Autocratic‚ Democratic‚ and Optimal Government: A Sketch W. A. Niskanen In his paper Niskanen provides valuable analysis of the effects of the voting rule‚ the progressivity of the tax structure‚ and the length of the fiscal horizon in democratic governments and interesting insights of the effect of alternative regimes on policies‚ such as war and immigration‚ that affect the number of people subject to the regime. His article follows Mancur Olson’s work called “Autocracy‚ Democracy‚ and Prosperity”

Finding the Optimal pH of the Enzyme Peroxidase with the Aid of a Spectrophotometer ABSTRACT The peroxidase enzyme was partially purified‚ and the enzyme activity was calculated with the use of a spectrophotometer‚ demonstrating the effect of pH on peroxidase activity. The objective of this exercise was to determine the ideal pH for peroxidase activity. The data concluded that the optimum pH for peroxidase activity is 5‚ and the “standardized” enzyme volume is 2.8mL

A businesses success is determined by many factors‚ such as profits gained‚ customer satisfaction‚ employee satisfaction‚ and owner satisfaction. These successes are usually the output result of effective co-operation in the workplace. However‚ there is a certain barrier that hinders the process of good co-operation‚ they are known as “resistance to change.” There are two types of resistance in organizations‚ these are known as functional resistance and dysfunctional resistance. Functional resistance

Figure 12.4: e – log sv’ plot 5. Recompression Index. Determine it from the plot of voids ratio (e) vs log σ plot as (Figure 12.4 or 12.5) 12.11 6. Coefficient of compressibility. It is calculated as follows av = 0.435 Cc/Avg. pressure for the increment 12.12 where Cc = compression index av = Coefficient of compressibility

Research how a basic roller coaster works. What determines how high your loops or hills can be? What determines how many features you can have in one roller coaster? Something that determines how high you’re loops and hills go is how much kinetic energy the coaster has before going into those loops and hills. If a coaster does not have enough kinetic energy to go up and around a loop or up a hill‚ then it will get stuck. Also‚ if the coaster carts don’t have enough space between them‚ they could

will become positively charged. Electric charges can be characterized by repulsion between two positive charges or two negative charges‚ and can also be attraction between a positive charge and a negative charge. In this experiment‚ we were able to determine the presence of electrostatic charges with the use of an electroscope. It is performed by using three different kinds of rod (plastic‚ glass‚ and PVC)‚ each rubbed with silk cloth‚ flannel cloth‚ and fur cloth. The observations we have done brought

WSJ-Airbus and Boeing Duke It Out to Win Lucrative Iberia Deal-2003 Key take away: Threaten to lease planes from Singapore Airline to bring prices down by Boeing and Airbus. No counter offers were entertained. Also the key was getting two bidders: Boeing as a stalking horse into the situation. Summary: April 2002-Iberia starts to shop for new jetliners. Boeing and Airbus send a model areoplane each as a calling card. The jetliner market is projected to have sales of more than $1 trillion

What determines the perceived brightness of objects? Luminance is a physical and objective measure of the intensity of light. The sensation elicited by different luminances is called brightness. However brightness is a subjective measure as it is the perceived amount of light emanating from an object. It may seem logical to expect that luminance and brightness are directly proportional and that two objects that reflect the same amount of physical light into the eye will look the same brightness

The reaction order‚ based on the rate law‚ was first order with respect to crystal violet and second order with respect to OH-. The rate law was as follows: Rate law = k [CV]1[OH-]1 where k equaled 2.61. In order to determine the reaction order with respect to crystal violet‚ the graph that described the relationship between ln[CV] and time (seconds) was Figure 2. Not only did Figure 2 generate a more linear relationship‚ but it had the highest R2 value of 0.992 than ([CV] versus time) and ([1/CV]
