Presentation on the topic "Robert Boyle". Tips on how to make a good presentation or project report

slide 3

Robert was the seventh son of Richard Boyle, Earl of Cork. His father gave him the opportunity to receive a versatile education, including in the field of natural science and medicine: in 1635-1638. Boyle studied at Eton College, and in 1639-1644. at the Geneva Academy.

At first, Boyle dealt with religious and philosophical issues, then, having moved to Oxford, he turned to research in the field of chemistry and physics, taking part in the work of a scientific society called the "invisible college". In 1665 Boyle received an honorary doctorate in physics from Oxford University. In 1668 he settled in London, where he was elected president of the Royal Society, but declined this position.

Scientific activity Boyle is devoted to physics and chemistry and the development of atomistic theory. Boyle's views were greatly influenced by the philosophy of Francis Bacon; in Boyle's works there are many references to Bacon's thoughts about natural science and, first of all, about the recognition of experience as a criterion of truth.

Research in the field of physics led Boyle to the discovery in 1660 of the law of change in the volume of air with a change in pressure (regardless of Boyle, the law was also discovered by the French scientist Edm Mariotte). As a result of their experimental work on the quantitative study of the processes of roasting metals, combustion, dry distillation of wood, the transformation of salts, acids and alkalis, Boyle introduced the concept of analysis of the composition of bodies into chemistry. In 1663, Boyle was the first to use indicators to determine acids and alkalis. Investigating the composition of mineral waters, he used a decoction of ink nuts to discover iron and ammonia to discover copper. Describing the properties of phosphorus, Boyle indicated its color, smell, density, ability to glow, and its relationship to solvents. Boyle's numerous observations marked the beginning of analytical chemistry.

Slide 7

Boyle's Law - Mariotte is one of the fundamental gas laws, discovered in 1662 by Robert Boyle and independently rediscovered by Edme Mariotte in 1676. The law is a special case of the ideal gas equation of state. Boyle's law - Mariotte states: At a constant temperature and mass of an ideal gas, the product of its pressure and volume is constant. In mathematical form, this statement is written as follows pV = const, where p is the gas pressure; V is the volume of gas. It is important to clarify that in this law the gas is considered as ideal. In fact, all gases are more or less different from the ideal. The higher the molar mass of the gas, the greater this difference.

The bright side of Boyle's life was religious and missionary activity. So he thought of suicide, from which he was kept only by the thought that his soul would go to hell. He decided to dispel his doubts by reading the Bible in the original, and therefore began to study the Hebrew and Greek languages. By will (December 31, 1691), Boyle left capital to finance the annual readings on God and religion, the famous "Boyle Lectures". The Boyle Lectures continued regularly until 1905. Since 2004 they have been resumed in London. They take place every year in February.

Tips on how to make a good presentation or project report

  1. Try to involve the audience in the story, set up interaction with the audience using leading questions, the game part, do not be afraid to joke and smile sincerely (where appropriate).
  2. Try to explain the slide in your own words, add additional Interesting Facts, you don’t just need to read the information from the slides, the audience can read it themselves.
  3. No need to overload your project slides with text blocks, more illustrations and a minimum of text will better convey information and attract attention. Only the key information should be on the slide, the rest is better to tell the audience orally.
  4. The text must be well readable, otherwise the audience will not be able to see the information provided, will be greatly distracted from the story, trying to make out at least something, or completely lose all interest. To do this, you need to choose the right font, taking into account where and how the presentation will be broadcast, and also choose the right combination of background and text.
  5. It is important to rehearse your report, think over how you will greet the audience, what you will say first, how you will finish the presentation. All comes with experience.
  6. Choose the right outfit, because. The speaker's clothing also plays a big role in the perception of his speech.
  7. Try to speak confidently, fluently and coherently.
  8. Try to enjoy the performance so you can be more relaxed and less anxious.

Biography Hook's father, a pastor, initially prepared him for spiritual activity, but in view of the boy's poor health and his ability to engage in mechanics, he intended him to study watchmaking. Subsequently, however, young Hooke gained an interest in scientific pursuits and consequently was sent to Westminster School, where he successfully studied languages, but was especially interested in mathematics and showed a great ability for inventions in physics and mechanics.

slide 4

His ability to study physics and chemistry was recognized and appreciated by scientists at Oxford University, where he began to study from 1653; he first became an assistant to the chemist Willis, and then to the famous Boyle. Since 1662 he was the curator of experiments at the Royal Society of London. In 1663 the Royal Society, recognizing the usefulness and importance of his discoveries, made him a member. In 1677-1683 he was the secretary of this society. Since 1664 - professor at the University of London. Robert Boyle Coat of arms of the University of Oxford

In 1665 he published "Micrographia", which describes his microscopic and telescopic observations, containing the publication of significant discoveries in biology. First depiction of living cells: drawing from Hooke's Micrographia (1665)

Slide 7

From 1667, Hooke read the Kutler Lectures on mechanics. During his 68-year life, Robert Hooke, despite poor health, was tireless in his studies, did a lot scientific discoveries, inventions and improvements. This happened more than 300 years ago: he discovered cells, the female egg and male sperm. Drawings of the Moon and Pleiades from Hooke's Micrographia

Slide 8

Hooke's discoveries include: the discovery of proportionality between elastic tensions, compressions and bends, and the stresses that produce them (Hooke's law), the correct formulation of the law gravity(Hooke's priority was disputed by Newton), the discovery of the colors of thin plates, the idea of ​​the wave-like propagation of light, the experimental substantiation of its discovery by the interference of light, the wave theory of light, the hypothesis of the transverse nature of light waves, discoveries in acoustics, the theoretical position on the essence of heat as the movement of body particles , the discovery of the constancy of the temperature of melting ice and boiling water, Boyle's law (what is Hooke's contribution here is not completely clear), a living cell (using a microscope improved by him; Hooke owns the term "cell" itself), direct evidence of the rotation of the Earth.

Slide 9

Inventions Hooke's inventions are quite varied. First, it should be said about the spiral spring for regulating the clock; this invention was made by him during the time from 1656 to 1658. On the instructions of Hooke, the watchmaker Thompson made the first watch with a regulating spring for Charles II. The Dutch mechanic, physicist and mathematician Christian Huygens applied the regulating spiral later than Hooke, but independently of him; the hooking parts invented by them are not the same. Hooke attributed the idea of ​​using a conical pendulum to regulate clocks to himself and disputed the primacy of Huygens. In 1666 he invented a spirit level, in 1665 he presented to the royal society a small quadrant in which the alidade was moved using a micrometer screw, so that it was possible to count minutes and seconds; further, when it was found convenient to replace the diopters of astronomical instruments with pipes, he suggested placing a thread grid in the eyepiece.

slide 10

In general, Hooke made many improvements in the design of dioptric and catoptric telescopes; he polished glass himself and did a lot of observations; among other things, he drew attention to the spots on the surface of Jupiter and Mars and, along with Giovanni Cassini, determined the speed of rotation of these planets around their axes by their movement. In 1684 he invented the world's first optical telegraph system. He invented many different mechanisms, in particular for constructing various geometric curves (ellipses, parabolas). Proposed a prototype of heat engines. Drawing of Saturn made from Hooke's observations

In addition, he invented an optical telegraph, a minima thermometer, an improved barometer, a hygrometer, an anemometer, a registering rain gauge; made observations in order to determine the effect of the rotation of the Earth on the fall of bodies and dealt with many physical issues, for example, about the weighing of air, about the specific gravity of ice, invented a special hydrometer to determine the degree of freshness of river water. In 1666, Hooke presented to the Royal Society a model of helical gears he had invented. These screw wheels are now known as White wheels. The cardan joint, which serves to hang lamps and compass boxes on ships, was used by Hooke to transmit rotations between two shafts intersecting under arbitrary angle. Having established the constancy of the freezing and boiling points of water, together with Huygens, around 1660, he proposed these points as reference points for the thermometer scale.
