The electrical resistivity of a metal arises from the interactions of the conduction electrons with impurities‚ defects and the vibrating ions of the lattice. As the temperature is lowered‚ the amplitudes of the lattice vibrations diminish‚ so one would expect the resistivity also to decrease gradually toward a small‚ but finite‚ value determined by the impurities and defects. This behavior is manifested by many materials. In 1911 H. Kamerlingh Onnes discovered that as the temperature of mercury

Why is natural law an inappropriate approach to ethics in the 21st century? Natural law‚ its critics claim‚ produces no certain knowledge. It is more often merely the rhetorical projection of whatever a person firmly believes but finds them self unable to prove. Appeals to natural law never solve moral conflict.

A natural resource can be defined as an item that after necessary processing or manufacture is useful and hence meets the needs of the society. Natural resources can be divided into two categories. Renewable and non-renewable. Renewable resources are those which after use will be replenished‚ if used appropriately. Non-renewable resources are those which come in finite stocks‚ therefore will eventually run out. Generally‚ natural resources are spread unevenly over the globe. That is in some areas
