number "3" would be recorded in the data table. Take photographs for your display board, if desired. Remove the prepared tray and the broken test house. Repeat steps a-e for the three remaining soil types: gravel, alluvium, and sand. Be sure to record your results in your data table after each shaking test. Repeat "Testing Your Shake Houses" steps 1-4 for two additional trials per soil type so that all 12 houses are tested. V. Results First was the bedrock, when I shook it, it stayed completely intact because it is an underground soil that has been constructing itself for millions of years that is made of rock. Next when I shook the gravel it shook a lot until it fell because gravel is little fragments of rocks and when it is in the ground usually it is pretty loose. Then I shook the alluvium which rocked from side to side and toppled over because it is loose and crumbly and contains some water but liquefaction then takes place. Liquefaction is when a solid or a gas becomes a liquid in an earthquake. Lastly when I shook the sand it moved from side to side and fell over due to liquefaction. Number of fallen walls Bedrock Gravel Alluvium Sand Trial 1 0 2 3 4 Trial 2 0 1 1 0 Sum of trials 0 3 4 4 Average of trials 0 1.5 2 1 VI. Conclusion My hypothesis was proven because the sand made more walls fall than the others because of liquefaction. What I learned from this experiment was how different types of soil react to earthquakes and add to my knowledge about…
came to a baker's house where the oven was full of bread which cried out, "Drawme, draw me or I shall be burnt. I have been baked long enough." So she went up andtaking the bread-pan, drew out one loaf after the other. Then she walked on further andcame to an apple tree whose fruit hung very thick and which exclaimed, "Shake me, shakeme. The apples are all ripe!" So she shook the tree till the apples fell down like rain andwhen none were left on, she gathered them all together in a heap and went…
There are many important issues that are relevant in recent news, like sexism, or the controversy over the confederate flag. One thing that has caught many people’s attention in the sports world and all over is the Redskins name and logo. The issue is that their name and logo(an Indian head) is considered to be racist towards Native Americans. This has been seen as degrading and stereotyping Native Americans. The Redskins name may seem like a small issue just important to football fans but this…
Wilson was induced by Shook to coguarantee a $200,000 loan, and in return becoming an equal shareholder with Shook. Therefore, on May 28, 1964, Shook, Wilson and two other individuals created S & W all as incorporators. Then Shook was to sell 182 shares of stock in S & W to Wilson for $500 per share while Wilson was to pay interests to Shook until 1969. In 1967, the petitioner, Intermountain Lumber Co, purchased all outstanding S & W stock. Later, Shook and Wilson signed an agreement that Wilson…
In his book, All Shook Up, Altschuler traces the development of rock ‘n’ roll between 1945 and 1955 carefully noting that it is a “social construction not a musical conception” (23). This definition of rock ‘n’ roll frees him to focus on a time of differing styles, cultures, and social values. The book does this by focusing on these areas by looking at race, sexuality, and generational differences. In Altschuler argument about race, he complicates the traditional view that white artist’s covers…
“All Shook Up” by Glenn Altschuler exhibits how Rock ‘n Roll irritated, inspired, and sparked change in American culture. Music has played a critical role in civilization since its creation. As humans have progressed and evolved so has music. There has been a constant transformation in melodic styles, sounds, and the ways people perform. Rock ‘n Roll gets its origins from the early days of jazz, rhythm and blues, folk, country, and pop. It is a blend of all previous forms of music with its own…
In this essay, I argue why Beauvoir’s introduction to the novel The Second Sex and Baldwin’s letter, “My Dungeon Shook,” start in a similar vein. Beauvoir and Baldwin both experience antagonism within themselves, in dealing with the study of women (Beauvoir) and the study of black men (Baldwin) because ‘woman’ and ‘black man’ are conceptualisms that have been authored by white men, in relation to white men, interpellated upon women and black men by white men for ages. These similar introductions…
of the inherent human downfalls that lead to these instances of racial oppression. One shining example of said group, author James Baldwin, utilizes his own experiences growing up as a young African American in Harlem to create masterful works of literature that not only examine American society 's racial, social, and religious mistakes of the past, but also serve to provide insight into how they may be avoided in the future. Particularly, in the first section of his thought provoking book, A…
All Shook Up opens the performance with a rousing rendition of Elvis Presley’s Jail House Rock, one might be confused with the 1950’s style jukebox musical being introduced with a song and dance that has absolutely no context to the actual musical. With intense pelvic thrusting throughout the various musical to emphasize the “roustaboutness” of certain characters and some of the various sexual topics, this show is meant for adult eyes only. With the mimicking of Shakespeare’s Twelfth Night and…
In the book All Shook Up: How Rock ‘n’ Roll Changed America, by Glenn Altschuler, touches on the development of rock ‘n’ roll between 1945 and 1955 cautiously observing that it is a “social construction not a musical conception (Page 27).” This definition of rock ‘n’ roll gives him space to focus on arguable topics much as exploration, and, in some cases, combining of differing styles, cultures, and social values. In the book the first three chapters focus on those argued areas by looking at…
