What is the biggest animal ever to exist on Earth? By considerable measure‚ the largest known animal on Earth is the blue whale. Mature bluewhales can measure anywhere from 75 feet (23 m) to 100 feet (30.5 m) from head to tail‚ and can weigh as much as 150 tons (136 metric tons). That’s as long as an 8- to 10-story building and as heavy as about 112 adult male giraffes! These days‚ most adult blue whales are only 75 to 80 feet long; whalers hunted down most of the super giants. Female blue whales

privatization of their prison systems‚ outsourcing the management to private enterprises. Like most privatization issues‚ this topic has many supporters from the liberal economic philosophy‚ as well as many detractors that argue against profit seeking enterprises. The discussion promotes themes such as the ethical dilemma of the private sector “administering punishment”‚ selecting the correct metrics used to evaluate the performance of private sector versus public sector‚ disputes of what are “just and fair”

Experiment 7: Velocity of Sound Laboratory Report Hazel Guerrero‚ Kyle Iddoba‚ Matthew Jocson‚ Thea Lagman Department of Biological Sciences College of Science‚ University of Santo Tomas Espanya‚ Manila Philippines Abstract Verification of the relationship between frequency of sound and its wavelength and the determination of the velocity and the speed of sound in different mediums was the main focus of this experiment. The speed of sound and its velocity was determined using the resonance

different ways of how sound particles react in many different situations. Some are able to have high chances of interaction such as reverberation and echoes‚ while other venues forced the sound to distribute or even be absorbed. Many areas the class had been taken through also had large capabilities of reflecting sound completely. The class was taken through two studio rooms; Studio A and Studio B. Also‚ the class had the opportunity to witness the mechanics of sound as it traveled
