My Roller Coaster Website

One Life To Live

Science Blog on Website

Lately in class, we have been focusing on Newtons Laws of Motion. Along with that, we have been using these laws to construct roller coasters. In addition, once these roller coasters have been completed you are to make a website containing information of your roller coaster as if it were a real life situation. This website was made at www.webs.com. Once creating this site, you are to put information up on hours your roller coaster runs, admission, contact information, and more. However, on this website you can do much more than just putt pictures up. You can put music of almost any song you can think of, upload videos, such as your roller coaster in action, and you can have a calendar and put important dates you may need to remember. Plus, you can customize this website and make it your style. Choose a template, and what information is posted, and you can also put widgets. Widgets are informative and fun. For example, you can get maps, new feeds, pulls, counters, games, and more. You can even access the whole world from where you are. In the end, this project is fun and has a lot of fascinating and entertaining features you can put onto your website.

We all know McDonald's as a popular fast food place. However, it is not only just located in the United States, or in general North America, it is also located in other countries and continents. For example, three hundred McDonald's restaurants are said to be put in China within the next year. Besides these three hundred McDonald's, there are already some in China. In 2008, there was one hundred and forty-six McDonald's placed in China. In 2012, there is a prediction that there will be thirty thousand McDonald's worldwide. Its popularity does not just come from the commercials, but by the good tasting food as well. Although in China, there are different choices and options of food, then here, in North America, more specifically is New Jersey. All in all, McDonald's we all know now is very popular, but soon to come, like in 2012, McDonald's will be even more known worldwide, but mostly the biggest increase in China.

Newton's Laws

Lately, in class we have been learning about Newtons Three Laws of Motion. First law being that, An object at rest tends to stay at rest and an object in motion tends to stay in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force. The second law is that the change in velocity (acceleration) with which an object moves is directly proportional to the magnitude of the force applied to the object and inversely proportional to the mass of the object. Lastly, the third law is that for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. Friction, a major part with motion and force, is a conflict with force. It can either cause object to move at a faster pace or to slow down. Newton's laws are mostly used for measuring force, acceleration, and mass. These laws can be related into our daily lives such as a football game. The football will remain in the same spot if there is not friction, a football player to throw it, to cause it to move. It will continue moving if there is not friction, someone throwing it, to slow it down or make it speed up. My thoughts on this topic, is that this subject may be some what confusing, but once understood is very helpful in many situations related to your daily life.

Recently, jobs have been decreasing and many people are losing their occupation. Popular places, such as, Macy's, AOL, Starbucks, and Target are big stores where the most people have been let go from their jobs. Over 15,000 jobs have been lost just within these stores in the last year. Jobs are cutting down because businesses cannot afford to pay their workers. As a result, led the companies to lay off people unless they were needed. This causes people to have financial trouble. With having financial trouble, people are forced to find jobs, but with people getting let go, it is hard finding a job in a lot of places. This time now, with most people not having jobs, is not considered a depression, but a recession. I personally, think that we should not be in this recession and companies should just pay workers a lower amount, so people get little money rather than none. In the end, maybe eventually we will come out of this recession.
