The Seagram Building is prime example of the international style of design in the 20th century. The building is a true landmark of the city having an open plaza at the base of the building with high ceilings‚ floor to ceiling tinted windows and bronze mullions. Its imperious design‚ set in a plaza with fountain‚ was imitated many times and became an icon of North American corporate design. Mies is known as the father of the steel and glass structure. Mies designed many buildings during his life however

long onto the deck of a ship. He exerts a 650.0 N force parallel to the ramp. What is the mechanical advantage of the ramp? What is the efficiency of the ramp? Your response should include all of your work and a free-body diagram. Answer: 650 N is mvoed through a distance of 5m. The result is 100*9.8 N is moved up thrugh a distance of 3m. Mechnical advanatage is 100*9.8 / 650 = 1.5. The maximum mechanical advanatage can be 5m / 3 m = 1.66 Efficiency = 1.5 / 1.66 = 0.90 = 90% (7 points)

With increasing popularity of computer games‚ and multimedia home PC users often need an unexpensive computer system upgrade. By building a custom computer one is able to combine componenets‚ and operating system to provide maximal gaming performance. Computers are often called number manipulators‚ because of their ability to run millions of mathematical operations per second (White 43). Computers use binary system of numbers‚ which allows them to operate system of microscopic switches called transistors

Pulmonary Ventilation or breathing has two phases. Inspiration or inhalation moves air into the lungs‚ and expiration or exhalation moves are out of the lungs. The lungs are enclosed within the thoracic cavity. Thus changes in the shape and size of the thoracic cavity result in changes in the air pressure within that cavity & in the lungs. This difference in air pressure causes the movement of air into and out of the lungs. Air moves from an area where pressure is high to an area where pressure is
