In “Why We Love TV’s Anti-Heroes,” Stephen Garrett argues that the actual nature of the hero has changed over the past few decades, and as a result the protagonists that we embrace are largely different as well. Arguing that “the heroes of today are radically different from those of two or three decades ago [and that t]hey have evolved to represent a radically changed world,” (Garrett, p. 319) Garrett claims that empathy is more important than respect when it comes to choosing a hero to emulate. Consider the highly popular program House, M.D. Thirty years ago, the hero of the ...

The rock I will be examining in this report is granite. Granite – is the most commonly spread rock in the continental crust formed by the slow cooling and solidification of magmatic melting rocks in depth. Granite can also be formed during metamorphism – under the influence of high temperature and pressure, as well as under the influence of a variety of liquids and gases (fluids), rising from the depths. Granites play a huge role in the structure of the Earth`s crust and the whole continents, since this solid rock is one of the main materials forming the outer part of the ...

What had been a question of values and ethics has now become an issue of corporate policy. Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) has been globally accepted by the firms in the twenty first century, in order to fulfil their moral obligations to the society that is giving to them profits and gains. One can get several examples these days where big multi-national firms (MNEs) are lending a hand towards the betterment of the society. For example: Volkswagen India initiated a programme in Maharashtra's draught stricken community by offering to expand their water reserves.

ABSTRACT

In the vibrating beam experiment, an aluminum cantilever beam was made to vibrate. An accelerometer transducer was used to convert the mechanical vibrations into a signal that was fed into an oscilloscope via a power supply. The oscilloscope mapped the signal into a sine curve and displayed it on the screen.
The oscillations’ decay curve was studied and the beam’s damping ratio was determined. The decay curve’s logarithmic decrement was used to determine the beam’s damping ratio and its natural frequency.
The beam’s damping ratio was observed to be underdamped at a damping ratio of 0.0066.

Introduction

Natural disasters are bound to happen in any region of the country or continent. Such occurrences mostly result in very catastrophic damages to lives and property. They can derail the economic development of any country as they rob off the necessary resources needed for development (Quarantelli, 1988). Although there is nothing that can be done to prevent these occurrences, a country can do something to reduce the negative impacts of natural disasters. Any country must be ready to prepare for any natural disaster. Resources required before, during and after any natural incident need to be readily available to compact these ...

Theory

A magnetic field refers to magnetic control of electric currents and the magnetic materials, specified by both direction and strength. It results from moving electric charges and the magnetic moments of elementary particles related with their spin. It can also be defined as its force exerted on a charged particle in motion. Magnetic field lines normally form in concentric circles around a current currying conductor cylindrical in nature for example a length of wire. The strength of the magnetic field is inversely proportional to the length of the wire or the distance for an infinite length.

Physics practical report: determining the range of a radiation and the energy content

Introduction
Most of the radiations emitted by sources usually emanate from radioactive isotopes. These isotopes may be naturally radioactive or the emission may be induced by an external source of energy. Natural isotopes are mainly elements whose atomic mass exceeds 208. For this reason, the atomic size is very large creating an aspect of imbalance in charge within the atom. The highly positively charged nucleus does not feel the same magnitude of negative charge effect from the electron cloud surrounding the nucleus. This makes the nucleus to disintegrate naturally to release some energy as it scales down the ...

REPORT: Landscape Planning and Ecological Management: Plantation of bare root common trees.

Introduction
We often take trees and other flora, all around us, for granted maybe because almost all of us have seen trees and captured the word and their image deep inside our sub-consciousness. As we grow up, we learn about the benefits and advantages of trees parrot-fashion. No person or entity teaches us anything about the aesthetics so when we see captivating landscape photographs and images, we take in the beauty without taking in the trees. It is beyond this point that most of us change directions and go off towards modern, fast-process systems, which we then proceed ...
