If an extrovert needs a constant dialogue with the people, an introvert can successfully do without it. An introvert is capable of minimal contact, which is also necessary, but it happens rarely and only in the companies ...

Raman spectroscopy is dependent on scattering of light. When light interacts with matter, energy exchange can take place through absorption, simulated emission, Raman scattering or spontaneous emission. In Raman scattering, the emitted photons have less energy and lower frequency in comparison with the absorbed photons. Some energy of the emitted photons is transferred to the molecules. Raman spectroscopy is a method which collects the chemical fingerprints associated with molecules. Every molecule has different levels of vibrational energy and the emitted photons experience shift in their wavelengths. The wavelength shifts are collected,examined and analyzed for sample identification. Raman spectroscopy ...

Impact Testing of Metals

Abstract Impact testing of metal experiment was conducted by performing Charpy V-notch impact tests and the ductile-brittle transition temperature of the three metallic samples was established. Three samples of metals were studied ( 1018 hot-rolled steel, brass and aluminum) to assess the Charpy V-notch impact energy as a function of temperature and the ductile-brittle transition temperature. The DBTT for the sample tested were recorded as follows: -109F, 32F, 71F, 140F and 205F respectively. From the results obtained, it is evident that the fracture energy varies with the original temperature of the specimen under investigation. For Steel, the highest fracture energy ...

Abstract

Introduction The history of Europe indicates that communication in the region was only limited to certain route maps. The route maps were drawn to connect different stations with orders being sent out with messages. Although in some cases the message was written covering sensitive issues, the messages were dictated to the messenger and repeated to the receiver. This system was highly inconvenient since the individuals were often pushed into placing their trust on an individual and the telegraph came to end this (Carey 12). Distortion of the messages often led to the need for repetition or affected how well ...

Throughout the course of modern history, numerous events have revolved around the Middle East, affecting the cultural perspectives of the people living there. For instance, the Russian invasion of Afghanistan and the subsequent political maneuvering by Western/Arab nations spawned decades of bloodshed in the region, destroying both an entire generation of people and the viability of a nation. The creation of Israel in 1948 created a massive power shift in the region, as the Arab nations attempted to retake the territory but were soundly defeated, and again in 1967. The Second World War engulfed the North African Muslim countries, ...

I. Introduction Researches argued that there was little evidence to accurately determine the early language in England. While the region was inhabited by humans for thousands of years, and that the presence of culture was detected, it was noted that the English language has been only adopted for a comparatively short span of time. History revealed that the English language we have today is a product of the different spoken dialects of the Germanic tribes who immigrated to England sometime in the 5th century. The development of the English language is comparable to a division of historical periods, and ...

Poetry, though it dominated literary studies for centuries, has declined in recent years for various reasons. From Homer and Virgil to T.S. Eliot and Walt Whitman, poetry was a literary mode held in greater regard by the general public than mediums such as the novel and theater. While one may argue, this decline results from verse being an obsolete mode of expression, the more likely cause for poetry’s growing obscurity takes the form of growing elitism that excludes anyone who has not studied poetry from enjoying verse. The modern era has brought with it a culture that values ...

A look at the problems that face the world which include wars, disease, and injustice among others would prompt a re-evaluation of the social system that is in place. It is evident that the system has not led to an overall improvement in humanity. The common underlying factor among the various social ills that face the world today is the adoption of capitalism as the predominant mode of production and social ordering. The need to outdo the competition and maximize productivity in order to increase profits as the primary motivation for capitalism makes the system susceptible to abuse hence ...
