Books are something that a lot of people in today’s society likely take for granted. Whether they are avid readers or someone who only picks up a book when absolutely necessary, it is unlikely that when picking up that book one thinks of it as something rare. Books on almost any topic can be found at several libraries and bookstores all across the world, but there was a time where books were as rare and expensive as precious metals and gems. Johannes Gutenberg was a fifteenth century German…

Mercury 's Surface Geology: according to the information gathered by the probes sent to Mercury, this planet has a surface that resembles in some manner the surface of our Moon, with craters and maria as its most prominent features. Furthermore, there are other structures that, albeit not as common as impact craters, make up the surface of Mercury, such as vents - that are thought to be the source for magma-carved valleys on Mercury - and irregular depressions named "hollows", probably generated…

I. Conclusion Yes, soccer can be a very dangerous sports! After doing my research, reading, and observing about all the violent cases in soccer, I have come to the conclusion that the sport itself can be a very dangerous thing to play and cheer for. The violence in soccer has become an impossible thing to manage and even avoid in getting between. For example; In the year of 2014 I had a near experience with soccer violence between torcidas organizadas myself. I was watching the soccer match…

Kevin and Kelvin), and a few minutes later forget who was who. Now imagine, walking into a room of physically and genetically identical friends, hundreds of them, how would you be able to recognize your closest friends to those that are mere strangers, and how are…

The effect of altering temperature on the rate of liver enzyme activity is measured in this experiment to be able to visualize how temperature in the environment and in the body can manipulate the rate of enzyme activity. Enzymes are protein catalysts that lower the amount of activation energy required to start a biochemical reaction. According to Dr. Meyertholen (2015), enzymes are structured to work with certain substrates, meaning that the structure determines the function of the enzyme. If…

between 1869-1877) in 1876, celebrating the 100th anniversary of the signing of the United States Declaration of Independence. Almost 10 million people went to see the exhibits. Accompanying President Grant was Emperor Dom Pedro ii of Brazil and Lord Kelvin of England. “The Main Building measured 1,880 by 464 feet, covering twenty acres... Inside, the center had a high ceiling with four towers connected by stairs, bridges, and one technological advance: an…

Solar flares occur as a result of the build-up of magnetic energy inside the solar atmosphere which is released through the process of a sudden flash of brightness on the sun’s surface. The magnetic energy built up is released from the corona of the sun in the form of radiation across the whole electromagnetic. [10] For a solar flare to take place it requires an incredible 6 × 1025 Joules which is over 25,000 times more energy than that released throughout the impact of the Shoemaker-Levy 9…

its transformation into mechanical energy. It bypasses the molecular details of systems and focuses on the macroscopic levels of mechanical work, pressure, temperature, and their roles in energy transformation. Coined by the British physicist Lord Kelvin, the scale of thermodynamics is measured in units of "K". Zero K, or -273˚ C, would represent absolute zero. Absolute zero is the temperature at which no more energy can be extracted from a substance and no further lowering of its temperature is…

Wolfgang Mozart mixed with Ne-Yo. Bach blended with the soulful sounds of Adele and soothing cords and progressions of a violin. These are only a few of the characterizations I would use to describe violinist and performer Josh Vietti. Josh brings a distinctive approach to music combining tones of classical with a wide variety of styles from pop to gospel, hip hop jazz and country. He is a musician typically defined as a hip-hop violinist, but Josh Vietti is enormously more than that. He is an…

“Football,” Americas favorite sport and past time has for many years captured the attention of millions in the United States. Although teams compete in the most inclement frigid weather, it is a sport that has played an intricate role in uniting families as well as communities in friendly banter, while taking one’s mind off the pressures that may engulf them on a daily basis. And even though this holds true, occasionally, during the season one will experience an upset or a scandal that will…
