Just last year, the national poverty rate rose to include 13.2 % of the population. Also, 3.5 million people were forced to sleep in parks, shelters, under bridges or in cars.

Unit 8 Assignment 1 20. Because the magnetic force which deflects the electrons is defined by F = q * v x B (v x B is the cross product of the 2 vectors), so: The force vector would always be perpendicular to both the v and B vectors. Since the force is perpendicular to the electron's velocity vector, and thus the path of the electrons, the work done by the field on the electrons is 0, because W = F*d*cos(theta), and theta=90 degrees, therefore cos(theta)=0, and W=0 If W = 0 then

System Performance: Unit 8 Edward Greene NT 1110 When addressing system performance, a key element that is often overlooked is Disk Fragmentation. Even on a brand new system with plenty of RAM and processing speed, the performance of the hard disk may be a bottleneck causing issues. It takes time to load large data files into memory - issues become particularly noticeable when dealing with movies, video clips, database files or image files which may easily be several gigabytes in size. On a
