Drehle moved on to The Miami Herald in 1985. During his time with the Miami Herald‚ he was awarded the Livingston Award‚ which recognizes excellence in young journalism. In 2006 Von Drehle became Editor-at-Large for‚ the renowned‚ Time Magazine. In Triangle: The Fire that Changed America‚ Von Drehle coalesces his critically acclaimed writing skills with knowledge of early 1900s New York to create a masterpiece depicting the struggles of immigrant women and a catastrophic fire that drastically changed

1-1 Chapter 1 INTRODUCTION AND BASIC CONCEPTS Thermodynamics 1-1C Classical thermodynamics is based on experimental observations whereas statistical thermodynamics is based on the average behavior of large groups of particles. 1-2C On a downhill road the potential energy of the bicyclist is being converted to kinetic energy‚ and thus the bicyclist picks up speed. There is no creation of energy‚ and thus no violation of the conservation of energy principle. 1-3C There is no truth to his claim

Samarpan Rai 30/11/012 Physics HL Investigation on Young Modulus Young’s modulus‚ also known as the tensile modulus‚ is a measure of the stiffness of an elastic material and is a quantity used to characterize materials. Young’s modulus is named after Thomas Young‚ the 19th century British scientist. It is a very important concept that categorizes metals on basis of their elasticity. In the last lab‚ we were asked to find out the Young Modulus of two wires: Copper and Steel. I worked on Copper

Pore Pressure Transducer (PPT) Calibration Procedure By Javier Ubilla Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute - The main components of the PPT are the Head which contains the Diaphragm with 4 strain gauges attached in full bridge configuration. This Diaphragm is protected with a Porous Stone. The sensor is connected to the Data Acquisition System (DAQ) through a Transition Cable and then a Thin Cable. In order to facilitate the saturation of the PPT‚ especially in tests where viscous fluid is used

First the total volume of gas that is to be stored needs to be calculated. From the mass balance it is known that 30.92 kmol of methane can be expected every hour. This correlates to 742.0 kmol/day. The ideal gas law will be used‚ with a compressibility factor‚ Z‚ to account for departure for un-idealality. An operating temperature of 50 will be assumed‚ as this is the highest feasible ambient temperature that can be expected. Also assume that the pump or compressor used to transport the methane

Solutions (Week-01) Chapter-01 1-12 A plastic tank is filled with water. The weight of the combined system is to be determined. Assumptions The density of water is constant throughout. Properties The density of water is given to be = 1000 kg/m3. Analysis The mass of the water in the tank and the total mass are mw =V =(1000 kg/m3)(0.2 m3) = 200 kg mtotal = mw + mtank = 200 + 3 = 203 kg Thus‚ 1-14 The variation of gravitational acceleration above the sea level is given as
