What Is a Satellite Galaxy?
The Large Magellanic Cloud. The Milky Way has a number of satellite galaxies, but the biggest one is the Large Magellanic Cloud. It is about 163,000 light-years away and around 1/100th the size of the Milky Way. Unlike our spiral galaxy, this one lacks a clean spiral shape. Some scientists think that is because the Milky Way and other galaxies are pulling and warping it. In terms of distance, there are two contenders for closest satellite galaxy. One group of stars is small enough that astronomers consider it a âdwarf galaxy.â

Our Milky Way Galaxy is a barred spiral galaxy about 120,000 light-years in diameter containing up too 400 billion stars and possibly just as many planets. Our Solar System is located within the disk of the Milky Way Galaxy, around 27,000 light-years from the Galactic Center of the galaxy. Supermassive black holes are believed to sit at the center of most galaxies. Our Milky Way Galaxy is part of a 'Local Group' of galaxies in which the galaxies move relative to each other.


What Is a Satellite Galaxy?
Either way, it is clear that this bunch of stars has been pulled very close to our Milky Way by our galaxyâs massive gravity. Over time, this could be the fate of other satellite galaxies in the area.


Andromeda Galaxy
The Andromeda Galaxy is the largest galaxy of the Local Group, followed by the Milky Way and the Triangulum Galaxy, there are around 30 other smaller galaxies in the group. Galaxies often collide with each other. Usually, the stars within each will move past one and other due to the vast space between them.

What is a galaxy?
We live on a planet called Earth that is part of our solar system. But where is our solar system? Itâs a small part of the Milky Way Galaxy. A galaxy is a huge collection of gas, dust, and billions of stars and their solar systems. A galaxy is held together by gravity. Our galaxy, the Milky Way, also has a supermassive black hole in the middle. When you look up at stars in the night sky, youâre seeing other stars in the Milky Way. If itâs really dark, far away from lights from cities and houses, you can even see the dusty bands of the Milky Way stretch across the sky.


Wind Velocity and Wind Load
Example - Wind Load acting on a Surface. A hurricane with velocity 35 m/s is acting on a 10 m2 wall. Or - from the table above the wind load per square meter is 735 N/m2. A hurricane acting on a 10 m2 wall creates a force equal to the weight of aprox. 750 kg.


Wind Velocity and Wind Load
Wind Velocity and Wind Load. Wind loads on surfaces. When moving air - wind - is stopped by a surface - the dynamic energy in the wind is transformed to pressure. Note - in practice wind force acting on a object creates more complex forces due to drag and other effects.


Primary loads
A roof with a steep pitch has a steeply sloping roof. roof with a slope that is less than 30o may have positive pressure or negative pressure (suction) depending on the wind direction and the slope of the roof. Moving air affects a structure by exerting pressure on it.


-
What to do about calculating wind loads comes up from time to time. The problem with figuring out wind loads is the wind. In the realm of things near the ground, the wind is very erratic due to interaction with ground features. This can make it difficult to really know what speed is effectively acting on a structure in close proximity to the ground. The generic wind pressure formula is accurate enough for our use, but figuring out what wind speed to use with it is not as straightforward as we would like.


Wind engineering
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. Wind engineering is a subsets of mechanical engineering, structural engineering, meteorology, and applied physics to analyze the effects of wind in the natural and the built environment and studies the possible damage, inconvenience or benefits which may result from wind.


-
This spec thinks the wind speed is the fastest mile basic wind speed at 33 feet above the ground, not the actual peak sustained wind speed, and is obtained from a map that is specific to itself. The spec defines Wind Zones, denoted A, B, and C, with corresponding wind pressures to be used.


Wind Velocity and Wind Load
Wind Velocity and Wind Load. When moving air - wind - is stopped by a surface - the dynamic energy in the wind is transformed to pressure. The pressure acting the surface transforms to a force. Fw = pd A. = 1/2 Ï v2 A (1)


Primary loads
BCGBC4010A > Structural principles - Loads > Primary loads. When wind flows around a building, it can produce some very high suction pressures. These occur mainly at the leading edges. In these areas, the cladding has to be firmly fixed to the structure and the roof has to be firmly held down. The flatter the roof, the higher the suction forces are on the roof and the more important it is to make sure that the holding-down straps are fixed securely into the structure. Move your mouse over the different regions of the house to find out more information about the effects of wind pressure on a building.


Wind engineering
The knowledge of wind engineering is used to analyze and design all high rise buildings, cable suspension bridges and cable-stayed bridges, electricity transmission towers and telecommunication towers and all other types of towers and chimneys. The wind load is the dominant load in the analysis of many tall buildings. So wind engineering is essential for the analysis and design of tall buildings. Again, wind load is a dominant load in the analysis and design of all long-span cable bridges. Hurricane engineering.


-
Although information on this speed is important for wind energy utilization, it is useless for wind load on structures because only high winds of short durations (peak gust in most cases) are of interest in this case (Liu, 1991).

The candle can run for approx. 18 hours on 4 AA batteries. One or two transistors, depending on which flicker pattern is used, are employed at the output of the timer to handle the extra current. If the alternative flicker wiring manner is used, the candle will run for approx. 12 hours on 4 AA batteries. The battery pack 5 a plugs in to the candle in the same spot as the AC adapter 5, or a ganging cord 5 b (which would allow connection of more than one flameless candle to a power source).

History of Soy Candles
The Body Shop was the first national chain store to offer soy candles for sale. Several studies have been conducted on the benefits of soy wax, and The Indiana Soybean Board patented a special soy wax product, Harvest Lights, in 1998. Cargill purchased Michaelâs patent in 2001 and now controls production of soy wax used by various soy candle producers.

History of Soy Candles
In 1834, Joseph Morgan introduced an automated piece of equipment that created pillar candles. The machine âejectedâ the candles as they solidified. In the 1850âs, paraffin wax was invented. A by-product from petroleum, paraffin wax, combined with mass production, finally made candles affordable and cleaner burning.

The present invention involves the use of real candle wax as a foundational element in the creation of a much safer electric replacement to a real flame candle. The obstacle of lacking realism in the prior art is partially overcome because real wax is not substituted with an artificial medium.


History of Soy Candles
Soy wax is a fairly new type of candle wax. It was invented in 1991 by Michael Richards, who was looking for a cheaper alternative to beeswax. There was demand for natural wax products, but bees wax was an incredibly expensive alternative.

An electric motor converts electric energy into mechanical energy that can be used to do work. In the experiment we first use DC current to flow through the wire. Remember that DC current flows in only one direction unless there is a switch to reverse its direction.


-
High voltage on a motor tends to push the magnetic portion of the motor into saturation. This causes the motor to draw excessive current in an effort to magnetize the iron beyond the point where magnetizing is practical. Motors will tolerate a certain change in voltage above the design voltage.


The Highs and Lows of Motor Voltage
This is not the case. High voltage on a motor tends to push the magnetic portion of the motor into saturation. This causes the motor to draw excessive current in an effort to magnetize the iron beyond the point where magnetizing is practical. Motors will tolerate a certain change in voltage above the design voltage.

Electric motors are everywhere! In your house, almost every mechanical movement that you see around you is caused by an AC (alternating current) or DC (direct current) electric motor. A simple motor has six parts: 1  Armature or rotor. 2  Commutator. 3  Brushes. 4  Axle. 5  Field magnet. 6  DC power supply of some sort.


How are current and voltage related to torque and speed of a brushless motor?
A DC motor can be approximated as a circuit with a resistor, and voltage back-emf source. The resistor models the intrinsic resistance of the motor windings. The back-emf models the voltage generated by the moving electric current in the magnetic field (basically a DC electric motor can function as a generator).


Electric Vehicles
The motor in turn delivers power to move the vehicle to the drive wheels through a gearbox.. Electric motors convert electrical energy into mechanical energy. Two types of electric motors are used in electric vehicles to provide power to the wheels. The direct current(DC) motor and the alternating current(AC) motor.


The Highs and Lows of Motor Voltage
Effects of high voltage. An assumption people often make is that since low voltage increases the amperage draw on motors, then high voltage must reduce the amperage draw and heating of the motor. This is not the case. High voltage on a motor tends to push the magnetic portion of the motor into saturation.


How are current and voltage related to torque and speed of a brushless motor?
Electric motors can be designed over a fairly wide range of voltage and current for the same speed and torque out. Just comparing the intended operating voltage of two motors doesn't tell you much about what those motors can ultimately do.


Electric motors and generators
Electric motors, generators, alternators and loudspeakers are explained using animations and schematics. This is a resource page from Physclips, a multi-level multimedia introduction to physics (download the animations on this page). A simple DC motor has a coil of wire that can rotate in a magnetic field.

The total area of Kenya is 224,960 square miles; almost 5,200 sq. miles of this total takes the form of fresh water, mainly in Lake Rudolf. Location Kenya is positioned on the equator on Africa's east coast. Its northernmost and southernmost points are approximately equidistant--a little over 40 north and south of the equator. Kenya shares borders with five other countries.


Kenya
Print this map. Kenya is named after Mount Kenya, a major landmark and the second highest mountain peak in Africa, and its first inhabitants were hunter-gatherers related to modern Khoisan speakers. Bantu-speaking farmers began to populate the region by the first millennium AD followed quickly by Arab traders.


Kenya Geography
Located on the eastern part of the African continent, Kenya is bordered by Tanzania in the southwest and Indian Ocean in the southeast. Sudan and Ethiopia lie to the north and Uganda to the west, while Somalia lies to the east of the geographical location of Kenya. Lake Victoria also lies to the west of Kenya. The geographical coordinates of the country are Latitude 4 North to 4 South and Longitude 34 East to 41 East.


Nairobi, Kenya Â» City Info Â» Geography
Located in between Kampala and Mombasa, Nairobi stretches itself across 684 square kilometers of land. It lies adjacent to the eastern edge of the rift valley and is situated 5450 ft (1661 metres) above the sea level. The Ngong hills occupy the western part of the city. Mount Kenya is located to the North of the city and Mount Kilimanjaro lies towards south-east of Nairobi. The Nairobi River along with its tributaries passes through the Nairobi Province. The City Square is located in the heart of the city and the Kenyan Parliament buildings, Nairobi Law Courts, Kenyatta Conference Centre, the Holy Family Cathedral and the Nairobi City Hall surround the square.


Kenya
Uhuru Muigai Kenyatta is the fourth and current President of Kenya, in office since 9 April 2013. Kenya's population is relatively young â over 70% are under the age of 30. The population has also increased rapidly â in just over 80 years, it has grown from less than 3 million to 44 million.


Kenya Geography
Mount Elgon and Mount Kilimanjaro are the other mountain ranges in Kenya. The Great Rift Valley, located in the western and central part of the country, is one of the striking features of the geography of Kenya.


Geography of Kenya
The climate of Kenya varies by location, from mostly cool every day, to always warm/hot. The climate along the coast is tropical. This means rainfall and temperatures are higher throughout the year. At the coastal cities, Mombasa, Lamu and Malindi, the air changes from cool to hot, almost every day. (see chart below).


Geography of Kenya
The geography of Kenya is diverse. Kenya has a coastline on the Indian Ocean, which contains swamps of East African mangroves. Inland are broad plains and numerous hills. Central and Western Kenya is characterised by the Kenyan Rift Valley home to two of Africa's highest mountains, Mount Kenya and Mount Elgon .The Kakamega Forest in western Kenya is relic of an East African rainforest.


Kenya Geography
Several big and small lakes and rivers form part of the geography of Kenya. Lake Turkana is found in the northern part of the country, whereas Lake Victoria lies to its west. Other important lakes include Lake Naivasha and Lake Nakuru. There are numerous rivers in Kenya also.


Geography of Kenya
Although Kenya is centred at the equator, it shares the seasons of the southern hemisphere: with the warmest summer months in DecemberâMarch and the coolest winter months in JuneâAugust,again with differences in temperature varying by location within the country.


No More Food Pyramid: Nutritional Icon Is Now a Plate
The food pyramid that represented a healthy diet for almost 20 years now gives way to a food plate, the U.S. Department of Agriculture announced today. First lady Michelle Obama, Surgeon General Regina Benjamin and Secretary of Agriculture Tom Vilsack unveiled the new icon.


Chapter.2 - Guidelines for a Healthy Diet
Estimated Energy Requirements. EER's provide an estimate of how many calories are needed to keep body weight stable. Take into account age, gender, weight, height, and level of physical activity. A change in any of these variables changes the person's energy needs.


Chapter.2 - Guidelines for a Healthy Diet
The food groupings of the Exchange Lists differ from the MyPlate food groups because the lists are designed to meet energy and macronutrient criteria, whereas the MyPlate groups are designed to be good sources of nutrients regardless of their energy content.


MyPlate
MyPlate is the current nutrition guide published by the United States Department of Agriculture, a food circle (i.e. a pie chart) depicting a place setting with a plate and glass divided into five food groups. It replaced the USDA's MyPyramid guide on June 2, 2011, ending 19 years of USDA food pyramid diagrams.


MyPlate
MyPlate will be displayed on food packaging and used in nutrition education in the United States.


No More Food Pyramid: Nutritional Icon Is Now a Plate
Fats occupy the top of the pyramid. The USDA revised the pyramid in 2005. The new symbol expanded the number of food groups to six and also included a person walking up steps on the side of the pyramid to emphasize the need for exercise.


Chapter.2 - Guidelines for a Healthy Diet
For example, the food guide How to select Foods, released in 1917, was designed to help people choose a healthy diet based on five food groups: meat and milk, cereals, vegetables and fruits, fats and fatty foods, and sugar and sugary foods.


Chapter.2 - Guidelines for a Healthy Diet
Most Americans are overweight, to reduce this detriment the Dietary Guidelines for Americans emphasize balancing calorie intake from food and beverages consumed with the expenditure of calories in physical activity in order to achieve and maintain a healthy weight.


No More Food Pyramid: Nutritional Icon Is Now a Plate
On MyPlate's website, the USDA emphasizes several important nutrition messages: eat smaller portions, make at least half the plate fruits and vegetables and avoid sugary drinks. Nutrition experts believe a plate is a good choice.


Chapter.2 - Guidelines for a Healthy Diet
Like many other Dietary Recommendation Intake, MyPlate puts the Dietary Recommendations into practice and emphasizes the importance of proportionality, variety, moderation, and nutrient density in a healthy diet. Proportionality means eating more of some types of foods than others.


Meet Executive Order 12333: The Reagan rule that lets the NSA spy on Americans
But Section 215 is a small part of the picture and does not include the universe of collection and storage of communications by U.S. persons authorized under Executive Order 12333. From 2011 until April of this year, I worked on global Internet freedom policy as a civil servant at the State Department.

Obama issues 'executive orders by another name'. President Obama has quietly used a form of executive action called a presidential memorandum to exercise executive power in ways other presidents reserved for executive orders.


Meet Executive Order 12333: The Reagan rule that lets the NSA spy on Americans
Executive Order 12333 contains no such protections for U.S. persons if the collection occurs outside U.S. borders. Issued by President Ronald Reagan in 1981 to authorize foreign intelligence investigations, 12333 is not a statute and has never been subject to meaningful oversight from Congress or any court.


Meet Executive Order 12333: The Reagan rule that lets the NSA spy on Americans
The executive order does not require the NSA to notify or obtain consent of a company before collecting its usersâ data. The attorney general, rather than a court, must approve âminimization proceduresâ for handling the data of U.S. persons that is collected under 12333, to protect their rights.


-
President Obama has issued a form of executive action known as the presidential memorandum more often than any other president in history-using it to take unilateral action even as he has signed fewer executive orders.

In a Senate floor speech in July, Majority Leader Harry Reid said, While Republicans accuse President Obama of executive overreach, they neglect the fact that he has issued far fewer executive orders than any two-term president in the last 50 years..


Obama issues 'executive orders by another name'
WASHINGTON â President Obama has issued a form of executive action known as the presidential memorandum more often than any other president in history â using it to take unilateral action even as he has signed fewer executive orders.

In that document, the White House stated that adoption of Recommendation 12 would require âsignificant changesâ to current practice under Executive Order 12333 and indicated that it had no plans to make such changes.


Meet Executive Order 12333: The Reagan rule that lets the NSA spy on Americans
Executive Order 12333 contains nothing to prevent the NSA from collecting and storing all such communications â content as well as metadata â provided that such collection occurs outside the United States in the course of a lawful foreign intelligence investigation.


Population dynamics and climate change: what are the links?
Climate change has been described as the biggest global health threat of the 21 st century. World population is projected to reach 9.1 billion by 2050, with most of this growth in developing countries.t is politically and ethically important that any discussion of the links between the two recognizes that Northern countries with low population growth are overwhelmingly responsible for climate change, and that Southern countries with high population growth have so far contributed very little to climate change.

In starker terms, China has claimed that its one-child policy, which is estimated to have reduced the population of China by 500 million (from a projected 1.8 billion without such a policy to the current level of 1.3 billion) should be seen as contributing to its overall actions on climate change.t is politically and ethically important that any discussion of the links between the two recognizes that Northern countries with low population growth are overwhelmingly responsible for climate change, and that Southern countries with high population growth have so far contributed very little to climate change.


Economics
Population assumptions range widely, from a low world population projection of 7.1 billion to a high of 15 billion in 2100.

Human Physiology/The male reproductive system
The male has reproductive organs, or genitals, that are both inside and outside the pelvis, while the female has reproductive organs entirely within the pelvis. The male reproductive system consists of the testes and a series of ducts and glands. Sperm are produced in the testes and are transported through the reproductive ducts. These ducts include the epididymis, vas deferens, ejaculatory duct and urethra.


Which statement best describes the male reproductive system?
Its not A... It could be B.... I'm pretty sure it's not C, progesterone is more commonly found in female... D is true but the question asks in terms of the male reproductions system so....... I think the answer is B! It depends on whether you're limiting this to just human males or all species. Human males do share some structures for directing both sperm and urine, but not every living thing does. Male plants don't. Human males can only use their system for external fertilization, but hermaphroditic worms and plants have male reproductive systems that can engage in internal fertilizations.
