Physics: A Peregrination

Time is fast approaching. We need to go home because it was already 6:30 in the evening. So, from Imus, Cavite we need to ride a bus in able for us to have a minimal time for transportation and be at home as fast as possible. The city was very crowded. People from different places were going home from their works and school. The place where we came from is near in the market that's why the place has so many people. The buses were full. They are all occupied. After a couple of minutes, thank God, a bus slow down and stopped in front of us. It is a trip to Lawton. Let apply the trip in Physics... :)


The bus was on stop. People were riding and we are one of them. When we are approaching the last row of the bus, the bus moved. So all of us were pulled at the back. I came across that the phenomenon happened to us was the first law of inertia which states that Every object in a state of uniform motion tends to remain in that state of motion unless an external force is applied to it. That's it. :)))






Enjoying Physics through Music

Music is life. Music is an artistic combination of sounds which can transmit us feelings and thoughts. Ever since the man was man, we have been making music. Last Saturday, we, my choirmates, have visited our teacher and choir master in her house in Cavite. We have talked about the current events happening in our school. Also also tackled about our plans for our choir because on November, the month of Music, we are going to have a Mini-concert in coordination with the other club that our teacher have talked. We also talked about the things we need to practice for the upcoming Mission Fair Mass. Since it is our last Mission Fair and Mass, it should be memorable and the performance of the choir should be to the highest level. Since most of us are instrumentalist and all of us are singers, we sang all the time. Let us relate singing in Physics.


Sound is the sensation you experience when your auditory nerves are stimulated by vibrating air molecules. When a bell rings, the clapper strikes the sides of the bell and the bell vibrates. This causes the surrounding air molecules to vibrate; these vibrating air molecules cause other adjacent molecules to vibrate and the motion is carried through the air to your ear, causing the ear to vibrate.
