Introduction It is not only the immediate area surrounding the impact that would be affected by the collision. Meteorological phenomena resulting from the impact would also have a large effect on life on Earth. In particular, earthquakes resulting from the meteor would do much damage to cities and infrastructure. Our meteor is 2 kilometers in diameter, and has a mass of 9.07x1012 kilograms. Should a meteor of this size collide with Earth, the impact would cause earthquakes that have the…

I am sure that all of us have had a moment where we panic because we forgot about a quiz and we didn’t study for it. But have you been handed a study guide and you aren’t able to do anything on it? In middle school, I took Advanced Geometry and Honors Algebra 2 together in the same year. In geometry class, we were just given a worksheet, and we were expected to understand how to do it from looking at the examples provided at the top of the worksheet. We would get at least three…

with a vertex at the sun. He used a form of integral calculus, as we know it today. Again in 1614, the mathematical community was baffled by John Napier’s “invention” of logarithmic functions. It was later discovered that Jobst Bürgi had developed logarithms first however, he failed to publish his work first. Blaise Pascal, born in 1623 to Antoinette and Etienne Pascal. From a very early age Pascal showed an interest in math just like his skilled father. Due to Etienne Pascal’s unconventional…

The Evolution of Curriculum in Post-Secondary Education Throughout the 1700s, nine colleges (Harvard, Yale, Princeton, William and Mary, Dartmouth, University of Pennsylvania, Rutgers, Brown, and Columbia) were founded throughout the thirteen original colonies for religious purposes. While each of these colleges were either secular or had different religious denominations, all of these colleges had their curriculum modeled after that in the English college system. This curriculum included…

According to Oxford dictionary, the Mind is the element of a person that enables them to be aware of the world and their experiences, to think and to feel. It is the faculty of consciousness and thought. While the body is the physical structure (internal and external) of a person. When it says the mind helps a person to feel, the feeling it is talking about are the emotional feelings. As we know, the body also helps one to feel the environment and the physical pain. So how is the mind and the…

invented Z1 to speed up calculation while studying the construction of buildings and roads. These types of constructions involved huge systems of linear equations that were tedious to perform given the level of technology at that time which was the logarithm rule and basic mechanical calculators…

The following equation 3.5, 3.6 and 3.7 used to compute Land surface Emissivity, mean of LST and change of LSE of Band 10 and 11, respectively. LSE=0.004Pv+0.986 Eq. (3.5) Mean of LST= (LST10+LST11)/2 Eq. (3.6) Difference of land surface emissivity (LSE) =LSE10-LSE11…

equilibrium constants (Ka and Kb) are intrinsic properties of a particular weak/base pair. Ka defines the manner in which conjugate base holds on to the H+ (proton) while Kb describes the ‘stickiness’ of a weak acid for hydroxide ions(OH-). Taking the logarithm of…

Throughout history, prices were set between sellers and buyers through negotiations with one another. Usually in these circumstances, sellers would ask for higher prices, while buyers would offer less for certain goods or services. Through deals, they would come to a mutual agreement of price acceptance. Price is the only attribute in marketing mix that yields revenue, all other attributes produce costs (Kotler, 1997). Companies often use different pricing techniques to stimulate early purchase…

3.7. Equilibrium isotherms Langmuir isotherm proposed by Langmuir, (1918) with some limitations Dąbrowski, (2001) expressed as: (4) Where qm (mg g–1) is the maximum amount of the metal ion per unit weight of adsorbent, ‘qe’ is equilibrium adsorption capacity (mg g–1), ‘Ce’ is the equilibrium concentration of the adsorbate (mg L–1), and b is a constant which reveals the affinity of binding sites (L mg-1). From the plots between (Ce/qe ) and Ce the slope (1/qm ) and the intercept…
