Assignment: Physical Science Physics Essay

Essay I: The Standard Model of Particles is currently the most basic theory of matter in the universe that has been experimentally verified (to some degree). It not only describes all of the sub-sub-atomic particles in existence (and some which used to exist, or should exist), but it provides a model for any interactions between particles an objects by explaining the root causes of forces.

For this essay, I want you to choose a particle from the Standard Model and tell its story.

Examples:

Question 1) How it is classified? What does it do? What are its basic properties?

Question 2) Has it been discovered, or only theorized? How and when was it discovered? Does it exist naturally, or did it have to be created in a lab?

Question 3) What is it used for? How does it affect the universe?

Essay II: We have discussed how sound is a pressure wave and its pitch depends on the frequency of that wave. We also know that all waves follow the principles of diffraction and interference, and from that interference we can sometimes create resonant wave patterns which are much stronger than the original wave.

For this essay, I want you to pick a musical instrument and describe how it works. Note that I don't want to know how to play it, I want to know how it works, how it produces the necessary sound waves.

Examples:

Question 1) How does a trumpet produce so many different frequencies with only three buttons?

Question 2) Why do woodwinds have so many buttons/holes, while brass instruments have so few?

Question 3) Why are guitars/violins/cellos shaped the way they are? What is the point of a "resophonic" guitar and how does it work?

Question 4) What was the first purely electronic musical instrument and how did it work?

Question 5) Why does a snare drum sound different than a tom?
