Math, Nanotechnology and Food

Understanding Nanotechn ology in Food Image result for nanotechnology in food

This website explains how nanotechnology is a big factor in many things but surprisingly it is huge with food. One way it can be used is in packaging. It can make silver nano particles in plastic packaging that can kill bacteria. Also nano scientists are using nanotechnology to give people the choice of the flavor in the food they eat from vegetables to drink. If you don’t like your carrots, don’t worry, soon we will be able to change the flavor!

Since it’s the last post for module one, I will be telling you 5 fun facts about fashion design.

1. The first fashion magazine was published in Germany in 1586.

2. Evidence for the first clothes dates somewhere between 100,000 to 500,000 years ago.

3. Men’s shirts button on the right, and women’s on the left.

4. The four major fashion capitals of the world are New York, London, Milan, and Paris. Each city holds fashion shows twice, in February and September.

5. The five most common clothing materials are linen, cotton, polyester, and rayon. Cotton is the most widely used clothing material, but it only became common in mid 1800 s, when Eli Whitney’s cotton gin made it easy to separate the cotton fibers from the seeds.

What is textile math?

The mathematics in textile is known as textile mathematics. The ideas have been used as inspiration for a number of fiber arts including quilting, knitting, cross-stitch, crocheting, embroidery and weaving and spinning. A wide range of mathematical concepts have been used for it. Some techniques such as counted-thread embroidery are naturally geometrical,. Other kinds of textile has a meaning for the colorful physical expression in mathematical concepts. In textile, spinning, weaving, knitting, embroidery and fashion designing is done with the help of textile mathematics.

In order to understand the 3-D design better, here’s a video about how to draw a 3-D drawing.

You can try it yourself!

Module Two Post Five ( 2 point perspective making prisms)

Posted on March 7, 2018 by

In this website, it has a slideshow provided. I prefer you check that out instead of what is written since the writing does not make much sense without diagrams to backup the points. The slideshow shows how drawings used to create prisms are used with 2 point perspective. Once the drawings made by this perspective technique, you can start to label each side in units so that you can calculate surface area and volume.

So to sum up what I just described, 2 point perspective can be used to create prisms that our class used in the unit we just covered, surface area and volume. Obviously, the way this type of perspective drawing is used has math sewn into the process. Not to mention 2 point perspective has lots of uses: for art and math.

History of math in military

This web site is a prezi presentation that shows how math is applied in the military. In history, math have been used to create weapons and calculate construction plans for artillery weapons. In Ancient Greece, artillery weapons that are similar to cross bows have been constructed by mathematical calculations. Sailing and navigational technology have advanced due to math calculations that allowed for the construction of ships and boats. Ancient Greece made the fastest boats at the time by using simple geometric calculations. In World War II, Albert Einstein created the atomic bomb using math to calculate scientific equations. Aircrafts, computers and the encryption system was also created. These technologies allowed for more destruction in warfare.

Post 3 Module 2 (How the length of your stick can affect your shot)

Video used:

This video was done by a renowned hockey tutorial channel, explaining some benefits and disadvantages between long and short sticks. Focusing on the shot aspect, he says that the shorter the stick less power, however bigger the stick harder the shot. Although i disagree, as the long stick in the video was was designed for a 7 foot tall person. In result, when contacting the puck there will be less power and accuracy. This is a good video to question, that I can further test throughout my project.

Cite used: http://thwink.org/sustain/glossary/LeveragePoint.htm

In this website, it demonstrates the scientific definition of what leverage is. In science, leverage is the ratio of change in output to the change in input. The equation to calculating leverage is =leverage x force = change. In other words, leverage multiplied by the amount of force is equal to the change. This website also discusses four MAJOR terms to know:

Change force: Effort required to prepare and make a change

leverage point: Place in structure where a solution element can be applied

low leverage point: small amount of force causes small change

high leverage point: small amount of force causes big change

In all, a great site reviewing and analyzing the definition of leverage.

Some fashion designers use computer to design their clothes, and computer has a big connection with math.

Here’s a video link about how computers do math.

The human eye is able to decipher patterns of light according to the primary colours: red, green and blue. However, there are other colours too: cyan, magenta and yellow. So, colour and math are related, you can do addition and subtraction with colours too. Further, there’s endless combo you can do with colours.
