repetitions 48-50 was recorded. Furthermore, the percentage of each subject’s fast twitch and slow twitch fibers were also determined. Table 1 shows the mean percent of all subjects’ fast twitch fibers was 37.40%, while the mean percent of slow twitch fibers was 62.60%. Before the subjects began the test

How to make a crab shell see-through 30 November 2011 Researchers in Japan have made a crab shell transparent. Then, using knowledge gained from this activity, they created a transparent nanocomposite sheet, incorporating powdered chitin from crab shells. The nanocomposite could have applications in devices that need a high light transmittance, such as flat panel displays. Scientists have previously used cellulose from plants and chitin to strengthen materials, giving biologically-inspired nanocomposites
