The computer was born not for entertainment or email but out of a need to solve a serious number-crunching crisis. By 1880 the U.S. population had grown so large that it took more than seven years to tabulate the U.S. Census results. The government sought a faster way to get the job done‚ giving rise to punch-card based computers that took up entire rooms. Today‚ we carry more computing power on our smartphones than was available in these early models. The following brief history of computing is

distinct things in a computer‚ but being closely related‚ they are spoken of almost interchangeably. BIOS (basic Input Output System) is a program containing instructions for the start up of a computer‚ whereas CMOS (complimentary metal oxide semiconductor) is where all this BIOS information such as date‚ time‚ and system configuration details that are needed to start the computer are stored. Yes‚ they are closely related and perform very important functions at the startup of a computer but they cannot

2011‚ one US dollar was equivalent to 0.7749 Euros. A linear equation of a function‚ E‚ which converts US dollars (D) to Euros (E) would be E = 0.7749D You would just put the number of dollars in for "D" and multiply by 0.7749 and this will give you the number of Euros you would get for your US dollars. This is a "real world application" of a linear function. Cell Phones Just about everyone has a cell phone‚ and most rate plans are a linear function of some kind. Let’s take a look at a basic example

Linear Thermal Expansion The term thermal expansion refers to the increase in size of an object as that object is heated. With relatively few exceptions‚ all objects expand when they are heated and contract when they are cooled. Perhaps the most important exception to this rule is water. Water contracts as it cools from its boiling point to about 39.2°F (4°C). At that point‚ it begins to expand as it cools further to its freezing point. This unusual effect explains the fact that ice is less dense

Newton’s Laws‚ linear momentum‚ and kinetic energy. Principles In this experiment you will study a collision where a moving object strikes and sticks to an initially motionless object. When the colliding objects stick together the collision is said to be completely inelastic. The net momentum of the system should not change‚ but the net kinetic energy of the system will decrease. The amount of kinetic energy left after the collision can be predicted using conservation of momentum. Linear momentum

dimensions of disability (Reeve‚ 2002). Also the concept of disability is not linear (Reeve‚ 2002). People can be disabled when completing one task yet not disabled when completing another (). For example a deaf student may be disabled when asked to listen to a cd and write down how it makes them feel but not if they are required to look at a picture and write down how that makes them feel. So treating disability as a linear dichotomy is to
