A magneto is small generator formed from a permanent magnet, which uses electricity to give outputs such as pulses of high voltage. A magneto has a transformer, switch and distributor, which give alternating current the direction to the plug that produces sparks. Timing in magneto is the interval in which the breaking point occurs after producing the sparks. Therefore, the purpose of magneto timing is to actualize high voltage used to produce sparks at the right time. It is achieved through the internal and external timing. Internal timing takes place mechanically on a bench. There are two adjustments in ...

Errors involved in digital image capturing and processing can either be systematic or random. Systematic errors are classified into geometric distortions, spectral errors and distortions. Geometric distortions are caused by sensor-Earth geometric variations which affects the position of a pixel relative to other pixels,. In digital images, the pixel position is compared to the other pixels in the scene and the absolute position of the pixel relative to real coordinates in latitudes and longitudes. Geometric distortions can render the image and the information expected to be derived from the image as useless,. This is because the image is sometimes ...

Introduction

In more ways than one, the conceptualized constructs demarcating the means by which money exchange takes place within the contemporary world economy are profuse than they might actually appear. The ideology of a contemporary capitalism culture can be split two ways; the thinking of a financializer versus that of a technologist. This paper will take on a triangulation approach at trying to deconstruct the ideals of contemporary capitalism. By cross-referencing different theorizations, the two loudly acclaimed arrangements of abstraction – financialization and technological abstraction – shall be extrapolated and used to establish the actual stand concerning the doctrine of capitalism today.

Abstract

The understanding of the performance of an aircraft is one of the most important issues that many stakeholders in the aviation sector aspire to understand comprehensively. A significant number of aircrafts experience challenges in the process of take-offs or when they are landing. However, through research, engineers have discovered that the climb performance of many aircrafts is affected by several factors including incidences of collision with various obstacles. It is also crucial to acknowledge that an aircraft is characterized by performances in different speed conditions. Through the performance at each speed condition, engineers are able to predict that manner ...

Overview

Polyvinylidene fluoride is one of the polymers that are used as membrane material. This is because of its outstanding properties. Besides its comparatively high amount of fluorine, the polymer also has a high level of crystallinity. The result of these properties are exhibited in the performance of the Polyvinylidene fluoride polymer. For instance, the chemical stability of Polyvinylidene fluoride in chlorinated solvents and environments that are highly caustic and acidic is very high. Another property of the polymer is its hydrophobicity. This means that it is not compatible with water. This would create challenges if the polymer were to ...

Solar energy harnessing through the use of solar panels installed in small homes presents better alternative to the hydroelectric provided through the national grid. While the use of solar panels may provide several advantages over the use of hydroelectricity, its usage presents several pitfalls to the user. It is imperative to investigate and outline the possible costs and advantages associated with the use of solar panels as a source of harnessing solar energy before installation is started. In most cases, the decisions concerning the installation of solar panels as the primary source of electricity are normally based on the ...

Introduction

How does the factor of gender impact the concept of violent offending? One of the most commonly held notions is that males have a higher propensity to commit violent crimes compared to women. This holding is one of the most widely held concepts in the area of criminology. However, there is a growing debate as to the scope of the “gender gap” in terms of violent offending has shifted in recent years. A number of commentators hold that the gap is described in terms of its stability; others proffer that there is an observable closing of the gap, particularly ...

The overhead football throw is one of the most popular sports movements amongst young males in America. It is an overhead throw with a football, which quarterbacks make when they throw the ball, usually for a great distance. Due to the shape of the ball, it should also have a particular twisting pattern so that the throw may be more accurate and fast. The main joints involved are the elbow and the shoulder, so it is important to take them into account when discussing the motion’s biomechanics. The starting position of the movement is simply standing up, with ...

The crash of Air France 447 is considered the biggest disaster ever to hit Air France and Airbus since the beginning of their venture into this industry. All of the 228 passengers and crew of the flight were killed in this accident (Palmer, 2013). Due to the delay in the recovery of the black box from the ocean bed, the investigations and final report, published by BEA, took nearly three years for completion (Jonathan, 2011). The final investigation revealed that the accident occurred due to the inconsistent data indicated by the FMC (Flight Management Computer System) regarding the fluid ...

The last one decade has been marked by a great evolution of how advertisements are translated. This process is currently known as “advertising localization” and focuses on dealing with having a successful translation of adverts from one language to another without changing the objective of the particular advertisement (Malmkjær & Windle, 2012). The act of advertising is an important tool when it comes to informing the consumer on the diversity of the products present in the market (Chidiac & Saliba, n.d). Various factors have led to the evolution with some including the trade intensification and the globalization of the economies. ...

Introduction

Blood behavior conforms to specific scientific principles and therefore, professionals trained to perform bloodstain pattern analysis can analyze the blood evidence in a crime scene and come up with conclusions as to how the blood shedding happened. The stains may appear to have a random distribution in a crime scene, but the analysts can study the spatter patterns, transfers, and other marks. From the physical evidence, the investigators recognize and interpret the patterns to determine how they were created. These marks are then categorized to recreate the sequence of events that occurred following the bloodshed. Blood stain pattern analysis, ...

The Muller-Lyer illusion is a useful tool for investigating the effects of the environment on human perception. The illusion shows that humans use the surroundings of an object to make a judgment of the size of that object, which is not necessarily accurate. The theory of size constancy suggests that we can usually make a judgment about the size of an object based on depth perception, the nearby objects, what we already know, and other factors. The Muller-Lyer illusion is an example of that system being tricked due to the presence of an acute or obtuse angle. It is ...

While all the components of a brake system are important, it is imperative to acknowledge that some components play significant roles in the system as compared to others. One such component is the brake pad. In most cases, the brake pad is referred to as the friction material. It is responsible for generating the friction which opposed the movement of the wheel thus causing a stop to the movement of the automotive. This report is aimed at selecting a section or component of the brake system and presents its modification. As a consequence, the report highlights and discusses the ...

Ventilator-associated pneumonia

Abstract The intensive care unit in most hospitals plays the role of providing care to patients dealing with life-threatening conditions. The technological and other set ups in these hospital units are vital in ensuring that these patients continue to receive the best regarding care while with the intentions of having them emerge with desirable outcomes. There are however challenges relating to the care that these patients receive since, in most cases, they are usually under mechanical ventilation. A patient under this condition faces the risk of developing ventilator-associated pneumonia if the ventilators are not handled with the required care. ...

Summary

The article discusses the way Chinese and Americans understand their culture and the way they understand each other’s culture. There are major differences in the way the Chinese see American culture due to its lack of history. Since, China is the oldest civilization still active, they have developed chauvinism about their history and see other cultures as inferior. The Chinese consider their culture as far advanced and deep as it has historical roots of ancient civilization. The Chinese interpretation of American culture is that it is made by several European or immigrant cultures. The article identifies that Chinese ...

Sensors detect an input event and control an output event. The output often requires different timing than that of the input event. Sometimes several inputs must jointly produce an output event. In other words, logic alters the raw sensor signal so that it is directly useful for controlling local action in response to sensed events (Ouzounov et al., 2006). A sensor is an interactive application; it expresses interest in an event by defining a sensitive ‘region' and an event type. For example, if a sensor wishes to receive events directed to a geographical object, it can define its region ...

Below is the result when i2cdetect –y 1 is typed allowing the Raspberry Pi to detect the connected slaves through I2C. ...

Low-Earth Orbits may be defined as ones within a locus extending from the Earth’s surface up to an altitude of 1,200 miles. It is this orbit in which the atmosphere drag is minimal, if not totally absent. The Low-Earth Orbit finds varied use in space technology. This orbit is used to visit the International Space Station or the Space Shuttle to perform experiments, installations and repair of astronomical equipments (Iowa State University, 2016). Satellites are a vital part of this orbit. They are required for varied purposes such as communication, weather, GPS, space travel etc. A satellite ...

As a mobile robot operates in environment, its actual position and orientation are not exactly the same as targeted. Therefore, it is important to know about the robot’s definite current position for controlling it. In this section, three methods for positioning are described; using encoders, using ultrasonic ranging sensor, and using both ultrasonic and encoder sensors.

Positioning Using Encoder

In order to position the robot using encoders, it is necessary to take two steps. First, encoders should provide the current robot position. Second, it is important to reach the target position given by the supervisor.

Receiving the Robot’s Current Position Using Encoder

It is imperative to know the ...

In developing countries, credit restrains and the high poverty levels contribute to incidences of child labor. Statistics indicate that nearly 100 to 200 million people, worldwide, under the age of 15 years are engaged in employment opportunities. Natural reactions are drawn towards the eliminations of this child labor practice; key being the need to ban the phenomenon as well as ban imported products out of child labor. It is important, however, to understand the economic factors that lead to the existence of child labor. Despite the returns of education being higher than the returns of engaging in employment, parents ...

Issues with subjective questionnaires? Subjective questionnaires in the collection of information are said to lack external validity. This is because they tend to limit the respondent’s feedback to the confinement of the specific details that whoever constructed the questionnaires wants. This type of questionnaires may not give accurate findings if not carefully constructed because they might enquire information which the respondent is not willing to answer due to personal and private reasons and this might yield false feedback or reluctance to respond. They subject the respondent to what they ought to answer and limit the information gathering scope ( ...

Nosferatu: Phantom of the night/the Vampyre is a film by Werner Herzog. This movie is about vampires thus its setup somewhat gothic. Consequently, in this paper we are going to analyze how photography has been used in this film since it appears to seep into the bones of the audience. In this film, the color that has been applied in photography can be said to be saturated since it is deep, rich and heavy. The earth appears to be colder and dirty and the use of green has been limited thus the appearance is somewhat wet. The appearance of ...

The novel Emma was written by Jane Austen in 1815 and the film directed by Douglas McGrath was released in 1996 starring Gwyneth Paltrow. The film depicts British aristocracy of the 19th century in a great way through scenography and costumes of the era. There are not many differences between the film and the novel and the main points are conveyed in detail. The impact and significance of the film differs than the impact and significance of the novel because the film has more possibilities of conveying the atmosphere through acting, music, costumes, mise-en-scene and the overall scenography as ...

1) What is the importance of Geodesy for Surveying? Why do you think that Geomatics

Should students know about Geodesy? Discuss

Geology enables the determination of the alignment of land, including the position, territories, portion and shape through the application of theodolites, land data systems or other geodetic survey tools. Also, it is through geology that resulted in the creation of the GPS (Geo Information Satellite) systems which as a result has resulted in the optimal exploration of space and regionally associated information. Besides, geodesy for surveying, aids in the assessing the quality of control information to regulate the necessity for extra survey information for ...

Why is there not an opportunity to launch a satellite if the launch-site latitude is greater than the inclination?

The Angle between the projection of the initial orbit plane and the north direction is referred to as the Launch Azimuth, (Dux et al. 2011, pp. 1-16). The Azimuth has several implications to the activities of launching a satellite. It creates three possible windows of launching. The launch window refers to the time during which a launch can be done directly from a specific site into an orbital plane. The window duration is affected by factors like the fuel requirements, safety, and the desired points of injection. The launch window is always at the center of the optimal launch ...

The machine transfers the painting film to the surface. There are many applications in the hydrographic painting in the automotive industry, interior design and industrial applications. The needs of customization and personalization are the force that gives the energy to this industry and the ...

Empathy is present in both the novel Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep and in the film Blade Runner based on this novel. Phillip K. Dick’s story is used to reveal a dystopian society in which humans and replicants cohabitate and these androids are detected by The Voight-Kampff test. However, it turns out that androids are capable of developing empathy as well as humans and that not all of them are the same, just like not all the people are the same. Humans possess empathy, but there is also a possibility of androids to acquire it. This point ...

In Shonda Rhymes’ “Scandal”, the appeal of the film comes from the opportunity it offers to the viewers to get closer to the close world of American politics, and into the White House.

Abstract

In this experiment, benzene was treated with hydrogen in the presence of Pt/SiO2 as an example that can be applied on industrial operations to show that the most recently modernized methods of neutron total scattering that cover a wide Q-range allow the use of appropriate catalytic chemistry that can be measured on time domain to probe directly on site the hydrogenation of benzene within the catalyst pore. Based on this method, it is possible to study the rates of reaction on length scales that can provide measurements equivalent to the size of an atom or a nanometre. Furthermore, the ...

DEFLECTION OF BEAMSIntroduction

Any kind of modern day construction makes use of a component called structural beam, or beam. A beam helps in adding strength of any design or structure. Generally manufactured using steel, wood, or concrete, it is commonly used for spanning any open element of a structure. In any design work based on iron, steel I beam is the most commonly used one. On the other hand, home-based constructions generally make use of wooden beams. When steel I beam is encased within concrete, it forms a concrete beam and is typically used in the construction of heavy structures, such as ...

Introduction

One of the biggest TV series that hit the US primetime television, The Walking Dead follows tells stories of moment-to-moment survival in the aftermath of a zombie apocalypse. The epic drama magnifies personal struggles that convey a thematic survivalist story as its core context. At the surface, it is easy to see how its title implies the dangers of the mindless walking corpses. However, the deeper meaning of the story reveals that it is not the zombies that were regarded, as the walking dead, but those who survived the apocalypse can be far more dangerous and worst than the ...

Question #8

Angular momentum refers to the resistance of a rotating body to change its spin rate or direction of spin. Angular momentum can be determined by the product of the moment of inertia and the angular velocity, or by the cross product of the moment arm and the product of the mass and velocity vector of the body (Sellers 2004, 112-113). For this particular problem, we will use the latter to determine the angular momentum. H=R×mV H=0.5 m×0.25 kg2 ms H=0.25 kg∙m2s Since angular momentum is conserved, the angular momentum of the system every point in time ...

Chapter 1 – Introduction to Color Study

1. What is the difference between direct light and reflected light? Give examples of each. Direct light travels from the source to the destination without being interrupted while reflected light is the light produced when the direct light bounces off a material. One example of direct light is the sunlight while reflection from the mirror is an example of reflected light (Young, Freedman & Ford, pp. 1080). 2. Describe the cause of color, the means used to generate it, and the effect. Light consists of a spectrum of light wavelengths which have a representative color; thus, upon reaching the retina ...

Introduction

There are a number of ways by which the media forms communicate with their audience and tend to convey the underlying themes and ideas using them. Specifically, in the case of films, the use of visual content, sound, construction of a shot and it’s editing, performance, recording, etc. It is obvious that an effective use of visuals aided by supporting multimedia always results in a deeper impact on the audience as the visual has a deeper response generation from the brain. This concept, when strategically used in the making of films results in tremendous changes in terms of ...

Introduction

Suspension bridges connect roadways between two land masses by links, ropes or cables hung from two large towers. These towers bolster most of the weight as pressure presses down on the deck of the suspension bridge and after that goes up the links, ropes or binds to transfer pressure to the towers. These bridge towers then disseminate the pressure directly to ground. The metal links on the suspension bridge, then again, have to bear all the bridge’s tensional forces. These cables are suspended across level planes between the two widely separated anchorages. Span docks are basically strong rock ...

I was fortunate to visit the beautiful Wynwood Walls, an art district in Miami, Florida. Before visiting the art district, I tried to get some more information on the gallery and what it had to offer to its visitors. I leant that Wynwood was a warehouse area at one time and full of dilapidated buildings (Wynwood Walls 2016). However, it is today a magnet for artists, who display their large sized works and lure Miami locals and visitors alike. It is just a couple of minutes away from downtown Miami and boasts of offering some of the most stunning ...

There are many hundreds and thousands of talented artists, but there are only several whose name is known to all people around the world. Claude Monet, father of the Impressionism movement, is one of them (Fitzgerald 181). He started from caricatures in his notebooks and grew into one of the renowned artists, whose talent and ability to see nature in its most astonishing manifestation inspired generations of artists. Throughout his life, he experimented with various techniques in order to find his vision. With help of Eugen Boudin, his mentor, who taught him techniques of outdoor painting, Claude Monet soon ...

Brian DePalma’s 1983 film Scarface is one of the most well-known drug and crime films in the history of popular culture. Everyone knows Tony Montana’s famous line, “say hello to my little friend” (DePalma, Scarface), regardless of whether they have even seen the film or not. However, what many people do not realize about the film are the many racial undertones and stereotypes that occur within the layers of context. The film is based around the conflict between Cubans and Americans, beginning with the importation of Cuban refugees to the United States to the escalation of the ...

It is an ascertained fact that the majority of individuals exert influence on others on a regular basis in order to achieve their personal objectives. Social influence may be divided into two fundamental categories: downward and upward influence. Upward influence is typically defined as influence attempts and strategies "that are directed at a target who occupies a role that is higher in the formal hierarchy than the influence agent" (Porter, Angle, and Allen 407). One of the most striking examples of exerting upward influence is a child trying to assert influence over parents. When I was a teenager, I ...

The film, A Brand New Life (2009), directed by the celebrated cinematic artist, Ounie Lecomte, is a South Korean work that can surely be deemed as a fine work of art.
