Wire

Kanye West’s single “Through the Wire” from “The College Dropout” album, was released in 2003. The importance of the single being released during that specific year was that Kanye was trying to be recognized as a rapper. Many people wouldn 't recognize him as a rapper mainly because he did not have as much credibility as other rappers, such as Jay-Z and Tupac did. In fact, people wanted him to give up on rapping and focus on beating, which was what he was good at. Kanye didn 't give up in what he believed in. Instead he got his credibility by making a music video that included his nearly fatal car accident, his acceptance into the Roc-A-Fella Records, and his tribute to Chaka Khan. During the early 2000’s, Kanye gained most of his credibility by recording “Through the Wire”, while literally having his mouth shut with a wire. “I spit it through the wire man” said Kanye in his single. Kanye had recorded “Through the Wire” with his mouth still being wired shut and while still experiencing pain; this was due to his broken jaw. He had fractured his jaw in three different places because he had been in an almost fatal car accident in Los Angeles, after having a long day at the studio. With Kanye including a…

Nicknamed the father of wire, Alexander Calder, was a modernists, a realists, but overall, an artist. During the time, many artists made silhouette line drawings on paper, but Calder was the original artist to use wire to fashion three-D line "sketches" of people, animals, and objects. He then moved from metaphorical linear sculptures in wire to random forms in motion by creating the first mobiles. Composed of whirling sizes of wire offset with thin metallic plates, the presence of the whole…

causing a short. This can cause a fire and can be very dangerous. Be aware if there is a burning smell. If you smell burning, and you don't know what the source is, it might be best to step out of your home and call a professional right away. This is always caused by some kind of short, but you won't know where it's located unless you call in a professional. In some cases, the short might be in one of your outlets, but that's not something that you should investigate on your own. You should…

Sarah Koenig in Serial, and Rabia Chaudry in Undisclosed begins their investigations with preconceived reasons for Adnan Syed’s innocence. Chaudry is personally connected with Syed through her brother Saad Chaudry, Syed’s best friend, so Rabia Chaudry believes Syed’s awesome and cannot commit murder. Thus, as a lawyer, Chaudry has previously reviewed the state’s case thoroughly. On the other hand, Koenig begins her investigation with a different reason for doubting the state’s case against Syed.…

Scosche. This has not gone unnoticed as Scosche was won countless awards from consumer organizations such as CES, CTIA, iLounge, Popular Mechanics, and more. To separate themselves from the competition, Scosche builds thier product with the highest quality ingredients in mind. Most other brands for example, use recycled ABS plastic to construct their dash kit. Scosche uses Polypropylene and non-recycled ABS plastic mix. They also powder coat and texturize their kits to match the same…

McCauley explains how Gary Vikan, the director of Walters Art Museum, and Charles Conner, the director of the university's Mind/Brain Institute, gather round people and let them settle on what inkblot they like better. Her purpose is to write about how the concept of beauty can be traced to science, and how one may find a particular inkblot more pleasant. In one of the studies, it is found that people prefer a smoother and rounder image, rather than a sharp and spiky image that is not evenly…

The problem with using resistance as a measurement is that it depends not only on the material out of which the wire is made, but also the geometry of the wire. If we were to increase the length of wire, for example, the measured resistance would increase. Also, if we were to decrease the diameter of the wire, the measured resistance would increase. We want to define a property that describes a material's ability to transmit electrical current that is independent of the geometrical factors.…

Discussion From this experiment, it can be determined that the value of the coefficient of friction between the wire and the belt is 0.2782 (which is dimensionless). In addition, T1 becomes smaller (so the belt tension ratio becomes greater) when the angle of contact is increased, which can be explained by considering equation 2, as T2 cannot change for a given stationary mass. Comparing the experimental results to the theoretical predictions (made from the calculated value of μ, there is a…

Problem: At live events, such as concerts, noise levels are extremely high- over 100 decibels. The issue here is that regular, daily conversations are done at about 65 decibels. According to graphs shown in “Classification of Hearing Loss”, this can potentially damage people’s ears severely in the long run and result in hearing loss. It is almost impossible to sue due to the fact that people are endangering their own safety, and even if it were that easy to sue, major companies that host…
