Terrorism, bloodshed and power status sums up the focal points embedded within the movie, City of God, directed by Fernando Meirelles, and Kátia Lund. These themes create definitions for several theories. The first theory in comparison to the movie is Strain Theory. Because of the economic strain of the people within the film, most turn to criminal activity. “Many families were homeless due to the flooding and acts of arson in the slums” (Meirelles, 2002). The government shipped their homeless…

Multiple Regression Analysis Question 1 The overarching objective is to assess the demographic variables that influence the perceptions of faculty members toward the organizational justice. In particular, the demographic variables include the occupation of the faculty members, rank, experience, and size. Various analyses are performed on the data, including descriptive and inferential analysis. Notably, the measures for occupation, rank, and the perceptions of faculty members are categorical…

Crystal Methodology Critique, Benefits and limitations Crystal methodology was first bound by Cockburn in 1998. In crystal, the projects are divided according to their size and the criticality of the system being produced (Ramsin & Paige, 2008). Member of the crystal family is marked with a color to show the weight of the methodology, that means the darker the color the heavier the methodology. Crystal recommends choosing the appropriate color of methodology for a project based on its size and…

Problem: Apparatus 1: what is the relationship between height of release and the initial velocity? Apparatus 2: What is the relationship between length of the ball catcher and the final velocity of the system? Additional question: What is the percentage error of the initial velocity calculated using momentum and kinematics? Percentage error between theoretical initial velocity and experimental initial velocity? How much energy is lost? note: the initial velocity calculated using kinematics…

Weight Estimation using AHP In this section weight estimation using AHP is provided, where first dependency matrix is created based on saaty’s scale. Referring to matrix A1, every attribute is compared with others, ex. DT (Distance) first compared with itself so value is 1, then DT is compared with TT (Travel Time) as in this case TT is moderately important than DT is value will be 1/3, when DT is compared with PCU (Traffic Volume), in this case DT is moderately important than…

The general model introduced in Fig.4.10 is commonly used to design stable high-order modulators. If a chain of integrators is used to form the loop filter, two main modulators typologies exist [1, 5, 8]: a cascade of M delaying integrators is used to form the filter, where the feedback and the input signals are being fed to each integrator input with different weight factors a_i and b_i (Fig.4.11). The transfer function of the signal filter, L_0, is: while the feedback filter L_1 can be…

Genealogists photograph tombstones to document the birth, death and burial information of their ancestors. This post will give you some tips on how to get the best possible results when taking those important pictures. Locating Cemeteries Your first challenge might well be just getting to the cemetery. Hopefully you have an obituary or burial record for your ancestor that gives the name of the cemetery. Depending on how old the record is, finding the cemetery can be very easy or impossible.…

Related rates are used in a wide variety of different scenarios from finding how large a spill is increasing, to how fast it may take to empty something. Related rates deal with time, usually have two different variables like height, length, radius, or width; and have something that is changing like area, distance, or volume. In order to solve related rates problems you need to be able to recall or have access to basic geometry formulas like circle, cone, cylinder, rectangle, triangle and…

The immense history of Greece could not be possible for the impressive and influential city-states located throughout the regions. Mycenae, Knossos, and Troy are three revered and questioned palatial sites that operated in similar and opposing ways. In the late 1800s, three archaeologists excavated their ways into the history books. Sir Arthur Evans became recognized as the British archaeologist who uncovered the palace at Knossos, on the island of Crete in the Aegean Sea. Heinrich Schliemann…

The Minoan Palace and the Micenaean Citadel both have walls that protect them. However, they are both very distinct. Minoan Chronology has two main periods. The “old palace” period lasted from about 1900 to 1700 BCE while the “New Palace” period started around 1700 and it lasted until 1450 BCE. Sir Arthur Evans excavated the complex at Knossos in 1900 CE. The walls of the palace are practically earthquake-proof while the lower walls have dressed stone. Minoans created all kinds of extravagant…
