Science

Astronomy is the natural science of the universe. The subject of its study are cosmic phenomena, processes and objects. Thanks to this science, we know what stars, planets, satellites, comets, asteroids, meteorites are. Astronomical knowledge also gives the concept of space, the location of celestial bodies, their movement and the formation of their systems. Last modified: 2025-01-23 12:01

Clay is an interesting and diverse material in its properties, which is formed as a result of the destruction of rocks. Many, dealing with this plastic substance, think: what does clay consist of? Let's find out the answer to this question, and also figure out how this natural material can be useful to a person. Last modified: 2025-06-01 07:06

Which animals were the first to be sent into space? To many, this question will seem elementary. Most often, in response, we heard that the first animals to see space were a couple of outbred dogs with the names Belka and Strelka. And, to the surprise of many, we are forced to report that this answer is wrong. Last modified: 2025-01-23 12:01

"In space no one can hear you scream." Surely there is no person who has not heard this expression. Is there sound in space? Outer space is a vacuum, and sound does not propagate in a vacuum. However, it turns out that this is not entirely true. Last modified: 2025-01-23 12:01

In the article we will talk about the anatomy of plants. We will consider this topic in detail and try to understand the issue. Plants surround us from birth, so it is useful to learn something new about them. Last modified: 2025-01-23 12:01

Visual-figurative thinking is the extraordinary ability of a creative person to see the non-standard in everyday things. Thanks to the ability to think creatively, new projects are born in the world, discoveries are made and life becomes not stereotyped, but unique for everyone who knows how to see in it a non-ordinary cycle of events, actions and objects.

Most of the substances around us are mixtures of various substances, so the study of their properties plays an important role in the development of chemistry, medicine, the food industry and other sectors of the economy. The article deals with the questions of what is the degree of dispersion, and how it affects the characteristics of the system. Last modified: 2025-01-23 12:01

Magnetic declination is the amount by which the magnetic azimuth differs from the true one. This knowledge is necessary not only when making long expeditions, but also during artillery firing, as well as for the normal navigation of ships and aircraft flights. Last modified: 2025-01-23 12:01

In the twentieth century, having separated from biology into a separate science, ecology begins its life. This discipline immediately began to gain popularity. Until now, it continues to develop rapidly. Although it covers a fairly wide range of issues, probably everyone can roughly answer if you ask him: “What does ecology study?”.

Recently, the public is increasingly concerned about environmental issues - protecting the environment, animals, reducing the amount of harmful and dangerous emissions. Surely everyone has also heard about what an ozone hole is, and that there are a lot of them in the modern stratosphere of the Earth. Last modified: 2025-01-23 12:01

Asteroids, comets, meteors, meteorites - astronomical objects that seem the same to the uninitiated in the basics of the science of celestial bodies. In fact, they differ in several ways. The properties that characterize asteroids, comets, meteors, meteorites are quite easy to remember. They also have a certain similarity: such objects are classified as small bodies, often classified as space debris. Last modified: 2025-01-23 12:01

Rodents are the most numerous order of mammals. It's no joke, but now 2277 species have been described by zoologists, and this is more than half of all animals and first animals. Rodents have spread throughout the planet, with the exception of Antarctica and some islands. Last modified: 2025-01-23 12:01

Rotation is a typical type of mechanical movement that is often found in nature and technology. Any rotation arises as a result of the action of some external force on the system under consideration. This force creates the so-called torque. What it is, what it depends on, is discussed in the article. Last modified: 2025-01-23 12:01

The rotation of bodies is one of the important types of mechanical movement in technology and nature. Unlike linear movement, it is described by its own set of kinematic characteristics. One of them is angular acceleration. We characterize this value in the article. Last modified: 2025-01-23 12:01

Erickson's epigenetic theory is an eight-stage concept that describes how personality develops and changes throughout life. This is a set of views that explain the nature of the formation of the individual from the moment of his conception and up to old age. She influenced the understanding of how children develop in childhood and later in life. Last modified: 2025-01-23 12:01

French sociological school is considered to be one of the areas of sociological research, the founder of which is E. Durkheim.

Perceptron, or perceptron (English perceptron from Latin perceptio - "perception") - a mathematical or computer model of information perception by the brain (cybernetic model of the brain), proposed by Frank Rosenblatt in 1957 and first implemented as an electronic machine " Mark-1" in 1960. Perceptron became one of the first models of neural networks, and Mark-1 became the world's first neurocomputer. Last modified: 2025-01-23 12:01

Sound intensity is the amount of energy that a sound wave transfers in 1 second through a unit area of the medium. The intensity depends on the frequency of the wave, on the acoustic pressure. As you can see, many other concepts are associated with intensity: a sound wave, its frequency, acoustic pressure, the flow of sound energy. In order to understand what intensity is, we will analyze in detail each term associated with it. Last modified: 2025-01-23 12:01

In mathematics, modular arithmetic is a calculation system for integers, with the help of which they "turn over" when they reach a certain value - the module (or the plural of them). The modern approach to this kind of science was developed by Carl Friedrich Gauss in his Disquisitiones Arithmeticae published in 1801. Last modified: 2025-01-23 12:01
