Hi Michael! I appreciate you dealing with the 15 grad school LORs. To think that me dreading to sign up for physics junior year because of my awful experience with it in high school, would end up leading to one of the most fascinating research experiences I've had and a great mentor along the way. I cannot express how much of an impact you've made in the last half of my college career. Thank you once again and I will keep you updated.

Image of a breadboard with two resistors in parallel, both connecting the same two strips on a breadboard. The minimal circuit, I think.

Projectiles 1 and 2 are launched over level ground with the same speed but at different angles. Which hits the ground first? Ignore air resistance. [Projectile 1 goes about twice as high as projectile 2, both in nice parabolic arcs.]
Pearson helpfully shows a non pop-up menu to let me know that assignments will ONLY show up in pop-ups.
Me: what is 8.8 - 8.11 ChatGPT: Ah, now I get it! You’re asking for the result of the mathematical operation: 8.8 - 8.11 = -0.31 Let me know if you need anything else! Me: but isn't 8.8 bigger than 8.11? ChatGPT: Good point! When you compare 8.8 and 8.11, 8.8 is actually smaller than 8.11 because 8.11 has an extra decimal place that makes it slightly larger. So, 8.8 - 8.11 will give a negative result: 8.8 - 8.11 = -0.31 If you were looking for clarification, it's all about the extra digits after the decimal. Does that help?

Quote from textbook: "The Nazi party was the German equivalent of Italy's Fascist party. It arose in the 1920s in reaction to deplorable economic conditions after the war and national resentments over the Treaty of Versailles. The Nazi leader, Adolf Hitler, used bullying tactics against the Jews as well as Fascist ideology to increase his popularity with disgruntled, unemployed German workers. Hitler seized the opportunity presented by the depression to play upon anti-Semitic hatreds. With his personal army of "brown shirts," Hitler gained control of the German legislature in 1933"
