LIGHTNING Lightning is a massive electrostatic discharge caused by unbalanced electric charges in the atmosphere‚ and resulting in a strike‚ from a cloud to itself‚ a cloud to a cloud or a cloud to ground‚ and accompanied by the loud sound of thunder. A typical cloud to ground lightning strike jumps a 5 km (3 mi) gap through the air.[1] A typical thunderstorm has three or more strikes per minute at its peak.[2] Lightning is usually produced by cumulonimbus clouds based 5–6 km (3-4 mi) above the

Activity 1.1.2 Simple Machines Practice Problems Answer Key Procedure Answer the following questions regarding simple machine systems. Each question requires proper illustration and annotation‚ including labeling of forces‚ distances‚ direction‚ and unknown values. Illustrations should consist of basic simple machine functional sketches rather than realistic pictorials. Be sure to document all solution steps and proper units. All problem calculations should assume ideal conditions and no friction

Traumatic Brain Injury or Head Injury A head injury occurs as a result of trauma to the scalp‚ skull or brain. Head injuries are classified as closed‚ in which there is no cut or laceration to the skin‚ or penetrating‚ in which the skin and/or bone of the skull is broken. Traumatic brain injuries range from mild (called mild traumatic brain injury) to severe. The symptoms of a head injury may occur immediately following trauma‚ or they may develop slowly over several hours or days. Specific types
