killed for the maintenance of a standing army results in an inconsistency in the concept of a person. The inconsistency in turn undermines the possibility for the only form of government that is consistent with possibility of perpetual peace‚ a republican government.” - J. Gabriel The Article by J. Gabriel‚ aims to present Rousseau and Kant’s argument that having to pay for standing armies deprives humans of their freedom. The cause for the need of standing armies is that even with the presence

to point through a medium is called a ___. a. period b. periodic wave c. wavelength d. pulse Answer: D A wave is a continuous and repeating disturbance of a medium and a pulse is a single disturbance. 2. If the particles of the medium are vibrating to and fro in the same direction of energy transport‚ then the wave is a ____ wave. a. longitudinal b. sound c. standing d. transverse Answer: A In longitudinal waves‚ particles of the medium vibrate to and from in a direction parallel

sound waves Sound is a series of compression waves that moves through air or other materials. These sound waves are created by the vibration of an object‚ like a radio loudspeaker. The waves are detected when they cause a detector to vibrate. Your eardrum vibrates from sound waves to allow you to sense them. Sound has the standard characteristics of any waveform. Sound is a waveform that travels through matter. Although it is commonly in air‚ sound will rapidly travel

Beginning in the summer of 1869 Gustave Courbet produced a series of paintings depicting stormy seas during his stay at Etretat on the Normandy coast. The Wave (La Vague c.1872) exhibited in the National Gallery of Victoria is one such painting that features the central motif of a cresting wave. While many viewed the work as a simple realist seascape‚ the political implication of the work suggested by some of Courbet’s contemporaries is hardly discernable to the modern viewer. It can only be understood

Practise essay on Change In the novel The Wave by Morton Rhue we see change occur in this novel when a classroom experiment designed to show students how to make people change and conform their behaviour to fit certain rules. The classroom experiment that the teacher created was the catalyst that caused throughout the schools behaviour and the students behaviour and attitude. Robert Billings is a student who rarely pays attention in class and is always getting low marks and sleeping in Ben Ross’s

EXPERIMENT 5 TRANSVERSE STANDING WAVES A string attached to a turning fork is set vibrating at the same frequency as the tuning fork. The length and tension in the string are adjusted until standing waves are observed on the string. By knowing the tension in the string and the wavelength of the standing waves‚ the frequency of oscillation of the string and thus‚ the tuning fork is found. This value is then compared to a strobelight determination of the frequency. THEORY
