The term "demand" in economics means payment need, i.e. need that the subject is able to pay. From this definition it follows that the demand for a particular commodity (service) depends on the price. This means that the increase in commodity prices will lead to a decrease in demand, and, conversely, a decrease in prices will lead to higher demand. The relationship between price and quantity demanded is stable. (Agarwal, 2013) The cause of the change in demand is change. This reverse causal relationship between price and quantity demanded is the law of demand. The law of demand manifests ...

Ultraviolet light (UV light) is a type of electromagnetic radiation that is located between visible light and X-rays in the electromagnetic spectrum. It is invisible to the human eye, and has a frequency greater than that of visible light but lesser than X-rays. It has a wavelength ranging from about 10 nm to 400 nm (ISO, 2007). UV light is a part of the radiation that comes from the sun. It can also be produced artificially by electric arcs, black lights, tanning lamps and mercury vapor lamps. The name Ultraviolet literally translates to “beyond violet”, as it has a ...

Response to an Audit Report Inquiry

Dear Dominique, I am writing this email in response to your request for clarification and explanation on the different types of audit reports. Generally, audit reports give an appraisal of a company or business’s financial performance and status during a specified period of time. These reports are usually completed by an independent accounting professional (internal or external), and cover the company’s assets and liabilities. Audit reports represent the auditor’s assessment of the company’s financial position and future status. In many countries, audit reports are required by law if the company is publicly traded or operates ...

Abstract

Public safety agencies have a tendency to ignore leadership succession planning and the formal development of future leaders. A combination of budget cuts, a lack of internal interest, increased public scrutiny, and politics means that public agencies often do not prepare for leadership changes. The average leadership tenure in the public sector has a reputation for being more extensive than the private sector, which is perhaps one of the reasons why public agencies do not place as much importance on succession planning. The average tenure of leaders in fire and rescue agencies is shortening due to increased job demands ...

Introduction

Meteorology is a study concerned with atmospheric phenomena. The study entails an array of other different fields which include chemistry, physics, and dynamics of the atmosphere. It further encompasses a number of the effects the atmosphere creates upon the surface of the earth, oceans, and life. Meteorology is considered to be one of the oldest observational sciences in the human history and probably the most relevant discipline to a broad segment of the society (Holton, 2014).

History of Meteorology

The Co-Cultural Communication Theory is defined as a theory that encompasses the different co-cultural groups that have been associated with negative cultural connotations, (Holton, S., 1998). The theory itself was principally created by a scholar by the name of Orbe who sought to uncover the similarities between members of co-cultures who were viewed as inferior to other members of a dominant society, (Holton, S., 1998). The Co-Cultural Communication Theory can absolutely be applied to how Blacks as a minority have been treated within American society. Unfortunately, there has been a great divide between Blacks and whites along with other ...

Abstract

The aim of the experiment was to determine the relationship between the diameter of a steel ball and its terminal velocity in glycerol. Four balls with different diameters were put in a transparent cylinder full of glycerol. The velocity of the ball was calculated based on the time taken for the ball to pass from one mark on the cylinder to another. The results showed that an increase in the diameter of the steel ball leads to an increase in terminal velocity. Besides, the results show that the larger the diameter of the steel ball is, the faster the ...
