piece of coursework‚ I am going to investigate what affects the resistance of a piece of wire. Wire is made up of atoms. Electric current is a flow of electrons‚ and it is these electrons that collide with the nucleus of the atoms. Every time this happens‚ it causes resistance. The build up of friction is what produces the heat. There are many variables that could affect the resistance of the piece of wire: Length Potential difference Tension Temperature Diameter Shape Material

Gang Resistance Education and Training Gang Resistance Education and Training (G.R.E.A.T) is a national program that educates elementary and middle school children how to avoid becoming a gang member. The program is instructed by police officers and is part classroom instruction and other learning activities. “The goal of the GREAT program is to teach youth how to set goals for themselves‚ how to resist peer pressure‚ how to resolve conflicts‚ and how gangs can affect the quality of their lives

What is peaceful resistance? We have seen many examples in history up even to today‚ in my case‚ even close to home. Peaceful resistance and non-violent protests is the practice of achieving goals through symbolic protests‚ civil disobedience‚ and noncooperation. The real question is with deaths of many great leaders and people throughout history with this "peaceful protest" is it a good thing? If you look at the outcomes‚ the positives outweigh the negatives. If colonial Indians hadn’t spoken-out

CASE 41 Tambrands—Overcoming Cultural Resistance Tampax‚ Tambrands’s only product‚ is the best-selling tampon in the world‚ with 44 percent of the global market. North America and Europe account for 90 percent of those sales. Company earnings dropped 12 percent to $82.8 million on revenues of $662 million. Stakes are high for Tambrands because tampons are basically all it sells‚ and in the United States‚ which currently generates 45 percent of Tanbrands’s sales‚ the company is mired in competition

case of modular functional units‚ the test clearance to ground should be tested‚ except for specimen shall consist of 2 functional units connected together as in service. When there is a configurations where only the size and/or the quantity of bus changes. In these configurations‚ a substantial difference in strength between the representative enclosure may be tested using the joining sides of adjacent units and the side smallest physical bus size to produce the greatest forming the end of the switchboard

development of increased resistance to antibiotics is a global concern. According to WHO (2015)‚ antimicrobial resistance is an increasingly serious threat to global public health that requires action across all government sectors and society. Antibiotic resistance threatens the effective prevention and treatment of an ever-increasing range of infections caused by bacteria‚ thereby resulting to loss of the ability to treat common infections. The development of antibiotic resistance is a natural phenomenon

Antibiotic resistance results from bacteria changing in ways that make those antibiotics no longer useful. Resistance is a common yet problematic issue in treating pulmonary exacerbations or infections in people with Cystic Fibrosis (CF). Not all bacteria are bad. However‚ there are some that can cause infections. As bacteria are exposed to antibiotics over time‚ resistance may develop‚ and the number of antibiotics we have to kill the bacteria decreases as well. Thus‚ it is important to learn

eukaryotic cells that make up most other forms of life evolve. Natural selection and genetic variation are simply the way evolution happens. This is why there is an antibiotic resistance. If bacteria are constantly changing then antibiotics must change too. Evolution is an amazing process that explains and justifies change. In New Mexico at the Carlsbad Caverns National Park there is a unique and enlightened discovery. There are many caves in the national park that have never been intruded upon
