2/20/13 Clauses and Phrases Clauses and Phrases To understand punctuation, it is helpful to understand the difference between a phrase and a clause. I. A phrase is a collection of words that may have nouns or verbals, but it does not have a subject doing a verb. The following are examples of phrases: leaving behind the dog smashing into a fence before the first test after the devastation between ignorance and intelligence broken into thousands of pieces because of her glittering

unique scenarios of both elastic and inelastic collisions, I was able to conclude that speed and velocity are both conserved. This conclusion was made through the change in velocity of a cart relative to its "crasher". For example: throughout the different-mass elastic collisions, the speed that which the cart started and ended were equivalent - indicating that there was conservation of speed, in addition to the complete transfer of velocity. However, in the different-mass elastic collisions, the transfer

will measure the motion of two carts before and after elastic collision. The cart masses can be measured by using a simple mass scale. * Then, total momentum of the two carts before collision will be compared to the total momentum of the two carts after collision.

RULES OF MIXTURES FOR ELASTIC PROPERTIES The paper is about the rules of mixtures which are used to express the dependencies of the physical properties and mechanical properties which depend on type, form, quality and arrangement of its constituents, but they are based on various assumptions so one should with caution, especially if they are used anything more than preliminary design. The paper mainly concentrates on expressions for elastic properties which are as follows: Unidirectional Ply-

Independent clause: are complete sentences and can stand on it’s own Example of an independent clause: The plant on the front porch died. * Dependent clause: is a group of words with a subject and a verb. It does not express a complete thought so it is not a sentence and can’t stand-alone. Example of an dependent clause: If I don’t come by noon. * How to separate a sentence into 2 sentences (3 ways) 1. Add a comma + coordinating conjunction 2. Semicolon 3.
