On October 29, 2014, a 15-year old girl named Abigail was taken from her home in Mubi. She was taken by militants from a terrorist group called Boko Haram. Abigail was not the only person captured; Boko Haram captured the city, killed all of the men and took the children and women. While Abigail was with the captors, they preached Islam to her. They gave her a Muslim name: Zainab. The females each received clothing much like a hijab or dupatta. The militants taught the girls how to pray five

The neighbor, Christy Moore reported she saw the victim alive at 11:00 pm on Thursday, June 11, 2012. Moore claims she left the victims residence at 11:00 pm after
gaffer’s tape to secure any loose cables to the nearest light stand. Use the following steps: Provide a little slack in the cable, so that you can increase the height of the light stand freely. • Wrap the tape completely around the stand once. Leave about an inch of extra tape to create a pull-tab for easy removal. • With the power cable sitting between the light stand legs, place a piece of tape across the cable, and secure to the floor. • Pull the cable tight, and place another piece of tape across
poncho from the top bunk down by tucking it under the top mattress. This gave him his own little world that he could own and no one else could see him, where he could completely just relax. A while ago I did the same thing but with a blanket and duct tape since the top bunk had a railing on it. The reason why I did it was because I was sharing a bunkbed with my brother and the house was always very loud, completely filled with people who were always making lots of noise. The basement bedroom was the
Pompeii During the process of recording my thought process while reading this story did not help me understand what was going on, the reason or moral of the story. Although i wrote questions down as i read the story, they still were not answered. One thing i liked about the process while taking notes, was the fact that it made me wanna find the answer in the text by reading it over until i got close. I would only recommend this process of reading if reading and understanding does not come easy for
Write a three to five page APA formatted research paper: Compare Piaget’s use of concrete and formal operations and Maslow’s use of concrete and abstract thought are they similar? How are they different? Are there value judgments inherent in either view? How do these perceptions of concrete and abstract thinking match the mouse’s experience in the excerpt from The Sacred Tree? Piaget’s theory is based on assisting others until they can help themselves. Piaget goal is to help children learn so that
Morality is the distinction as either proper or improper, of a person's decisions, intentions, and actions. It is the code of conduct that governs the people's behavior of a particular culture, state or even country. Moral development is the ultimate focus on the emergence, transition, and perception of these codes of conduct from infancy through adulthood. Lawrence Kohlberg's theory of development assumes that an individual's moral evolution is a sequential process that occurs in six stages. However
measuring the temperature, pressure, mass, and volume in a gaseous state. The equation used to determine the molar mass is derived from the Ideal Gas Law equation. The objective of this experiment aims to determine the molecular mass of a
athletes taking part in the risk culture are lifestyle choices. Athletes taking part in sport specific risk behaviours for victory is becoming a social health problem. The risks taken to search for the normalized image are because of social and self pressures as well as the use of performance enhancing drugs. We see in everyday life that athletes are pushing themselves to strive for victory, and a reason for this is because they feel pressured from society. People are continuing to search for the ideal
Volume and Temperature of a Gas By: Jasmine Camacho In this experiment I used both the Boyle’s and the Charles gas laws. Boyle's law states “the volume of a given quantity of a gas varies inversely as the pressure, the temperature remaining constant”. The formula used to help complete this process is PV=constant. Charles law help explain the relationship between temperature and gas volume. And the formula for this is V/T=constant. For this experiment I used the ideal gas law; pV=nRT.
states that the number of moles are proportional to the volume of a gas at a constant temperature and pressure. V = kn where k is the constant of proportionality. Avogadro introduces the idea of particles and how they combine and react in a chemical reaction. A soft drink is an example of Avogadro’s law. When the soft drink is shaken molecules will be released into the air. Therefore the pressure in the bottle is proportional to the number of moles of molecules in the bottle. Boyle’s Law published
Determining the Molar Volume of a Gas Lab Report The purpose of the experiment is to determine the molar volume of hydrogen gas at standard pressure and temperature. Excess hydrochloric acid was placed in a eudiometer and decanted with deionized water. A piece of magnesium ribbon was trapped in a copper wire cage in the eudiometer in order to keep it in place as the more dense hydrochloric acid diffused downward in the inverted eudiometer. The eudiometer was placed in a water bath and the magnesium
“P1V1 = P2V2” shows that as the volume increases, the pressure of the gas decreases in proportion, as long as the temperature stays the same. The relationship between pressure and volume was first noticed by mathematician and astronomer Richard Towneley and experimenter Henry Power. Robert Boyle, a chemist and physicist, confirmed the discovery and published the results in 1662. According to science historians, Boyle’s assistant, Robert Hooke, built the experimental rig. The law is based on air
Kaydyn Dillbeck IDLA Physical Science 10/26/14 Questions for U4A1 Section 1: 1. Kinetic molecular theory- used to explain the behavior of gases and is based upon the following postulates: • Gases are composed of a many particles that behave like hard spherical objects in a state of constant, random motion. • These particles move in a straight line until they collide with another particle or the walls of the container. • These particles are much smaller than the distance between particles,
The goal of this experiment was to use gas-forming reactions to find the best ratio of oxygen to hydrogen for a combustion reaction in order to launch the pipet rocket the farthest. The original hypothesis was that a 2:1 oxygen to hydrogen ratio would result in the farthest launch of the rockets when oxygen added first to the reaction. This hypothesis has been disproven; it has been found through trials that a 1:2 oxygen to hydrogen ratio with the addition of oxygen to the reaction first yields the
. Introduction Vapor pressure is the tendency of the liquid to evaporate and the amount of gas at equilibrium, while vapor is when molecules move from a liquid phase to a gaseous state. Vapor is basically what liquid produces after it starts evaporating. Liquids evaporate because some portions of their molecules have sufficient energy to flee from the liquid phase and become vapor. Some liquids even evaporate faster than other liquids. This is because some of these liquids can be more volatile
Helen Vasquez Chan Research paper My science project is to make an Air Pressure Car move by using the pressure of the chemical reaction of baking soda and vinegar. I want my car to travel a fixed distance in a fixed amount of time and for that I need the right type of nozzle that will not let all of the baking soda and vinegar out all at once. The mixture of both baking soda and vinegar actually creates carbon dioxide. This mixture is actually a two-step process. The first step is as they

The impartial of this laboratory is to regulate the hydrostatic insertion interim on plane superficial engrossed in water when the surface is partially submerged or fully submerged. Also to determine the untried center of pressure and the theoretic center of pressure for every of the trials executed. Introduction: When the quadrant is engrossed in water, it is
winning is above everything can easily ruin child’s motivation to play, says Dr. Henry Goitz, chief of sports medicine at the Medical College of Ohio in Toledo” (Stenson). Therefore, adults who put a lot of pressure on kids can make a kid feel unmotivated to play a sport and all the pressure to do better in a sport can give kids stress. Also, “Recently, one of her players, a 7-year-old boy, hit the boards during an indoor game and was holding his head. His father, former soccer player himself, went
In the short story, “The Tell-Tale Heart” by Edgar Allan Poe, the author writes the story in first person perspective of the main character. The main character acknowledges that he has a disease that allows him to perceive and look at things differently in reality. This mental illness prompts him to want to kill an innocent man because the narrator loathes the old man’s eye. On the eighth night, the main character abruptly kills the old man and confesses to the police because of the panic and pride
