Battery power - a potential victim of temperature?


A write up of a lab in which I researched and conducted an experiment to answer the following question, in order to reveal the implications of how temperature can affect batteries.

How does temperature exposure affect the electric power of a Ni-Cd battery?

Why did the chicken cross the road?

Notable physicists answer….  Why did the chicken cross the road? Albert Einstein: The chicken did not cross the road. The road passed beneath the chicken. It’s relative. Erwin Schrodinger: A chicken? Why not a cat? Isaac Newton: Due to a net force acting upon the chicken. Carl Sagan: There are billions and billions of such chickens, crossing roads just like this one, all across the universe. Albert Michelson and Edward Morley: We could not detect the road. Our experiment was a failure. Werner Heisenberg: We can never know the momentum of the chicken if do know its position and vice versa. This question cannot be answered. Richard Feynman: What is the trajectory of the chicken? Charles Coulomb: A chicken on the other side of the road had the opposite charge of the chicken and the chicken was thus repelled to the chicken on the other side of the road. Galileo Galilei: Because the chicken put one foot in front of the other and a sufficient number of step...

"I am curious! Are you?" An Interpretation...

I have made a poem that reflects on the famous poem 'I'm Nobody! Who are you?' by Emily Dickinson into a completely different topic but still does follow the structure and idea: The poem by Emily Dickinson: I’m Nobody! Who are you? I'm Nobody! Who are you? Are you - Nobody - too? Then there's a pair of us! Don’t tell! they'd advertise - you know! How dreary - to be - Somebody! How public - like a Frog - To tell one's name - the livelong June - To an admiring Bog! My interpretation of the above: I am curious! Are you? I am Curious! Are you? Are you Curious too? A pair of us, there is! Dare tell a lad – and he’ll make an ad! How astounding – being – Curious. How open – like a monkey’s cries – To ask a question – until answered – To the Curious!
