Public transport is a fantastic idea. It’s cheap‚ it’s accessible‚ it’s safe‚ it’s quick and it’s better for the environment. If this is the case‚ then why is it that it’s still vastly underutilised by the general public? Well‚ the description above is wrong. All of these positive statements have actually turned public transport into a nightmare. Whilst on public transport‚ all I feel is misery and anguish at the prospect of the journey continuing and wondering why I left my car at home. The worst

The Shipping News Jack Buggit & Quoyle In the novel‚ The Shipping News by Annie Proulx‚ several characters contribute to Quoyle’s transformation. Early on Partridge gives Quoyle a friendship figure during his toughest times‚ but he abruptly leaves and their friendship is reduced to the odd phone-call or letter (he does however get Quoyle the job which was crucial). His aunt Agnis Hamm gives him the push he needs to start his new life but she comes into his life only because of his fathers

Transport Processes (SKKK 2313) ASSIGNMENT # 1 1. Consider a steam pipe of length L=20 m‚ inner radius r1=6 cm‚ outside radius r2=8 cm‚ and thermal conductivity k=20 W/m.k. The inner and outer surfaces of the pipe are maintained at average temperatures of T1=150oC and T2=60oC‚ respectively. Obtain a general relation for the temperature distribution inside the pipe under steady conditions‚ and determine the rate of heat loss from the steam through the pipe. Assume that heat transfer is one-dimensional

Cell Membrane Transport The purposes for these experiments is to be able to understand osmosis and its relationship to tonicity of solutions‚ and the transportation of molecules across cell membranes. It’s also used to understand‚ and how temperature affects diffusion. You also learn how to test for presences of starches and sugars in solutions. In the first exercise I will be testing for diffusion through an artificial membranes. This one has forty five steps to it. I will not go into
