Title: Laboratory Techniques and Measurements Purpose: To properly use‚ understand‚ and correctly convert the scientific measurements such as: finding density‚ converting centimeters to millimeters‚ 3 different units of temperature‚ etc… Procedure: I used a metric ruler to measure the length of the objects‚ a thermometer to determine the degrees of the water‚ and a scale to determine the mass of the designated objects. I used the proper equipment to measure out or hold the item. After I gathered

EARTHQUAKE ENGINEERING IN AUSTRALIA BEFORE MECKERING AND AFTER NEWCASTLE by Charles Bubb BE‚ DIC (Eng. Seis.)‚ FIEAust‚ CPEng SUMMARY Earthquake Engineering in Australia‚ as elsewhere‚ has been formulated in the aftermath of damaging earthquakes. The first Australian Code AS2121-1979 was written and published after the 1968 Meckering WA earthquake. The second AS1170.4 1993 was published after the 1989 Newcastle NSW earthquake. Good quality Building Codes are a necessary basis for sound earthquake

EARTHQUAKE An earthquake (also known as a tremor‚ temblor or seismic activity) is the result of a sudden release of energy in the earth’s crust that creates SEISMIC WAVES. Earthquakes are measured with a seismometer; a device which also records is known as a seismograph. SEISMIC DEFORMATION When an earthquake fault ruptures‚ it causes two types of deformation: static; and dynamic. Static deformation is the permanent displacement of the ground due to the event. The earthquake cycle progresses

INTRODUCTION The objective of education is to use the skill and knowledge learnt to function effectively in the society. Therefore‚ learning which cannot be used outside the school is futile. In recent times‚ the school curriculum is fashioned in line with problems of the society. Children attend school so that on graduation‚ they will employ the skills acquired to better the lots of the society. Any educational system‚ whose products cannot tackle the problems of its society‚ could be termed a

Section 2: Studying Earthquakes Recording Earthquakes Seismology- The study of earthquakes and seismic waves Seismograph- An instrument that records vibrations in the ground Consists of three different devices that sense and record motion Vertical Motion of the ground Horizontal Motion- East and West Horizontal Motion- North and South Records motion by tracing wave shaped lines on paper Or translates it into electronic signals. Seismogram- The tracing of earthquake motion by a seismograph

Case Study for Simmons Laboratories This case is about three indivuals with different leadship styles. Brandon Newbridge is a synthesizer‚ which means‚ he is a eclectic‚ thinker‚ pragmatist‚ and “whatever works” kind of leader. Dr. William Goh’s is like a partner‚ which means he is mentor who passes his wisdom down to other. He is conscientious ‚ collaborative‚ ego-free‚ and is able to work side by side with his peers. Lester Zapf is an achiever‚ which means “ebullient leader” who is

Hurricanes and earthquakes are two of the most dangerous natural disasters in the United States. They can be very disastrous and deadly. In the United States‚ there have been 73 hurricanes since 1954. Earthquakes are harder to detect because they have to have at least a magnitude of 5 ("Earthquakes per year‚" 2009). The amount of earthquakes detected in the United States was 1656 in the past 10 years ("Earthquakes per year‚" 2009). The World Meteorological Organization is the organization that can
