 __Thursday 9 June 2011__ How to Solve a Crime

The Scene Of the Crime officers are a unit in the New Zealand police force. They specialize in collecting evidence in crime scenes and are trained not to disturb the crime scene. The first thing they do is walk through the crime scene trying to visualize what happened, and when they walk through a crime scene they have 1 hand in their pockets and the other holding their evidence collection case or they have both of their hands in their pockets.

After the scene of the crime specialists have sent the evidence to the lab the scientists examine and test the evidence hopefully trying to get a match. Scientists look for tiny details in fingerprints, blood and in any clothing left at the crime scene. If there is a bullet hole then they will take it to a shooting range get the same gun and try different bullets to see which bullet is the right one or they will test a type of bullet with a different gun to see if the hole is wider, deeper or smaller.

Detectives interview and take statements from people that of witnessed the crime or called in to state that there is a crime in progress or a crime has happened. They also interview suspects to try and get their side of the story. When they think they have a culprit they print a search warrant and search their house for anything that might have been stolen or like a weapon that had been used for an assault or a murder.

The train gets it’s name by using magnets to levitate. It travels faster than the normal train’s on rails. It is also has the smoothest ride in the world. The pathway for the train is a bunch of magnets and underneath the train are some more magnets.

It also has the potential of being faster and quieter than any other train using wheels. The fastest ever recorded speed was 581 kilometers per hour. <span style="color: #ff1414; display: block; font: normal normal normal 12px/normal Helvetica; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: left;"><span style="color: #000000; font-size: 120%; font: normal normal normal 12px/normal Helvetica; letter-spacing: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"> It travels fast by a magnetic pole pulling the train backand accelerating to push the train to the speed that it needs to get to the next stop. The train stops by the driver pulling a lever to either just slow down because he is going to fast or to clamp together to actually stop. underneath the train are a L shaped metal pole that the magnets rest on and when he wants to stop it closes in onto the pole in the middle and it begins to stop.

<span style="font-size: 130%; font: normal normal normal 12px/normal Helvetica; letter-spacing: 0px; margin: 0px;">General Statement: <span style="font-size: 130%; font: normal normal normal 12px/normal Helvetica; letter-spacing: 0px; margin: 0px;">Light is made up from billions of photons which comes from the sun. The sun is shooting billions of photons in every direction and the ones that hit earth are called light.

<span style="font-size: 130%; font: normal normal normal 12px/normal Helvetica; letter-spacing: 0px; margin: 0px;">Explanation: <span style="font-size: 130%; font: normal normal normal 12px/normal Helvetica; letter-spacing: 0px; margin: 0px;">Scientists have proven that light travels at 313,000,000 mps not very any things can travel that fast. Light travels slower when it hit ting that are dense materials such as water, glass and plastic and JELL-O. This is called a refraction.

<span style="font-size: 130%; font: normal normal normal 12px/normal Helvetica; letter-spacing: 0px; margin: 0px;">Light can bend. Light bends when it enters a substance at an angle

<span style="font-size: 130%; font: normal normal normal 12px/normal Helvetica; letter-spacing: 0px; margin: 0px;">Light gives us many things. It gives us color, things that run on solar power to work, can make cars move, help plants grow, starts fires etc. If we did not have light then we would have no warmth.
