Introduction

Tension forces act on liquid surfaces, the thread in them is pulled into circular arcs. The pull is referred to as surface tension of the liquid. Surface tension exists uniformly in all directions. The forces affect the shape and motion of liquids that have open surfaces. Tension forces can be understood regarding forces that occur between the molecules. Repulsion occurs in molecules when they are close but attract when they are far from each other. Inside the liquid, molecules are close to each other. Thus, there are slight repulsions. Molecules at the surface of the liquid are some distance ...

As the influence of Britain declined after World War II, Australia reinforced its relations with USA. The task of forming a relationship began in 1942 and was concluded in 1951 with the formal formation of the ANZUS (Australia-New Zealand-US) treaty. The pact was a security treaty, which united the three countries against potential aggressors who thought that they stood alone in the South Pacific region (Capling, 2005). Economic treaty of Australia and US was first planned in 1946. However, in the beginning of 1980, the Hawk administration began negotiations with USA on a trade treaty. The same was also advocated by Bush ...

Abstract—In this experiment, a hand dynamometer was used to measure the grip strength of a subject. The forearm muscles were engaged in an activity, and the grip recorded. The electromyogram (EMG) activity was related to the grip strength by making a graph of the maximum grip strength against area under the EMG activity’s absolute integral during the contraction of muscle. Data was recorded from the dominant and non-dominant forearms of the subject and the electrical activity of each forearm compared to its diameter. Prolonged grip strength ...

Introduction

Newton's Second Law of motion asserts that the acceleration of an object exhibits a direct proportional relationship with the subsequent force acting on it. It explores the relationship that exists between force, mass and acceleration as exhibited by an object. This experiment examines Newton's Second Law of motion by enabling a dwindling weight to speed up a glider of recognised quantity along a track. A thread that links the dwindling mass to the glider is passed above a smart pulley (Knight, 2004). It is imperative to note that the smart pulley exhibits insignificant inertia, low friction and its revolution ...

Heliotrope Enterprises

Executive Summary
Lower back pain is a common symptom prompting clinic visits in the University. The standard treatment is pain-relieving medications and rest from exertion but current trends in health care point to the increasing use of complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) in the treatment of lower back pain. The use of CAM is motivated by patients’ desire to avoid the side effects of frequent pain medication use. However, many CAM modalities only result in short-term pain relief which decreases patient satisfaction with these treatments.

There is a growing concern that the search for exponential economic growth brings about the degradation of the environment. According to Carter, the tension between economic growth and environmental protection lies at the heart of environmental politics (Carter 27). Today, the society and especially politicians who are affiliated to environmental issues only recognize the world’s dependence on the resources that the earth provides. These natural elements are such as oxygen and water. However, they fail to notice the connection between land and the economy. The profundity of this interdependence is hidden by our search for economic growth and ...

Glocalizaton concept and its relation to standardization-adaptation debate in marketing literature review

What is glocalization
Glocolization is a term that was introduced in early 90s by Robertson, it comes from combination of two words; globalization as well as localization. The globalization refers to the flexibility that is brought about by countries allowing the international forces to have impact on their local market environments, so as to attain some economic growth. Furthermore the term localization refers to the reiterating that is brought about by regions in order to maintain and protect some local culture and local conditions from them being carried away completely by the globalization forces. Therefore, glocalization attempts to balance ...

Introduction

Bend (flexure) testing is often done in springs as well in brittle materials whose behaviors of failure are linear like concrete, wood, plastic, glass and ceramics. Bend testing is suitable for evaluating the strength of brittle materials where the results of tensile tests aren’t easy to interpret due to the breaking of specimens around the gripping (Schoffstall, Charles, and Robert 234). In bend testing experiment, smooth rectangular specimens without notches are recommended under three or four point bend arrangements. Figure I below illustrates three point and four point bend arrangements respectively.

Abstract of the Tensile Test

Tensile tests are instrumental in understanding the properties of various materials and the way will behave when subjected to a load. Four different materials were subjected to tensile test using universal testing machine. The materials that were tested were: steel and nylon. The data obtained from each experiment was used to calculate and graphically determine some of the valuable properties of the materials such as, yield stress, ultimate tensile strength and young’s modulus. The material properties obtained from the various test were compared with the theoretical values and also amongst the materials themselves. The tensile test results showed that ...

Introduction

Transpiration is the process involving the movement of water from the roots through the xylem to the atmosphere via the stomata. About 95% of the water absorbed by plants is transpired to the atmosphere. The plant uses the remaining 5% for its metabolic functions such as photosynthesis and respiration (Ahmadi and Baker, 259).
The movement of water in the vascular plant is as a result of the coordination among the three plant organs: the root, the stem, and the leaf. Roots have root hairs located toward its growing tip. The root hairs form extensions of the epidermal cells referred ...

Qualitative Research

Introduction
The field of social sciences is primarily concerned with making sense of the world around us. The question of how to study the social world, however, unleashes a number of intense philosophical debates. These debates chiefly revolve around ‘ontological’ issues, denoting ‘what is there to know about the world’. Ontological debates concern themselves with questions about whether the social world contains truths independent of human observation or whether it is human interpretation that gives meaning to phenomena. Hidden in this debate is the tension between qualitative and quantitative research methods and the tension over the use of numbers ...

Experiment 11

Introduction:
When a body moves in a circle and its angular speed changes, the body experiences an angular acceleration. Torque gives the body an angular acceleration. Rotating a body necessitates to overcome rotational inertia of the body, known as its moment of inertia. In highly symmetrical cases it is feasible to develop formulas for calculating moment of inertia of a body. In this part of the experiment, a constant torque was applied to a circular disk that could rotate on a low friction bearing. The disk span up to a higher angular speed. Object of this experiment was to calculate the disk's angular acceleration and relate it ...

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 ...
