Thesis Statement Raisin In The Sun
How To Write A Safari Invitation
At one time, a large question occupied philosophers and theologians. ( Anyway, at the time, was a philosopher necessarily a theologian. ) This big question, which occupied the whole community, is the following: how many angels can dance on a head pin?
necessarily the answer can not be one or two. Otherwise they would have found. We must therefore look a little further.
Today, our knowledge has advanced and we can start finding answers. The answers are provided by physics. Good thing I know an angel physicist, he may tell me if I'm wrong.
start. And be sure to follow, it will be long and not always easy.
A pin is a small wire-shaped object used to hold objects together. She is hot on one side and has a head on the other side. Take a pin base ball head. The head radius is 3 mm , which allows us to calculate its volume V which is equal to 4 x π xr 3 / 3
V = (4 x 3.14 3 x 3 ) / 3
V = 339.12 / 3
V = 113.04 mm 3
We will round up to 113 mm 3, it will be easier to read.
At the time, there was no plastic. The pins were made of metal. They will say iron. Pur. (For little that remains a pure metal, the computations are the same, only the values change. )
Warning, this is where physics comes into play and must be followed. The molar volume of iron is 7.9 x 10 -6 m 3 / mol . Knowing that 1 m 3 9 = 10 mm 3, this volume can be converted to 7090 mm 3 / mol or 1410 x 10 -4 moles per mm3 iron . Yes, yes. A mole is always 6022 23 x 10 atoms. For mm3 iron was therefore 1410 x 10-4 x 6022 x 1023 atoms.
NbAt = 1410 x 10 -4 x 6022 x 10 23
NbAt = 1410 x 6022 x 10 -4 23 x 10
NbAt = 8.49102 x 10 19
In our pinhead iron, we 113 mm3. This gives us a number of iron atoms equal to 959.48526 19 x 10 atoms. 10 19 like that, it's about not much. Knowing that 1 billion = 10 9 , we can say that 10 19 is 10 billion billion s. This is a followed 19 zeros . It 10 000 000 000 000 000 000 . It's pretty huge.
Angels are not numerous. According to the Bible, there is that "myriads thousand ", which is equivalent to 10 4 x 10 4, 8 or 10 angels. Even if we add the 6 x 10 9 guardian angels, it does enough not to fill the dance floor of a pinhead! For cons, the angels are (mostly ) of pure spirits. They are limited only by their thoughts. They can ask and they dance want as long as they know.
But you know how much you angels with degrees in physics? Angels do not know that they can all dance on a pinhead!
Except one! And it's his birthday today!
Happy Birthday, Yue!
