Linear Thermal Expansion The term thermal expansion refers to the increase in size of an object as that object is heated. With relatively few exceptions‚ all objects expand when they are heated and contract when they are cooled. Perhaps the most important exception to this rule is water. Water contracts as it cools from its boiling point to about 39.2°F (4°C). At that point‚ it begins to expand as it cools further to its freezing point. This unusual effect explains the fact that ice is less dense

the other different social status groups would do. I believe stratification of students is caused more by the income and lifestyle characteristics of the group of people. The student’s home life‚ parental guidance‚ relationship of authority figures‚ and size of the family all have effect on the student’s effort to success at learning.

Thermal power plants are one of the main sources of electricity in both industrialized and developing countries. These plants have drawn flak on consumption of non-renewable sources of energy at a rapid rate and also since they release huge amounts of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere. The anti-greenhouse gas activists are calling for thermal power to be replaced by other cleaner sources of energy. Functioning of thermal power plant: In a thermal power plant‚ one of coal‚ oil or natural gas

A-Level Sociology Teaching Notes Social Inequality: Theories: Weber Introduction In most sociology textbooks that discuss the work of Marx and Weber you will‚ eventually‚ come across the phrase that Weber’s work on social stratification represents a‚ "Dialogue with the ghost of Marx".
