The analysts attributed the success of McDonald’s to the “Plan to ...

Caffeine is present in tea leaves and can be readily extracted. This is the producer that was demonstrated in this laboratory experiment. In the laboratory experiment, the teabags were heated to ebullition for five minutes. The ebullition was sequenced by an extraction which applied dichloromethane. All of the washings occurred in a separator funnel. The residual substrate was subsequently evaporated up to the point of where the crude caffeine remained as a residual. Sublimation was applied in order to separate the purified caffeine from the crude caffeine. The mass of the sublimate is was 0.0035g. The percentage yield of the caffeine ...

Animal research is a serious subject that has caused great controversy over the years. While some people believe animals should not be tested, so to prevent animals from suffering and maltreatment, others advocate the opposite, and support animal research in order to help save both human and animal lives. It is estimated that more than 20 million animals are used in biomedical research projects, mainly because they share organs similar to humans, as well as other animals, and in most cases, they are prone to the exact same diseases that also affect humans (American Association for Laboratory Animal Science). Ever ...

Since its creation in the 17th century the mathematics of calculus allows different fields of study the ability for measuring change and motion connected with natural and physical science including medical research and proactive applications of medicine. With the onset of the 21st century, the advances in mathematical insights forming definitions and theorems underpin the variety of uses of calculus in medicine. Calculus provides the abstract mathematical understanding of varieties of professional fields. These include economic trends, biological probabilities with ocean currents, meteorologist calculations of upper atmosphere airflow for weather prediction, and space scientists designing remarkable aircraft for space ...

Calculus is widely used in various professional fields such as in engineering, statistics, physics, economics and architecture. Calculus is also considered as the language that scientists, engineers and economists use due to its capability to model and also control numerous systems. The tasks performer by these professionals usually has a massive impact on people’s lives such as in communication, medicine, electronics, economy, transport and also in national defense. Calculus is widely applied in the field of engineering in modeling and controlling systems. Electrical engineer often uses integration in determining the precise length of power cables that are required ...

Externality is a situation in which the activity of one entity affects the welfare of another entity in a way that is outside the existing market (Rosen, 2005, p. 47). Simply put, externalities are the costs or benefits that arise from market transactions which are not reflected in prices. And when we speak of negative externalities, obviously, these are costs to third parties (other than the producer and consumer). Why is there negative externality? I learnt from Economics that under a competitive system, the market price of a good takes into account both the negative and positive effects of using the good. However, ...

The optimum size of company is a very fundamental issue o put into consideration for the growth of the company. Size can have drawbacks and benefits in assisting the management in maximizing the level of output. However, there are those factors that determine the size of the firm. In most cases farm expands their production due to the economies of scale. When the company grows or expands, it is able to take advantage of machine utilization, cost reduction, and bulk discount among others. Large companies have the cost advantage over the small companies due to economies of scale. This ...

Since as far back as society dates, the death penalty has been used as a means to punish severe crimes. Many societies have determined that taking a life unjustly of another should lead to the forfeit of one’s own life. In the 18th century BC, The Code of King Hammurabi of Babylon employed the death penalty for the punishment of twenty-five crimes. The first death sentence recorded was in 16th century BC Egypt. Christian Old Testament law, based of an “eye for an eye” based law required one committing a crime to make amends. Under that, murder could only be made ...
