Chapter 3 Atoms and the Periodic Table

For centuries, many have tried to learn about the smallest particle. As far as 2500 years ago, Democritus and Leucippus created an idea for the atom and called it ‘atmos’ meaning indivisible. Various philosophers and scientists have proposed models for what and how the atom should be. The initial theory proposed by Dalton in 1803 states that atoms are indivisible and that all atoms of a particular material are identical. He also stated that atoms of different materials join to form compounds. J.J. Thompson proposed the initial model of the atom. It is called the plum pudding model. He ...

Jack Welch was the CEO and President of GE for many years. During his tenure, he transformed GE from a marginally profitable company, to one that enjoyed either a number one or number two position in each of its market segments. Welch was able to do this by using differentiation in both the way that each strategic business unit was operated, and also in the way that he used differentiation to manage GE’s employees.
After Welch retired, he wrote many books that outlined his business and management philosophies, and how he had ruled the GE Empire successfully, and ...

The justice system in America is supposed to be comprised of the top officials this country has to offer. Skilled men and women from across America are supposed to put their talents to work when it comes to preventing crime, and rehabilitating criminals. Lately, we have been falling short on both fronts. In an effort to rehabilitate criminals, parole officers have implanted many different strategies. Two of these strategies are the casework supervision model and the brokerage supervision model. They are very different in type and use, designed to help previous offenders reshape their lives. However, between the two, ...

Summary of the Article

The article generally speaks of the reality of forgiveness and what it brings to other people in an individual and group basis. It begins with the realization that, according to studies, forgiveness interventions results in decreased anxiety, depression, and anger, and in increased self-esteem, hope, and positive affect (Magnuson & Enright, 2008). These factors show that forgiveness can provide beneficial impacts upon society at large.
The model for forgiveness intervention by Enright and Worthington were first implemented in educational institutions as a social scientific work. However, an emphasis was given on the fact that forgiveness first finds its shape in ...

Importance of Teaching Pragmatics in a Foreign Language Classroom

Abstract
Pragmatics requires a well-defined environment for the learner to grasp the basic concepts of communicative aspects of the target language. The complexity and sophistication most foreign languages are characterized with, a foreign language student would take as long as 10 years to attach quality communicative meaning like the natives; this can be reduced by enhancing the quality of pragmatics for second language learners. Like every learning situation, the environment has a big role to play in the learning process. As a matter of fact, language is tied to culture and socialism and shaped by psychology; therefore, the most ...

Present arguments for Public Sector Collective bargaining
Lewin, Keefe, and Kochan (750) argue that collective bargaining in the public has been facing increasing criticism from the government for the past few years. The process where employees unite to negotiate with their employers for salaries and other benefits is argued to give the public sector an added advantage over their counterparts in the private sector. However, new evidence reveals that the public sector needs the collective bargaining more than ever. First, research reveals that the public sector workers make 4% lower compared to employees in the private sector (Budd 2006). ...

The Bayesian method, also known as Bayesian method, is an inferential rule that is commonly used whenever an update is required within any probability estimate (Cohen et al. 12-57). The estimates are done on hypotheses whenever additional evidence is in the process of acquisition. This technique is majorly used in statistics and more especially mathematical statistics. In most of the cases involving the usage of Bayesian method requires, that it be derived through statistical methods. The derivation is usually automatic and ensures that the method well in combination with other competing methods that could have otherwise been used. This ...

INTRODUCTION
Various impact dynamic systems have been modelled postulating the expected drilling speed and displacement at given speeds. One of the most basic model [Fig 1(a)] that has been used involves a mass loaded with a force composed of static and harmonic components. Though the model is simple, the model also produces highly complex dynamics where the progression occurs at periodic system response.
However, the stick slip phenomenon observed in this motion of the rock and the drill bit is not analyzed and therefore a more realistic model is required. The other model involves modeling the motion between ...

Abstract

For curriculum development, it is a requirement that, as a principle, one gets to know what needs to be developed and understands the ways through which he will achieve the same. Past research on effective leadership has always portrayed the principal as an instructional leader in terms of curriculum development (Olivia & Gordon 2013). However much curriculum development has been named as a crucial task by past researchers, many school principals do not head it in their list of priorities in their schools (Olivia & Gordon 2013). It would be important if principals in schools worked hard to see to it ...

This article explains the relationship that exists between government spending and economic growth through the multiplier process. This is shown using the aggregate expenditure model. The model comprises of; total consumption expenditure (C), government purchases (G), net exports (X-M) and net investment (I). The article further explains that equilibrium in the macroeconomic model is attained when the aggregate expenditure (AE) is equal to the gross domestic product (GDP). From the article, little government expenditure facilitates high economic growth, while too much expenditure may lead to decrease in economic growth. The government should utilize the available resources in the most ...

With every business or organization, there is a business model. Each individual industry tends to have a standard model in which organizations conduct their business. However, this is not always the case. Take for example the PGA Tour. Rather than follow the patterns of most other sports organizations and teams, this company has created its own model in order to make the best use of its resources. By making the best use of its limited resources, supporting charities and players, and creating a strong business culture, the PGA Tour creates an experience which retains its fans, players, and partnering ...

TMA 01 Part 1: Summarizing and interpreting a table

The information in the table can be used to explain aggressive behavior. The results show that children who were exposed to an aggressive model behaved more aggressively than compared to the children in the control condition. This shows that exposure to an aggressive model increases the amount of aggressive behavior that is shown by children. It did not matter whether the model was in a film or live. It also did not matter whether the model was a fantasy creature or human (Oates, J. 2005, 123). This can be seen from the table as the average imitative aggression was ...

Introduction

Impact energy has been used to drill rock formations for many decades now. The various tools that have been used for this purpose include percussive drills, percussive hammers, down hole hammers, and so on. Percussive drilling dynamics has been possible using drifting oscillator models. This has been used to characterize the optimum conditions of the applied forces (both static and dynamic). And in this case, the sliders provide the contact force required during interactions. This force acts on the drill-bit, and the model accounts for contact geometrics in the crashing phases of the interactions.
