These developments take place in politics, economic, culture and arts. Different societies or regions get civilized in different ways. Civilization in most cases depends on the influence of others in terms of culture and economics leading to a shift of mode of operation of the societies. Civilization can be viewed to be a way of changing peoples…

Why was the industrial revolution British, and what was it about Britain that allowed for the expansive economic growth to occur while the rest of Europe was comparably suffering? This question has been posed throughout history because of its significance and R.C. Allen provides a detailed analysis of what exactly occurred in Britain in the 18th and 19th centuries to prompt the growth that produced the industrial revolution, as well as all the benefits that came along with it. It can be argued…

What is acid rain? Acid rain is a form of deposition in which chemicals with an acidic pH level are taken out of the atmosphere through precipitation. When we pollute the air by burning fossil fuels, we create different chemicals that end up in our atmosphere. A few of these have chemical reactions with the water in clouds, and form (depending on the chemical) sulfurous and nitrous acids. When it rains, this acid is taken back to the ground. While pure water has a neutral pH level of 7,…

Discussion Board 2: Goal of planning Definition: “Planning, a crucial function of management, is setting goals for specific results and determining how to achieve those results. The goal of planning is to anticipate as many future events as possible in order to successfully formulate a course of action, increase revenues, and satisfy owner requirements.” (Satterlee, 2013, p. 64) Summary: Vedpuriswar, director at Cognizant Technology Solutions and author of a great number of articles about global…

Steel is also called as an alloy of iron, with the content of carbon controlled. 4% of carbon in Iron makes it Cast Iron and when the carbon content is less than 2%, the product is steel. Cast Iron is made from pig iron, which is the by-product of smelting of iron from an iron-foundry. Mild steel, which is also known as plain carbon steel, approximately contains 0.05-0.15% of carbon. This makes it malleable and ductile. Mild steel has a relatively low tensile strength, it is cheap and the…

established with ancient Rome, India and many other countries. In the Chinese industry, productivity was improved substantially in both metallurgy and the textile industry. Looms were incorporated, taking the place of manual labor in weaving. Iron-smelting was definitely implemented on a large parameter and steel was made using coal as fuel. Hydraulics were implemented using water power to drive a celestial…

Commercial Revolution originated in the late seventeen century and moving onto the eighteenth century, where it shaped the foundation for the industrialization of Britain through the establishment of trades, financial, commercial as well as legal industries (Harley, 2004). An industrial development of an economy can be advantageous as it increases the industrial opportunities such as enhancing living standards, domestic value of products, and provide a large goods and service market (Deane,…

China and Rome both structure their societies very similarly through their military, social structure, and religions. And while these civilizations were great, when their empires fell, their falls were from the same source of problems. These civilizations also had differences through how they first started expanding, how the people they conquered assimilated, what their empire were influenced by, and what happened to China and Rome after their falls. A major similarity between China and Rome…

door before us while strengthening us both physically and emotionally. Let me ask you a question, does life end with adversity? Or do these adversities bring out the Gold in us through heat moments? Just like we expose gold to excess heat through smelting to get rid of impurities so do humans require challenges to awaken their hidden potential. The point we realize that we require struggle, hardship and pressure to discard the impurities in our life, will be the hour we begin to comprehend…

As an essential factor to sustain life and the ultimate protector within numerous industries, the element zinc exists as a crucial factor within the world’s scientific realm. This bluish-white, lustrous metal was previously used in various industrial alloys and for medicinal purposes as early as 2,500 years ago by the Romans and Palestinians (“Zinc,” 2016). Greater rates of zinc production then began in India during the 13th century by heating mineral calamine with wool, yet no reference to it…
