Orders of magnitude

dedicated to each symbol. Multiply this value by the symbol rate to determine the sample rate. The default value is 16. symbol values specifies an array of symbol values with an order that corresponds to the symbol map. The number of QAM states in the array must be 2N, where N is the number of bits per symbol. The length, or magnitude, of the vector for the symbols farthest from the origin must be 1. This VI expects a two-dimensional, square array of integers for the symbol values parameter.…

Pain and discomfort should not be a part of the job description for dental hygienists. However, according to Sanders and Turcotte (1997), there is a “high incidence of cumulative trauma disorders (CTD) among dental hygienists and an alarming number of dental professionals who report work with pain every day” (p.55). Practicing dental hygiene entails spending most of our day viewing small, narrow spaces inside the oral cavity. Long-term strain to our eyes, muscles, joints, nerves and tendons…

attack on Afghanistan that followed the 9/11 attacks was understandable, but the subsequent invasion of Iraq was entirely unconnected to al-Qaeda - as much as Bush tried to establish a link. That war of choice quickly became very expensive - orders of magnitude beyond the $60bn claimed at the beginning - as colossal incompetence met dishonest misrepresentation. The first thing required was a change in the mental model that our top officials in the White House were using to address threats to…

Conventionally, Vietnam is a nation-state, and country with a rather long and complicated history, filled with varying cultural traditions and a great deal of differences between regions, and smaller states. Culturally, in a magnitude of manners, the Vietnamese people have more in common with Confucian China than Buddhist Southeast Asia. Most cultures throughout the Southeast Asian regions, appear to regard the Vietnamese people as fighters, and are not particularly fond of them despite their…

to 2013 (Shultz 2014). Near the town of Prague, Oklahoma, the biggest earthquake ever recorded in Oklahoma occurred having a magnitude of 5.6 and many seismologists believe that it was caused by fracking through disposal wells. The theory behind the earthquakes propose that the sheer volume of fluid that is injected into the ground is directly proportional to the magnitude of the quake. Figure 2…

Bismuth is the 83rd chemical in the periodic table. It is found as a natural metal on the surface of the earth. Bi has a ground state electronic configuration of [Xe]4f145d106s26p3 and trivalent and pentavalent Bi, Bi(III) and Bi(V), respectively, are the two predominant oxidation states. [27] It was discovered over a thousand years ago but was often confused with tin and lead. It is a prevalent post transition metal, which chemically resembles arsenic or antimony. Bismuth is the most naturally…

When confronted with an obstacle, the easiest and the most efficient way to achieve a resolution is always the most desired; however, when assessing the act of fracking, it may be one hole that should not be drilled. Fracking is the process of using hydraulic machinery to access oil and gas in areas of the Earth’s crust that are otherwise hard to retrieve. Where there are some benefits to using this system, the consequences of fracking are far more catastrophic to our environment. Ethically,…

Patriots VS Loyalists in New America It is the 1700s, and the Revolution against Britain is only beginning. The great debate in the new nation is picking a side: Patriots or Loyalists and why. There were many people and groups trying to convince others to sway one way or the other, but no one compared to Patrick Henry. Henry was a Patriot. A great one at that. Having the gift of orating only helped him in convincing the Virginia Convention (the decision makers of the time) to stop sitting…

words seem as though it had a life of its own. The images and Simon’s way of explaining the magnitude of the work involved in the Oxford dictionary and the acts committed by Dr.minor can be visualized as though you was at the scene yourself. The graphic…

endothermic behavior of the overall adsorption with the increment of temperature. The magnitude of ∆H gives an insight view of adsorption thermos-mechanisms, as ∆H for chemical adsorption is typically in the range of 40-800 (kJ/mol) and the corresponding ∆H specified for physical adsorption process, though may have other effect that affect the value, is usually within 5-40 (kJ/mol)[29]. Researches showed that the ∆H magnitude order of metallic ions could be explained that ions with larger charge…
