Knot Theory and Quantitative Literacy
[ send me this paper ]
A 5 page paper discussing mathematical knot theory and how it can be used to illustrate quantitative literacy. A mathematical researcher noticed that the equations derived in the complex area of knot investigation were closely aligned with many of the standard equations of quantum physics. Further investigation reveals applicability of knot theory to the action of replicating DNA molecules, but the initial realization of knot theory's equations' similarities with other disciplines was possible only under quantitative literacy, in which the individual is able to draw conclusions in one area using information from another. It normally is explained within the framework of being able to apply arithmetic lessons to daily life, such as determining an appropriate restaurant tip. Bibliography lists 7 sources.

Laplacian and Quantum Determinism
[ send me this paper ]
A 14 page research paper that examines Laplacian and quantum determinism, how one led into the other and what these theoretical perspectives mean. The writer also examines how quantum determinism is effected by black hole data and theories. Bibliography lists 10 sources.

Lenz's Law
[ send me this paper ]
This law of physics is discussed in a 5 page general overview. A biography of its author, Heinrich F. E. Lenz, precedes the description of the law itself. Some information about Michael Faraday-- Lenz's mentor, is included as well. Applications of Lenz's law are provided. Bibliography lists 5 sources.

MARTIN FLEISCHMANN AND STANLEY PONS WERE QUALIFIED SCIENTISTS WORKING IN A UNIVERSITY LAB WHEN THEY DISCOVERED COLD FUSION. SO WHY DID MOST SCIENTISTS TREAT COLD FUSION AS AN ‘OUTSIDER’ SCIENCE?
[ send me this paper ]
This 6 page paper gives an overview of the cold fusion fallout and the scientists who discovered it. Bibliography lists 8 sources.

Mass, Acceleration, and the Importance of Newton's Constant for Gravitational Force
[ send me this paper ]
A 5 page exploration of the hypothesis that " The mass of an object has no effect on the acceleration of a falling object". The author explores this hypothesis in relation to Newton's Constant for Gravitational force and pulls projects from the literature to illustrate that relationship. Bibliography lists 4 sources.
Filename: PPmass.rtf
MECHANICAL ENGINEERING CONCEPTS
[ send me this paper ]
This paper defines some mechanical engineering concepts including hydraulics, pressure vessels and heating loads. Bibliography lists 4 sources.

Mercury: The Hottest Planet?
[ send me this paper ]
A 3 page overview of the reasons behind the common misperception that Mercury is the hottest planet in its solar system because of its proximity to the Sun. This paper points out the recent discovery of planets which are even closer to the Sun as well as the fact that Venus (which is further from the Sun than Mercury) is actually hotter. The reason for that phenomenon is explained. Bibliography lists 3 sources.
