There are many elements that humans come in contact with every day. One of these elements is ruthenium, and you see it almost every day if you use pens, electronics, or jewelry. There are many sources, uses, and health hazards for the element of ruthenium. Here are the locations where you can find ruthenium. There are two places in the world where you can find the element ruthenium. You can find it on the continent of North America in Canada and on the continent of Europe in Russia. In…
b. When measuring the resistance value with the Avo 8, possible reasons for varience include a parallax error (not looking at the reading from directly above the meter), a reading error due to less divisions when measuring resistance, or the device not being properly zeroed. When measuring current, there are also fewer division, parallax is still a potential issue, and finally, incorrect zeroing of the meter. Voltage has an additional error, the loading of the meter itself. Alongside this issue,…
The Jews tried to see each other after curfew to discuss their plans for resisting. Stated by Vladka Meed, an active resistor that lived in the Warsaw Ghetto, “(...) I recall being in a house after the curfew (...) two small children to be outside in case German are coming” (“Vladka Meed Discusses”). They people look out for each other so their plans and discussions wouldn’t…
The history of piezoelectricity evolution is over 120 years which was discovered by brothers Curie in 1880. They were Pierre Curie (1859-1906) and Jacques Curie (1855-1941). During the study of the generation surface electrical charge by applying pressure on some material, they found out an unusual phenomenon which was a voltage of opposite polarity was generated by pressure was applied on the crystalline minerals such as quartz. The amplitude of the generated voltage was proportional to the…
Fighting For Lives Freedom fighter: A person who takes part in a violent struggle to achieve a political goal, in order to overthrow their government (“Merriam Webster”). The Holocaust took place during World War II. While the Holocaust occurred six million people were treated inhumanely and killed no matter their age, by the Nazis following orders from Adolf Hitler. During the Holocaust, not only freedom fighters were resisting, people fought back in violent and nonviolent ways to keep their…
The Holocaust was a tragic event that sparked the humanitarian aura in many people across the globe. Ironic, isn’t it? A terrible event bringing out the good in others? It began in Poland where Adolf Hitler, leader of Germany, had invaded the country with his armed force named the “Nazi party”. Adolf Hitler had an evil idea in mind, and invading Poland was just the beginning of it all. Jews were scapegoats to Adolf and the Nazis, meaning they were blamed for many of the problems Germany faced…
at a 30° angle and the water pump was moved next to the block, which shortened the assembly. The slant six gained electronic ignition in 1973, a strong, reliable system over the long haul - though the ballast resistor tends to fail, making starting impossible. Replacing the ballast resistor costs about $3 and two minutes of somebody’s time. Many mechanics then and now replaced the entire ignition system when it…
SECTION A: ARDUINO BOARD Fig 1. Arduino Uno board 1. ATMEGA328P MICROCONTROLLER FUNCTION: ATMEGA328P is a microcontroller from the AVR family; it is an 8-bit device, which means that its data-bus architecture and internal registers are designed to handle 8 parallel data signals. It has 3 types of memory: • FLASH MEMORY: It is used for storing application, which explains why you don’t need to upload your application every time you unplug Arduino from its power source. • SRAM MEMORY: Storing…
In her essay “partisanes and gender politics in Vichy France,” Paula Schwartz contends that while the number of women who saw combat as French resistors were rather limited, those who did “pushed gender barriers to their limits (151).” We see that the unique nature of the resistance as an unconventional force, meant that not women were able to participate extensively in the urban resistance and were in a lot cases given responsibility unheard of in a conventional fighting force. Most…
The Sarayaku people, faced several months of struggle, torture, rape and suffering from the state for protesting to quell the resistance (Goodman). The Ecuadorian government cracked down on the resistors, ordering closure of CONAIE to prevent activists from attending an UN climate summit, in which the people could bring to light certain abuses, and cut off their outreach severely limiting access to outside help (Goodman). In regards to the Pipeline…
