Period 3‚ APUSH Foreign and Domestic Policy Questions Foreign Policy Questions 1. The United States adopted a broad foreign policy strategy that has come to be known as containment‚ which is still somewhat utilized today. Containment was designed to “contain” the spread of communism. Containment policy was created by George Kennan‚ and it became the foundation of Truman’s foreign policy. The Truman Doctrine was the first implementation of this containment policy. In 1947 at a speech‚ Truman pointed

1)What are all of the greenhouse gases? There are four greenhouse gases that trap and absorb heat on Earth so living organisms can sustain life. Not only are they the greenhouse gases up also make up the 1% in the atmosphere. The greenhouse gases include water vapor (H2O)‚ carbon dioxide (CO2)‚ methane (CH4)‚ and nitrous oxide (N2O). H20 - this is one but it not really talked about on the website 2) Which one is completely human related? (meaning it is not found naturally in the environment)

Diagram 1 shows negative externalities of consumption E-cigarettes are a demerit good (goods that will be over-provided by the market and‚ because of this‚ they will be over consumed and that the government thinks are bad both for people who consume them and for society as a whole‚ and therefore government would like to see them consumed to a lesser degree‚ or not at all (Blink and Dorton 141)). Cigarettes are a product that adversely affects third parties. Negative externalities of consumption produced

greenhouse gases and the resulting greenhouse effect are important. If the greenhouse gases were not present in the atmosphere‚ our Earth would be an icebox. We would have climate similar to that in Mars. The average temperature on Earth would have been about -18 degrees Celsius‚ which is below the freezing point of water. If this was the Earth’s temperature‚ there would hardly be any liquid water on Earth and life as known today would not be possible. Therefore the greenhouse effect is important

Gases and Atmospheric Pressure Three types of motion and kinetic energy -particles in a substance have three type of motion and therefore three types of kinetic energy -vibrational motion -vibreational kinetic energy -all particles have this type of energy -rotational motion -rotational kinetic energy -particles in liquid and fases have some solids have this energy type -translational motion -translational kinetic energy -only particles in liquid and gas have this type of energy

terms: i) Externality ii) Public Good Externality Externalities‚ or transaction spillovers‚ arise when a third party who is not involved in the consumption of a product incur certain costs and benefits that are not compensated for by the generators of those externalities. They exist due to the price system’s (The Invisible Hand) inability to deal with products that have no market or price‚ such as clean air‚ peace‚ quiet‚ pollution and more. In a broader sense‚ externalities involve interdependence

Kinetic theory of gases Question: How does odor travel from one place to another? Kinetic theory of gases A gas is composed of atoms or molecules The gas particles are in constant random motion Kinetic energy is transferred between particles as they collide Pressure The force exerted per unit of area Formula: pressure/force area Measured by barometer A vacuum is empty space‚ with no particles or pressure. Atmospheric pressure is the collision air particles with objects Units of

BIOLOGY PRACTICAL ASSIGNMENT NAME OF INVESTIGATION: Effect of Eutrophication on Plant Growth RESEARCH QUESTION: How does the process of Eutrophication affect the growth of Duckweed? HYPOTHESIS: In this experiment‚ we are basically testing the use of different fertilizers on the growth of Duckweeds. Plants need fertilizers for their growth and to increase the yield of crops. But‚ at the same time‚ it depends on which Fertilizer being used and in how much proportion. Does it have sufficient nutrients
