May Day Eve - Nick Joaquin by: Marjorie Torres
"May Day Eve" is a short story written by Filipino National Artist Nick Joaquin. Written after World War II, it became one of Joaquin's “signature stories” that became a classic in Philippine literature in English. Together with Joaquin's other stories like The Mass of St. Sylvester, Doña Jeronima and Candido’s Apocalypse, May Day Eve utilized the theme of "magic realism" long before the genre was made a trend in Latin American novels. Published in 1947, it is a story originally intended for adult readers, but has later become a required and important reading material for Filipino students.

The document discusses arguments around whether reducing carbon emissions will damage the economy. It notes that while some argue it may increase growth or damage the economy, unaddressed climate change poses severe economic risks. The best path is reducing fossil fuel use through renewable energy and efficiency. Failure by major emitters like the US to act could undermine international cooperation needed given climate change's global impacts. Recent data also shows that major economies have reduced emissions while economic growth continued, suggesting a transition need not harm economies and could provide new opportunities through innovation. A cap-and-trade system aims to control emissions but concerns remain about costs to businesses.

Charles law
Charles' Law describes how gases tend to expand when heated at a constant pressure. It states that the volume of a gas is directly proportional to its temperature. The document outlines an experiment using a cylinder with a piston immersed in water to demonstrate this law. It provides the equation that shows the relationship between the initial and final volumes and temperatures of a gas. The law is important because it explains why hot air balloons are able to rise by having less dense, expanded air than the surrounding cooler air.
Application of gases
The document discusses gas laws and provides examples of how they apply in everyday life. Boyle's law states that the pressure and volume of a gas are inversely proportional at constant temperature. Examples given include shaking a soda bottle and spraying aerosol cans. Charles' law explains how the volume of a gas increases with temperature. Examples are helium balloons and dented ping pong balls. Gay-Lussac's law says gas pressure rises proportionally with increasing temperature at constant volume, illustrated by firing bullets and burning tires. Avogadro's law concerns the direct relationship between gas volume and number of gas particles. Examples include projectiles, balloons, breathing, and baked goods rising.
The life of amedeo avogadro[1]
Amedeo Avogadro was born in 1776 in Turin, Italy into a family of lawyers. He received a doctorate of law but later became interested in mathematics and physics, teaching natural sciences and publishing papers on gases and molecules. Avogadro is best known for proposing Avogadro's law and hypothesis in 1811 that equal volumes of gases under the same conditions contain equal numbers of molecules, which helped establish the differences between atoms and molecules and led to the modern concept of the mole. He spent his career at the University of Turin, becoming the first chair of mathematical physics, and his work helped lay the foundation for atomic theory and determining atomic masses.

Here are the key steps to solve this problem using Charles' Law:
1) Convert temperatures to Kelvin:
T1 = 297.0 K
T2 = 216.5 K
2) Use the Charles' Law equation:
V1/T1 = V2/T2
3) Solve for V2:
V2 = V1 * T2/T1
= 20.0 L * 216.5 K/297.0 K
= 14.6 L
So the volume outside at -70°F would be 14.6 L.
Amedeo avogadro (Lisariel Murillo)
Amedeo Avogadro nació en 1776 en Turín, Italia, donde estudió derecho canónico pero se interesó más en las ciencias naturales. En 1809 obtuvo un puesto de profesor de filosofía y formuló la Ley de Avogadro en 1811, la cual establece que volúmenes iguales de gases contienen el mismo número de moléculas. Avogadro hizo contribuciones importantes a la comprensión atómica que son fundamentales para la química y física modernas.
Robert boyle
Robert Boyle was born in 1627 in Ireland to a wealthy family and received an elite education. He studied natural philosophy and helped form the Invisible College, a group of scientists that later became the Royal Society. Boyle made significant contributions to chemistry through his experiments and publications, including discovering gases, developing Boyle's Law about the inverse relationship between a gas's pressure and volume, and showing that compounds have different properties than their constituent elements. His scientific work helped establish the experimental method in chemistry and advance the professionalization of science.
Chapter 4.4(charles' law)
Charles' Law states that the volume of a gas is directly proportional to its absolute temperature when pressure is held constant. As temperature increases, the molecules move faster and push outward, increasing the volume. This relationship is expressed mathematically as V1/V2 = T1/T2, where V is volume and T is temperature measured on the Kelvin scale. Absolute zero is defined as 0K or -273°C, the lowest possible temperature.
BIO-VISION'S MULTIMEDIA CLASS - Charles law
Charles' Law states that the volume of a gas is directly proportional to its temperature when pressure is kept constant. Specifically, if the temperature of a gas doubles, its volume will also double as long as pressure remains unchanged. This relationship can be expressed as V1/T1 = V2/T2, where V is volume, T is temperature, and the subscripts 1 and 2 refer to two different temperatures. An experiment demonstrating Charles' Law involves cooling balloons filled with air in liquid nitrogen, causing the air volume to decrease as temperature decreases at constant pressure.

Jean-Jacques Rousseau Project
Jean-Jacques Rousseau was a French philosopher born in 1712 who developed important political and educational theories. He believed that humans in a state of nature are good but are corrupted by society. His major works examined the origins of inequality and proposed the social contract as the basis of legitimate political authority. He argued that the goal of education should be to allow students to develop naturally according to their interests. Rousseau faced criticism and exile for his controversial ideas and died in 1778.

Priestley & lavoisier 112
This document provides a summary of Antoine Lavoisier's contributions to chemistry, including:
1) Lavoisier disproved the theory of phlogiston through experiments showing that combustion reactions involve gases combining with oxygen rather than releasing phlogiston.
2) He established that water is a compound of hydrogen and oxygen by collecting and weighing the products of a combustion reaction.
3) Lavoisier is considered the founder of modern chemistry for his establishment of a system of chemical nomenclature and for listing the first table of chemical elements. He emphasized quantitative experiments and conservation of mass.
Women scientists brief biographies
Émilie du Châtelet was a French aristocrat and scientist in the 18th century who made significant contributions to physics and mathematics despite facing barriers as a woman. She educated herself, conducted experiments, translated and commented on Newton's Principia, discovered the relationship between energy and velocity, and published works on science. Her greatest achievement was completing a translation of and commentary on Newton's Principia just before her death at age 42 after working 18-hour days while pregnant with her fourth child. Her translation helped advance science in France.
Heraclitus, Pre-Socratic Philosopher, Inspiration for Stoics and Church Fathers
Heraclitus, Pre-Socratic Philosopher, Inspiration for Stoics and Church FathersReflections on Morality, Philosophy, and History
What can we learn from reflecting on the surviving fragments of Heraclitus, the Pre-Socratic Philosopher?
Many of his pithy sayings inspired the later Cynic and Stoic Philosophers, and the Church Fathers, including Clement of Alexandria and Hippolytus of Rome.
These sayings by Heraclitus include:
God is day and night, winter and summer, war and peace, plenty and hunger.
Life and death are the same; so are waking and sleeping, youth and age.
Man is called a baby by God, even as a child by man.
Asses prefer straw to gold.
All things are in a state of flux.
Man’s character is his fate.”

We also reflect on:
• How Heraclitus inspired St Clement of Alexanderia and St Hippolytus of Rome, and the Greek Stoic and moral philosophers including Porphyry, Plato, Aristotle, and Marcus Aurelius.
• How Heraclitus was born in Ephesus, a satrapy of the Persian Empire, about a hundred years before Socrates.
• His biography in the Lives of Eminent Philosophers by Diogenes of Laertius.
• How he was disdainful of Homer and Hesiod.
• How he thought fire was the primary element, among the classical elements of wind or air, water, earth, and fire.
• Whether the stories of the Genesis flood or the fire in the Book of Revelation were a reminder of these classical elements.
• How his philosophy reflected life in a warrior culture, with the ethos expressed in the Iliad and Odyssey by Homer.
• Comments by Frederick Copleston and Will Durant in their histories.
• Heraclitus speaks of the One as God, and also as Zeus.
• How stoic philosophers were henotheists rather than monotheists.

A.Strobridge-Women and Mathematics-Final-withwc
This document provides a history of women in mathematics from ancient times to the 18th century. It discusses prominent female mathematicians like Hypatia in 350 CE, the first known woman in mathematics, who made important discoveries but was ultimately killed due to her success and gender. During the Middle Ages, women were largely barred from education. A few notable mathematicians emerged during the Renaissance and Enlightenment, such as Laura Bassi and Maria Gaetana Agnesi in Italy, where women had slightly more access to education, though faced many social barriers. The document outlines the obstacles and discrimination women faced in being recognized for their mathematical accomplishments.
Blaise pascal
Blaise Pascal was a French mathematician, physicist, inventor, writer and Christian philosopher. He invented one of the first mechanical calculators called the pascaline and made contributions to developing hydrostatics and hydrodynamics. He discovered Pascal's law relating to the transmission of pressure in confined liquids. Pascal received an award of distinction and a programming language was later named after him. He was born in 1623 in France and died in 1662 also in France.

Essay Of Shakespeare
William Shakespeare was born in 1564 in Stratford-Upon-Avon to a poor family and received little formal education. Some scholars argue that Edward de Vere, the 17th Earl of Oxford, was the true author of Shakespeare's plays and sonnets due to de Vere's wealth of knowledge and experiences that are reflected in the works. De Vere received an elite education from private tutors as a child and traveled extensively in Italy, exposing him to literature, art, architecture, law, and aristocratic life in a way that Shakespeare could not have experienced. While no definitive proof exists, de Vere's background and life align more closely with the knowledge and perspectives demonstrated by the author of the Shakespearean works than

The global energy transition is placing new and unprecedented demands on Distribution System Operators (DSOs). Alongside upgrades to grid capacity, processes such as digitization, capacity optimization, and congestion management are becoming vital for delivering reliable services.
Power Grid Model is an open source project from Linux Foundation Energy and provides a calculation engine that is increasingly essential for DSOs. It offers a standards-based foundation enabling real-time power systems analysis, simulations of electrical power grids, and sophisticated what-if analysis. In addition, it enables in-depth studies and analysis of the electrical power grid’s behavior and performance. This comprehensive model incorporates essential factors such as power generation capacity, electrical losses, voltage levels, power flows, and system stability.
Power Grid Model is currently being applied in a wide variety of use cases, including grid planning, expansion, reliability, and congestion studies. It can also help in analyzing the impact of renewable energy integration, assessing the effects of disturbances or faults, and developing strategies for grid control and optimization.

Jaques Charles
- 2. Early Life Jacques Charles was born November 12, 1746 in France Jacques was the only child of his parents Jacques' education consisted of basic arithmetic , and no science at all Other than this almost nothing is known about his earlier years
- 3. Mid-life Jacques married a creole woman, Julie Françoise Bouchaud des Hérettes, who was 37 years younger than himself Many historians believe that his marriage was a cover up for his homosexual relationship with the poet, Alphonse de Lamartine
- 4. Late-Life In 1785 Charles became a professor at the French Académie des Sciences without having any formal science education himself Jacques Charles outlived his wife, and later died himself April 7, 1823 in Paris Without Charles's contributions, the Hindenburg would not have even existed, so that accident would not have occurred, and we wouldn't have one-way valve, or at least until someone else came up for the idea after Charles did.
- 5. Contribution to the Scientific Community Most notably Jacques Charles is known for the Hydrogen balloon which he built with the Robert Brothers. Jacques originally got the idea for using hydrogen gas as a lifting agent after intensive study of Boyle's Law, previous to the use of hydrogen gas, hot air was used to make balloons fly
- 6. Contributions (cont.) Charles also is known for the invention of the gas valve, which he used on his hydrogen balloons, the hydrometer, reflection goniometer, improved the heilostat and the arometer. Charles also confirmed Benjamin Franklin's electrical experiments. Charles is also responsible for Charles's Law, but did not publish it, it was published by Joseph Gay-Lussac in 1802, and Joseph named it in Charles's honor
