Unbroken, directed and produced by Angelina Jolie, is the true story of Louis Zamperini and his fight for survival over the Pacific. Unbroken received a pg-13 rating for war violence, sequences of brutality, and brief language. Some of the writers included Laura Hillenbrand, the author of the book, Ethan and Joel Coen, Richard LaGravanese William Nicholson. Unbroken was officially released December 25, 2014. Unbroken is a phenomenal work of production because of its experienced director and producers

C.E.R, How Does The Magnet Cannon Work? - Jack McWilliams The contact force from ball ‘d’ pushes ball ‘e’ to fire, which causes the magnet cannon to fire. In our physics unit, we worked with magnet cannons and free - body diagrams. A magnet cannon is a chain of metal balls that are all connected to the magnet while ball ‘a’ shoots at the magnet which makes ball ‘e’ shoot out with a huge amount of force. We used a slow motion camera to experiment what happens to the rest of the balls when ball ‘a’

“Are you guys twins?” “How does it feel to have a twin” “Can you read Each other’s minds?” Questions a twin is used to hearing daily. Who wants to talk about being a twin all day? No one . For decades twins have been stereotyped. Society is so fascinated by twins due to them have being so rare “only about two percent of births resulted in twins just a couple of decades ago (OSDELL)”. Although people may have created an image of twins and how they're “supposed to be” they are mistaken in some ways

habitats. Once cells have reached their preferred microhabitat they would presumably stop swimming and adhere to sediment particles until conditions changed.” (Bazylinski). Magnetotaxis refers to the behavior of bacteria as they move along magnetic field lines. MTB are microorganisms that belong to a heterogeneous group of gram-negative bacteria and are a diverse group of aquatic

Christopher Brown Class 011-14H 23 Oct. 2014 The Split On 17 November 1775, Colonel Henry Knox was recognized as the “Colonel of the Regiment of Artillery” by Continental congress. On this day, Artillery as a whole was born. Even though Field Artillery and Air Defense Artillery are two separate branches now, both inherit Artillery traditions.The roots of the Artillery branch insignia goes as far back as 1834 in which the insignia that we have now was just two gold cannons were crossed over

demonstrate how maglev trains work with electromagnets. We will provide information about the history of early electromagnets. We will also provide information on the locomotion process, which is done through the generation of an electromagnet field by the rotor around the stationary magnet causing the torque from the magnet to pull or push it [1]. The paper will describe how each part of the electromagnet works. There are projects that we will discuss that helped further the development

There are two types of magnetic forces; push and pull. A magnetic field is the region around a magnet where the magnetic force works. The ends of a magnet are called poles. Like poles repel and unlike/opposite poles attract. The term ferromagnetic refers to the ability of a material to be magnetised. Magnets attract materials containing iron. Steel is a compound of iron with other metals. Therefore iron and steel are said to be ferromagnetic. There are two types of magnets; permanent and temporary

Magnetic levitation (maglev) is a relatively new transportation technology in which noncontacting vehicles travel safely at speeds of 250 to 300 miles-per-hour or higher while suspended, guided, and propelled above a guideway by magnetic fields. The guideway is the physical structure along which maglev vehicles are levitated. Various guideway configurations, e.g., T-shaped, U-shaped, Y-shaped, and box-beam, made of steel, concrete, or aluminum, have been proposed. Figure 1 depicts the three primary

the current using the first circuit thus creating an electromagnetic..). So, if we turn on the first part of the circuit which allows the current to flow and consequently, electromagnet is produced in the circuit which produces a magnetic field around it - This electromagnet attracts the armature coil towards itself thus completing the circuit. Thus, the circuit is now completed and current flows through the entire circuit. Of course, if we want to simply stop the circuit at any time, we

They come from gigantic explosions on the sun, which sends streams of charged protons and electrons speeding towards Earth with a velocity of 200 million miles per hour. When these particles reach Earth’s magnetic field, they accelerate to about 134 million miles per hour then they are driven down towards the Polar
