programs for parents, teachers, and students alike that outline proper eating habits as well as potential side effects of failure to adhere to a nutritious diet. A person is considered obese if they have a body mass index (BMI) in excess of 30 (Mahmood, 2015, p.6). Given that the body mass index chart is not 100 percent accurate, health care providers measure waist circumference and complete a triceps skinfold test, to facilitate a program specific to that patient’s needs. Provided that, there…

An audacious claim to make about the villain of the late 20th century, however, surprisingly Tiemeyer does not speak without compelling…

How much it bends depends on the refractive indices of the two mediums which is a ratio of the speed of light in one medium compared with the second. For example the refractive index (n) of crown glass can be calculated as it passes from air into crown glass Total internal reflection occurs when the refractive index of the first medium is more than that of the second. The angle of incidence is the angle that a ray of light hits an interface between two mediums relative to the normal. As…
