    The Uncertainty principle In 1927, Werner Heisenberg was working at Bohr’s research institute in Copenhagen, Denmark. Neil Bohr and Heisenberg were working closely together on theoretical investigations of quantum theory and nature of physics. Heisenberg was left back at the centre alone when Bohr was away skiing. At this point, Heisenberg realized the limits of physics and physical reality. He realized that it in the act of observing, the observer somehow, manages to alter the reality. This observation

    network of resistors. The circuits were composed of a power supply, two DMMs, a circuit board, an SPST switch, and an assortment of known resistors along with one unknown resistor. We measured the current and voltage of the entire circuit as well as the potential drops across each resistor to determine the parameters of the circuit including the resistance, voltage, and current for each component. For this experiment we utilized varying forms of Ohm’s law (V=IR), rules for resistors in series (Rtotal=R1+R2+…)

  • Comparison Between The Danish Resistance Movement And Women Of Liberia

    Additionally, the women of the movement communicated directly with leaders demanding a negotiation to end the violence. This is different from the previous movements as the protesters and resistors fought directly against the oppressive regimes without prioritizing direct negotiations. In the case of the Danish resistors, it was dangerous to try and engage with the Nazi regime and much of the protest had to be done in secret. Following their action, Liberia’s leader was held accountable for his corruption

    part of this. It was so prevalent as it was safe. While the black nationalist movement wanted uprisal and revolt, the nonviolent resistors simply wanted everyone to get along and become equal through peaceful means. This called for African Americans to work with white Americans in order to create social change. The cooperation would be limited however, as nonviolent resistors would only work with whites who were willing to, in turn, help African Americans. This included boycotts, something that the black

  • Fluorescent Lamp Research Paper
