The Martian Review

By: Maverick Raymundo The MARTIAN's Astronomy ( PGP ) From this week's featured film, the Martian was a really entertaining movie at a considerable dramatic pace. Against the ten cliches (that Hollywood presents) described by Philip Plait, there were a few that were played out and some that were not. Here are the points used by the author that will be compared to the movie. Sounds In Space Sounds for most of the movie (conversations and sound effects) were on a planet. When the crew was talking to each other they had spacesuits that was filled oxygen where sound can propagate. However, when Mark cuts a hole in his suit and air was released it shouldn't have made any noise at all. It should've been as quiet as Captain Lewis's assistance navigation pack. Dense Asteroid Field There weren't any encounters with any asteroids as the whole movie was about the rescuing of an abandoned man on Mars. It would've been interesting but pushing the lim

Home Alone or Murder Alone? (PGP-13) This film is about a young child using his creative mind to fend off obstinate burglars from ruining his holiday. This movie depicts Kevin McCallister constructing wild Rube Goldberg traps from everyday household items. The iconic 1990 film highlights overcoming adversity with comical perseverance and has brought joy to all ages in the winter seasons. Despite that some scenes were exaggerated to deride the physical torment endured by the home burglars, this scene stood out to me as the most realistic yet flawed. Q: How much force is exerted by the paint bucket to Harry & Marv's face? Physics concept: Conservation of Energy, Impulse, 2D Kinematics, Pendulum (Period Formula) In this scene, we can see that potential energy (stored energy) exists when holding the paint bucket over his head. The instant Kevin threw the paint bucket the energy is then transferred to kinetic energy (motion energy). Assuming that the bucket has e

The Day After Global Warming

The Day After Global Warming (RP) G lobal Warming Source: https://climate.nasa.gov/evidence/ NASA begins by describing Earth’s varying orbit attributing to the amount of solar energy entering would determine glacial cycles since the last ice age. However, NASA claims that the current warming trend upon the globe is caused by the growing rate of human activity in the modern climate era. By comparing the atmospheric CO2 levels from 800,000 years ago to the present (graph) shows the irregular trend increase since the beginning of the Industrial Revolution. By using ancient evidence such as tree rings, coral reefs, ocean sediments, and layers of sedimentary rocks would show how global warming consequently is occurring ten times faster. Some evidence for rapid climate change listed by them are: Global Temperature- Results portray that average surface temperature rose around 2 degrees Fahrenheit since the late 19
