Teenagers Reports Samples For Students

In recent years, there has been concern over the rising numbers of violent crimes in the United States. Crime statistics from the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI 2011) indicate that 58% of murder victims are youthful African Americans. The trend is estimated to rise since in 2011, the prevalence was 58% which was 8% more than it was in 2007. Young men and boys of color are therefore the most vulnerable populations when it comes to violence. The photo chosen was appropriate to this issue because it addresses the concern that the African American community has over the rampant ...

Abstract
Material selection is an important stage in engineering design. Engineers use various materials with different mechanical properties in building of structures. These mechanical properties include; tensile strength, yield strength, proof stress, Young's modulus, shears modulus of rigidity and ductility amongst others. Material selection increases the performance as well as durability of the engineering component. The expected life, cost, nature of loading and working environment are some of the factors that assist engineers to select materials for particular application. Therefore, engineers and designers must be able to determine the properties of these materials before they use them. Engineers ...

1. When the load on the specimen increases, the compression on the specimen increases. The longitudinal strain increases by increasing of the load value. The young’s modulus gets increases with the longitudinal strain. The load compresses because of the load.
2. When a compressive force acts on the specimen, two types of stain occur one is lateral strain and another strain is the axial strain. The specimen undergoes lateral strain to some extent. The lateral strain occurs due to the overload applied on the specimen, but the specimen undergoes more longitudinal strain than the lateral strain. The specimen ...

Introduction

Obesity is a societal problem, not just in America but all over the world. There are drastic measures that the American society mandates to prevent obesity especially in young children. One of these programs is America’s First Lady Michelle Obama’s “Let’s Move” campaign, which, according to Healy (2014) of the Los Angeles Times restricts unhealthy foods being promoted and sold at schools. Preventive measures for children in young ages are appropriate as this will help them maintain a healthy weight as they grow old.
On the other hand, Daniels, et al. (2005) assert that obesity in children ...

The problem of adolescent depression is concerning as depression and suicide in adolescence is increasing rapidly even as better treatment and awareness has resulted in decreasing rates in adults (Gray, 2010). There are a number of reasons for this increase in youth. One reason for concern is that it can be difficult to determine when an adolescent is acting developmentally appropriately and when they are depressed. Adolescents are often moody, irritable, histrionic, reactionary and oppositional. These are also signs of depression so figuring out where the line between normal adolescent behavior and behavior that might indicate a problem is not easy ( ...

Article Review

In this paper, I review the article Fundamentals of Beer and Hop Chemistry, authored by Keukeliere, D. (2010).
In his article, Keukeliere (2010) begins by indicating that beer, an aqueous fermented drink, is based on starch, but flavored by hops. Keukelier (2010) notes that, barley, and most specifically barley malt, is the main body of beer. In order to produce one liter of beer, a few hundred grams of barley malt are needed. However, Keukeliere (2010) indicates that in the absence of barley malt, starch-rich adjuncts such as wheat, corn or rice can be used.
Keukeliere (2010) notifies ...

Abstract

This experiment aims at determining the Young’s Modulus (E) by using the strain gauge technique. It is determined for a simply supported beam by measuring the strain in the beam when it is loaded in 3 point bending. i.e. load is applied exactly at the center of the beam. The bending of a beam is an example of Hooke’s Law, which states that, when an elastic body is strained in any way, the deformation is directly proportional to the applied stress provided the body is not strained beyond its elastic limit. In this experiment, Young’s Modulus is studied ...

The name and the color are printed in a color denoted by the name of the color. This test is normally used to determine the influence of sex, age and educational level on attention and cognitive flexibility Afsaneh et al (2012). The naming of these colors usually takes longer and sometimes involves errors. In the past, several different versions of the Stroop tests have been developed with variations in the number ...

Introduction

The destructive testing of the materials is often used to find out the material properties. The mechanical property is based on the parameters obtained from the material testing. The testing involves tensile testing, hardness testing, creep testing, and impact testing. The non destructive testing involves interaction of energy with the materials. It is necessary to decide the behaviour of the material by knowing the property of the materials. The structure of the material at the atomic level will guess the characteristic of the material at the atomic level. The materials fall into the category of metallic, ceramic, and polymeric. ...

It’s Application to Corporate Governance in the 21st Century.

Corporate governance has been defined differently by various authors. According to Turbull (1997, p.1), “corporate governance describes all the influences that govern the institutional processes, including those for controlling and regulators, involved in the production and sale of goods and services”. As such, this definition indicates that corporate governance encompasses all types of firms (Donaldson, & Preston, 1995). Another school of thought has suggested that the system to govern companies, which entails controlling and directing the activities of those companies, is what constitutes corporate governance (Cohen, 1995). In essence, this system includes the market mechanisms, as well as regulatory frameworks ...

Salmon Fish

The Atlantic salmon fishes are known for their strong, streamlined bodies and their ability to move through steep rivers in fresh and salt waters as their habitat (Jonsson and Jonsson 2). The term “Salmo” is a Latin term which means salmon that originated from the word “salar” which means to leap. The Atlantic salmon are anadromous which means that they spawn in freshwater and acquire most of their food while they explore the marine habitats (Jonsson and Jonsson 2).
The management systems used for production of transgenic Atlantic salmon is similar as those that are being presently used for non-transgenic ...

INTRODUCTION

Physical activity is a much smaller priority among youth in America and other countries, including the UK (Brockman et al., 2010). These habits of a sedentary lifestyle most often translate into inactivity as an adult as well, increasing the risk of mortality and disease (Gustafson and Rhodes, 2006). Obesity and cardiovascular disease is often linked to inactivity in children, causing significant health problems for youth around the world (Cleland and Venn, 2010). More successful interventions promoting physical activity in youth must be found and implemented if youth health is to be improved.

Active play is one method in which physical activity ...

Abstract

The experiment involved the investigation of the young’s modulus of different beams made from different materials. The beams that were used for the test were steel, aluminum and timber. The experiment involved placing of the beams on the measurement machine shown below and addition of loads at the center of the beam. The loads were then varied across the beams while investigating the relationship that existed between the beams when different loads were added. The height, width, and the respective deflections were therefore recorded for analysis. The dial gauge was used to measure the deflection of the beam ...

Abstract

The aim of this experiment was to determine the relationship between the Young’s Modulus and the deflection of a beam. Since different materials have different values of Young’s Modulus, the students selected three different materials for the experiment. In this case, the materials used include timber, aluminium, and steel. All the materials were identical in terms of the dimensions such as width and length. The each beam of the three materials was subjected to some magnitude of force at the centre and deflection measured. Data concerning the magnitude of load and the corresponding defection were then gathered ...
