Penzias and Wilson discovered a faint 3.5 degree Kelvin microwave background radiation coming from all directions in space. This matched theoretical predictions of radiation leftover from a hot, dense early universe. Princeton astronomers recognized this as evidence supporting the Big Bang theory. The discovery provided strong evidence against the steady state theory of the universe and helped establish the Big Bang as the leading model of cosmic origins.
The document discusses astronomy and the scientific study of celestial objects. It provides information on key topics in astronomy including:
- The big bang produced giant sound waves that stretched as the universe expanded, leaving an imprint as temperature variations in the cosmic microwave background.
- By analyzing data from the Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe, a researcher was able to recreate what the sounds of the early universe may have sounded like, scaling frequencies up tremendously so they became audible.
- The recording reflects what happened as sound waves fell to lower frequencies as the universe expanded in its first 760,000 years.
The document discusses IBM's mobile customer engagement platform. It highlights how the platform allows companies to send targeted push notifications and messages to customers based on their location, behaviors and other attributes. Specific features covered include segmentation, location services, omni-channel messaging, analytics and use cases from companies in industries like retail, airlines and entertainment.

The document summarizes key information about the solar system and astronomy. It describes the sun's mass, diameter, and surface temperature. It explains that the solar system includes the sun, eight planets and their moons, asteroids in the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter, and comets. It also summarizes the formation of the solar system from a large cloud of gas and dust, and provides details about planets, asteroids, comets, and orbits around the sun according to Kepler's laws of planetary motion.
Rocks are classified based on how they form. The three main types are igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic. Igneous rocks form from the cooling and solidification of molten rock, either below the surface as intrusions or above the surface as extrusions. Texture and mineral composition are used to classify igneous rocks. Slow cooling forms large crystals while fast cooling forms small or no crystals. Sedimentary rocks form from the compaction or cementation of sediments. Metamorphic rocks form from changes to existing rocks via heat, pressure, and chemical reactions in the Earth.
The document provides information about rocks and minerals, including reference tables to help identify different types of rocks based on their properties. It includes tables on mineral properties, igneous rock identification, sedimentary rock identification, metamorphic rock identification, and general rock cycle and geology information. Students are given practice questions to test their understanding of using the reference tables to identify rocks and minerals based on descriptions of their characteristics.
The document describes lunar and solar eclipses. It explains that lunar eclipses occur during a full moon when the moon passes through the Earth's shadow, making it appear dark red. Solar eclipses happen during a new moon phase when the moon passes between the Earth and sun, blocking the sun's light. Eclipses only occur when the moon's orbit aligns it directly behind or in front of Earth relative to the sun. The simulation allows viewing eclipses from different angles to understand how they occur.
The Medieval Period lasted from 800-1400 AD. Music during this time was mostly religious and associated with the Catholic Church. The primary musical form was Gregorian chant, which was single melodic line music popularized by Pope Gregory. Instrumental music involved instruments like organs, vielles, lutes, recorders and drums and was often used to accompany vocal music or dances. Major composers of the time included Guillaume Dufay, Phillipe de Vitry, and Guillaume de Machaut who helped transition Medieval music into the Renaissance period.
The most important properties for identifying a mineral are its physical properties, including:
- Luster
- Hardness
- Cleavage
- Crystal form
- Color
- Streak
- Specific gravity
Cleavage is caused by the internal molecular arrangement of the mineral. The way the molecules are arranged internally determines how and along which planes the mineral will break when under stress.
Lower Duck Pond Poster - Ryerson and WCISaad Ulhaq
This document summarizes a pilot study that assessed an innovative technology called the EOS-2000 for reducing sediment accumulation and improving water quality in a stormwater retention pond. The EOS-2000 was deployed from September to December 2015 and increased dissolved oxygen levels and oxidation reduction potential in the pond, stimulating aerobic bacterial activity in the sediments. This resulted in the digestion of 7.9-12.6% of sediments over just 3 months, equivalent to 1,175-1,863 cubic meters of sediment loss. Water clarity also improved by 218% and aerobic bacterial counts increased by 2-3 orders of magnitude, demonstrating the effectiveness of the technology in enhancing respiration and slowing sediment accumulation.
PRODUÇÃO E CONSUMO DE ENERGIA DA PRÉ-HISTÓRIA À ERA CONTEMPORÂNEA E SUA EVOLU...Faga1939
Este artigo tem por objetivo apresentar como ocorreu a evolução do consumo e da produção de energia desde a pré-história até os tempos atuais, bem como propor o futuro da energia requerido para o mundo. Da pré-história até o século XVIII predominou o uso de fontes renováveis de energia como a madeira, o vento e a energia hidráulica. Do século XVIII até a era contemporânea, os combustíveis fósseis predominaram com o carvão e o petróleo, mas seu uso chegará ao fim provavelmente a partir do século XXI para evitar a mudança climática catastrófica global resultante de sua utilização ao emitir gases do efeito estufa responsáveis pelo aquecimento global. Com o fim da era dos combustíveis fósseis virá a era das fontes renováveis de energia quando prevalecerá a utilização da energia hidrelétrica, energia solar, energia eólica, energia das marés, energia das ondas, energia geotérmica, energia da biomassa e energia do hidrogênio. Não existem dúvidas de que as atividades humanas sobre a Terra provocam alterações no meio ambiente em que vivemos. Muitos destes impactos ambientais são provenientes da geração, manuseio e uso da energia com o uso de combustíveis fósseis. A principal razão para a existência desses impactos ambientais reside no fato de que o consumo mundial de energia primária proveniente de fontes não renováveis (petróleo, carvão, gás natural e nuclear) corresponde a aproximadamente 88% do total, cabendo apenas 12% às fontes renováveis. Independentemente das várias soluções que venham a ser adotadas para eliminar ou mitigar as causas do efeito estufa, a mais importante ação é, sem dúvidas, a adoção de medidas que contribuam para a eliminação ou redução do consumo de combustíveis fósseis na produção de energia, bem como para seu uso mais eficiente nos transportes, na indústria, na agropecuária e nas cidades (residências e comércio), haja vista que o uso e a produção de energia são responsáveis por 57% dos gases de estufa emitidos pela atividade humana. Neste sentido, é imprescindível a implantação de um sistema de energia sustentável no mundo. Em um sistema de energia sustentável, a matriz energética mundial só deveria contar com fontes de energia limpa e renováveis (hidroelétrica, solar, eólica, hidrogênio, geotérmica, das marés, das ondas e biomassa), não devendo contar, portanto, com o uso dos combustíveis fósseis (petróleo, carvão e gás natural).
