bounces back through the tube to the closed end, where it is reflected. the wave
has now completed a single cycle. It has passed through the tube four times
making the closed tube, one fourth the length of a sound wave. By a continuous
sound frequency, standing waves are produced in the tube. This creates a pure
tone.
We can use this knowledge of one fourth wavelength to create our own
demonstration. It does not only have to be done using wind, but can also be
demonstrated using tuning forks. If the frequency of the tuning forks is known,
then v=f(wavelength) can find you the length of your air column. .....

Effects Of Marijuana
Words: 1053 - Pages: 4.... Cannabis Indica, and Cannabis
Rudderalis. These three plants vary in size and mood altering
effect. The hemp plant has many uses and has been farmed for

angel dust.
The results are varied .....

The Periodic Table
Words: 340 - Pages: 2.... Mendeleev stated the periodic law: The properties of the elements are periodic functions of the atomic weights.
provides an easy way to show the division of the elements into acid-forming and base-forming types. Those on the left are base-forming; those on the right are acid-forming. Those in between can be either. They have so-called amphoteric oxides and hydroxides that can act like acids or bases. 's arrangement also divides the elements into metallic and nonmetallic kinds. A distinction is usually made between most pure metals and nonmetals according to physical and chemical properties.
Another virtue of is that it is universal. No .....

Bats
Words: 894 - Pages: 4.... 5. Disk-winged bats
of Latin America have adhesive disks on both feet that enable them to live in
unfurling banana leaves (or even walk up a window pane). 6. Nearly 1,000 kinds
of bats account for almost a quarter of all mammal species, and most are highly
beneficial. 7. Worldwide, bats are the most important natural enemies of night-
flying insects! 8. A single brown bat can catch over 600 mosquitoes in just one
hour! 9. Tropical bats are key elements in rain forest ecosystems which rely on
them to pollinate flowers and disperse seeds for countless trees and shrubs. 10.
Bat droppings in caves support whole ecosystems of unique organi .....

Amoxcillin has no effect on inhibitting the viral growth of Pneumonia influenza, Rhinovirus, Parainfluenza, Corona and respitory synctial viruses. This also eliminated the disease obviously effecting the respitory tract and the child's neurology (lethargy and malaise) form being bacterial or fungal, which is common amongst young children.
A number of viruses cause respitory illness similar to the common cold, but are much more severe in intensity and wit frequently serious, and even fatal, complications. The best known of the group is Influe .....

Computer Aided Drafting And Design
Words: 484 - Pages: 2.... were developed along with the computer. They were developed very slowly. They went from being very large, clumsy, elaborate machines which needed lots of human intervention to one program on a floppy disk. When the power of computers increased, so did the possibilities of CADD.
Images on CADD systems are drawn with the aid of a keyboard, mouse, or tracking ball. One selects the starting point of a line, the ending point, and the line is drawn. A scale at the bottom of the screen tells how long the line will be. On some CADD systems, the computer itself can measure how long the line will be while the operator inputs the length of the lin .....

Is Science Necessary For Our Future?
Words: 653 - Pages: 3.... he found he had
the power to create life. The doctor's scientific success in creating the
monster was ultimately a failure for morality. Frankenstein, upon
completion of his monster, realized the immorality of his work and rejected
it and disassociated himself from it and science. The result of
Frankenstein's immorality was death for just about everyone he loved and
utter despair for himself. The monster was not necessary for our future
and neither were the methods of his creation. Because of the doctor's
irresponsibility, he lost everything including his life.
The monster, spawned by the immoral science of Frankenstein, was

Ibuprofen

(CH3)2CHCH2 CH(CH3)COOH
Its role of action as a drug is not completely clear to the sciences,
but that with time w .....
