1. Compare/contrast the histories of the Soviet and American space programs,
Some of this material is classified still (even the name of the Soviet Chiéf
Designer, Sergei Pavolovich Korolev,
was secret until after his 1966 death)
He and Wernher yon Braun on the US side both had many predecessors in the rocket* clubs and in the military, and,
of course, very many associates and successors
(40 points) The third country to launch from its own territory was France in 1965
2. Write a newepaper, magazine, blog, or social media story that could conceivably appear 20, 50, or 100 yeare in the future (gay which!), describing something important that has been learned from, or happened, in space since 2022.

Spaced that explains the physics behind a phenomenon or technology that is of interest in the medical field. Some examples of topics to choose are MRI’s, ultrasounds, x-rays,…..
Some things you may consider including in your paper are (you don’t need to include all of these, the below is just to serve has a springboard to launch you in the right direction but I’ve bolded the most important ones):-
any pertinent history – who invented this technology? how was the phenomenon discovered?)
For what purpose is it used in medicine?
Explain the relevant physics concepts. What is the basic concept?
Include any equations or values that seem applicable
How specifically are these concepts applied to your chosen topic
Is there a quick and simple way you might explain this to a patient?
diagrams/pictures to help explain the concepts or how the technology works
Feel free to include any appropriate biology/medicine concepts if needed
Are there any common misconceptions about this technology/mechanism, that you can clear up based on your research into the topic and understanding of physics?
Maybe address some common concerns people might have about the use of this technology.
Is any research being done to improve upon/understand your topic better?

Prompt: You are a doctor and one of your patients, 18-year-old Jane, states that she is plagued by nausea, thirst, and amenorrhea. Jane lacks energy and has difficulty concentrating, although indicates she has been eating and drinking regularly. Her urinary frequency is high and she looks underdeveloped for her age.
Based on these symptoms, choose one disease to diagnose Jane with:
1. Zollinger-Ellison syndrome
2. Fanconi syndrome
3. Swyer syndrome
Through this two-part discussion with your classmates, you will state your diagnosis, explain the normal anatomy of the system the disease impacts the most, explain how the disease disrupts this system, and your ideas for future research, treatment options, etc.
You will then respond to your classmates’ posts to create an interactive conversation involving debating the diseases, comparing evidence, adding detail, asking questions, brainstorming treatment ideas, etc.
Please remember that all of these diseases have merit so keep discussions friendly, or at least civil!
Initial Post (Worth up to 70 points)
• Length: 250-500 words
• 12pt font
• All sources (three required not including your textbook, which must also be cited if you use it) must be properly cited (see APA source citation below)
• State and explain your choice. When stating the evidence, consider the challenges that others may have to your evidence and how you could counter those respectful challenges.
APA Source Citation
You must use at least three reputable scientific references to support your post (not including your textbook- if you use your textbook, you must also cite it). Reputable sources= peer reviewed scientific journal articles, accredited websites, or books. Google, Wikipedia, etc. are not acceptable sources.

Please see the Inquiry LAB – Springs Document
First 2 poits are done , see the values captured in the lab , Here 5, 10,15 etc means the displacement and this should be X Axis, and the Data for White, Green & Red represents the Force for each of the strings
Here 5, 10 , 15 are in CM’s but we need X axis in Meterrs
Here Y is Force which is in Newtons
What is needed ?
1. From 3 bullet point we need your help
2. All the 3 graphs should be idrawn in the same Graph

Write an essay describing a new and original musical instrument that you envision. This instrument
cannot be something you
have seen before or found on the web, but instead it must be something that
you have imagined completely on your own. The
instrument can be of any type, but it must be tuned to
the Western scale with a compass of at least one octave.
The essay
describing your instrument should be written clearly and cohesively. Do not merely make a list
addressing the required topics.
The essay must be well written, transitions should be smooth, and the
grammar should be flawless.
You can use any source you wish to help you, but the ideas and writing must me your own. You must
cite any sources besides your textthat you use. All
sources must be cited using the APA style.
Your essay should be word processed using 12-point type, double spaced with 1”
margins. There is no
minimum page count, but it is difficult to imagine an essay that addresses all the required aspects in less
than about 8 – 10 pages.
Your essay describing this instrument will be in three parts, which you should identify by subtitle in your
final paper:
(1) Planning
– Make a sketch of the instrument, either made by hand and scanned or made in a drawing program.
Multiple views may be necessary depending on your design. Make sure it is neat and it makes clear what
the instrument will look like.
– Identify
the pitchesthe instrument will play.
– Explain the origins of the instrument. Why did you decide on this type of instrument?
Describe the
history of the instrument. What are some similar instruments upon which you based the design? Is there
a clear
evolution to your instrument? If so, trace the evolution. It will be highly unlikely that this is a pure
creation and has no
evolutionary aspects, but if it is you must explain why it is different from every
other instrument. You must make an argument for the originality of your instrument. What can you say
to defend your originality to a skeptic?
– Include a discussion of the
methodology you used in designing your instrument. What series of steps
did you take to ensure that your design is successful? What problems were addressed and what
calculations weremade? Are there any issues that cannot be addressed until the
building process
begins?
(2) Execution
– Identify the oscillator(s) and resonator(s) of the instrument. Use your knowledge of
acoustics to
calculate the sizes of the oscillator(s) and resonator(s). Show your calculations and explain them using
words as
well as equations. Identify all the lengths, diameters and widths involved. If your instrument
involves strings, estimate the
necessary tension on the string and discuss how your instrument is
designed to withstand this tension. Clearly state all
your assumptions in performing these calculations.
– Don’t forget to include some method of tuning the instrument.
– Discuss
how accurate you think your calculations are and how you might change the design during the
process of building to account for inaccuracies.
(3) Reflection
– Discuss how you think the instrument will sound. What will the spectrum look like? What methods are
available
to change the timbre?
– Is it conceivable that someone could actually build this instrument? In what context will it be played?
Will someone need to write new music for this instrument, or can it be incorporated into the existing
repertoire?
– What will you
name
your instrument and why did you select that name?
– What have you learned? What would you do differently if you were to
design another instrument?
– Include an assessment of the effect your instrument could have on the development of music if
it were
actually built and used.
