The Fun Filled Fractal Phenome
... how to calculate fractal dimensions. The formula for fractal dimension is N=2D where N equals the number of copies of the original figure, which is calculated by doubling its size and D is the dimension. Mandelbrot named his creations fractals because each part is a fraction of the whole figure.
The Chaos Theory describes the complex and unpredictable motion of systems that are sensitive to their initial conditions. Chaotic systems follow precise laws but their irregular behavior can appear to be random to the casual observer. For example, weather is a chaotic system. If the rays of the sun bounce off the hood of a car in a certain way, causing a breez ...

can be easily criticized and it will not be very persuasive.

Nuclear Weapons Are A Threat To All
... an explosion by the splitting of atomic
nuclei. This happens when a neutron collides with the nucleus of an atom.
The protons in the nucleus are transformed into a great amount of energy
and two or three more neutrons are sent out, which go on to split other
nuclei. If this continues a process called a chain reaction will occur.
When this happens a fission explosion is the result. To form a chain
reaction, a certain amount of material is needed. This amount is known as
the critical mass. If the amount is too small it is known as a
subcritical mass. The critical mass of a material depends on its purity.
The materials used in making fission weapons are uran ...
