...waveI n physics, a wave is a disturbance or oscillation that travels through spacetime, accompanied by a transfer of energy. Wave motiontransfers energy from one point to another, often with no permanent displacement of the particles of the medium—that is, with little or no associated mass transport. They consist, instead, of oscillations or vibrations around almost fixed locations. Waves are described by a wave equation which sets out how the disturbance proceeds over time. The mathematical form of this equation varies depending on the type of wave. There are two main types of waves. Mechanical waves propagate through a medium, and the substance of this medium is deformed. The deformation reverses itself owing to restoring forces resulting from its deformation. For example, sound waves propagate via air molecules colliding with their neighbors. When air molecules collide, they also bounce away from each other (a restoring force). This keeps the molecules from continuing to travel in the direction of the wave. The second main type of wave, electromagnetic waves, do not require a medium. Instead, they consist of periodic oscillations in electrical and magnetic fields generated by charged particles, and can therefore travel through a vacuum. These types of waves vary in wavelength, and include radio waves, microwaves, infrared radiation, visible light, ultraviolet radiation, X-rays, and gamma rays. Further, the behavior of particles in quantum mechanics is described by waves...

...INTRODUCTION In a world of turmoil and uncertainty, it is more important than ever to make the family a platform for expression, and love. Family is one of the most important social groups we belong to as we grow up and become part of society. It is the place where we learn most of our values and find a belonging. Without our families we would not be the same people we grow up to become. There is no such thing as the perfect family. Every family is unique with its own combination of strengths and weaknesses. Sometimes families get overwhelmed by what seems like an endless list of challenges when it comes to juggling work, school and individual family members' needs. Over the past 20 years single-parent families have become even more common than the so-called "nuclear family" consisting of a mother, father and children. Today we see all sorts of single parent families: headed by mothers, headed by fathers, headed by grandparents raising their grandchildren. Life in a single parent household - though common - can be quite demanding and stressful for the adult and the children. The family is the child’s first place of contact with the world. The child as a result, receives initial education and socialization from parents and other significant persons in the family. Agulana (2000) pointed out that the family lays the moral, psychological, and spiritual foundation in the overall development of the child. Structurally, family/homes is either broken or intact. According to...

...CASE STUDY Double-booked The convention bureau in a large and popular convention destination has jurisdiction over the convention center. A seasoned convention sales manager, who has worked for the bureau for 7 years and produces more sales than any other sales manager, has rebooked a 2,000-persons group for a day exposition in the convention center. The exposition is to take place 2 years from the booking date. The client has a 15-year history of holding conventions, meeting and expositions in this convention centers and has always use the bureau to contract all space services for them. In fact, the sales manager handling the account has worked with the client for 7 of the 15 years. The bureau considers this client a “preferred customers.” The conventions group meeting planner also appears in a magazine ad giving a testimony of praise for the convention bureau, this particular sales manager, and the city as a destination for conventions. Shortly after the meeting planner rebooks this convention with the bureau, the bureau changes sales administration personnel, not once, but three times. This creates a challenge for the sales manager in terms of producing contracts, client files, and event profiles, and in the recording and distribution of information. The preferred customer who rebooked has a contract purchase orders for vendor services, a move in and setup agenda, and an event profile, all supplied by sales manager. The sales manager has copies of these documents as well...

...CHAPTER 2 Geothermal Energy Geothermal energy is a form of renewable energy derived from heat deep in earth’s crust. This heat is brought to the near surface by thermal conduction by intrusion into the earth’s crust of molten magma originating from great depth. As groundwater is heated, geothermal energy is produced in the form of hot water and steam. The heated groundwater can be used for direct heating of homes and greenhouses, for vegetable drying, and for a number of other uses. These are known as direct uses of geothermal energy. Geothermal energy is also used for electricity production. Geothermal power generation is used today throughout the world where good geothermal resources exist, including many locations in the western United States. The REPP geothermal issue brief on this page provides a general background on the fundamentals of geothermal power including discussions of the technical, economic, and policy dimensions of geothermal power worldwide. Economic data and current U.S. geothermal policy help illustrate the concepts of the issue brief. Extensive references to reports and internet links to be the latest developments in geothermal power’s role in clean energy generation are included. “Ecologists also agree that geothermal energy could be used at little or no cost to the environment. Unlike fossil or expensive fissionable fuels, it does not pollute the atmosphere with combustion products or radiation” explained Escobar in ‘Geothermal Energy supply to...

...How can knowing my learning style help me in becoming a teacher? Throughout life, we learn. These lessons may be formal as found in academic studies, on the job through additional training, or personal, in the pursuit of an interest or hobby. Regardless of what, where or when we choose to obtain knowledge, how we approach learning is unique to each and every one of us based on our individual learning style or styles. Everyone has preferences for learning. If you understand how you learn best when gaining new information, studying for exams or acquiring new skills on a job, you can save yourself hours of time and frustration. It will be easier to you to understand every lessons that will be discuss by your professors. Now, let’s define learning style. Learning style is an individual's mode of gaining knowledge. It is an individual's unique approach to learning based on strengths, weaknesses, and preferences. Each learning style has positives and negatives. There is no right or wrong style, and one person may use different styles in different situations. But, as a learner, if you learn best by being shown a skill and you can only read a book to learn the task, you will likely end up frustrated or even failing to do the task. In my own understanding, learning styles is like ‘talent’, wherein everyone can foster it. It can be very worthwhile to spend some time identifying your strengths and what you find difficult. Being aware of what you're good at and where you need to develop...

...Chapter 9: Capacity Planning and Facility Location Overview This chapter defines capacity planning and location analysis and explains the steps and factors considered when making these types of decisions. The relationship between capacity planning and location analysis is described. The use of decision support tools for capacity planning and location analysis is described. Answers to Discussion Questions in Textbook 1. Explain why capacity planning is important to a business. Having the wrong level of capacity causes negative effects. Too much capacity means that are costs are higher than they should be since we are paying for more land, equipment and a larger building than we need. Not enough capacity negatively affects the level of service provided to our customers. 2. Explain the differences between design capacity and effective capacity. Design capacity is the maximum output that can be achieved using temporary measures, such as overtime and subcontracting. Effective capacity is the maximum output that can be achieved under normal conditions, including realistic work schedules and regular staff levels. Effective capacity is usually less than design capacity. Effective capacity is what we can achieve over long periods of time, while design capacity can be reached on a short-term basis. 3. How is capacity utilization computed, and what does it tell us? Capacity utilization is the actual output divided by the capacity times 100%. It...
