Surfactant Agents I. Definitions a. Surfactant: A surface-active agent that lowers surface tension i. Examples 1. soap 2. detergent b. Surface Tension: Force caused by attraction between like molecules that occurs at liquid-gas interfaces and that holds the liquid surface intact i. Units of Measure: dynes/centimeter (dyn/cm) 1. the force required to cause a 1 cm rupture in the surface film ii. a droplet forms because a liquid’s molecules are more attracted to each other than the surrounding…

This essay examines the implications of waste in design and manufacturing with regard to the nature and future sustainability of practices considered modern by contemporary standards. Practices, such as CNC (computer numerically controlled) machining and additive manufacturing such as 3D printing, are the benchmark for modern manufacturing; 'In the domain of manufacturing, computer numerically controlled (CNC) technology is a major contributor to the production capacity of the…
b) (15 points). Which of these nine boundaries have already been crossed? What are the potential impacts of crossing those boundaries? 1. Climate Change. We are putting too much greenhouse gases into the atmosphere, and on the verge of massive climate change. Some potential changes are it is three times more likely nitrogen will get into the atmosphere than the earth can sustain. Increase in the loss of major ice sheets, accelerated sea level rise and abrupt shifts in forest and agricultural…
