.... same length, and the crests of these waves are all lined up, or in PHASE. The word Laser is an acronym for Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation. What does that mean? Basically a laser is a device which produces and then amplifies light waves and concentrates them into an intense penetrating beam. The principles of the laser (and it's cousin the maser) were established long before these devices were successfully developed. In 1916 Albert Einstein proposed stimulated emission, and other fundamental ideas were discussed by V.A. Fabrikant in 1940. These id .....

.... it got wet. Then it would split open. The Gutta percha was introduced in 1850 and was made of a rubberlike sap from the Malaysian sapdilla tree.

Easier to make, less expensive, and more durable, the gutta revolutionized golf. When golfers discovered that balls and nicks flew longer and straighter then new ones, manufactures began to give them a textured, even pattern surface. The most popular early pattern was the brambl .....

After that, it comes to Japan so Japanese is late at all and most manuals are written in English so it is easy to lean computer for people who speak English; however, most Japanese people who live in Japan cannot understand Engl .....

So clever are their disguises that you've probably never known you were being fooled by spiders impersonating ants, squirrels that look like shrews, worms copying sea anemones, and roaches imitating ladybugs. There are even animals that look like themselves, which can also be a form of impersonation. The phenomenon of mimicry, as it's called by biologists, was first noted in the mid-1800s by an English naturalist, Henry W. Bates. Watching butterflies in the forests of Brazil, Bates discovered that many members of the Peridae butterfly family did not look anything l .....


Microbursts
Number of pages: 5 | Number of words: 1333

.... there are two types of down drafts that are particularly hazardous to flight operations because of there severity and small size. Professor T. Fulita, an atmospheric scientist from the University of Chicago, coined the term downburst for a concentrated, sever downdraft that induces an outward burst of damaging winds at the ground. He also introduced the term microburst for a downburst with horizontal dimensions of 4km or less (Lester 11-4). Microbursts form by the same process that produce the more common and less intense down drafts; that is, by precipitation drag and .....

After attaching the spring balance, its hook was pulled and the reading on the scale and the direction of the pull at which the two forces (hanging mass) are “balanced.” “Balance” was determined. II. Results and Discussion Table 1. Time, distance, velocity and acceleration measurements for a marble. D .....

.... way for the intruders’ villages, towns, and cities. Once estab-lished the settlers needed more room for farms and bigger cities so again they pushed into the forest causing the Na-tive Americans and the wildlife to withdraw further into interior of the continent.
