otherwise known as popular culture trends, are usually thought to originate independently without correlation. Could there be a pattern behind these epidemics? Gladwell, a New York Times staff writer, answers this question in his 2000 book, The Tipping Point. In this book, Gladwell discusses several social epidemics, including the sudden popularity of the Hush Puppy shoe, and why crime rates in New York city dropped by 60% in only 5 years. He then analyzes them and determines what factors all…

My first day of riding roller coasters. Over the summer, my family and I went to Silver Dollar City and I decided to face my fear. No, I am not afraid of roller coasters, but I am afraid of heights.

But, my little brother and I don’t really care for them. He doesn’t like them because he doesn’t like the feeling of falling…

Data Type Description and example use **You must provide an example of what each data type could be used for** String A data type used in programmings such as an integer and floating point unit, but is used to represent text rather than numbers. • I bought 3 CD’s which were from 3 different artists. It shows that I bought it from 3 different people. • If (Option 1==Option 2) If the values are the same, then it is true. If they are different, then it is false. • Usernames are an example of…

difference in freezing point of the pure solvent and the solution with the unknown solute. This lab will show case one of the colligative properties of a solution. This property is dependent upon the number of solute molecules or ions and not the identity or chemical property of the solute. A common example is water which both freezes and melts at 0°C no matter the amount of water or the size of the ice chunk. The freezing point depression phenomenon refers to the decrease in freezing point of…

There’s nothing like the sound of the echoing of balls bouncing, and shoes squeaking on the hardwood floor of a gym. For me this was a very familiar place and sound of the many years playing the sport I love, the game of basketball. This time I wasn’t the one playing, I was coaching.

are properties of a solution that depend on the amount of solute dissolved, and not dependent on the identity of the solute. The colligative properties studied in this current chapter of chemistry are: vapor pressure lowering, boiling point elevation, freezing point depression, and osmotic pressure. The van’t Hoff factor for a solute is equivalent to the number of particles, in moles, will break apart in the solvent. When an…

Some internet service providers believed they should be allowed to charge content providers, such as Netflix or YouTube, for using the internet service provider 's infrastructure to connect with the content provider 's users.
