Hurricanes A-level
Number of pages: 4 | Number of words: 882.... development of the storm and consequently produces heavy rainfall.
When the hurricane reaches its maturity an eye develops in the centre, in the eye there is a relative area of subsiding pressure. Which is what causes clear skies, anomalous high temperatures and light winds. Eventually the eye disappears as a result of the descending air increasing instability, which in turn warms and increases the storms intensity. Around the eye there are towering Cumulo-nimbus clouds. The hurricanes decline as soon as the source of heat is lost/or removed. Although it can take between 9 and .....

Electrochemistry
Number of pages: 2 | Number of words: 446.... (more safely),
with less hazardous waste (better for the environment), and in higher
yields (better for your wallet) than a similar process using chemical
reagents. Some synthetic processes can only be done using electrochemical
methods, and electrochemical methods are used in the large-to-medium-scale
synthesis of organic "fine chemicals" because of the financial, safety and
environmental advantages. Here's a page outlining some current research by
one of my graduate school professors.
I can think of at least three common uses of electrochemistry:
pH meters and other measuri .....

ACID RAIN
Number of pages: 2 | Number of words: 449.... The threat posed by acid rain is not limited by geographic boundaries, for
prevailing winds carry the pollutants around the globe. For example, much
research supports the conclusion that pollution from coal-powered electric
generating stations in the midwestern United States is the ultimate cause of the
severe acid-rain problem in eastern Canada and the northeastern United States.
Nor are the destructive effects of acid rain limited to the natural environment.
Structures made of stone, metal, and cement have also been damaged or destroyed.
Some of the world's great monum .....

The Physics Of Scuba Diving: Swimming With The Fish
Number of pages: 17 | Number of words: 4541.... the underwater world, one must first master a few
skills. Certification is the first step of learning to dive. From qualified
professionals one must learn how to use the equipment, safety precautions, and
the best places to dive. This paper is designed to help give a general
understanding of the sport and the importance that physics plays in it. Self-
contained Underwater Breathing Apparatus, or SCUBA for short, is a hell of a lot
of fun. However, there is considerably more to Diving than just putting on a
wetsuit and strapping some compressed air onto ones back. As .....

The Water And The Waves
Number of pages: 2 | Number of words: 351.... the sunlight. We know that the sunlight is
a blend of lights of many colors - as we can prove for ourselves by passing
it through a prism, or even through a jug of water, or as Nature
demonstrates to us when she passes it through the raindrops of a summer
shower and produces a rainbow. We also know that light consists of waves,
and that the different colors of light are produced by waves of different
lengths, red light by long waves and blue light by short waves. The
mixture of waves which constitutes sunlight has to struggle through the
obstacles it meets in the atmos .....

Kevlar
Number of pages: 4 | Number of words: 936.... form liquid crystalline solutions due to the repetitiveness of its molecular backbone. The key for the structural requirement for the backbone is para orientation on the benzene ring, which allowed for rod-like molecular structures. This technology was used when Du Pont released aramid fiber in 1971.
What is it?
Kevlar is an aramid, a term invented as an abbreviation for aromatic polyamide. The chemical composition of Kevlar is poly para-phenyleneterephthalamide, and it is more properly known as a para-aramid. Aramids belong to the family of nylons. Common nylons, such as n .....

Mein Ghetto: Black Racism And Louis Farrakhan
Number of pages: 8 | Number of words: 1930.... "preacher", he has founded his own movement of black radicalism, based on Islamic fundamentalism, and incorporating his own brand of hatred against whites and other racial or religious or special interest groups.
This essay will examine some of the events that form part of the foundation of his philosophy, will examine essays written about Farrakhan by prominent academics, civil libertarians, and modern day economists, writers. Who is Louis Farrakhan, what does he preach, and why? This essay will attempt to shed some light on these questions, and as well Black rad .....

American Pit Bull Terrier
Number of pages: 11 | Number of words: 2848.... because my father of all people fell in love with "Molly" as she is now known. He has said on many occasions that Molly is the best dog he has ever had, and believe me, he has had many. The point is, APBT get a bad name because of the people who own them. In doing research for this paper I have become deeply fascinated with this breed and actually understand a great deal more about the APBT than the average person. But to understand more about the APBT, you must understand its history and its impact on society.
The (APBT) is a descendent of the original English bull-baiti .....
