Essays on Floating

It was a beautiful sunny day with white clouds sailing in the blue sky. I kept walking enjoying the breeze blowing in the face. Lost in my thoughts, I suddenly realized it was very dark and I was lost in forest so deep where I could not even see the stars. Apparently I walked into a dimensional portal that transported me into a different place. I am no longer in a dark forest but I was now floating in the middle of a galaxy. The short time that I could not see the stars was replaced with the most ...

While some of the works are remarkably similar to the originals, the others depart at a point to create an altogether a new meaning. However, the replicas remind one strongly of the original works and ...

Wave and Wind Power Generation

Wind Physics Basics Wind is atmospheric air which is in motion Energy Source The earth surface absorbs solar radiation differently. Some parts absorb more radiation than other. This creates pressure zones. As a result of pressure, air moves from high-pressure zones to low-pressure zones. This causes atmospheric air motion known as wind. Wind is a renewable source of energy. It is constantly available free of charge (Bhattacharyya, 2011).

Spatial scales

The notion of ‘space’ in art and architecture was a highly debated topic especially since space is a rather abstract and cannot be seen by naked eye alone. However, every place has space for it interacts with every works of art whether it is sculpture, painting, or landscape.

Introduction

The exchange rate has become an integral component of modern economics. Its role stems from its far-reaching effects on the economy of a country, investments, the profitability of firms, and personal finances. Countries have become even more interdependent due to the rapid advancement in communication technologies and the expansion of global trade, which have significantly reduced the geographical distance between both individuals and countries. However, since nations use a broad range of domestic currencies with different values, trading partners must, therefore, rely on currency conversion methods to facilitate global transactions. This paper explores the importance of exchange rate and ...

Pertaining to the scenario in which the Thai government decided to peg their currency (the Thai Baht) to the U.S. dollar, Thailand could possibly experience inflation due to the artificial valuation of their currency to a more established currency, (Moreno, R., 2000). That being said, the United States would not experience inflation as a result of this agreement. In fact, the United States would benefit because the Thai government would have to invest in the United States stock market and the Thai stock market, which would invariably help the United States economy, (Moreno, M., 2000). Relating to import/exports and ...
