Hypothesis – Moving in different directions will affect the average speed because there are different actions involved in running‚ jumping and grapevines. Jumping involves a longer motion which will take the longest time because a jump covers the least amount of distance per second meaning a slower average speed. Running will have the fastest speed because this takes the least

Some believed it was a person’s central characteristics and others were not sure how long it would take to become one. Some people became gentleman from right of birth‚ but that alone was not enough. Others were considered gentleman because of their occupation‚ for example clergymen‚ army officers‚ and members

Energetics Practical 2: To Determine the Enthalpy Change of a Reaction Background Calcium Carbonate‚ CaCO₃‚ decomposes with heat to form CaO and CO₂. The objective of this practical was to determine the enthalpy change for this reaction by using an indirect method based upon the foundation of Hess’ Law. Both calcium oxide and calcium carbonate react readily with 2 mol/dm3. The reaction can be demonstrated as so: CaCO₃ (s) -> CaO(s) + CO₂ (g) Results: Raw Data Calcium Carbonate Mass of CaCO₃

Books have been around since the 15th century‚ the Gutenberg Bible being one of the first. They are a way for people to express their imagination. All people should have access to books.
