June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

Synthetic Fiber Construction in lab .pptxPavel ( NSTU)
Synthetic fiber production is a fascinating and complex field that blends chemistry, engineering, and environmental science. By understanding these aspects, students can gain a comprehensive view of synthetic fiber production, its impact on society and the environment, and the potential for future innovations. Synthetic fibers play a crucial role in modern society, impacting various aspects of daily life, industry, and the environment. ynthetic fibers are integral to modern life, offering a range of benefits from cost-effectiveness and versatility to innovative applications and performance characteristics. While they pose environmental challenges, ongoing research and development aim to create more sustainable and eco-friendly alternatives. Understanding the importance of synthetic fibers helps in appreciating their role in the economy, industry, and daily life, while also emphasizing the need for sustainable practices and innovation.

Acetabularia Information For Class 9 .docxvaibhavrinwa19
Acetabularia acetabulum is a single-celled green alga that in its vegetative state is morphologically differentiated into a basal rhizoid and an axially elongated stalk, which bears whorls of branching hairs. The single diploid nucleus resides in the rhizoid.
4. Velocity is measured as:
a change in distance per
change in time
change in distance
change in time
What are some things you can think of that are
measured like this?
5. What are some examples of
objects that move at high
velocities?
220 mph
1600 mph
7. What are some examples of low
velocities?
50 yds/hr (.03 mph)
1.2 mph
8. What units would you use
to measure the velocity of
an object moving in this
classroom?
meters per second
m
s
Meters per second tells us how many meters
something can move in one second.

Converting Velocities
m/s into km/hr
“What kind of mileage does this get?”
m 1000 m/km
s 3600 seconds/hr
Just take the m/s multiply by 1000 and divide by 3600
11. What else can we know about an
object’s motion besides velocity?
•What if the object speeds up?
• What if the object slows down?
What if the object’s velocity changes?
12. Scientists have a special way to
measure a change in velocity:
Acceleration
Acceleration is a change in
velocity.
13. Visualizing Acceleration
• Here you can see how the ball
travels a further and further
distance each second.
• That is because its velocity is
continuing to increase.
14. • If you’re speeding up, you have
positive acceleration.
• If you’re slowing down, you have
negative acceleration.
15. Example:
You’re driving along in your car and
suddenly have to slam on your brakes for
a red light.
Negative or positive acceleration?
High or low acceleration?
17. Example:
You’re an astronaut waiting in your shuttle
for takeoff. Suddenly the rockets fire and
you’re on your way.
High or low positive or negative acceleration?
22. Example:
• You are at cruising speed on the highway.
You no longer feel any pressure against
the seat or are lurching forward.
• What is your acceleration?
23. Answer
Zero, because you are at constant velocity
That velocity can be fast, slow, or not
moving at all.
24. Challenge Question:
You throw a basketball up in
the air. It rises to a certain
height and then falls back
to earth.
Describe its acceleration
Hint: There are multiple steps
26. Answer
Then, as it rises, low negative acceleration, because it
begins to slow down slowly because of gravity.
27. Answer
At the top of the arch, it has zero acceleration, because it
briefly stops moving upward and has constant velocity.
28. Answer
As it begins to fall again, low positive acceleration,
because it speeds up slowly.
29. Answer
Finally, when you catch it, high negative acceleration
because it slows down very quickly in your hand.

34. Quick Review
• Velocity: speed of motion in a direction
• Acceleration: change in velocity
What causes an object’s
velocity to change?
35. • If you’re riding your bike and want to
speed up, what do you do?
• If you’re driving a car and
want to slow down,
what do you do?
• If you’re playing soccer and
want to move the ball,
what do you do?
36. Nothing will change speed unless
acted upon by a force.
If it’s sitting still, it will keep
sitting still.
If it’s moving fast, it will
keep moving fast.
37. Only a force can change the
velocity of an object.
• That force can act to accelerate it
NSF North Mississippi GK-8
38. Only a force can change the
velocity of an object.
• That force can act to decelerate it
39. Then why do things slow down?
• Flying balls slow down and
eventually stop because of
the force of gravity.
• Cars and bikes eventually
slow down and stop because
of the force of friction.
40. Then why do things slow down?
• In space with no friction and no
gravity, objects will keep going at the same
speed forever without a force to slow them
down or speed them up.
