At first glance, the yo-yo – is a simple toy that looks like a spool tied to the end of the rope. However in skillful hands it becomes something extraordinary! Let me try to explore the principles of acting of the yo-yo and find what makes it “behave” in such an unexpected way.

The simplest yo-yo resembles a flattened spool of thread – two disks (yo-yo halves) connected at the center with an axis of a sufficiently large diameter. To an axis there is a rope attached, which wounds around an axis. In the initial position, the rope is wound on the axle ...

Introduction

Cylindrical pressure vessels have varied functions in our society today. When you drive into a filling station for gasoline, you encounter cylindrical pressure vessels as storage containments for the gasoline in underground burrows. Many of the people living in the countryside do not have cooking gas piped into their houses. They use cylindrical pressure vessels that contain liquefied petroleum gas. Containers of smaller sizes that serve different sizes in our households are cylindrical pressure services.

The fact is that cylindrical pressure vessels are very important, because of their varied functions. In underscoring the importance of cylindrical pressure vessels, the engineering ...

Visualizing Data

The visualization and presentation of data using illustrations such as tables, charts, and graphs makes research work easy to present and comprehend, as is the case in Dr. Hans Rosling’s presentation that shows the relationship between population and health in various countries as well as the changes in population and health as time in year’s changes. The initial presentation is a bubble chart that displays life expectancy at birth against fertility rate. Each bubble represents a particular country, and the size of the bubble is the population (Rosling, 2006). Next, he uses an area chart to show the distribution ...

QUESTION 1

A dependent variable can be defined as the factor that changes resulting from changes in the independent variable (Geweke, 2010, p. 310). For example, in a controlled experiment, this can be described as what tends to be tested for result (Hendry, 2009, p. 60). In this assignment, I decided to analyze the number of mergers and acquisitions (M&A) in Britain, among companies in the United Kingdom between 1969 and 2011. I find the variable of interest since it exhibits considerable variability and would, therefore, be challenging to model. The variable (Mergers & Acquisitions) exhibits high year to year variability, ...

- Why does the tilt of the Earth’s axis relative to its orbit cause the seasons as the Earth revolves around the Sun? Draw a diagram to illustrate your answer.

Earth's seasons are the result of the tilt of the Earth's axis. Since the axis is tilted, different parts of the globe are oriented towards the Sun at different times of the year. Summer in the Northern Hemisphere is warmer than winter as the Sun's rays hit the Earth at a comparatively more direct angle for larger portions of the day, producing more heat and vice versa. Due to this very same tilt, when the Sun crosses the Equator it causes the equinoxes.

- Where do you have to be on the Earth to see the Sun at your zenith? If you stay at one such location for a full year, on how many days will the Sun pass through the zenith?

To see the Sun at its Zenith a person can be at a place between 23.5o ...

Question 1: Medieval art

Medieval art is a combination of both the classical and new classical traditions due to the various aspects of the art especially the elements of both Romanesque and gothic art and architecture in relation to the medieval church. Each of the architectural designs has its own outstanding and unique features that make them stand as original. In this history, we can take note of the Romanesque architecture of the Medieval Europe between sixth and 10th century. Two centuries later, it evolved into Gothic architecture that lasted for four centuries to 16th century (Bony 13). The term Romanesque architecture is used ...

Design for manufacturing a concept that seeks to minimize the cost involved in manufacturing an item. As a concept in engineering, design for manufacturing also seeks to reduce the difficulty when manufacturing a product. The design for manufacturing concept is concerned with the reduction of the overall cost of production that results from parts that are used in the manufacturing process. In order to achieve this, the design for manufacturing concept seeks to minimize the complexities in the processes that might impede manufacturing operations by using common primary axes and datum features (Porter 2).

On the other hand, the design for assembly ...

Management of both employees and production has been an epochal subject in a global world. The fact is the managers of various organizations need the performance of workers to boost the organizational production. The perturbing questions to most of the managers are the effective management styles that endeavor to embrace both the employees and the production. In early 1960s, Robert Blake and Jane Mouton developed a Managerial Grid Model. Blake and Mouton realized the imperativeness of the employees and production in the organization. In view of the aforementioned, the two innovators included the two factors, the concern for people and the ...

In order to review and assess the data of child mortality against the Gross Domestic Product (GDP), the x-axis of the ‘Gapminder’ application is set to the variable named “Income per Person (GDP/Capita) and the y-axis is set to the variable named “Child Mortality”. The child mortality is considered the death of a child in between newborn till five (5) years of age. Moreover, the paper is limited to data of a few countries; therefore, ...

Control charts are statistical tools that plot quality characteristics in order to measure whether a process is under statistical control. Their basic purpose of such charts is to control process variation. The characteristic measured by control charts is usually plotted on the vertical axis, while the sample is displayed on the horizontal axis. Control charts also illustrate the process mean as well as upper and lower control limits, which are drawn 3 standard deviations above and below the central line respectively.

These limits are used to make conclusions about the statistical stability of the process.
In case control charts ...

In many capitalist economies, the production of goods and services is controlled by the few who are able to produce the goods with minimal of without any competition. Such an economy is controlled by a few individuals who are able to produce or have been protected by the legistation. Such people who are able to produce goods for production are referred to as the monopolists. Monopoly in the marketplace indicates the existence of a sole seller. This may take the form of a unified business, organization, or it may be an association of separately controlled firms, which combine, or act together, for ...

1) Explain how the outward flow of energy from the Earth’s interior drives the process of plate tectonics?

The outermost layer of earth, or lithosphere, is broken up into tectonic plates. The boundaries of the plates and their movement leads to the formation of earthquakes, volcanic activity, creation of mountains, and the formation of oceanic trenches. Tectonic plates are formed from either oceanic crust or continental crust, with many containing both. The movement of the plates varies from 0-100mm in a given year. The movement of these plates comes from the outward energy of flow that comes from earth’s central core. Radioactivity produced from elements within earth’s core, such as uranium, decay and release energy. The ...

1) Explain how the outward flow of energy from the Earth’s interior drives the process of plate tectonics?

The earth’s composition consists of a crust, mantle and core. The earth’s core consists of elements like uranium which are radioactive. Due to the phenomenon of radioactivity, these elements decay and trigger a reaction. Because of this a large amount of energy is produced in the core and inner core of the earth. Because of this energy, the core of the earth is very hot and in a molten state. This heat is transferred from the core to the crust by the process convection currents formed in the molten core, creating a cycle of rising and falling of the molten material. This ...

Findings

Based on the 2010 HSE data, we have done statistical analysis of all the variables as potential attributing factor to asthma. Variables such as salary, Smoking habits, Ethnicity, Drinking habits and Sex were analyzed. It was found that salary is negatively correlated with asthma or in simple words as the income of a household increases, chances of asthma reduce. Drinking was also found as a contributing factor to asthma. Heavy drinkers are less prone to asthma than non-drinkers. Also, it was established that there is not enough evidence that smoking causes asthma. It was also found that asthma is not biased ...

A pipette is one of the laboratory instruments utilized in the transportation of a measured volume of fluids. Therefore, the general use of a pipette is to transfer a specific volume of a fluid from one container (measuring cylinder) to another. There are several types of pipettes. They include; Volumetric, graduated, automated pipettes, micropipettes and disposable pipettes. But for the sake of the video, we will concentrate of two: Volumetric and graduated pipettes.

These pipettes are used to transport a single specific volume of a fluid, typically between 1 and 100 ml. They are shaped like rolling pins with a huge belly, one blunted end (the ...

The differences undermines economists way of pricing. Another aspect apart from cost per product-that the social class of the consumers is incorporated in pricing.

The fixed costs are constant for a production period, say annually. The variable cost, which varies with number of units produced are distorted to reflect high amounts, which are intended to be high mark-ups for the vendor.

Cost of selling is very high, taking the case of perfume. This means that the perfume passes through very many stages, which will prompt each person to add some mark-up in order to get profit, hence raising the amount ...
