Terada Torahiko, A Physicist And A Haikai Poet, Akira Komiya
Terada Torahiko, A Physicist And A Haikai Poet, Akira Komiya
CLCWeb: Comparative Literature and Culture
Terada Torahiko is known as a scientific essayist in Japan, but hardly anyone knows he was a haikai poet as well as a physicist. According to him, haikai poetry and physics are two different ways of conceiving Nature, both valid and perhaps complementary to each other. Seeing his research in physics looking for regularities in apparently irregular phenomena in everyday life, we may say his haiku haikai spirit is manifest there and that he was pioneering a new science such as the one developed later by Ilya Prigogine. His association of haiku haikai poetry and Freudian interpretations of dreams leads …

Assessment Of Students’ Levels Of Studying Physics, Fozil Irmatov
Assessment Of Students’ Levels Of Studying Physics, Fozil Irmatov
Mental Enlightenment Scientific-Methodological Journal
This article explores the specifics of teaching physics in nonphysical specializations. In the areas of non-physical specialization of pedagogical higher education institutions, it is emphasized that the physics program should be radically different from the curriculum of physics, which is a specialized subject. Many other modern educational technologies are based on the teaching of physics for students of non-physical specialties, the organization of the educational process. The main focus in the teaching of physics to students of non-physical specialties is the content of theoretical materials necessary for the formation of scientific thinking among students, the creation of opportunities for independent …

Joseph Henry, W. H. Kadesch
Science Bulletin
Have you ever asked your pupils the question, what American has contributed most to the development of electrical science? Very likely a great majority would answer without hesitation, Edison, the inventor of the incandescent light. Some might answer, Bell, the inventor of the telephone. A few, the radio fans, might say De Forest, the inventor of the three electrode tube. An occasional one might even answer Franklin, the first great American scientist, who drew electricity from the clouds, and showed that lightning and the "electric fluid" are the same. Not one, I am sure, would ever mention Joseph Henry.
Magnetism, L. Begeman
Magnetism, L. Begeman
Science Bulletin
Interstellar space is characterized by the existence of three all pervading fields of force denoted respectively as gravitational, electric, and magnetic. Einstein in his general theory of relativity demonstrates mathematically that these three force fields are but different aspects of one universal field. To the average man, however, these three natural forces will always appear as separate distinct entities.
Newton's Laws Of Motion, L. Begeman
Newton's Laws Of Motion, L. Begeman
Science Bulletin
In the study of Newton's Laws of Motion, it is more important to understand the concepts they embody than to be able to repeat them verbatim. Too frequently, in the teaching of high school physics, memory work is allowed to take the place of concrete information. This is particularly true with reference to these basic mechanical concepts of the physical universe known as Newton's Laws of Motion.
Motion, L. Begeman
Motion, L. Begeman
Science Bulletin
Motion is a general property of matter. There is no rest in the absolute sense. An object at rest with reference to the earth 's surface is in rapid motion with reference to the earth's axis of rotation just as a person may be at rest in a Pullman car and at the same time be in rapid motion with reference to the ground. All divisions of matter, - masses, molecules, atoms, protons, and electrons are moving relatively all of the time.
The Simple Machines, L. Begeman
The Simple Machines, L. Begeman
Science Bulletin
With reference to a pulley system, the work equation is clearly discerned in its practical operation. In presenting the pulley, the writer uses a rectangular frame about two feet high and three feet wide. A number of hooks are screwed into the top cross piece of the frame. With such a device a number of different pulley combinations can be shown at one time.
The Simple Machines, L. Begeman
The Simple Machines, L. Begeman
Science Bulletin
In the discussion of simple machines it is best to begin with the lever and the wheel and axle. Both of these simple machines give us a practical illustration of the principle of moments. The lever is the simpler and clearer illustration and usually presents little difficulty to a student body. The wheel and axle is a device which can be considered to be a continuously acting lever in which the radius of the wheel is the force or effort arm and the radius of the axle is the resistance arm.
Mechanics Of Solids, L. Begeman
Mechanics Of Solids, L. Begeman
Science Bulletin
According to the traditional arrangement of subject matter in textbooks on high school physics, it is customary to introduce the treatment of mechanics of so-lids by beginning with the subject of motion, force, and Newton's laws of motion. This at once leads the immature student into a labyrinth of abstract conceptions that is generally disheartening. It would show better judgment on the part of the teacher to begin the subject of mechanics with material that is more concrete to the student and which is continually before him in his environment.

The three states of matter denoted as solids, liquids and gases are different phenomena of matter arising from a change in the intensity of molecular attractions.
Capillarity, L. Begeman
Capillarity, L. Begeman
Science Bulletin
One of the best practical illustrations of the effect of surface tension is found in capillarity. For this topic the instructor will do well to base his teaching upon surface tension. It is this force that raises the water in a clean glass capillary tube and that depresses the mercury in such a tube.
