Question 1(10 marks) Comment the following statements (a) The volume coefficient of thermal expansion of water is negative for temperatures in the range 0 to 4 °C. (b) The triple point of water‚ 0.01 °C‚ and 611.73 Pa‚ is one of the primary fixed points on the Kelvin absolute temperature scale. (c) The volume coefficient for the thermal expansion of a solid is twice the linear coefficient for thermal expansion. (d) A temperature of 26.85 °C is the same as 300 K. (e) The surface temperature

Unlike the common law‚ which has a set boundary of rules and regulations‚ equity does not have a concrete structure due to its complex historical background[1]. Trust‚ governed by the laws of equity‚ is a unique creation of common law and is often dealt with challenging and versatile series of events. This problem involves complex areas from topics of formalities‚ constitution of trusts‚ and covenants to settle. In this essay‚ I will fully concentrate on whether each section of the trust is enforceable

Both law and morality strongly influence human behaviour1. Law accomplishes this through threatening punishment2 whereas morality accomplishes this by incentives‚ ‘moral’ behaviour is praised by others followed by a feeling of virtuousness and the opposite may be said for ‘immoral’ behaviour3. There is not a simple definition for law as it is too complex to define4 instead scholars attempt to describe the law5. Bentham6 and Austin7 argue that the law is the sovereign commanding

Since the birth of Physical Review Letters fifty years ago‚ condensed matter physics has seen considerable growth‚ and both the journal and the field have flourished during this period. In this essay‚ I begin with some general comments about condensed matter physics and then give some personal views on the conceptual development of the field and list some highlights. The focus is mostly on theoretical developments. DOI: 10.1103/PhysRevLett.101.250001 PACS numbers: 01.30.−y The transistor

eInsect attack is a serious agricultural problem leading to yield losses and reduced product quality. Insects can cause damage both in the field and during storage in silos. Each year‚ insects destroy about 25 percent of food crops worldwide. The larvae of Ostrinia nubilalis‚ the European corn borer‚ can destroy up to 20 percent of a maize crop. | European corn borer:A major pest in southern and central Europe.

3. Recent technological developments have allowed greater use of the electromagnetic spectrum 1. describe electromagnetic waves in terms of their speed in space and their lack of requirement of a medium for propagation In space (a vacuum) electromagnetic waves travel at the speed of light‚ a constant equal to 3.00108ms1. Unlike sound waves‚ electromagnetic waves do not vibrate particles‚ therefore they do not need a medium (substance) to propagate (move). 2. identify the electromagnetic wavebands
