For thousands of years‚ religions the world over have extolled the benefits of meditation and quiet contemplation. In Islam and Catholicism‚ Judaism and Buddhism‚ Hinduism and Taoism‚ and in religious practice from the Americas to Africa to Asia‚ the value of sitting quietly‚ using various techniques to cultivate stillness or focused attention of the mind‚ has been well recognized. The goals of religious meditation extend far beyond its potential physical health benefits and also extend beyond the

1 The Heat Capacity Ratio of Gases Purpose The purpose of this experiment is to calculate the heat capacity ratio of gases‚ Helium‚ Nitrogen and Carbon Dioxide‚ and compare with their theoretical values. Introduction Thermodynamics is the study of heat as it relates to energy and work. There are various properties which all relate to each other when determining the characteristic of a certain substance. One of such properties is heat capacity‚ which is the amount of heat energy required

Abstract Precipitation hardening‚ or age hardening‚ provides one of the most widely used mechanisms for the strengthening of metal alloys. It influences some properties of the alloys such as strength‚ hardness and ductility. The purpose of this experiment was to test the effect of temperature and aging time on strength and hardness of 6060 aluminium alloy samples that have roughly similar compositions by subjecting them to different temperatures for different periods of time. The experiment showed

off lights and other electrical appliances to conserve energy‚ but not everyone understands that the reason for the emphasis on cutting back on the use of energy is due to the inevitable depletion of our environment’s nonrenewable resources. Of course‚ electric power is not the only factor that has lead to our supply of nonrenewable resources declining in recent decades. The overdependence on natural gas and oil to fuel our cars and to heat our homes has also been a huge contributing factor. Although

Renewable Energy in Cambodia I. Introduction Cambodia is a country in Southeastern Asia‚ bordering the Gulf of Thailand‚ between Thailand‚ Vietnam‚ and Laos. Cambodia is located surrounded by mountainous and highland areas in the periphery and flat like a stove in the central area. Cambodia is the country that full of the natural resources. The natural resources are classified in two categories are renewable resources and non-renewable resources‚ and natural resources can be converted

Renewable energy is energy that comes from resources which are continually replenished such as sunlight‚ wind‚ rain‚ tides‚ waves and geothermal heat. About 16% of global final energy consumption comes from renewable resources‚ with 10%[discuss] of all energy from traditional biomass‚ mainly used for heating‚ and 3.4% from hydroelectricity. New renewables (small hydro‚ modern biomass‚ wind‚ solar‚ geothermal‚ and biofuels) accounted for another 3% and are growing very rapidly.[2] The share of renewables
