Rotation matrix Essays

The endolymph in the semi-circular canals moves at the opposite direction to the rotation of the body. The three axes the semi-circular canals can detect angular rotation are the anterior vertical, the posterior vertical and the horizontal planes. When angular rotation occurs in any of these planes, the endolymph in the semi-circular canals moves the opposite way to the body movement, causing the cupula to be moved and therefore the hair cells in the semi-circular canals will also be pushed in the

Anthony Smith 12//19/15 Marshall’s Crew Math High Dive Write Up Just things to keep in mind: – The radius of the Ferris wheel is 50 feet – The center of the Ferris wheel is 65 feet of the ground – The wheel makes one complete turn every 40 seconds at a counter clockwise direction. – The cart starts 240 feet to the left of the center (-240) – The cart travels at 15 feet per second – The platform he is standing on is at the 3 o’clock positions when the car starts to move The equation for his height

Many researchers are interested in the generation of angular momentum during turning dance movements. In a study on the pirouette en dehors, researchers found that “skilled dancers generate larger vertical angular momentum as the number of turns increases by predominantly increasing the rate of momentum generation” (Kim et al., 2014). “Angular momentum is generated when the dancer applies a torque about the vertical axis by pushing sideways in opposite directions with both feet” (Laws & Sugano, 2008)

For my essay, I will be analyzing and comparing the cultural representation of hyperreality from two films: Bladerunner (1982) directed by Ridley Scott and The Matrix (1999) directed by the Wachowskis. Both films are of the science fiction genre. The main reason I have chosen to compare these two particular films is because they share the common theme of figuring out what’s real and what’s not. Hyperreality is an over exaggeration of the real, which ultimately deems the replica as a fake “real”

The allegory of the cave first published in Platos Republic was retold in Cottingham text and discussed in Class. An allegory is a story used to reveal a hidden meaning. Plato’s hidden meaning revolves around reality, the perception of reality the perception of truth. Plato paints a picture of humans being captive in a cave, bound in a manner where that cannot move and can only see what is before them and what is before them is the cave wall. In this cave behind the prisoners is a great source of

science-fiction movie The Matrix, Plato’s “Allegory of the Cave”, and Golden-Globe award winning film The Truman Show all have the same underlying theme of escaping an artificial reality. “The Allegory of the Cave” is a dialogue that criticizes human perception. In the dialogue, prisoners draw a parallel between the dwellers in the cave who believe the shadows on the walls are real to humans who believe in perceptions based on empirical knowledge. In the movie, The Matrix “the matrix” is a computer engineered

The NEU alongside with SWAT gathered for a briefing for tonight take down. They went through all specifications from the extensive backup equipment installed in their unmarked surveillance van to implanting a mini video surveillance camera and recording conversation devices into Edith’s earrings. The team relied on Edith who’s the core of the undercover to dig out information and show proof of evidence to bring these drug traffickers down. Edith arrived at her destination dressing genuinely sexy

Manipulation is often used in books and stories of the horror genre. This technique is commonly used in the book Coraline by Neil Gaiman. Whether this is through the “other” characters or through the thoughts in Coraline’s mind, it is present. This piece of writing uses descriptions and figurative language that portrays the “other” world as it is darker and more frightening than our reality. In Coraline’s words from page 69 “It was so familiar --- that was what made it feel so truly strange”. An

After viewing the in class video clip on the Allegory of the Cave and watching the movie, The Matrix, I quickly noticed a similar relationship between the two. Both the Allegory of the Cave and The Matrix revolve around the question, “what is real?” The Allegory of the Cave is explained as prisoners chained up and facing a wall. All the prisoners can see is the wall. Behind them is a fire and a raised walkway where each day, many animals and people walk on. Their shapes show up on the wall in

The most evident similarities between the motion picture The Matrix, Plato’s Allegory of the Cave and Descartes’ Meditation is that these works question and inquires the truth of the World around us and raises doubt about the legitimacy of our feeling of recognition. In other words, all three pieces of work question what is real and what reality is. The Matrix is a film that goes up against the genuine and the part of a convoluted, fake digital reality. Before Mr. Anderson (Neo) revelation of

Introduction In this essay, I am going to analysis the film named “Cloverfield”, which was released on 18th January 2008 in North America. I will talk about the genre, key scenes, media institution, other media company, film marketing, marketing mix, media technology, audience, digital platforms, convergence and regulation. It was a PG13 film which mean parental guidance is required for children if they are under 13. It was directed by Matt Reeves and starring with Lizzy Caplan, Jessica Lucas, T

Comparing the three images together, two seem to be more closely alike through the animation. The Plato’s Cave seems to greatly contrast from the other two images. The “pyramid of capitalism” poster and closely resembles the first image due to vivid separation of people and their classes starting off with the ones in power on the top going down to the poor. In both the photos looking at them in a political way, you can right away assume as to what the images are representing which is capitalism.

The Matrix’s message is the same as Plato’s Cave Analogy: belief isn’t knowledge and opinion isn’t a fact. There is more to see than meets the eye. Plato’s story of the cave is an analogy. He explains reality through a story of several prisoners who have been chained since birth in a dark cave. These prisoners face a blank wall with a fire behind them and a low wall between the fire and the prisoners. They cannot turn their heads or move. All they see is the cave wall in front of them. On the cave

The Manipulator in Fiction Every good story has a character which uses manipulation to get their way hiding in the shadows. The manipulator character archetype is used as a type of antagonist in storytelling. These characters are known for making other do whatever they wish for, either by using their words or their actions. Manipulators are typically deceitful and are controlling others for their own benefit. The characters Iago from William Shakespeare's’ Othello, Tamlin from the A Court of Thorns

people have always been looking forward to for approximately 2000years now. According to the Christians, the narration is not any little fictional narrative that an author has come about, but it is believed to have happened in the real life story. The Matrix, just as the salvation story has a direction of the Savior depicted in it. It is a Christian movie that brings out the reality of fiction not forgetting to put out the best about every actor. The main character in the film is Neo, which in one way

unexamined life is a life not worth living” - Socrates. Both ‘The Matrix’ and Plato’s allegory of ‘The Cave’ develops a question of reality and how the world is perceived. This can be closely connected to one of the great Greek philosopher’s sayings where an “unexamined life is a life not worth living”. Socrates states this due to the increasing number of citizens who lived their lives without questioning the world around them. ‘The Matrix’ and Plato’s allegory explore how when the world is properly examined

Film analysis Benedikt Blomendahl The movies District 9 and Avatar are similar as they are both sci-fi movies with one major difference, the budget. Avatar is obviously the film with the better quality and has more planning behind it that district 9 but does that mean that it is really the better movie? District 9 features Wikus Van De Merwe, a bureaucrat in charge of facilitating the relocation program so that the local government can steal the technology from the aliens, referred to as "prawns"

considered to be the standards by which we measure our knowledge of reality. Each reading has similarities with one another. In Plato’s “The Allegory of the Cave”, Descartes “Meditation I of the things of which we may doubt” and in the movie “The Matrix” the authors are asking the question, “Is this
