Prior to the lab component a brief presentation is given and questions are asked (e.g. "When you lose weight, where does it go? Literally, where is the mass you lost?") to help students understand the chemistry of the breakdown of fat stores with inhaled oxygen and subsequent carbon ...
Some people think history has nothing or little to tell us. Others believe that studying the past history can help us better understand the present. Discuss both views and give your own opinion. Give reasons for your answer and include any relevant examples from your own knowledge or experience...
The word ‘quantum’ in physics is not an adjective that would describe a certain entity. Instead, quantum actually comes from the word ‘quantized.’ In the 1900s, it was discovered that the energy of micro-scale systems (a collection of molecules, atoms, electrons bound to a metal, etc....

But if the capillary action is strong enough to overcome gravity and draw the water up, it would also prevent it from falling back into the bowl.但是如果毛细作用足够强大，可以克服重力，把水吸上来，它也可以防止水落回碗里。Thenthereareversionswithmagnets,likethissetoframps.还有带磁铁的版本，比如...
There's zero drag because the acceleration pattern at the front of the cylinder is the exact opposite of the acceleration at the back. It takes high pressure to turn those flows, but the forces on the front and rear of the cylinder are equal and opposite, so the net drag force is zero...
“It would be great to invite a famous female scientist to school. Someone we could relate to and ask for advice,” a 16-year-old in Ireland remarked; while a 15-year-old in France believed “practical examples of what I have learned in physics help me better understand what I’m stud...
Natural language processing(NLP) is the ability of computers to analyze, understand and generate human language, including speech. The next stage of NLP is natural language interaction, which allows humans to communicate with computers using normal, everyday language to perform tasks. ...
Male professor: OK, so today we're going to talk about the Arctic, ozone depletion, and… snowflakes. And it's all related! Let's start with snowflakes. Now, I find snowflakes fascinating. To even begin to understand them, you need to understand physics, chemistry, and mathematics. Even...
As well as learning the tools, techniques and frameworks for leading projects, students “will also understand and manage the people, processes, communication and financial aspects of the project,” he says. Some business schools offer MBA specializati...
