...LAWS AND FORMULAS THAT HAS DIRECT PRPORTION IN SCIENCE Henry's Law Henry's law is one of the gas laws formulated by William Henry in 1803. It states: "At a constant temperature, the amount of a given gas that dissolves in a given type and volume of liquid is directly proportional to the partial pressure of that gas in equilibrium with that liquid." An equivalent way of stating the law is that the solubility of a gas in a liquid is directly proportional to the partial pressure of the gas above the liquid. To explain this law, Henry derived the equation: C=kPgas Hooke's Law "Is proportional to" means "varies directly with", so the formula for Hooke's Law is "F = kd", where "F" is the force and "d" is the distance. Coulomb’s Law The magnitude of the electrostatic force of interaction between two point charges is directly proportional to the scalar multiplication of the magnitudes of charges and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them. The force is along the straight line joining them. If the two charges have the same sign, the electrostatic force between them is repulsive; if they have different signs, the force between them is attractive. Newton's law of universal gravitation states that any two bodies in the universe attract each other with a force that is directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance be wherein, Ohm’s Law states that the current through a conductor between...

...It demonstrates the problem he will be covering later in his article, “Henry V is one of Shakespeare's most appealing characters. He was rambunctious when young and courageous when older. But suppose Henry went to an American school. By about the third week of nursery school, Henry’s teacher would be sending notes home saying that Henry ‘had another hard day today,’” (1). The audience can relate to this character because he is being labeled as the typical young male, the one who gets in trouble regularly. Brooks makes an allusion to Shakespeare’s character because he believes it will entertain the audience more since it is not just any boy. When he says, ‘had another hard day,’ it is hinting that the problem he will discuss later on is about teenager boys having difficulties in school. For now, Brooks is just making his audience want to read more about how the boy’s behavior is the reason for him having problems in...

...Summary Australian law is based on the culture of English law. The following characteristics derive from the English background of our law: * A system of representative democracy, using parliaments to make laws. See chapters 7 & 8. * A legal profession divided formally or informally into solicitors and barristers. See chapter 3. * A ‘common law’ system: * The system of law derived from the English legal system. Uses judicially decided cases as the basic form of law. See chapter 10. * The way that the law is made: Judges make law based on decided cases (precedents) and develop sets of legal principles which emerge from the judgments in decided cases.’ See chapter 12, 13, and 14. * The category of laws which grew from the medieval royal courts (‘the courts of common law’) and other areas of law, which came from the medieval Lord Chancellor’s role (‘equity’). See chapter 10. * Decision making in courts after an adversarial trial: derived from historical ‘trial by battle’ introduced by Normans. The battle has since then become a verbal one. See chapter 2. * A court system for dispute resolution: See chapter 11. However, Australian law has developed distinct characteristics of its own: * A federal system made up of a Commonwealth and States and Territories: separates out the powers of different bodies of government. See chapter 8. * A limited recognition of indigenous customary law: Mabo (No 2) held that native title to land could...

The surviving spouse maintains the cost of the principal residence for six months. A. I, II, and III B. I and II, but not III C. I and III, but not II D. I only A. Incorrect. A taxpayer may file a tax return as a qualifying widow or widower for 2 tax years after the year in which a spouse dies provided the couple qualified to file a joint return for the year of death; that the taxpayer provided over 50% of the cost of maintaining the principal residence of a dependent child or stepchild; and that the taxpayer has not remarried as of the end of the current year. Maintaining the cost of the taxpayer’s principal residence for six months is not sufficient. B. Correct!
