cable modem: ABSTRACT Cable modems are devices that allow high-speed access to information at a distant server may it be Internet server or video on demand server‚ via a cable television network. While similar to the traditional (analog) dialup modems‚ a cable modem is significantly more powerful‚ capable of delivering data approximately 500 times faster. During the early to mid - 1990s‚ the two-way interactive communication capability of the existing cable network infrastructure was realized

"A carbon fiber is a long‚ thin strand of material about 0.005-0.010 mm in diameter and composed mostly of carbon atoms. The carbon atoms are bonded together in microscopic crystals that are more or less aligned parallel to the long axis of the fiber. The crystal alignment makes the fiber incredibly strong for its size. Several thousand carbon fibers are twisted together to form a yarn‚ which may be used by itself or woven into a fabric. The yarn or fabric is combined with epoxy and wound or molded

ALLIANZE UNIVERSITY COLLEGE OF MEDICAL SCIENCES Physics Lab Experiment Geometrical Optics Name : INTRODUCTION Friction is a force (measured in Newtons) acting along the surfaces of two objects in physical contact that impedes the relative motion of these objects (the motion of one with respect to the other). As such‚ it can be said that friction always acts opposite the motion of the object or the force applied. There are two main types of friction: Static friction: the frictional

Environmental effects of copper Copper can be released into the environment by both natural sources and human actions. Examples of natural sources are wind-blown dust‚ decaying vegetation‚ forest fires and sea spray. Other examples are mining‚ metal production‚ wood production and phosphate fertilizer production. Because copper is released both naturally and through human activity it is very widespread in the environment. Copper is often found near mines‚ industrial settings‚ landfills and waste
