warlike. The styles are also more formal and geometric than those of earlier examples, anticipating the art of classical Greece. A typical Mycenaean city had, at its center, the fortress palace of the king. The cities were fortified with massive structures of unevenly cut stones, known as Cyclopeanwalls. The Linear B tablets from this time include names of Greek gods, such as Zeus, and contain detailed records of royal possessions. The gold masks, weapons, andjewelry found by Schliemann at the r...

Bicycle.
narrow as possible to minimize weight and interference with pedaling. F Specialty Bicycles Many other types of bicycles are designed for special purposes. Although not as common as standard single-rider racing, touring, mountain, or recreational bicycles,they nonetheless have significant niches. Recumbent bicycles are bicycles on which the rider sits upright as if in a chair, with legs and feet stretched out in front. Because they support the rider’s lower back,recumbents allow the rider far mo...

proteins, or other proteins required by the cell. While relatively simple in construction, prokaryotic cells display extremely complex activity. They have a greater range of biochemical reactions than those found in theirlarger relatives, the eukaryotic cells. The extraordinary biochemical diversity of prokaryotic cells is manifested in the wide-ranging lifestyles of the archaebacteria andthe bacteria, whose habitats include polar ice, deserts, and hydrothermal vents—deep regions of the ocean un...

Native American Architecture.
B Relationship to the Universe and Nature A more profound difference between European American and Native American perceptions lay in how human beings saw themselves in relationship to the universe andin what they believed their responsibilities were to the natural world and to each other. Most European Americans saw themselves as separate from creation andadversaries of nature, ever struggling to conquer and subdue nature and force it to yield to their will. Native Americans saw themselves as...

Bacteria - ciencias de la naturaleza.
2.3 Bacterias autótrofas y heterótrofas Respecto a la fuente de carbono que utilizan para nutrirse, las bacterias se pueden clasificar en autótrofas y heterótrofas. Las bacterias autótrofas (producen su propioalimento), lo obtienen del dióxido de carbono (CO 2). Sin embargo, la mayoría de las bacterias son heterótrofas (no producen su propio alimento) y obtienen el carbono de nutrientes orgánicos como el azúcar. Algunas especies heterótrofas sobreviven como parásitos, creciendo dentro de otros...

Diamante - ciencias de la naturaleza.
Refracción de la luz en diamantesEl brillo de los diamantes se debe a su elevado índice de refracción, aproximadamente 2,4. El índice de refracción de un materialtransparente indica cuánto desvía los rayos de luz. La habilidad del joyero reside en tallar las facetas de modo que cada rayo de luzse refleje muchas veces antes de salir de la piedra. El índice de refracción es ligeramente distinto para cada color de la luz, por lo quela luz blanca se divide en sus componentes dando lugar a los fuegos...

INTRODUCCIÓN
Proyección cilíndrica
Si se coloca un papel dispuesto en forma de cilindro alrededor de un globo iluminado, la proyección en el cilindro será un mapa de
proyección cilíndrica.
proyecciones cónicas, se puede representar en un mapa un área extensa con una exactitud considerable.• Proyecciones acimutales o cenitales. Se obtienen al proyectar la superficie esférica sobre un plano. Pueden ser polares (plano tangente al polo), ecuatoriales (planotangente a un punto sobre el ecuador) u oblicuas (plano tangente a un punto cualquiera entre el polo y el ecuador). Son las que representan mejor las zonas polares. Soloabarcan un hemisferio. Las deformaciones aumentan a medida que...

History of Astronomy - astronomy.
Egypt, the Sun was directly overhead at noon. On the same date and time in Alexandria, Egypt, the Sun was about 7 degrees south of zenith. With simple geometryand knowledge of the distance between the two cities, he estimated the circumference of the Earth to be 250,000 stadia. (The stadium was a unit of length, derivedfrom the length of the racetrack in an ancient Greek stadium. We have an approximate idea of how big an ancient Greek stadium was, and based on that approximationEratosthenes was...

Greek Art and Architecture - USA History.
The struggle between these two city-states and their allies ultimately led to the Peloponnesian War (431-404 BC), which Sparta won. Despite this conflict, the 5th century, often called the Classical period, is usually considered the culmination of Greek art, architecture, and drama, with its highest achievements being the Temple ofZeus at Olympia, the Parthenon in Athens, and the plays of Athenian dramatists Aeschylus, Sophocles, Euripides, and Aristophanes. The 4th century, or Late Classical p...

Commentaire composé : Le Balcon (Les Fleurs du Mal) - Baudelaire
(« parfum »), ou encore la vue (« yeux ») ; par l'hyperbole de la première strophe : « Mère des souvenirs, maîtresse des maîtresses », ou encore par la forte ponctuation très expressive : nombreux points d'exclamations et d'interrogations. Le lyrisme est donc organisé de façon circulaire grâce à l'antépiphore, et se confronte à la notion de fermeture. Ces éléments sont en corrélation avec le titre du poème : le balcon. En effet, il est un lieu par lequel nous rentrons et sortons par le mêm...

Galileo

INTRODUCTION
Galileo (1564-1642), Italian physicist and astronomer who, with German astronomer Johannes Kepler, initiated the scientific revolution that flowered in the work of
English physicist Sir Isaac Newton.
V WORK IN ASTRONOMY During most of his time in Padua, Galileo showed little interest in astronomy, although in 1595 he declared in a letter that he preferred the Copernican theory that Earthrevolves around the Sun to the assumptions of Aristotle and Ptolemy that planets circle a fixed Earth ( see Astronomy: The Copernican Theory ; Ptolemaic System). A Observations with the Telescope In 1609 Galileo heard that a telescope had been invented in Holland. In August of that year he constructed a t...

Neptune (planet) - astronomy.
The gaseous atmosphere of Neptune contains hydrogen, helium, and about 3 percent methane. It extends about 5,000 km (about 3,000 mi) above the planet’s ocean.Light reflected from Neptune’s deep atmosphere is blue, because the atmospheric methane absorbs red and orange light but scatters blue light. In 1998 astronomersalso identified molecules of methyl in Neptune’s atmosphere. Methyl molecules each contain one carbon atom and three hydrogen atoms. Methyl molecules are knownas hydrocarbon radical...

Artificial Satellite - astronomy.
The first stage of a multistage rocket consists of rocket engines that provide a huge amount of force, or thrust. The first stage lifts the entire launch vehicle—with itsload of fuel, the rocket body, and the satellite—off the launch pad and into the first part of the flight. After its engines use all their fuel, the first stage portion of therocket separates from the rest of the launch vehicle and falls to Earth. The second stage then ignites, providing the energy necessary to lift the satellit...
