• Becky’s Education: As discussed in the education analysis, I recommend that you sell your EE Savings Bonds and use the funds to make a contribution into a 529 Savings Plan for Becky. However, this lump sum will not be enough money to cover all education costs, so I also recommend that you invest $150 monthly into the 529 Savings Plan. • Mia’s Art Gallery: The future value of Mia’s art gallery is $136,194.64. In order to reach this goal $248.89 will need to be saved monthly in the moderately…

oC which is close to room temperature. With increasing stress or temperature, what changes will you notice in a typical creep curve? When you increase temperature or stress, the creep curve will increase in terms of creep strain. A larger strain rate is shown which correlates to a shorter curve. This implies that fracture will occur sooner when stress or temperature is increased. Does chromel have a well-defined secondary creep stage? Explain your answer. No. When you look at the…

that influence the rate of diffusion across a membrane are: ~ the extent of the concentration gradient – the greater the difference in concentration on either side of the membrane, the faster the rate of diffusion ~ the mass of molecules diffusing – the heavier they are, the slower they will diffuse across the membrane ~ the distance travelled – this places an upper limit on cell size and functions as a resistance factor; distance travelled is indirectly proportional to the rate of diffusion ~…

The budget presentation for the Lieutenant Governor’s Office was headed by Ryan Cherry, Lieutenant Governor Hutchinson's Chief of Staff. The budget proposal for the Office of the Lieutenant Governor is $1.18 million (biennium) which includes, but not limited to: five full time employees, operational costs, fiscal and personnel functions.

The agency that I have chosen to research is Share, which is located in Vancouver, Washington. This in a non-profit agency which serves the local community and Clark County in the pursuit in ending homelessness. The main office is located at 2500 Main Street in Vancouver, with offices and facilities scattered throughout the county. The mission of Share is to lead the hungry and the homeless to self-sufficiency by providing food, shelter, housing, education, advocacy, and compassion through…

ratio. This report uses monthly return data of the 10 major sectors in the ASX300 from January 2004 until December 2015. The analysis is based on the assumptions, that the investor has the possibility to borrow or lend money at the same risk-free rate of 0,4% per month and is able to short-sell his assets without any transaction costs. In comparison with the actual ASX300 index returns, equal weighted portfolios and overall expected industry returns basis this approach should be analysed to…

Jenna will have a Qualcomm Snapdragon 810 phone processor. The processor has an 8 core CPU, and an Adreno 430 GPU (Graphics processing unit) (Open GL ES, 3.1, and DirectX 11.2; both desktop-class graphics protocols). The processor also has an LTE(Long-Term Evolution) internet capability(450 mbps down/up), bluetooth 4.1(most commonly used bluetooth standard), and 802.11n/ac(newest/fastest wifi standard). The back of the chip is covered with hundreds of pins that are usually formatted to fit into…

The time required for the filter paper to float reflects the enzyme movement immensely. The enzyme movement is slower when there is a greater amount of time for the reaction to occur. As the temperature increased, the reaction time was quicker. For example, the class average for the substrate temperature “Hot” was 7.28 seconds, which was a drastic change from the temperature “Cold” of 66.54 seconds. The reason behind the change was that heat makes molecules move quicker, and cold makes molecules…

What factor affected the rate of the reaction when comparing the whole Alka Seltzer tablet to the crushed Alka Seltzer tablet? The factor that affected the rate of reaction is the Alka Seltzer size. Even though both cups contained the same materials, crushing the Alka Seltzer created smaller particles which allowed for a bigger surface area…

Reaction Time Definition: Reaction time is the speed at which the brain responds to a stimulus and formulates a response. This is vital in most sports. The most obvious example is responding to the gun at the start of a race, but another example is a goalkeeper saving a penalty. Importance: Sprinters need a fast reaction time so that they can react to the gun at the start of the race and begin moving as soon as they hear it. This gives them a better start and for such a short race every fraction…
