This document discusses theories for crater formation on Earth and provides guidance for an experiment to investigate the relationship between impact speed and crater size. It notes that craters could be formed either by volcanic explosions or asteroids hitting the Earth. The experiment aims to study how crater depth or radius changes with the height, and therefore speed, of an impact. It provides equations relating impact energy and velocity to help analyze the results and advises plotting data to investigate relationships between energy or velocity and crater size.

This study assessed the accuracy of slope and aspect measurements from NASA's SRTM and ASTER satellite instruments compared to field data in Santa Fe, Panama. The researchers found that SRTM more accurately measured slope overall at a 30 meter resolution, though it struggled with dense vegetation. ASTER may be better suited for coarser 90 meter resolution modeling. The findings help improve landslide susceptibility modeling by identifying discrepancies between satellite and field data.
Project 1
This document analyzes the relationship between the mass and latitude of landing of meteorites found on Earth using NASA data. The analysis finds no correlation between the two variables. A scatter plot shows banding in the latitude data but no relationship to mass. Tables of correlation, regression, and normality tests all show no significant relationship between meteorite mass and latitude.

Gravity lesson
1) Gravity is an attractive force that pulls objects towards the center of massive bodies like the Earth.
2) Sir Isaac Newton discovered gravity through his observations of apples falling from trees and was able to mathematically explain gravity.
3) The strength of gravity varies on different planets, with larger planets like Jupiter having stronger gravitational pull than smaller planets like Pluto.
Öncel Akademi: İstatistiksel Sismoloji
1) The document discusses different statistical distributions that can be used to model earthquake magnitude, including the pure power law, truncated power law, exponential taper models, and extreme value theory distributions.
2) It reviews the history of statistical modeling of earthquake magnitudes dating back to the 1930s and highlights different approaches researchers have taken over time to characterize the tail of the magnitude distribution.
3) The author expresses a wish to develop a model that recovers the power law in the body, ensures finite first moment, allows for a "soft" cutoff, integrates hierarchical data sets, and fully characterizes uncertainties through Bayesian Monte Carlo methods.
General/Notes 7.1
This document discusses Newton's law of universal gravitation and the development of models of the universe. It explains that Kepler analyzed Brahe's astronomical data and discovered that planets orbit the sun in ellipses. Newton then formulated his law of universal gravitation, which states that every object in the universe attracts every other object with a force proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them. The document provides examples of applying this law and gives homework problems.
Gravity - Rate of Fall - Graphing Gravity
Gravity is the force that keeps Earth and other large celestial bodies in orbit around the Sun. Sir Isaac Newton first hypothesized that the same force of gravity that causes apples to fall to the ground also causes the Moon to orbit Earth. Gravity is caused by the bending of spacetime due to mass. More massive objects cause greater bending. This bending is what we perceive as the force of gravity. Gravity depends on the masses of the interacting objects and the distance between them - the greater the masses and the closer the distance, the stronger the gravitational force. All objects fall at the same rate in a vacuum where air resistance is not a factor.

The universe & mathematical cosmology
The document discusses mathematical cosmology and modeling of the universe. It begins by outlining fundamental questions about the universe's origins and evolution. The two main aspects of cosmology are theoretical, based on mathematics, and observational, based on physics. The Big Bang theory is the most widely accepted scientific theory describing the expanding universe. Mathematical models of the universe are constructed using general relativity and by specifying the geometry and matter content. The Lambda-CDM model provides the current standard framework, though other models also aim to explain the observed late-time acceleration of the universe's expansion.
Applications Of Computer Science in Astronomy
In the document, the following points are made about the use of computers in astronomy:
1) Automated observatories like the Hubble Space Telescope use algorithms to select targets and schedule observations in order to efficiently observe many astronomical objects.
2) Citizen science projects like Zooniverse classify large amounts of astronomical data by crowdsourcing classifications to volunteers in order to help researchers study more data than possible otherwise.
3) Simulations of astronomical phenomena that are difficult to observe like stellar collisions are used to study and confirm hypotheses, with simulations becoming more accurate as computational capabilities increase.
Practical STEM -- How Big? How Far? How Wide?
The document discusses integrating STEM concepts through modeling lunar impact craters. It describes having students measure and compare the diameter, depth, and ejecta of craters formed by dropping impactors from increasing heights. Students will approximate the area and volume of classroom craters, calculate the scale of lunar craters, and observe how size, mass and angle of impact affect crater area and volume. The document also discusses measuring irregular shapes and scaling lunar images.

Unraveling Earthquake Dynamics Through Extreme-Scale Multi-Physics Simulations
ALICE GABRIEL (LUDWIG MAXIMILIAN UNIVERSITY OF MUNICH, GERMANY)
Earthquakes are highly non-linear multiscale problems, encapsulating geometry and rheology of faults within the Earth’s crust torn apart by propagating shear fracture and emanating seismic wave radiation.
This talk will focus on using physics-based scenarios, modern numerical methods and hardware specific optimizations to shed light on the dynamics, and severity, of earthquake behaviour. It will present the largest-scale dynamic earthquake rupture simulation to date, which models the 2004 Sumatra-Andaman event - an unexpected subduction zone earthquake which generated a rupture of over 1,500 km in length within the ocean floor followed by a series of devastating tsunamis.
The core components of the simulation software will be described, highlighting the benefits of strong collaborations between domain and computational scientists. Lastly, future directions in coupling the short-term elastodynamics phenomena to long-term tectonics and tsunami generation will be discussed.

The origin and fate of the universe (power point)
The document summarizes the origin and fate of the universe according to modern cosmological theories. It describes the hot big bang model and how inflation theory addresses some of its unanswered questions. Inflation posits that the early universe underwent rapid exponential expansion driven by a high-energy phase transition. This explains the large-scale uniformity of the cosmos. Current models still debate between the standard inflationary big bang model and the cyclic Steinhardt–Turok model. The search continues for a unified field theory incorporating quantum mechanics and general relativity.

Probability v3
This document discusses determinism and randomness in science. It begins by exploring deterministic theories in mechanics and astronomy. While these theories can accurately predict phenomena like planetary motions, more complex systems involving more than two interacting bodies can become unpredictable. The document then discusses the emergence of probability and randomness, from games of chance to Brownian motion and quantum theory. It is argued that even deterministic systems can exhibit complex, random behaviors, and at the quantum level the world is fundamentally random. In the end, both determinism and randomness are important for understanding natural phenomena.
Fue theory 4 lecture 3 - theory in relation to method
This document provides an overview of theory and its relationship to research methodology in architecture. It discusses several key points:
1. There are different types of theories, including scientific/positive theories that can be tested, and normative/design theories that provide guidance but cannot be proven.
2. Theories generally have six components: observations, logical connections, conclusions, links to empirical reality, assumptions, and testability.
3. Theories can be categorized as big/grand, medium-range, or small based on their scope. Polemical theories take opposing positions on design concepts.
4. Scientific theories aim to predict through identifying causal links, while design theories focus more on persuasion given their

The big bang theory
1) Newton originally proposed a static, infinite universe that had always existed. However, this did not explain why the night sky is dark.
2) The Big Bang theory emerged as the prevailing explanation for the origin and evolution of the universe. It proposes that the universe began in an extremely hot and dense state around 13.8 billion years ago and has been expanding ever since.
3) Evidence for the Big Bang includes Hubble's discovery of the expanding universe, the cosmic microwave background radiation, and the relative abundances of light elements. Inflation theory further explains properties of the early universe.
The Kalam Cosmological Argument for the Existence of God
Premise 1: Whatever begins to exist has a cause. Premise 2: The universe (all space, time, and matter) began to exist. Therefore: the universe has a cause. This cause is necessarily spaceless, timeless, and immaterial and probably personal — a.k.a. God

This report summarizes the procedures and results of an impact force lab experiment. The lab setup included wiring a strain gauge in a half-bridge configuration and using LabView to program sensors and collect data. Data was collected at angle increments of 5 degrees from 5 to 120 degrees and converted from strain to force. The experimental force values followed a sinusoidal trend when plotted against angle. The natural frequency was calculated and compared to the period of oscillation determined from raw waveform graphs, showing similar values between theoretical and experimental results. Some sources of error are noted, including noise in the raw waveform graphs and an incomplete angle range for the data.
Cosmic Histories and human perspectives: A journey through time and space
The document discusses the evolution of human understanding of the universe through history. It begins with early astronomy among ancient civilizations like Babylonians, Greeks, Indians, Egyptians and Chinese. It then outlines major developments including Copernicus' heliocentric model, Kepler's laws, Galileo's observations supporting Copernicus, Newton's laws of motion and gravity, and Einstein's theory of general relativity. The document also summarizes modern cosmological concepts like the expansion of the universe observed by Hubble, the hot dense early universe, formation of light elements in Big Bang nucleosynthesis, cosmic microwave background radiation, and evolution of the universe from the dark ages to the present epoch.
Earthquakes&seismology butler
This document provides an overview of earthquakes and seismology. It discusses key concepts like epicenters, focuses, seismic waves, magnitudes, and locating earthquakes. Examples are given of calculating earthquake location using travel time curves. Factors that influence earthquake intensity like magnitude, distance, geology, and building design are covered. The role of resonance and different building designs for earthquake resistance are also summarized. Animations and activities are referenced to illustrate key concepts.
Formation of Impact Craters in Sand
This document summarizes an experiment on the formation of impact craters in sand from dropping spherical ball bearings. The researchers measured the diameter of craters formed from ball bearings of varying mass dropped from increasing heights. They found the crater diameter was related to the total energy of the projectile by a power law equation. A second experiment used flour instead of sand to better simulate impacts on the lunar surface, which has a denser layer below the surface. Additional tests varied the impact angle of the ball bearings to determine the effect on crater diameter.

The big bang theory
1) Newton originally proposed a static, infinite universe that had always existed. However, this did not explain why the night sky is dark.
2) The Big Bang theory emerged as the prevailing explanation for the origin and evolution of the universe. It proposes that the universe began in an extremely hot and dense state around 13.8 billion years ago and has been expanding ever since.
3) Evidence for the Big Bang includes Hubble's discovery of the expanding universe, the cosmic microwave background radiation, and the relative abundances of light elements. Inflation theory further explains properties of the early universe.
The Kalam Cosmological Argument for the Existence of God
Premise 1: Whatever begins to exist has a cause. Premise 2: The universe (all space, time, and matter) began to exist. Therefore: the universe has a cause. This cause is necessarily spaceless, timeless, and immaterial and probably personal — a.k.a. God

This report summarizes the procedures and results of an impact force lab experiment. The lab setup included wiring a strain gauge in a half-bridge configuration and using LabView to program sensors and collect data. Data was collected at angle increments of 5 degrees from 5 to 120 degrees and converted from strain to force. The experimental force values followed a sinusoidal trend when plotted against angle. The natural frequency was calculated and compared to the period of oscillation determined from raw waveform graphs, showing similar values between theoretical and experimental results. Some sources of error are noted, including noise in the raw waveform graphs and an incomplete angle range for the data.
Cosmic Histories and human perspectives: A journey through time and space
The document discusses the evolution of human understanding of the universe through history. It begins with early astronomy among ancient civilizations like Babylonians, Greeks, Indians, Egyptians and Chinese.

Formation of Impact Craters in Sand
This document summarizes an experiment on the formation of impact craters in sand from dropping spherical ball bearings. The researchers measured the diameter of craters formed from ball bearings of varying mass dropped from increasing heights. They found the crater diameter was related to the total energy of the projectile by a power law equation. A second experiment used flour instead of sand to better simulate impacts on the lunar surface, which has a denser layer below the surface. Additional tests varied the impact angle of the ball bearings to determine the effect on crater diameter.

The document describes an experiment to determine the laws of reflection. [1] Students are instructed to use a mirror, light source, and protractor to measure the angle of incidence and reflection of light rays. [2] They will shine light at a mirror from various angles and measure the corresponding reflected angles to see if the angle of reflection equals the angle of incidence. [3] By plotting their results on a graph, students can evaluate whether the evidence supports the statement that the angle of reflection equals the angle of incidence.
6.3 giant mirror
A village in Italy installed a large mirror on a mountain opposite their village to direct sunlight into the village. The mirror helped brighten the village by reflecting sunlight into the dark areas between the mountains. Villagers could now grow crops that previously did not receive enough sunlight. The mirror demonstrated how reflected light can help illuminate dark spaces.

THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...
The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.

1.7 craters
- 1. 1.7 Craters: what makes them? January 29, 2015 There were two theories for this crater formation: either a volcano exploded OR an asteroid smashed into Earth. What evidence would you look for to prove or disprove either theory?
- 4. Aims • Revise KS3 ideas about the solar system • Review data and explanations for craters
- 5. Investigating crater impacts • You are going to investigate the effect on crater size with the height (and therefore the speed) of impact • INDEPENDENT VARIABLE (x): • DEPENDENT VARIABLE (y): Height / m Crater depth / m Crater radius / m
- 10. For people who want an A* • Height is really not the interesting factor but it’s the speed at which hits. • You may have come across the following equations: • You could then plot energy against crater size or even you are super smart the velocity against height. • You decide! velocityv heighth strengthfieldnalgravitatiog massm : 2 1 2 = = = = = = where mghE mvE p k
- 11. To do: • Decide what factor you will investigate (radius or depth) • Write a statement of your hypothesis (If I increase the height I drop the ball from, then…) • Decide what heights you will drop the asteroid from. • Drop the ball and record your data in a table • Draw a graph of the data • Write a statement of your conclusion (I found out that the higher the ball…) • Evaluate your experiement (To improve my results I would…)
