Institution: Course: Instructor: Date of Submission: Absolute zero Abstract The purpose of this laboratory was to apply the ideal gas law and temperature and pressure measurements to extrapolate absolute zero value on a Celsius scale. This was done by recording Pressure and temperature measurement values for different n values. In addition, linear fit graphs of pressure versus temperature were plotted for the different n values. The absolute temperature value was then determined from the equation
Imagine you live in a world where there are no plants, forest, animals, or oceans all there is in where these things us to be is concrete, landfills of garbage, and buildings. This is what will transpire if we do not protect or wildlife, wildlife conservation is a very important situation as it helps keeps plants and animals off the endangered list. According to the World Wild Life organization there are twenty-six endangered animals and twenty-one critically endangered animals this is very overwhelming
Societies in America today do not imply the Golden rule to their everyday lives. This rule explains the karma effect that whatever you do comes back around to either break or make you. This applies to every aspect of life. The main aspects are showing compassion, building relationships due to loyalty, and overall respecting others. These crucial characteristics allow for a better way of life and to overall become better human beings socially while being religiously by obeying one out of the ten commandments
t - Biological conservation essay - Ursidae Currently there are 8 species of bear, six of these eight species are, at the moment, listed as vulnerable with the Giant Panda only very recently being removed from the endangered animals list. Bears can be found in various places all over the world, some being found in specific countries or areas while others are more widespread. This range in homes means different habitats and behaviours but also different threats to their populations, though they
Background Research: Isopods are group of small, cold-blooded, crustaceans also known as pillbugs and sowbugs (pillbugs are commonly known as “roly polies”). Pillbugs are almost exactly like sowbugs, but differ because they can curl up into balls and are thicker than sowbugs (PNNL). Isopods are related to a few water crustaceans including crabs, crayfish, and shrimp, so water is necessary for them to survive. For that reason, they live in damp or wet areas such as forests and meadows. Isopods have
Copper Cycle Lab Report Ameerah Alajmi Abstract: A specific amount of Copper will undergo several chemical reactions and then recovered as a solid copper. A and percent recovery will be calculated and sources of loss or gain will be determined. The percent recovery for this experiment was 20.46%. Introduction: The purpose of this experiment is to demonstrate the different types of chemical reactions, those including Copper. There are different types of chemical reactions. A double displacement reaction

Using three proofs, one on “Gods simplicity,” the second on “the infinity of Gods perfection” and the last based on “the unity of the world.” The following will be Dissecting and providing explanations along with criticism. As well, what it is meant by “God is one”. The claim of God being one means that God is independent of any other
In this essay, I will show that Immanuel Kant is wrong to think that the only good without limitation is the good will. My first step in defending this thesis will be to review Kant’s argument about how the good will is intrinsically good. I will then try to undermine his view by showing it supports implausible claims. For example, the premise of Kant’s claim is that good will is unconditioned. However, the good will may depend on outside factors to bring about good in a person. Thus, I argue if
John Locke: He is the father of British empiricism. He defines morality as based on the command of God. According to Locke, the basic principles of morality are decreed by God and are self-evident. From these self-evident principles, detailed rules of conduct can be deduced with certainty as in mathematics. In other words, Locke maintains that good actions tend to cause pleasure while bad action tends to cause pain. For Locke, morality is the law of God, and God supports his laws with sanctions.
Kant’s ethical theory Kant’s ethical theory relies on the principles that the only one thing, which is good without qualification, is a good will. In Kant’s term, a good will is a will, where all taken decisions are fully determined by the Moral Law or moral demands. He states that all talents of the mind, which can include intelligence, wit, judgment, courage and others can be definitely named as good traits, however, at the same time these qualities can also become extremely bad on the condition
Baruch Spinoza’s geometric structured view of the universe, and everything in general, is beautifully broken down for present and future thinkers to ponder in his work, Ethics. Although complex at times, his method of demonstrating each discovery of proven proposition aids readers to conceptual God-Nature. At the base of these propositions are the definitions and axioms (truths) Spinoza accounts as certain truths and are critical to understanding God-Nature (substance). I will here provide an account
In Plato’s dialogue Republic, Book X, the main topic discussed is what type of republic would produce the best people and the best way of life. By having this written in dialogue format, readers are given the ability to think, with the speakers, about these ideas being put forth. The main idea Socrates discusses and believes in is that art should be banned from the republic because it’s imagery is imitated, unreal, and by the end of the dialogue he calls it out to be the works of wizards. To understand
Ah yes, the age of fire. Perhaps you’ve heard of it. Gwyn, god of the light, slayer of Dragons, and the sworn protector of the First Flame. “Make haste… Make haste, my warrior of fire, ashen one, Rogue. I order you to slay the God of light, as he has gone Hollow.”. The God of war, Faraam, has bestowed upon me the armor of a knight who has traversed the abyss, a katana imbued with what is believed to be the abyss itself, and a catalyst. The Lord of cinder, Gwyn, has gone Hollow and is not in the right
Oppression is often portrayed in a negative light. Those who fight oppression are frequently regarded as heroes. The opposite is true for Alan Moore and David Lloyd’s book, V for Vendetta. V for Vendetta totes a mysterious character who goes by the alias of V. V is a villain who will stop at nothing to achieve his end goal: freeing England from the Norsefire regime. Many would see V as a hero due to the fact that he is trying to free a country and its civilians from an oppressive government. Majority
built by a man, a king, an absolute monarch, King Louis XIV. Louis XIV was born heir and successor to Louis XIII and took throne after his father’s untimely death. As Louis XIV took control, his 72-year long reign of absolute monarchy began and ended only when his eyes shut (longest rule amongst any monarchs at his time), making him “history’s best example of an absolute monarch” (Ramírez, “Absolute Monarchy and France”). He was also known as the “Sun God” (Ramírez, “Absolute Monarchy and France”) because
Macbeth, a tragedy written by Shakespeare around 1606, dramatises the consequences that unchecked political ambition can yield. To truly understand Macbeth, however, it is important to know the time period and political context in which it was written. The main theme, excessive ambition leads to great consequences, is interestingly relevant considering how, why, and when Shakespeare wrote the play. Shakespeare drastically altered certain historical events in his writing. Shakespeare likely made these

Before the revolution, the absolute monarch was the political system that France followed. This meant that France was ruled by one person, the king. Everyone was under the King and also a member of an estate. The composition of the society was a major reason for the social tensions before the French revolution. France, as a nation was divided into three estates. The first estate included the clergy, the second including the nobility, and the third included of the commoners which were 96-98% of the
Only after the election of Hugh Capet and beginning of Capetian dynasty (987-1328) did France unite as a realm with a distinct territory. Hugh Capet recognized Paris as his power center, practically establishing the capitol, but the rest of the kingdom was controlled by powerful local lords. Under the Capetian dynasty, many of the basic administrative institutions of the French monarchy began to develop, while being the biggest contributor to the crusades, kings slowly solidified their power and
