Determination is a positive emotion that involves persevering towards a difficult goal in spite of obstacles.[1][2] Determination occurs prior to goal attainment and serves to motivate behavior that will help achieve one’s goal. Empirical research suggests that people consider determination to be an emotion; in other words‚ determination is not just a cognitive state‚ but rather an affective state.[3] In the psychology literature‚ researchers have studied determination under other terms‚ including

In James Scott’s novel Weapons of the Weak: Everyday Forms of Peasant Resistance he plainly describes what can only be viewed as the worsening of the lives of the village poor in Sedaka‚ Malaysia. He attributes the increase in economic inequality to Malaysia’s green revolution. Consequently‚ Scott analyzes the impact of these changes on the poor‚ sighting several causes. The green revolution began in the 1970’s in Malaysia. It was brought about by an advance in technology‚ a new form of high

ACIDS AND BASES The reason that acid-base reactions are so important is that many of the things you come into contact with on a daily basis are either acids or bases. Most fruits are acids‚ as are carbonated beverages‚ tea‚ and battery acid. Common household bases include baking soda‚ ammonia‚ soap‚ and antacids. What are acids and bases? There are not one but three common definitions used to describe acids and bases: 1. Arrhenius acids and bases 2. Brønsted-Lowry acids and bases 3. Lewis acids

To test the effect of adding an acid or base to a buffer solution. SAFETY CONCERNS: Always wear safety goggles. Wash with soap and water if skin contacts acids or bases. ACIDS: An Acid is a substance that when dissolved in water will produce hydrogen ions‚ H+‚ in the solution. An acid that does not contain carbon is called an inorganic

The spring constant Manuel Cereijido Fernández – UO237242 PL-4 -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------1. Objectives The main objective of this experiment was to determine the spring constant using the dynamic method. 2. Theoretical fundamentals On the one hand‚ when a spring oscillates‚ the movement which describes can be classify as a simple harmonic motion. Therefore‚ its position‚ velocity and acceleration equations respect the time will

BRONSTED-LOWRY ACIDS AND BASES 1. The Bronsted-Lowry definition There are many definitions of acids and bases in existence‚ but the most useful one is the Bronsted-Lowry definition: An acid is a substance which can behave as a proton (re presented as a hydrogen ion‚ H+) donor. Any substance which contains hydrogen bonded to a more electronegative element can thus behave as an acid: HCl == H+ + Cl- H2SO4 == H+ + HSO4- A base is a substance which can behave as a proton acceptor. Any

Hamlet; in my opinion is Ophelia strong or weak? Ophelia is weak… In my opinion I believe that Ophelia is weak in many aspects of her Character in Hamlet. Firstly‚ I think she shows great weakness in the way she allows the men in her life to manipulate her throughout the play. Clearly‚ the main factor of manipulation is through her love and emotions towards Hamlet‚ which is continually used almost against her and to the men’s advantage. Her father and Claudius order Ophelia to meet

Determination In “The Glass Castle” we see many different possibilities pertaining to Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs. We see the father‚ Rex and one of the daughters‚ Maureen‚ who fall victim to Maslow. Then there’s Jeanette and the mother‚ Rose Mary who have both seemed to achieve self-actualization regardless of their hardships. Traditionally‚ Maslow’s Hierarchy is thought to be achieved by working up from the bottom of the pyramid to get to the top. However‚ in “The Glass Castle” this is not particularly

– The Constant Gardener In the article “The Constant Gardener: What the Movie Missed” by Sonia Shah‚ she talks about the issues and concerns of new drugs being tested on people in developing countries such as Latin America‚ Eastern Europe‚ Asia and Africa. In Shah’s essay she brings up two convincing arguments against these experiments. One argument Shah speaks on is that in the movie The Constant Gardener the seriousness of the possible danger in these experiments is not well depicted. She argues
