...considering adding an hour and a half to the school day. There would be several negative effects if the school board extends the school day by one and a half hours. It would cause scheduling conflicts with out of school activities, students would be more drained at the end of the school day, and it may cause conflicts with sports in other districts. For these reasons, the school day should not be extended by one and a half hours. The school would have to spend more money if they decide to add one and a half hours to the end of the school day. Teachers would work longer hours and be paid more. This reason alone would be a significant increase in the spending of the school. There would have to be more materials because the students can’t sit for an extra one and half hours and not have work. Extra staff is also something that would have to be thought about because if there is an extra class added there has to be a teacher to teach it. The utility bills would be alot higher...

...RADIOACTIVE DECAY: A SWEET SIMULATION OF HALF-LIFE Purpose: The purpose of this experiment is to understand the concept of half-life, and use the scientific method (Observing and recording data).\ Introduction: Isotopes of elements have unstable nuclei; as a result, some of the particles within the nucleus are lost or emitted. This is known as nuclear decay. The amount of time for half of the sample of a radioisotope to decay is known as half-life. Radioactive decay is random process that simulates a first order rate process. The only "constant" in such a process is the time it takes for the activity to drop from any value to one-half that value. Materials: -Small pieces of candy marked on one side -Plastic/paper cup - Paper towel -Classmates Procedure: 1. Count your nuclei (candy). Write that number in the data table under the heading ‘’Number of Radioactive Nuclei.’’ In the column marked ‘’Prediction for Next Toss’’ write the number of radioactive nuclei you think you will have with your next toss. (Radioactive nuclei will be those candies with the marked side down.) 2. Place your ‘nuclei’ in a paper cup, cover and shake the cup. Pour the ‘nuclei’ onto the paper towel. Separate the ‘nuclei’ into two piles, one with the marked side up and the other with the marked side down. Count the number of ‘nuclei’ in each pile. On your data table, record the number of ‘radioactive nuclei’ candies with the marked side down. Predict how many radioactive ‘nuclei’...

...CAcT HomePage Rate and Order of Reactions Skills to develop Derive the integrated rate laws from differential rate laws. Describe the variation of concentration vs. time for 1st order reactions. Describe the variation of concentration vs. time for 2nd order reactions. Figure out order of reaction from concentration vs. time plots. Rate and Order of Reactions The rate of a chemical reaction is the amount of substance reacted or produced per unit time. The rate law is an expression indicating how the rate depends on the concentrations of the reactants and catalysts. The power of the concentration in the rate law expression is called the order with respect to the reactant or catalyst. This page deals specifically with first- and second-order reaction kinetics, but you should know that other orders such as zeroth-order and 3rd order may also be involved in chemical kinetics. Reaction Rates and Stoichiometry In acidic solutions, hydrogen peroxide and iodide ion react according to the equation: H2O2 + 2H+ + 3I- = 2 H2O + I3-. In this reaction, the reaction Rate can be expressed as decreasing Rate of H2O2, - d[H2O2]/dt decreasing Rate of H+, - d[H+]/dt decreasing Rate of I-, - d[I-]/dt increasing Rate of H2O, + d[H2O] /dt increasing Rate of I3-, d[I3-]/dt However, from the stoichiometry, you can easily see the following relationship: d[H2O2] 1 d[H+] 1 d[I-] 1 d[H2O] d[I3-] - ------- = - - ------ = - - ------- = - ------ = -------- ...

...The Quick Rating Method for Harness Racing I love to bet harness racing, but at the same time, I don't like to spend hours handicapping these races either. In truth, I'm a sports better. That is would I enjoy doing most, and I am good at it. But next to every sports books is the race book, and I like to play a few races. Of course, I like to win as well, so I have developed this basic rating method that puts me on live horses. Once you learn it, you usually can find good horses to bet right out of the program without spending an enormous amount of time handicapping. These quick ratings are based upon early speed and final time. Early speed because these horses have an advantage in harness racing over those horse that close. I then factor...

...to dig carefully around the object. Finally they uncovered appearance, and Stuart grave it up with his hands. Up came a half golden roman helmet, Stuart brushes the dirt of the helmet and the helmet was now shiny gold, it was decorate with signs, it really looks like signs from the roman time. Boat Mike and Stuart were speechless and they didn’t now what they have found. Mikes dad Stuart said the roman helm only was old clutter and he go bag to his business. To difference mike think the roman helm was so exiting. Because he just had Learn about the Roman time at his school so he knew exactly how such a helmet looked. He was sure that this half helmet was from that time. So he left his father in the garden and went inside to look at the half Roman helmet. He polishes the half helmet completely clean so you could see every detail on it. The helmet was really heavy so Mike had to put it on his desk while. When Mike had polished the helmet clean and nice, he showed it to Stuart. Stuart was convinced and believed that it was from the Roman time as Mike had said. Mike and Stuart took a picture of the helmet and sent it to a U.S. top research firms, the company had looked at the pictures and they called Stuart, the company told Stuart that it was an amazing discovery and it was long time ago they had experienced such a find before. Now they put the half Roman helmet to study at the research firm. And both...

...character. Originally mermaids were half human half fish creature and sirens were half human half bird who sing to lure sailors to their death. In many movies, such as Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides, mermaids and sirens are combined into one creature. In Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides, characters refer to mermaids as a half human half fish creature that sing to lure sailors to their death. I am using this mermaid/siren creature as an example of a siren, since they have sired characteristics. My archetype is temptresses in greek mythology. The difference between greek mythologies and the movies trademark characteristics is their form. In greek mythology Sirens are half human and half bird and in the movie Sirens are half human half fish. This affects their setting as well....

...In your own time- consider the symbol of the bottle: What does it say about your “Self Image?” On the day the question was asked, I feel as half full because I see myself as experience with some qualification and the ability to gain more knowledge through learning and finishing the course in order to see the bottle as full. On the other hand I was scared of the fact that will I have time to study hard for this course to achieve the grade, I see the bottle as half empty because I have never done the course before even though I was optimistic, I do not know what to expect and I question myself if this bottle can at least be half full. As a mother of three girls, 2 already in high achievement and the last still in secondary school wanting to be like her sisters, with 4 grand children and 31yesayrs of marriage, I see my self image bottle as half full and not half empty because, I do believe that I have brought up my children to be able to have peace of mind and not having to think of their survival every time and if I have to die today, I know and am sure that they will not suffer nor become liability to the society. And for grandchildren, I have got the best of both I feel proud to be able to introduce them to anyone at any time , they are my pride and joy and for my marriage 31years of anyone’s life is history, I have broken history of some marriage s and this I am very proud of. I am with very little qualification but I am blessed with experience to be able to say...

...longer economically viable The penny is not worth the metal it is made out of. It is a coin that cost more to make than it is worth. The crux problem with the penny, in the modern economy, is that it will buy you nothing. Since nobody has the time to do a sales tax calculation in their head while waiting in line to buy their products, and even if you did the time would not be worth digging through your pockets, or purse, for exact change. No state will accept pennies in bulk and very few machines still take pennies. The only reasonable thing to do with pennies is store them in a giant glass jar and then dump them in a Coinstar, a machine that charges you 10% to spend money that you already have. The penny, at this point in time, manages to be both extremely useless and impractical, it is a Congressional gaffe that the penny is still being made. Making the penny is not cost effective, and pennies do not get used anyway. The penny is currently an out of date, economical blunder. As you probably know the penny is worth exactly a hundredth of a US dollar. This is all well and good, except the fact that it takes one and one half a cent more to make a penny. This means every time the U.S. Mint produces one penny it wastes one and a half cents. This may seem insignificant, however, according to the U.S. Mint almost 5 billion pennies were produced in 2011 alone. That is 50 million dollars in pennies, at a cost of 7.5 billion dollars, so in just 2011 taxpayers lost 7.5 billion dollars...

...characterisation, imagery, word choice, tone, or any appropriate feature. One poem that deals with a imaginary person is 'Porphyria's Lover' by Robert Browning. The poem, in the form of a monologue, depicts a scene surrounding two lovers, with the main focus on Porphyria throughout the first thirty lines, and then on her lover in the second thirty lines. This portrays a sense of dominance of Porphyria in the first half of the poem, and conveys the speaker as submissive and victimised. Throughout the poem, Browning displays effective uses of various poetic techniques to give a convincing portrayal of the speaker - he presents himself as a victim, then suddenly murders Porphyria, with the expectation that the reader will have no objections, that the act is perfectly acceptable. The poem begins with a romantic portrayal of the lovers, and the central thematic concern appears to be love; however as the poem progresses, it becomes clear that the theme is power. This becomes more apparent as the poem goes on, with the abrupt change of mood in the change from the first half to the second half of the poem. Using this change, among other features, Browning skilfully makes use of various poetic techniques to portray the personality of the speaker and makes use of the monologue form to do so also. One of the main features of the poem that conveys the personality of the speaker is Browning's use of rhyme and rhythm. The regular rhyme scheme ABABB throughout the poem creates a conversational tone...

...Solar System. It is the largest natural satellite of a planet in the Solar System relative to the size of its primary, a quarter the diameter of Earth and 1⁄81 its mass . The Moon is the second densest satellite after Io. It is in synchronous rotation with Earth, always showing the same face; the near side is marked with dark volcanic maria among the bright ancient crustal highlands and prominent impact craters. It is the brightest object in the sky after the Sun, although its surface is actually very dark, with a similar reflectance to coal. Its prominence in the sky and its regular cycle of phases have since ancient times made the Moon an important cultural influence on language, calendars, art and mythology. The Moon's gravitational influence produces the ocean tides and the minute lengthening of the day. The Moon's current orbital distance, about thirty times the diameter of the Earth, causes it to appear almost the same size in the sky as the Sun, allowing it to cover the Sun nearly precisely in total solar eclipses. The Moon is the only celestial body on which humans have landed. While the Soviet Union's Luna programme was the first to reach the Moon with unmanned spacecraft in 1959, the United States' NASA Apollo program achieved the only manned missions to date, beginning with the first manned lunar orbiting mission by Apollo 8 in 1968, and six manned lunar landings between 1969 and 1972—the first being Apollo 11. These missions returned over 380 kg of lunar rocks, which...

...Flying the American Flag at Half Staff When should the flag be flown at half-staff? An easy way to remember when to fly the United States flag at half-staff is to consider when the whole nation is in mourning. These periods of mourning are proclaimed either by the president of the United States, for national remembrance, or the governor of a state or territory, for local remembrance, in the event of a death of a member or former member of the federal, state or territorial government or judiciary. The heads of departments and agencies of the federal government may also order that the flag be flown at halfstaff on buildings, grounds and naval vessels under their jurisdiction. On Memorial Day the flag should be flown at half-staff from sunrise until noon only, then raised briskly to the top of the staff until sunset, in honor of the nation’s battle heroes. In the early days of our country, no regulations existed for flying the flag at half-staff and, as a result, there were many conflicting policies. But on March 1, 1954, President Dwight Eisenhower issued a proclamation on the proper times. The flag should fly at half-staff for 30 days at all federal buildings, grounds, and naval vessels throughout the United States and its territories and possessions after the death of the president or a former president. It is to fly 10 days at half-staff after the death of the vice president, the chief justice or a retired chief justice of the United States Supreme Court, or the speaker of the...
