Scientific Method Cartoon 09/07-09/11



Summary
My assignment for this week (and part of last week) was to create a cartoon on the scientific method. We had to draw our own little people or characters using the scientific method to figure out their problem. For this assignment I decided that my characters question was going to be what dissolves faster in water M & Ms or Skittles. After my characters experiment he found out that skittles dissolved faster in room temperature water.

Backward-Looking

This week while I was doing my scientific method cartoon I had a few struggles. While drawing I was very stressed out because I wanted to maker it look the best it could be and I couldn't get work done because every time I did something I thought it could be better so I erased it and got nothing done. I fixed it by calming down and saying to my self I shouldn't care what other people thing as long I think I'm doing a good job.
Inward-Looking

Something that I found out about myself during this project is that I get very worked up or stressed out by little things like when I draw that I think I have to even all the little,little details right but I found out that's not true. I found out that even the little things around your character aren't perfect it's not the end of the world. I also found out that as long as you think what you did is good you shouldn't care about what other people think. The last thing I found out was that if you think your doing a bad job just ask your true friends to tell you what they think, I gone through this process before and if they also tell you it's bad just use that as motivation to make it better.
Outward-Looking:
In some ways I did my work like other people in my class. We all had to make our scientific method cartoon, come up with a problem for our characters, and have our toons solve it. In some other ways we did it differently such as every one had their own problem or at the most maybe there was a coincidence that two people did the same thing but most people had different problems.
Forward-Looking
One thing I would like to improve on when I ever will have to draw something like what we did here with our scientific method cartoon is to add better backgrounds to make it seem like this person is actually on earth on in the middle of a white blank spot.

Amedeo Avogadro - 5/27/18

Summary : Amedeo Avogadro was an Italian scientist who created what is now known as Avogadro's law. Known as a founder of the atomic-molecular theory, he was the first scientist to realize that elements could exist in the form of molecules rather than as individual atoms. His biggest contribution to science, Avogadro’s law, states that equal volumes of gasses under the same conditions of pressure and temperature will contain an equal number of molecules. Amedeo Avogadro was born on August 9th 1776 to Filippo Avogadro and Anna Maria Vercellone. Coming from a family of lawyers, Advogadro was guided to a legal career, and became a bachelor of jurisprudence in 1792. Despite a successful legal career; Avogadro has started private studies of mathematics and physics, which then he pursued full time. SP8 - Communicating Information : This week, I communicated information in the form of a wanted poster about a certain scientist. I decided to create a wanted poster about Amedeo

Roller Coaster Project Blog - 2/18/18

Summary : A roller coaster ride is a thrilling experience which involves a lot of physics. Part of the physics of a roller coaster is the physics of work and energy. The ride often begins as a chain and motor which exerts a force on the train of cars to lift the train to the top of a vary tall hill. Once the cars are lifted to the top of the hill, gravity takes over and the remainder of the ride is an experience in energy transformation. At the top of the hill, the cars possess a large amount of potential energy. Potential energy is dependent upon the mass of the object and the height of the object. As the cars descend the first drop they lose much of this potential energy in accord with their loss of height. The cars subsequently gain kinetic energy. Kinetic energy is dependent upon the mass of the object and the speed of the object. Therefore, their original potential energy is transformed into kinetic energy.

Wave Communication - 3/25/18

Summary : There are two types of signals, analog and digital. An analog signal changes in frequency and amplitude all the time in a way that matches the changes in the voice or music being transmitted. A digital signal has just two values, which we represent as 0 and 1. An analog signal varies in frequency and amplitude. A digital signal has two values, 0 and 1 (or ‘on’ and ‘off’). The signal is converted into a code using only the values 0 and 1. The signal becomes a stream of 0 and 1 values. These pulses are added to the electromagnetic wave and transmitted. The signal is received and then decoded to recover the original signal. Both analogue and digital signals can pick up unwanted signals that distort the original signal. Digital signals can be cleaned up in a process known as regeneration because each pulse must be a 0 or a 1, so other values can be removed. Analogue signals can be amplified, but the noise is amplified too. This is why digital signals give a
