1. There were several conceptual blocks experienced by the smokejumpers. The first conceptual block occurred when Dodge saw that the fire had crossed the gulch ahead of the crew and he redirected them to start ascending up the hill. The smokejumpers could not understand why Dodge would instruct them to go this route when it seemed much safer and more feasible to keep trekking toward the river. This is an example of compression. The smokejumpers were not seeking to find much needed information or

The conceptual block that was experienced by the smokejumpers was when they knew they would have to get on a plane. “The smokejumpers and their cargo were dropped on the south side of Mann Gulch at 4:10p.m. from 2‚000 feet rather than the normal 1‚200 feet‚ due to turbulence (p. 48). The parachute that was connected to their radio failed to open‚ and the radio was pulverized when it hit the ground.” (p.210). With the failed radio and the jump at 800 feet above average the smokejumpers mentality would

speed. This idea still holds true in modern computing. By the 1970s‚ computers grew fast enough to process an average user’s applications. But‚ they continued to occupy considerable amount of space as they were made of solid blocks of iron. The input was done by means of punch cards‚ and later came the keyboard‚ which revolutionalized the market. In 1971 came the 4004‚ a computer that was finally small in size. The programmability of these systems were quite less. Still‚ computers

Unfortunately‚ the data was all over the place‚ this is because the later I conduct the experiment‚ there is a higher chance of oxidation occur in the ascorbic acid solution as it have a direct contact with oxygen in the atmosphere. In order to keep constancy‚ I had to reduce the amount of ascorbic acid by ratio to 0.2g with 10ml of water. By measuring element

The first part of our perception involves the things that grab our attention or that keep our attention. There are intensities to events in life that get our attention right away‚ for example. When something effects our senses of sight‚ sound‚ color or taste in a big way‚ we pay attention or become attracted to getting more‚ getting involved‚ getting less or getting away. There are repetitive events and statements that get past our biases and filters to eventually grab our attention in subtle ways
