From Potter's Field

Imagine you’re world being turned around from living peacefully and happy to murdering people that you don’t want just to stay alive. This is what people had to go through in Cambodia when Khmer Rouge, a radical Communist regime, came to power in 1975. They started to move people in the countryside and made everyone work, even childrens. Millions of people died by starvation and sickness. In Never Fall Down by Patricia McCormick, people’s physiological states changes three ways, person's…

provide movement for a vehicle. When an electric current, magnetic field or external force acts on a coil found inside of the motor, it will provide force to it, thus causing the coil to move, the coil rotates on a half turn basis otherwise the motor is forced to stop and will not move. The Motor Effect Motor effect refers to a current carrying wire in place of a magnetic field, the wire experiences a force, instead of the magnetic field producing it. You can measure the force by using the…

The soft, green grass was sprinkled with shards of mirrored glass; the mirror had been through so much pressure after going through the force field three times. Kate could hear it shatter into a billion pieces when Mr. Jacks and his bulldog passed through the force field. Mr. Jacks looked relieved as if he were a bird let free and his bulldog just looked straight up tired. Kate started to feel her head pound because the adrenaline shooting through her body started to fizzle out and she hadn’t…

practicality and what is unreasonable. A middle aged farmer, Ray Kinsella who obsesses over a baseball diamond to the point in which it almost causes financial turmoil builds a baseball field to watch the ghost of Shoeless Joe Jackson play ball. While many just argue he is just a hardworking American with a dream to build a field, it is easy to see the absurdity of his mission. However, as Ray and many others are taught to believe really true? Can you achieve anything you…

depressed, self-pitying teenager with little ambition. However, Ferris coerces him to go on an adventure through the city of Chicago. Their adventure brings joy to Cameron, as he laughs and enjoys himself at various Chicago landmarks, such as Wrigley Field. As he goes along with Ferris on their adventure, Cameron slowly realizes that there are wonderful things to be done in life. The progression of Cameron’s demeanor conveys the message of Ferris Bueller’s Day Off, as he learns to just take a…

be calculated by the relation; ac =1/ρac (6) The variation of AC electrical conductivity in high frequency range 1MHz-3GHz for all the samples is plotted as shown in figure 3. From the figure it is shown that the AC conductivity of all given samples is increased with the rise in frequency. It can be seen from the figure that at low frequency there is little or no frequency dependence while for higher frequencies ac conductivity increases linearly with frequency. The ac conductivity (ac)…

conditions at maximum torque. It is easier to conduct an experimental study on the behavior of a hysteresis motor under starting conditions than the second operating conditions. Furthermore, the starting behavior of hysteresis motors is of great importance from two perspectives: 1) usually the maximum torque of hysteresis motors is produced under the starting conditions. It consists of two components of hysteresis torque and induction torque. However, the induction torque is not produced at…

To gather information about mechanical engineering, I interviewed Graham Jessup, a graduate from the University of Washington and a mechanical engineer at Electroimpact Engineering; a company based in Mukilteo Washington. Electroimpact is a world leader in design and manufacturing of aerospace tooling and automation. During the interview that took place through several emails, I learned much about what mechanical engineers are required to know, and how they use that knowledge to fully accomplish…

Shell oil began functioning out of Nigeria in 1937 under the name Shell D’Arcy. Upon discovering the first commercial oil field in 1956 in the Niger Delta, Shell Nigeria began exporting oil in the year of 1958 and has been doing so ever since. At one time, oil exportation was seen as a way to transition from relying solely on the agriculture industry for exportation and move into what was thought to be the booming economy of oil. The locals of the Niger Delta area have experienced little to no…

Main motives to be present in South-East Asia The Company Shell was created because its founder Mister Zijiker found oil in South-East Asia (Sumatra) in 1883 and since then Shell is active in getting petroleum and natural gas from this region. Due to technological innovations in the industry, the political developments in these countries surrounding Southeast Asia and the arising of Japan as a hotspot for petroleum trade operations led that nowadays Southeast Asia has become the most active area…
