both efficient and non-efficient portfolios. While calculating the returns‚ the expected return of the portfolio for CML is shown along the Y- axis. On the contrary‚ for SML‚ the return of the securities is shown along the Y-axis. The standard deviation of the portfolio is shown along the X-axis for CML‚ whereas‚ the Beta of security is shown along the X-axis for SML. Where the market portfolio and risk free assets are determined by the CML‚ all security factors are determined by the SML. Unlike

Windmills often have 3 blades that connect to a shaft. Once the blades detect the wind and begin rotating‚ they harness the power of the wind. There are two different types of windmills‚ horizontal axis and vertical axis. Vertical axis windmills were often used in the early years‚ while horizontal axis windmills are what we see today. They use angled propeller blades that create friction when if faces the wind‚ which enables it to rotate. Many windmills are used for pumping water. Wind pumps are

Guns‚ Germs‚ and Steel Book Review The book Guns‚ Germs‚ and Steel features the work of the author Jared Diamond. In his book‚ he mentions his answer to how different human societies became so diverse. Diamond doesn’t use racist answers‚ he gives an answer based on the geographical location of these diverse societies. He explains many concepts on how the location of a society can make them more diverse and more powerful than other societies. He shares many examples in history to support his thesis

But if we backtrack the refracted rays‚ the rays will then intercept at a point; this is the focal point. The concave lens will have a negative focal length since the rays that travelling parallel as it enters the front of the lens to the principal axis‚ will diverge as it exits the lens. Now let’s assume that the light rays are travelling towards the focal point of the lens. Light rays will approach the focal point from the opposing side of the concave lens‚ this is due to the negative focal length

known as DSM-IV. It can diagnose on many different axes. The DSM as five axes. The first axis records the patient’s primary diagnosis. The second axis records long standing personality problems of the patients. The third axis records medical conditions which may affect the patient psychologically. The fourth axis records significant psychosocial or environmental issues that the patient experiences. The fifth axis records the level of functioning of a patient. Although DSM is used by psychiatrists and
