gained/lost. The larger the gradient, the more mass is gained (or lost), explaining the larger magnitude in percent change of the masses of the potatoes collected. Possible sources of errors affect the accuracy of the results in the experiment as the calculations of the data fluctuates. This further affects the conclusion drawn from the lab. One possible source of error created during this lab is the initial mass of the potato slices. Although the initial mass of the potatoes were precisely…

The newest advancements in the automotive industry are coming in the form of artificial intelligence. Having assisted-driving cars can relieve stress from driving and increase traffic safety; however, they may also introduce new moral dilemmas. Patrick Lin, the director of Ethics and Emerging Sciences at California Polytechnic, poses a scenario of assisted-driving cars with an adjustable ethics setting and who would be responsible for the actions of the car. How the responsibility is divided…

A fungible security can be issued, the first time, in form of a fixed size then subsequent issues are matched.

According to results of the calculation of wind velocity and wind pressure, that shows the typical distributions.Thus explains why, while wind velocity increases less than linearly with height, pressure instead increases as a nearly linear function of height. Wind pressure is thus positive…
