Tesla wrote many autobiographical articles for the prominent journal Electrical Experimenter, collected in the book, My Inventions. Tesla was gifted with intense powers of visualization and exceptional memory from early youth on. He was able to fully construct, develop and perfect his inventions completely in his mind before committing them to paper.

The book Nikola Tesla (1856-1943) - Lectures, Patents, Articles, now out of print, is the first major reference work published by the Nikola Tesla Museum in Beograd about the inventor. The edition appeared in 1956 and the book was subsequently reprinted in 1991. It contains the text of four lectures delivered by Tesla during the period between 1888 and 1893 plus one delivered in absentia in 1898. As for patents, the book contains only those granted to Tesla in the United States; the compilers chose to include only 99 of the 112 patents actually issued to him. Additionally there are 17 scientific and technical articles written between 1891 and 1920, 7 articles of a general nature written between 1897 and 1917, and an autobiographical article from 1915.

None during his lifetime. There's an award named after him, and Casino Royale won Best Motion Picture Screenplay, but he never really won anything.

Among the many awards and honors to his credit, Nikola Tesla was the recipient of Edison Medal in 1917. The International Unit of Magnetic Flux Density was named after him and is called "Tesla". A commemorative stamp was taken out by US Postal Services in the year 1983. The Order of Danilo was conferred upon him by King Nikola of Montenegro. To recognize his contributions in the field of electrical engineering, the 'Nikola Tesla' award was instituted in 1976 by the Institute of Electrical Engineers. July 10th every year is celebrated as Nikola Tesla Day in the United States.

Hooke most famously describes a fly's eye and a plant cell. Although the book is best known for demonstrating the power of the microscope, Micrographia also describes the wave theory of light, planetary bodies, , and various scientific interests of Robert Hooke. The book was published by The Royal Society in September 1665 and was first scientific best seller.

The oldest women's athletics Olympic records were set at the 1980 Games in Moscow: 1) Shot Put - Ilona Slupanek of East Germany set the Olympic record with a shot of 22.41 meters (73 feet, 6 1/4 inches) on July 24, 1980.

2) 800 meters - Nadezhda Olizarenko of USSR set the Olympic record at 1:53.43 on July 27, 1980.

3) 4x100 meter relay - The East German team of Romy Muller, Barbel Wockel, Ingrid Auerswald, and Marlies Gohr set the Olympic record of 41.60 seconds on August 1, 1980. The oldest men's athletics Olympic record is Bob Beamon's (USA) long jump of 8.90 meters (29 feet, 2 1/2 inches) set at the 1968 Games in Mexico City on October 18, 1968.

Trees or other natural elements that are in their path. As well as trees and roots, bumps in the snow or ice on the piste can slow down skiers and cause them to fall.

Sports Engineers usually practice as mechanical engineers upon first leaving University, as such I would imagine they had salaries very similar. Mycareer.edu.au estimates that this salary would be on average around 112,500. SWWEEEET!!!

Apart from the competitors, there are a whole host of people that accompanies olympic teams; including judges, medic staff, coaches (including dietary advisors as some teams even take chefs for their star competitors), and last but not least there are the country specific IOC members and country specific olympic committee members (i.e. the British Olympic Committee). Worringly there now seems to be a movement for the inclusion of sports lawyers to accompany teams (hardly in the ideal of the olympics).

In general, sedentary females from 19 to 31 age group consume 2,000 calories per day whereas males need about 2,400 but from 31 to 50 age group sedentary females require 1,800 calories daily and males need 2,200. the enegry of sedentary people is not utilized in work as they don't work hard so their energy is only utilize to sustain their internal body activities. Contrary to them, the ''athletes need'' more ''energy, ''vitamins, minerals and proteins during workouts. More protein is needed to rebuild the muscles ''between'' workouts. Therefore, ''athletes need'' more carbohydrate, fat and protein than ''sedentary'' persons, Mathematically, may be, 4 or 5 times more energy is needed to A athlete as compared to sedentary person.

They could use it for anything from very simple calculations to more complicated formulas using functions of special categories like Engineering, Maths, Logical, Trigonometry, Statistics etc. There are many ways a scientist could use these. Mathematics is a crucial part of many scientific areas. Excel has also got capabilities for doing things like charts and many other things which can be of use to a scientist.
