Physics, Chapter 41: Polarized Light, Henry Semat, Robert Katz Jan 1958

Physics, Chapter 41: Polarized Light, Henry Semat, Robert Katz

Robert Katz Publications

The phenomena of interference and diffraction show that light is propagated as a wave motion, but they do not show whether light is a longitudinal wave or a transverse wave. The fact that the velocity of light is the same as the velocity of radio waves and the radiation of visible light from accelerated electrons, as in a betatron, indicates that light is an electromagnetic wave. We recall from Section 20-9 that a wave can be shown to be transverse if a device can be found which will prevent passage of the wave in one orientation and will allow the …


Physics, Chapter 40: Light As A Wave Motion, Henry Semat, Robert Katz Jan 1958

Physics, Chapter 40: Light As A Wave Motion, Henry Semat, Robert Katz

Robert Katz Publications

Let us recount some of the characteristics of the motion of particles and the propagation of waves, with a view toward analyzing the behavior of light. In accordance with Newton's first law, a particle moves in a straight-line path in the absence of external forces. Thus we might infer, as Newton suggested, that light is composed of particles, and that, in a continuous medium, there is no deflecting force on the light particles. At the interface between two media, light may be propagated in a straight line parallel to the interface. Thus even at an interface there is no force …


Physics, Chapter 38: Mirrors And Lenses, Henry Semat, Robert Katz Jan 1958

Physics, Chapter 38: Mirrors And Lenses, Henry Semat, Robert Katz

Robert Katz Publications

A spherical mirror consists of a small section of the surface of a sphere with one side of the surface covered with a polished reflecting material, usually silver or aluminum. If the outside, or convex surface, is silvered, we have a convex mirror; if the inside, or concave surface, is silvered, we have a concave mirror, as shown in Figure 38-1. Most mirrors used commercially are made of glass, with the rear surface silvered and then coated with a layer of paint or lacquer for protection. Mirrors for astronomical telescopes (')f other accurate scientific work are provided with a reflective …


Evaluation Of Ground Corncobs And Corncob Components As Nutritive Materials In Rations For Beef Cattle, J. Matsushima, T. W. Dowe, V. H. Arthaud Dec 1957

Evaluation Of Ground Corncobs And Corncob Components As Nutritive Materials In Rations For Beef Cattle, J. Matsushima, T. W. Dowe, V. H. Arthaud

Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station: Historical Research Bulletins

Two feeding trials were conducted to (1) determine the comparative feeding values of ground corncobs with two fractions of the corncobs--namely, the beeswing and woodyring, and (2) to compare different factors that might affect the utilization of ground corncobs and cob fractions in wintering rations for beef cattle.


Effect Of Change In Moment Of Inertia On The Intensity Distribution In P And R Branches Of C OoV Molecules, Gordon A. Gallup Dec 1957

Effect Of Change In Moment Of Inertia On The Intensity Distribution In P And R Branches Of C OoV Molecules, Gordon A. Gallup

Gordon Gallup Publications

The effect of the change in moment of inertia part of the interaction between vibration and rotation on the intensities of parallel bands of linear polyatomic molecules has been determined to the first order. The results are quite similar to those of Herman and Wallis for diatomic molecules. The interaction term depends on among others a quantity, ξ k, different in general for each band. Perpendicular bands do not show a first-order correction. A ``sum rule'' for the ξ k has been determined.

Industrial Wastes: Bio-Assays For Control Of Industrial Effluents, Croswell Henderson, Clarence M. Tarzwell Sep 1957

Industrial Wastes: Bio-Assays For Control Of Industrial Effluents, Croswell Henderson, Clarence M. Tarzwell

United States Environmental Protection Agency: Publications

Waste effluents from many industries are toxic to fish and other aquatic life. The control or treatment of these wastes for safe release into receiving waters presents a problem of consider able magnitude.

Much effort has been expended by some industries to solve this problem, primarily through chemical analysis for possible toxic components and then generally by a search of the literature to find out how toxic a particular component may be. Unfortunately, this approach has not been successful, nor can it be expected to be productive of satisfactory answers.

German Literature In Exile, W.M. K. Pfeiler Aug 1957

German Literature In Exile, W.M. K. Pfeiler

University Studies (University of Nebraska) (1888–1984)

The present monograph is the first of several of my studies dealing with the German literature that originated in exile since 1933. By calling it "German Literature in Exile" it is kept in mind that it is not a homogeneous literary entity but a part, although an important one, of the whole of German Literature, of which the Austrian and Swiss Literatures are essential components with individual characteristics. The designation used is basically a Formalkategorie for reasons of necessary reference. There are, however, traits of distinction: a militant humanism and a preoccupation with problems peculiar to the existence in exile. …

George W. Norris's Persuasion In The Campaign For The Unicameral Legislature, Phillip K. Tompkins Jul 1957

George W. Norris's Persuasion In The Campaign For The Unicameral Legislature, Phillip K. Tompkins

College of Education and Human Sciences: Dissertations, Theses, and Student Research

The people of forty-seven states in this country are governed by bicameral or two-house legislatures. The people of the forty-eighth, Nebraskans, are governed by a unicameral or one-house legislature.

On November 6, 1934, the people of Nebraska provided by amendment to their state constitution, a one-house legislature to be composed of between thirty and fifty members to be elected on a non-partisan ballot. The number of solons was later set at forty-three, and 1957 marked the twentieth anniversary of the first unicameral session in Nebraska.

Senator George W. Norris is generally regarded by all as the father of the unicameral …

A Midsummer Night's Dream And The Meaning Of Court Marriage, Paul A. Olson Jun 1957

A Midsummer Night's Dream And The Meaning Of Court Marriage, Paul A. Olson

Department of English: Faculty Publications

The opinion that A Midsummer Night's Dream is largely a shimmering fabric of "moonlight, with a touch of moonshine" has become stock among students of Shakespeare. One rephrases habitual insights concerning gossamer and magic whenever one treats of the work. But there is more to the play than a dream. The efforts of historical scholars to place this comedy in the setting of its dramatic tradition, to see it as " sui generis, a ' symbolical' or masque-like play" suggest that we ought to revise our romantic preconceptions of its structure and theme. Elizabethan masques usually afforded pleasures more …


A Differential Counting Rate Meter For Low Counting Rates, James J. Schmidt Jun 1957

A Differential Counting Rate Meter For Low Counting Rates, James J. Schmidt

Open Access Master's Theses (through 2010)

A counting rate meter was constructed after a circuit suggested by Harald Trefall, with a power supply after Elmore.The instrument was tested and proved quite stable after operating for several weeks.The response of the instrument was calculated and the experimental results verified the calculations.Methods of calibration and operation of the instrument were developed to obtain the full benefit of its design.A set of calibration curves was obtained from the counting rate meter and a suggestion for their use in interpreting the output was made.

The research resulted in the construction of an instrument with the following specifications:
