To find out the spiciness of a pepper the Scoville scale is the most commonly used system for measuring pungency. The original Scoville scale was invented by Wilbur Scoville. During his experiment, five people ate a spicy pepper. Afterwards, they each drank water with dissolved sugar. When enough sugar was added so that the spiciness could not be tasted, that amount of sugar was recorded and the system was converted into a scale. There are more efficient ways to determine the amount…

In Beethoven’s string quartet Op. 18 No. 4, there is the implication that the first movement sonata form has indeed been emancipated from the looming tyranny of the minor key and that the movement will, in fact, end in C major as opposed to C minor. In measure 194, the ESC is presented as a strong C major chord which should indicate the emancipation of the movement; however, this is not the case. As the closing material quickly continues, E-flats are reintroduced signaling that the outcome of…

Thunderstorms come in all varieties, shapes, sizes, and destruction. There isn't just one type of thunderstorm. I can't cover all the different types, but the 3 main types of thunderstorms are multi cell, single cell, and supercell. I will cover these 3 main cells of a thunderstorm and how they work, and how they're different from each other. The first and smaller version of a thunderstorm would be considered a single celled storm. What is a single celled storm?, You may ask. Well a single…

Tornadoes vs. Hurricanes Wow! That’s a big storm. Hurricanes and tornadoes have a lot of similarities and differences. They can also vary in size and cause a lot of damage. The damages, wind speed, similarities, causes, and also watches. These are all sorts of facts about tornadoes and hurricanes. To begin with, there are all sorts of watches for a tornado and a hurricane. The watches for a tornado are 1 or 2 hours ahead of time before it is about to hit. If there’s a tornado there would be a…

to protect people from these powerful forces of nature. Understanding how they form and what to look for before one touches down can save the lives of many people. Looking into history, past tragic events can help future ones to be less tragic. The scale rating these tornadoes can show just how powerful nature can be. Explanation Tornadoes are deadly winds, rotating at up to two hundred and fifty plus miles per hour (Tornado Facts and History). These transparent clouds can be deadly in a matter…

amount of destruction as the wedge. The wedge tornado is the most damaging and dangerous tornadoes of them all. Always be careful when there is a wedge tornado they are very dangerous. Wedge tornadoes would be in the EF5 and up category for the EF scale, "Much like their conic counterparts, they have a wide range of intensities, and the base can look…

explanation of both this terms, is one of the most radically different to the rest of composers and scholars. For him, the difference relies in the amount of tonal centers. While polytonality must have two or more tonal centers with identical or different scales, polymodality needs only one tonic and different modes, as he observes To point out the essential difference between atonality, polytonality, and polymodality in a final word on this subject, we may say that atonal music offers no…

1.0 Introduction Data collection on Bruny Island yielded several readings associated with climate, topography, and GPS. These readings have been analysed using visual techniques before refining to report on the reasoning behind the different trends in the datasets. As Bruny Island experiences (a general) North-Westerly wind direction, it became evident that vegetation and the topography of one sand dune transect would impose an effect on the recorded wind speed (or velocity) readings. The…

Personal Philosophy After completing the leadership inventory, I came to find that I had equal amounts of each of the four leadership styles. Personally, I thought my primary leadership style was analytical and my secondary leadership style was supportive. I did not see myself as being directive or adaptive, so I was surprised at the results. By having equal amounts of all four leadership styles, I will be able to use all the different characteristics of these leadership styles to aid in my…

uniform—rather, each hurricane is a collection of individual storms. Hurricane season runs from June to November, but most occur between August and October (“Hurricanes,” 2013). Each hurricane is ranked on the Saffir-Simpson Hurricane damage Potential scale, from a Category 1 to a Category 5; those Category 3 and larger are called major hurricanes (Abbott,…
