Bengal Tigers
Number of pages: 1 | Number of words: 263.... parks. It is now strictly protected. Some males occupy a territory of 200 square miles. When there is enough food, the tiger lives in a much smaller territorty. It lives in the forest, the grassland, or the swamps.
The tiger attacks a variety of prey, mainly deer, antelopes, pigs and buffalo. Once in awhile, it will attack cattle and even humans. There are many stories about the evils done by "man-eating" tigers. They're usually old tigers that are sick or wounded, and cannot hunt normally. The destruction of their usual prey may also cause them to attack humans. As soon a .....

Atom And Qi
Number of pages: 8 | Number of words: 2055.... of ¡¥qi¡¦ and make it conceivable by modern physicists, the use of the scientific method becomes the qi researchers¡¦ best tool. In addition, while qi and the atom were both conceived by ancient philosophers, the notion of the atom was better developed by scientists than the idea of qi. Therefore, by looking back at the historical progression towards a belief in atoms and the deduction of their structure, we know how scientists built up the atomic theory. Consequently, the concept of historical progression will help us understand why the notion of qi is hard to define by p .....

Keeping The Snake River Dams
Number of pages: 2 | Number of words: 413.... According to a Protecting the Environment ’99 article “A look at the impacts of removing dams” by Chris Fowler, it states, “The listing triggered a series of events which have led the Army Corps of Engineers to consider the removal of four dams on the Lower Snake River.” There is no disputing the fact that the number of native salmon swimming in the rivers and streams of the Pacific Northwest are dangerously low levels. Most experts believe native salmon will be gone in 25 years. The endangered salmon species can travel thousands of miles in their lifetimes, making them susc .....

Air Pollution
Number of pages: 2 | Number of words: 320.... causing adverse effects such as acid rain in areas far from the
emission site. The worldwide increase in the burning of coal and oil since the late 1940s
has led to increasing concentrations of carbon dioxide. The resulting greenhouse effect has
reduced the escape of infrared radiation from the earth, causing a possible global warming
trend.
The Prevention of Air Pollution
To cut down on all the pollution being released into the air, we have removed the
pollutant before materials are used, removed the pollutant after it is formed, or altered the
process to lower pollutant l .....

Ionic Bond
Number of pages: 2 | Number of words: 536.... to see at which point a precipitate no longer occurs. Ksp will then be stated as a range of values at room temperature, and the precipitate test tubes will be heated until the precipitate is dissolved so that Ksp may be observed and determined at different levels.
In this experiment various solutions of lead nitrate and potassium iodide were mixed at a number of different dilutions. Through the observation of the amount – or lack of precipitate formed in each dilution, the mathematical relationship between the ions in a saturated dilution may be determined. This .....

Wind Tunnels
Number of pages: 6 | Number of words: 1387.... The object in the wind tunnel is fixed and placed in the test
section of the tunnel and instruments are placed on the model to record the
aerodynamic forces acting on the model.
Types of Wind Tunnels
There are four basic types of wind tunnels. Which are low subsonic,
transonic, supersonic, and hypersonic. The wind tunnels are classified by the
amount of speed they can produce. The subsonic has a speed lower then the speed
of sound. The transonic has a speed which is about equal to the speed of sound
(Mach 1 760 miles per hour at sea level). . The supersonic (Mach 2.75 to .....

Microbiology
Number of pages: 8 | Number of words: 2025.... forms that can
only be observed by means of a microscope. Microbiologists use many
criteria to classify bacteria.
The Beginning of Microbiology
Zacharias Jansen created the microscope. Although Robert Hooke is
the one who made it widely known. In 1665 Hooke published a book called
Micrographie. It contained his thoughts on chemistry as well as a
description and list of uses for a microscope. With this he opened the
door to microbiology.
For the first time the world was able to see very small creatures
and objects. From the use of a microscope he was able to make dr .....

Stephen J. Hawking By Rachel Finck
Number of pages: 6 | Number of words: 1564.... freedom to think about physics and the Universe.
Stephen Hawking has written many essays involving the unified theory,
which is a theory summarizing the entire of the physical world; a theory that
would stand as a complete, consistent theory of the physical interactions that
would describe all possible observations. Our attempts at modeling physical
reality normally consists of two parts: a) A set of local laws that are obeyed
by the various physical quantities, formulated in terms of differential
equations, and b) Sets of boundary conditions that tell us the state of some .....
