Once again, I realized at a very late point in time that we had a journal due this weekend. Searching through my pictures and racking my brain for new concepts we learned in physics, I came upon a birthday candle from Elysse Tom's birthday at California Pizza Kitchen when we were in 9th grade or so. I just went to another birthday dinner tonight with a similar singular candle in celebration of the birthday girl's special day, however, I did not take a picture of it as I did here. In any case, as I came upon this picture I remembered when we talked about force fields in class. When Mr. Kohara turned on the light bulb in class, there was a definite "glow" around the glass of the bulb, which we identified as the light's force field. Even when we could no longer see the tiny rays of light emitting from the bulb, they were still there, going on forever and ever.
So that I would keep with the pattern of my other journals, I tried to look for a number of other pictures to show an example of force fields. I came upon one where I was taking random pictures at Chili's, and one of them happened to be of the various lights, torches, and neon signs that Chili's has. I'm not sure if the "glow" is a result of the force field, or of a slightly shaky camera, but I thought this was an example. Another picture which I really liked was the first picture, which is of a scoreboard of an 'Iolani against, perhaps, Punahou game, in which we won! This must have been a basketball game, it was probably 3 years ago or so. In this picture, the rows of lights making up the numbers on the scoreboard have force fields which can be seen by the various red and green glows being emitted from the numbers.
Good thing I take pictures of such random things! And GREAT thing I take physics so I can analyze them so thoroughly! =D
