Imperialism By the late 19th and early 20th century‚ Europe was expanding its borders. In an attempt to grow its economy and culture‚ Europe’s superpowers began to search for new soil. Africa was an easy target; it wasn’t politically secure and it wasn’t modernized. In addition‚ it had reliable soil which would enable Europe to produce cash crops. European nations began to pour into Africa‚ called the Scramble for Africa. Soon‚ Europe took control of Africa‚ taking raw materials and destroyed African

Intermolecular forces exist between independent particles‚ such as atoms‚ ions‚ or molecules. They can be forces of either attraction or repulsion. The amount of charge‚ how it is distributed‚ and the length of time that a charge distribution exists can affect the strength of intermolecular forces. And despite having variable force strengths‚ all intermolecular forces are considered weak compared to chemical bonds‚ or intramolecular forces. Chemical bonds are not only stronger; they are also more

political economy‚ branch of social science that studies the relationships between individuals and society and between markets and the state‚ using a diverse set of tools and methods drawn largely from economics‚ political science‚ and sociology. The term political economy is derived from the Greek polis‚ meaning “city” or “state‚” and oikonomos‚ meaning “one who manages a household or estate.” Political economy thus can be understood as the study of how a country—the public’s household—is managed

Forces Have you ever wondered how forces link to our life? Everything we’ve learned in science has got me thinking about it. Forces are an essential part of our daily lives. Forces act on all objects. And we need force for everything we do‚ whether it’s a push‚ pull or twist. Force gives an object the energy to move‚ stop moving or change direction. Newton’s first law states that an objects velocity cannot change unless it is acted upon by a force. Here are examples of force in everyday life.

Definition of Force A force is a push or pull upon an object resulting from the object’s interaction with another object. Whenever there is an interaction between two objects‚ there is a force upon each of the objects. When the interaction ceases‚ the two objects no longer experience the force. Forces onlyexist as a result of an interaction. Velocity‚ Acceleration‚ Momentum‚ and Impulse Velocity‚ in physics‚ is a vector quantity (it has both magnitude and direction)‚ and is the time rate of

TITLE : Shear Force Variation with an Increasing Point Load. INTRODUCTION: SHEAR FORCE The shearing force (SF) at any section of a beam represents the tendency for the portion of the beam on one side of the section to slide or shear laterally relative to the other portion. The diagram shows a beam carrying loads . It is simply supported at two points where the reactions are Assume that the beam is divided into two parts by a section XX The resultant of the loads and reaction acting on

officers have the authority to use force to ensure that laws are upheld and public safety and security maintained. The granting of that authority carries with it an expectation that the individual police officers and their law enforcement organizations will be openly and publicly accountable for any use of force. Police use of force is officially sanctioned‚ but questions remain. What is a reasonable use of force? Why and under what circumstances is one type of force chosen over another? What standards

Intermolecular Forces Intermolecular forces are forces of attraction or repulsion which act between neighboring particles (atoms‚ molecules or ions). They are weak compared to the intramolecular forces‚ the forces which keep a molecule together. There are a few types of attractive intermolecular forces such as: Dipole-Dipole Forces Dipole–dipole interactions are electrostatic interactions of permanent dipoles in molecules. These interactions tend to align the molecules to increase the attraction

Assess the view that religion is a conservative force within society A conservative force is the idea that that an institution or organization keeps thing the way it is. Durkheim is a functionalist argues that the function of religious ritual is to maintain social solidarity by affirming the moral superiority of society over its individual members. Durkheim believed that social life could only exist if values were shared and society integrated into a coherent whole. Religion is an important aspect
