At Yale, students began to make up games to play with the tins, and started to call them “Frisbees”. The name stuck and tossing the tins around became popular at many East Coast colleges. Several years later, an inventor decided to recreate the Frisbee tin. He wanted to make it out
Water and Salt water sound similar, at first you would think that but as soon as you research either of them you’ll find that the only thing they have one thing in common water.

Sound-On-Disc: From Inception ‘til Death From the Kinetophone to the Vitaphone, the sound-on-disc format dominated the pioneering stage of sound in movies.

The picture projected was very small, sometimes half the size of a business card, and only showed shades of orange and red.

Self-Assessment and Reflection In the last seven weeks, I had an opportunity to look back and analyze the events that has shaped my life. This was a unique experience where I was emotionally comfortable enough to look back at life. I was able to objectively revisit many events that were often buried and too painful to face. I was free from the turmoil of emotional fears of failure, anger, regret and loneliness, which often clouded my perception. . I was able to dwell on many pleasant and

Among these are the following world’s firsts: 1. 1967—first automatic zip code reader 2. 1970—first color video phone 3. 1986—first laptop personal computers 4. 1995—developed high-density optical disc, DVD They have remained successful for many years because of their ability to stay on top of the world of technology. This is no small feat. Numerous companies have been lost because of a rapidly changing technology market that most were unable
any other number of discs (1, 2, 3, etc) of decreasing radii from 1 of 3 poles to another pole (A, B, C). You are only able to move one disc at a time and cannot place a larger disc on top of a smaller disc. You must also complete this task in the smallest amount of moves possible. Our ultimate task was to complete the game with 4 discs and then 5 discs using the smallest amount of moves, then to find a formula to find the smallest amount of moves for any number of discs. Simple cases:

solution, the greater the movement of water due to osmosis and therefore the greater the change in weight. Fair testing ============ Firstly, we are using six discs in each measuring beaker. This is to make sure that when cutting up the potato cylinder into 0.5cm discs we know that the surface area of 1 potato disc will measure out the surface area of another. Then, we are going to leave them for 24 hours. This is to make sure that all the Osmosis that is going to happen will happen
to a shaft, which spins a disc. The disc has holes in it and next to the disc is an infrared LED and an infrared sensor. As the disc spins the hole in the disc breaks the beams of light generated by the LED and the sensor picks up these pulses of light. The speed of the pulses is related to how far the mouse has travelled. If the disc spins faster the further the mouse would have travelled. A diagram below shows one of these discs.

necessary to be on a computer at that young of an age learning the information that parents should be teaching? Try to think ahead a decade latter to a college algebra course. The only resources are a computer and a poorly designed math program on compact disc. Confusion arises, you do not understand how to do functions and the computer’s method is just not working. All that is wanted is a straight answer from a real teacher, and the computer cannot possibly offer that. For both the child and the college

He traveled the one mile distance between himself and the object to discover that it wasn’t a plane at all, but rather a “metallic disc-shaped object about 25 or 30 feet across. As he stood, looking at the object, a group of archeological students arrived from the opposite direction. They were all about the wreckage and soon discovered the bodies of apparently dead aliens.

He teamed with another scientist, Piet Kramer, who together introduced the first color videodisc prototype in 1972. Sony teamed up with Philips on the creation of the compact disc, and together they were able to develop a standard, universal compact disc to hold audio information
