...the sky blue? Have you ever wondered why our sky is blue? The molecules in our atmosphere are made up of about 78% nitrogen, 21% oxygen, .7% argon, and a small amount of trace gases. White light from our sun is made up of all the colors in the rainbow from red to violet. When the light hits our atmosphere the molecules scatter blue light more than red or green etc. so we see a blue sky! Let's do an experiment to see the effect of scattering, and some other properties of light. Get as many of the following materials as possible: A 1 liter beaker or 1 qt glass jar (a 12 oz glass will do), some milk, a laser pointer or other low power laser, a prism or diffraction grating and some lenses, and a lab notebook to record your observations. Fill the beaker with cold tap water and shine your laser through it. Mix 2-3 drops of milk into the water. Take the mixture into a dimly lit, or dark, room. Shine the laser through the side of the beaker and look through the top of the beaker, jar, or glass. What do you see? The mixture you made is called a colloidal suspension. Now shine the laser up through the side of the beaker toward the center of surface of the suspension. [Physics FAQ] - [Copyright] Original by Philip Gibbs May 1997. Why is the sky blue? A clear cloudless day-time sky is blue because molecules in the air scatter blue light from the sun more than they scatter red light. When we look towards the sun at sunset, we see red and orange colours because the blue light has...

...Combinations Sometimes it can be difficult to know which colors you should wear with that green shirt or that blue skirt... but there are some definite rules that govern which colors look best with one another. Of course, once you know the rules you can break them, but it's good to get the basics down first. See step 1 to get starting coordinating your outfits by color. Part 1 of 3: Knowing Your Colors 1. ------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------- 1 ------------------------------------------------- Use the color wheel. All the color wheel does is tell you how best to combine colors.There are particular color combinations in the color wheel that are particularly pleasing to the eye, called color harmonies. The basic primary colors of red, yellow, and blue are used to create the secondary colors. Tertiary colors are created by mixing primary and secondary colors together.[1] * There are warm colors and cool colors. Warm colors tend to be orange, red, yellow, etc. and cool colors are greens, blues, and purples. Mixing warm colors with warm colors and cool colors with cool colors can be a good way for a color coordination novice to get comfortable with the colors. * White, black, and grey are neutral colors (and are very important for properly coordinating clothing). * When a color is tinted that means that it's getting lighter (has white added to it) and when it is a shade it is getting darker (has...

...refer to him as a 'colourful personality', similarly the different colours are used to indicate human moods and attitudes: blue is associated with depression, white is likened with serenity, green with jealousy and red with rage. Colour is also used to relieve tension.

The power of colours cannot be denied, more so, as it is the soul instance of life on earth. Although sight and the human brain has helped in identifying colours and their delights, it's interesting to note what colours mean to us in totality. The power of colours and their meanings has been enlisted below. RED: More than half the globe loves this colour. We sure agree. Red is the second-most favorite colour on earth.

...colors affect our daily lives by giving off more energy, soothing affects, stimulate appetites, and sexual motivation. It was also reported that the color red as happy and blue as serene and dignified. (Jacobs & Suess, 1975, par. 2). In a study of questioning thirty males between the ages of fifteen to sixty what color bra they would like to see a girl of their dreams wearing in order to find out what colors are the most sexually stimulating? (Shpancer, 2013, par. 2). Out of thirty, fourteen chose black, four chose pink, red, blue, and white was only chosen by three. Grey and purple were each favored by someone once . There was also an experiment conducted to see what colors were connected with appetites. There was food coloring added to make eight different colored Jell-O. Out of fifteen people, seven chose red, pink and purple chosen by three a piece, as well as green and orange chosen each by one person. The color blue is either a calming or depressing color, depending on how someone is surrounded by it. Although this color is usually used as a pleasant sign, it is also associated with a cool, relaxing, and calm feeling. It increases a person’s clarity and creativity. Our autonomic nervous system has a direct effect toward the color blue. This helps humans stay calm and tends to be soothing. On the other hand dark blue is sedative and too much of this color can give off a depression feeling. Simply because there are...

...1. An urn contains five red balls and three yellow balls. Two balls are drawn from the urn at random, without replacement. (a) In this scenario, what is the experiment? What is the sample space? (b) What is the probability that the first ball drawn is red? (c) What is the probability that at least one of the two balls drawn is red? (d) What is the (conditional) probability that the second ball drawn is red, given that the first ball drawn is red? Solution. (a) The experiment is the drawing of two balls from the urn without replacement. The sample space is the set of possible outcomes, of which there are four: drawing two red balls; drawing two yellow balls; drawing a red ball first, and then a yellow ball; and drawing a yellow ball first, and then a red ball. One way to denote the sample space is in set notation, abbreviating the colors red and yellow: sample space = {RR, YY, RY, YR}. Note that these four outcomes are not equally likely. We can also represent the experiment and the possible outcomes in a probability tree diagram, as shown below. Note in particular the probabilities given for the second ball. For example, if the first ball is red, then four out of the remaining seven balls are red, so the probability that the second ball is red is 4/7 (and the probability that it is yellow is 3/7). On the other hand, if the first ball is yellow, then five out of the remaining seven balls are red, so the probability that the second ball is red is 5/7 (and the probability...

Interview #3 -------------------------------------------------------------------- pg. 18 – 19 Introduction The psychology of color as it relates to persuasion is one of the most interesting and most controversial aspects of marketing. Using the right colors to promote a business during a marketing and advertising campaign is extremely important. In fact, researchers have found that up to 90% of snap judgments made about products can be based on color alone. (Ciotti) This is because a color can represent many different energies, emotions, and feelings. Therefore, the colors you use can send either a positive or negative subconscious message to the customer, creating a good or bad perception of your business or your product. For...

...predilection to black thinking hat in the majority of western culture, it can lead to very destructive meetings. Even with clear shared objectives and good courtesy in any collaborative thinking activity there is a natural tendency for "spaghetti thinking" where one person is thinking about the benefits while another considers the facts and so on. The six hats process avoids this. Everyone considers and everyone looks in the same direction together. For example, a façade of a house (metaphorically speaking) and then the group will turn to the backyard. These can also be benifits, or the facts, or the problems, reducing distractions and supporting cross thought pollination. This is achieved because everyone will put on one hat, for example, the white hat together and then they will all put on the next hat, together. In this way, everyone present will think in the same way at the same time. The only exception is the conductor,...

Fulbright Scholars • 1st poem in Birthday Letters. • Personal, a ‘letter’ to plath. Personal pronoun unlike Hughes other poems – hughe’s rarely used 1st person. • Personal pronouns: “you,” “I,” “your,” “my” • Harsh “i” alliteration, “it,” – trying to pinpoint exact memories. • Questions: Could be a critisism of the public obsession with his life ie. He is asking US, or could be questioning his own hazy memory. • Conjectures – ability to tell the truth is limited by our own knowledge. • Alliteration “m” sounds: mumbling,confused, remembering. • Peach || biblical apple. ( symbolic of loss of innocence. • 1 stanza – stream of consciousness • The haziness of the memory gives the impression that hughes is being truthful, although gives the impression of incomplete or disjointed truths. Also allows hughes to utilise creative license. • Juxtaposition of initial haziness with final, clear, peach image. Precise image, if hughe’s can remember the peach he is being truthful about not recalling the photograph. • Appearance vs reality, as when hughe’s described plath’s appearance – “your veronica lake bang – not what it hid.” The picture presents one image but hughes “knows” the “truth.” • Photograph – photographs only show their subjects from the outside: appearance vs. Reality...

...Harsha Madala Professor Deborah Scally RHET 1302 10/26/2016 America Wants You War requires a lot of work. They require a lot of time, money and people. Because of that, countries need to recruit people to join their army. To do that, they have to run war campaigns that promote and encourage people to join the military. One of the best promotion ads in all of American history is the “I want you” poster that was created on July 6, 1916 by James Montgomery and it was used to promote world war one and world war two (loc.gov). This ad is really well known all the way from the white back ground with the red, white and blue boarder, to the depiction of Uncle Sam in the very center of the ad with his white beard and his face in an intense, almost angry stare while pointing straight at anyone who would happen to walk by. He is in white top hat completed with blue stars, and his blue suit coat topped off with a white shirt and a red bow tie. Right below his stern hand, there are the words “I want you for U.S. army”. It’s because of this ad’s effectiveness and memorability is why I chose this advertisement after my professor in my history class showed us. It is effective because it uses a credible figure, it’s patriotic, and it’s aggressive. This ad uses Uncle Sam as a recognizable...
