Hey..... we need to talk :/

hey, I am back. Sort of...  by reading the title you can probably assume what im going to say.
I know i never post anything anymore...
thats cause im in highschool now! I love it so much!
I am really busy though and hardly have time to tie my own shoes!
im sadly announcing that this will be my last blog post.
so, since ive been pretty anonymous, ive decided to tell a little about myself :)
as you may know, my name is Maddie. And  this is what i look like!! haha ik i look weird so dont judge.

so, i am fourteen years old

i am a horseback rider

i love 5SOS

i love Teen Wolf #scallison

and i am currently single..... (ugh awkward silence)

 haha this is when i had red tips :)

so unfortunately, i cannot do my signature sign off, due to me getting a new laptop and loosing the source of both gifs, i will just have to say it. by guys.

oh whale.

E-CIGARETTES- THE GATEWAY TO ADDICTION?

Hey guys, its Madeline! So for the last half week or so, guess where ive been? Washington D.C.! It was really fun and interesting. We went with a program called Close-Up and I met some great people when I was there. So this week our blog assignment was on a current event, so I saw this and said, hey, we were just in the Capitol, why not do something that the government is getting involved with!

So the article was talking about e-cigarettes and what they're doing. the company e-cigarettes are trying to target younger audiences to smoke their product by making it seem cool and not taste that bad. They're creating flavored cigarettes. ones that appeal to the public to make smoking seem cooler.they are also reaching out to minors through social media accounts, but some companies restrict minors from giving them likes or retweets.
Have you seen an e-cigarette ad? If not, you may very soon. The congressional report found that among companies that would share financial information, one had increased its spending on advertising for vaping products by 64 percent between 2012 and 2013. Another two companies said they tripled their spending last year.
A 1970 law bans cigarette ads on U.S. radio and TV shows. The idea was to limit a child’s access to such ads, but sadly, this law does not apply to ads for vaping products.
this is an e- cigarette vaping ad:


some states have made the selling of  e-cigarettes illeagal to minors (17 and under). there are currently 28 states that have passed this law. some of those states are New York, Illinois and California.



HEALTH CONCERNS

Another thing with these product is health.
The FDA requires labels warning of health risks on all cigarette packaging. Makers of vaping products do not have to carry such warnings. Still, eight of the nine surveyed companies say they do include some type of warning. Many include a statement saying that vaping products contain nicotine. The labels also state that the State of California says this chemical can cause birth defects or other reproductive harm. Such labels usually also warn that pregnant women should not vape.

Other warning labels say “this product does not treat, diagnose or cure any disease.” Or they can state that nicotine may pose risks to people with heart disease, high blood pressure and diabetes.
Such warnings are not likely to scare off teens. The risks would appear largely for pregnant women and older people with chronic disease. unless your a mother at age seventeen... #teenpregnancy


Michael Jackson has the best way to explain smoking:
ITS BAD ITS BAD ITS REALLY REALLY BAD
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
so ya. dont smoke..... and if you do then
oh whale,


and you should probably stop.. cause you know:
ITS BAD ITS BAD ITS REALLY REALLY BAD
 

DO DA WAVE

So this week is going to be on waves


and OMG! this wasnt a pun! we are actually going to be refrencing actual waves!!!!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
now lets get to the important stuff. What is a wave Madeline? Well a wave transfers energy from one place to another. Some kinds of waves need to travel through a medium, and some can travel in space.
a medium is any kind of matter that can be disturbed by energy. Basically- some waves need matter to exist. Like sound waves. They need to travel through oxygen. So thats why sound doesnt travel in space- thers no oxygen.
so you may be wondering about actual waves at the moment. And let me tell you, waves dont actually move. its just energy traveling through them. sort of......

TYPES OF WAVES

There are ocean waves, but were are gonna talk about other kinds of waves. Mehancical and Electromagnetic waves to be exact.
An electromagnetic wave is a wave that is capable of transmitting its energy through a vacuum (i.e., empty space). Electromagnetic waves are produced by the vibration of charged particles. Electromagnetic waves that are produced on the sun subsequently travel to Earth through the vacuum of outer space.

A mechanical wave is a wave that is not capable of transmitting its energy through a vacuum.

Mechanical waves require a medium in order to transport their energy from one location to another. A sound wave is an example of a mechanical wave. Sound waves are incapable of traveling through a vacuum. Slinky waves, water waves, stadium waves, and jump rope waves are other examples of mechanical waves; each requires some medium in order to exist.

in the catagory of Electromagnetic, there is Transverse and Compressional waves.

A transverse wave is a wave in which particles of the medium move in a direction perpendicular to the direction that the wave moves.



A Compressional waves create sound waves by moving the molecules in the air, which in turn creates waves of noise. The more vibrations there are, the louder the sound is.




PARTS OF A WAVE

Once again, theres more to the picture. Im just going to show you what a wave looks like and show you the parts of a wave!! Calm down.....


So first im going to tell you the vocab then show you a picture all together.

The top of a wave is called the CREST
The bottom of a wave is called the TROUGH
The middle of a wave is called the AMPLITUDE
How you measure the amount of energy or the size of the wave is measured from crest to crest. or trough to trough. That is called the WAVELENGHT
    

Then there is frequency.

if you have a high frequency, then you have a a higher wave with shorter wavelengths.
if you have a low frequency, then you have a lower wave with a longer wavelenghts.


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
so thats it for this week!! i hope you liked it and i hope you enjoyed it. I had fun making it soooo ya.


pictures are just a Ctr-Click away!

it wasnt my best blog but

oh whale,

THE LAWS OF MOTION AND RUSSEL WILSON

So this week were gonna talk about Newtons three Laws of Motion.

FIRST LAW OF MOTION

       This law is also called the law of Inertia.
An object at rest stays at rest and an object in motion stays in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon an unbalanced force. So if Richard Sherman (cornerback for Seattle Seahawks) is trying to block someone, he is pushing against someone. If he is exerting more force on the other person, He will be able to shove the other person away.

SECOND LAW OF MOTION

       The second law of motion explains F=m*a. Basically, the amount of force you have on an object depends on the mass and the acceleration. The heaver the object, the more force is needed to make the object move. So if Steven Hauschka (the kicker for the Seattle Seahawks) was kicking a field goal, he is using force to kick the football. Now if he was kicking a bowling ball, that would have a different outcome.

           
 THIRD LAW OF MOTION
       you may have heard of this law, its pretty famous. For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. This means that for every force there is a reaction force that is equal in size, but opposite in direction. That is to say that whenever an object pushes another object it gets pushed back in the opposite direction equally hard. So lets say that Russel Wilson (QB for Seattle Seahawks) decides not to make a pass, but to run the ball instead. He is running forward, but there is a wind resistance acting against him, making him go a little slower then he wants to. 

 

 

thats all for today. ya it was kinda short but

HOLY CRAP IM SPINNING!!!!!!!!!

asdfghjkl gravity

so ya. that's the topic for this week. and im gonna be half spazzing out while writing this because I hate the idea of going into space freaks me out!!!!!! you couldn't pay me 1,000,000 dollars to make me go into space. or go deep scuba diving. but that's a different explanation for a different time.

so you may be asking," well what is gravity Madeline?" well person i don't know, and never will know, gravity is not only a movie, but it is the force that pulls us to the Earth's core. there is a force that works against gravity, but you can look at my last post to find out what that is!

an example of gravity is the classic:

Your sitting under an apple tree, and suddenly, an apple falls onto your head! Gravity pulled the apple to the ground (but not before making a detour on your head).

Another way to look at gravity is this: imagine putting a bowling ball on a trampoline. it sinks in. now take a ping pong ball and place it where the trampoline starts to sink in. the ping pong ball will roll to the bowling ball in a circular motion.

now replace the bowling ball with the sun, and the ping pong ball with the Earth!

thus, gravity!!!

the theory is that an object will bend space and act as the large trampoline. that's called the theory o9f general relativity. and the genius who came up with that is:

 ALBERT EINSTEIN!!!

Galileo  also contributed a great deal to the mystery that was gravity.

what he did was, he took random objects and dropped them off a high building. he had people below the building tell him which one hit the ground first. Every time both objects hit the ground at the same time.

(not so)interesting fact- Galileo died on the exact day that Sir Isaac Newton was born. What a coincidence! or maybe it was fate.

Sir Isaac Newton was the one who figured out that gravity pulled things to the ground, b-by the way. (directioners: Megamind episode one- Louis telling Harry that he was in the band after asking him a question)

MASS VS. WEIGHT

you may think that mass is the same thing as weight. but its not.

Mass is how much space you take up. if you were to go to Mars with JB, your mass you be the same because you haven't changed ho much space you take up.

Weight is how gravity affects you. If you were are on Mars, your weight is going to be less based off Mars' gravitational pull.

 so- TEENAGE GIRLS HERES A WAY TO LOOSE WEIGHT:

MOVE TO MARS

Gravity is one of the most important things in our lives, exept for Jennifer Lawrence...

i guess you could say gravity keeps us DOWN TO EARTH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

OMG!!!!!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

well, the gif above killed me.


oh whale,

Luke Skywalker ASDFGHJKL

Disclaimer- very punny.




Today were gonna talk about  FORCE. Yes I do mean the Force from Star Wars Because Yoda I am. Surprise Surprise!!
Well lets talk about force. And the fact that Luke Skywalker had a crush on his own sister for a while...
So im gonna give yall a few examples:
1. Lets say Luke is somehow on the Earth. Somehow. you all know what Gravity is (we've all seen the movie) Gravity is what keeps us on the ground. But if Gravity was the only force acting upon us, then we would be pulled into the Earth itself. There is a force working against Gravity at the same level, that keeps us on the very top of the Earth. that force is called Reaction Force.
2. Lets say Luke Skywalker (or Luke Hemmings) is driving a drone thing, (or a car) He is accelerating forward, but yet again, there is a  force acting against him. that force is wind resistance.

So based off those definitions, what do you think the definition of force is??
 [a brief intermission]
Force is a push or a pull!! basically. And you can use Newtons to measure force.
but of course, there is more kinds of forces, one being Net Force.
a Net Force is the overall force acting upon an object.






now were gonna talk about how thrust comes into this.

so thrust is to push something suddenly or violently  in a specified direction.
you hear the word thrust a lot when talking about airplanes. you need the right amount of it to get the plane in the air.





~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
(just when you thought it was over (: )

UNBALANCED AND BALANCED

there are balanced and unbalanced forces.  Forces are balanced when the forces pushing (or pulling) an object in one direction are the same size as the forces acting in the opposite direction .
An example of un-balanced forces would be like this:
Lets say Ashton Irwin and Calum Hood are on opposite sides of a door. Ashton pushes with 20N
and Calum pushes the door with 15N. Ashton would push the door to Calum's side because he was pushing with more Newtons than Calum.
An example of balanced forces would be like this:
Lets say Michael Clifford and Luke Hemmings (not Skywalker) are on opposite sides of a door. Michael pushes with 17N and Luke is pushing the door with 17N as well. the door would remain still because the force put on both sides are equal.

 CENTRIPETAL FORCE

Centripetal force is a force that makes a body follow a curved path: its direction is always orthogonal to the velocity of the body, toward the fixed point of the instantaneous center of curvature of the path
 Sort of like when a car turns severly to the left or right and you veer to the side. Sort of


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

now it's really over! again sorry for the puns.forgive me? and if you don't, then
oh whale,

ACCELERATION

So this post may be very punny. I think I may have a problem. (Directioners will understand)

Wer'e gonna talk about Acceleration. Acceleration is the change of velocity divided by the time it takes for the change to occur. There are three ways to accelerate. By speeding up, slowing down, and changing direction.
So lets say Liam Payne is going to the doctor. He needs to find out what is wrong with him.. He gets in the car and drives there. So when he steps on the petal (heavy metal) His car is accelerating.

So, he has to take a left turn to get into the doctor's office, so when his car is turning, his car is accelerating. So when he pulls into the parking lot, his car is slowing down. But it is still accelerating. But his car is accelerating negativly.

there is a not so easy way to calculate acceleration.

TYPEES OF ACCELERATION

there is negative acceleration, and positive acceleration. When you have negative acceleration, that means the acceleration is moving against the speed, slowing it down. When you have positive acceleration, the acceleration is going the same direction as the speed.(so i guess you would be the one that got away. Poor Niall)






GRAPHING ACCELERATION
yea yea i know you all hate math. We're not learning how to graph acceleration though, just how to understand a graph.

 

 

positive acceleration looks like a smiley face (becuase its happy, or positive)

negative acceleration looks like a frowny face(because its not happy, or negative)

 

 

see? that did'nt take that long to learn how to read a graph!! maybe even 5SECONDS(OF SUMMER)

that was one of my bad jokes....

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

i just realized something! it's my 10th post! [insert overly dramatic crying voice] we've been through so muc! [un-insert overly dramatic crying voice]The laughs we have, between you and me? The laughs, jokes, pranks, ugh! sorry. again only directioners/5SOS fans will understand. I.E. Gabby

I hope you liked my post! I liked making it! here are my links, and i'll see you next time!
