Shock wave
Like an ordinary wave, a shock wave carries energy, and can propagate through a medium. It is characterized by an abrupt, nearly discontinuous change in pressure, temperature and density of the medium. In supersonic flows, expansion is achieved through an expansion fan. Unlike solitons (another kind of nonlinear wave), the energy of a shock wave dissipates relatively quickly with distance.


What is a Wave?
And in the case of the stadium wave, the medium through which the stadium wave travels is the fans that are in the stadium. Particle-to-Particle Interaction. To fully understand the nature of a wave, it is important to consider the medium as a collection of interacting particles.


What is a Wave?
A Wave Transports Energy and Not Matter. When a wave is present in a medium (that is, when there is a disturbance moving through a medium), the individual particles of the medium are only temporarily displaced from their rest position. There is always a force acting upon the particles that restores them to their original position.


Frequency and Period of a Wave
Frequency and Period of a Wave. A single back-and-forth vibration of the first coil of a slinky introduces a pulse into the slinky. But the act of continually vibrating the first coil with a back-and-forth motion in periodic fashion introduces a wave into the slinky.


Waves in a Slinky
The velocity of an object refers to how fast an object is moving and is usually expressed as the distance traveled per time of travel. In the case of a wave, the speed is the distance traveled by a wave crest in a given interval of time. In equation form, v = d/t. If the crest of a slinky wave moves a distance of 20 meters in 10 seconds, then the speed of the ocean wave is 2 m/s.

In the most common contexts in elementary school, mathematics does not have a formal definition for these terms, nor does it have rules about proper use. But natural usage does follow some conventions. (See below.)


breadth
dimension - the magnitude of something in a particular direction (especially length or width or height) broadness, wideness - the property of being wide; having great width. beam - (nautical) breadth amidships. narrowness - the property of being narrow; having little width; the narrowness of the road.

Glossary and Terms: Measurement. Area - The measurement of the surface of an area is defined in square units. The area is the number of squares that fit inside the region. The formula for determining the area of a rectangle is length x width. Example: Area = 5 x 6 = 30 square units, where the length = 5 units and the width = 6 units. Capacity - The capacity is the measurement of how much something will hold. It is also the volume of an object.

Divergent evolution
Divergent evolution is the accumulation of differences between groups, leading to the formation of new species. The term can also be applied in molecular evolution, such as to proteins that derive from homologous genes.


Divergent evolution
J. T. Gulick (1832-1923) was the first to use the term divergent evolution Divergent evolution occurs when a structure with a common origin is adapted in different ways in different lineages, as with vertebrate forelimbs which now form paddles in whales, wings in bats, hands in primates, and running legs in horses. Divergent evolution similarly split the human lineage from chimpanzees.


Different Patterns of Evolution
Groups of species undergo various kinds of natural selection and, over time, may engage in several patterns of evolution: convergent evolution, divergent evolution, parallel evolution, and coevolution.


Different Patterns of Evolution
Convergent evolution is the process in which species that are not closely related to each other independently evolve similar kinds of traits. For example, dragonflies, hawks, and bats all have wings. None of these organisms owes its wings to genes inherited from any of the others.


Analogous Structures: Definition & Examples
This usually results because the species live in similar environments and fill similar ecological roles. The structures in this case are known as analogous structures. The process that brings these traits forward is called convergent evolution. Convergent evolution is natural selection that favors the same type of structure in different ancestors. The similarity between convergent evolution-affected species is called homoplasy, which literally means 'from the same mold or form.' Examples of Convergent Evolution


Divergent evolution
Through gene duplication, it is possible for divergent evolution to occur between two genes within a species. Similarities between species that have diverged are due to their common origin, so such similarities are homologies.


Different Patterns of Evolution
Divergent evolution. Divergent evolution is the process in which a trait held by a common ancestor evolves into different variations over time. A common example of divergent evolution is the vertebrate limb. Whale flippers, frog forelimbs, and your own arms most likely evolved from the front flippers of an ancient jawless fish. Because they share a common evolutionary origin, these are examples of homologous structures. An important consequence of divergent evolution is speciation, the divergence of one species into two or more descendant species. 1  There are four major ways speciation can occur: 2  Allopatric speciation occurs when a population becomes separated into two entirely isolated subpopulations.


Divergent evolution
Darwin's finches are a clear and famous example of divergent evolution, in which an ancestral species radiates into a number of descendant species with both similar and different traits. Divergent evolution is the accumulation of differences between groups, leading to the formation of new species. The term can also be applied in molecular biology characteristics, such as to proteins that derive from two or more homologous genes.


Convergent Evolution: Examples & Definition
The similarity between convergent evolution-affected species is called homoplasy, which literally means 'from the same mold or form.' Examples of traits derived from convergent evolution include wings and flippers. Learning Outcomes. When you are finished, you should be able to: Compare analogous and homologous structures and provide examples of each


Convergent Evolution: Examples & Definition
There are many examples of convergent evolution available for us to examine in nature. We can observe various flying animals - bats, birds, insects, and even fish. However, even though wing structures serve the same function for these different animals, the bone structures, wing coverings (such as feathers, scales, hair, etc.), shape, and sizes are quite different.

This shot is VERY effective for birth control, but the side effects are NOT worth it. I gained 17 pounds, had horrible mood swings, was constantly crying and moody, and I had the worst constant breakouts. I started it at 20 years old and had never had any acne in my life and had never had any problems with my weight.

DNA in pro-/eukaryotes
In eukaryotic cells, like in the maize cell shown here, DNA is located in the nucleus, the mitochondria and the chloroplasts (occuring only in plants and some protists). 1  The nucleus contains most DNA.  Mitochondria contain a relatively small amount of DNA tha is arranged in circular molecules.


Structure of Prokaryotes
The Prokaryotic Cell. Prokaryotes are unicellular organisms that lack organelles or other internal membrane-bound structures . Therefore, they do not have a nucleus, but, instead, generally have a single chromosome: a piece of circular, double-stranded DNA located in an area of the cell called the nucleoid. Most prokaryotes have a cell wall outside the plasma membrane.

The hypothalamus is the main neural control center (brain part that controls endocrine glands). The pituitary gland lies just below the hypothalamus. The pituitary gland is a small endocrine gland that secretes a variety of hormones (organic chemicals that regulate the body's physiological processes).t the rear of the brain is the cerebellum. The cerebellum is similar to the cerebrum: each has hemispheres that control the opposite side of the body and are covered by gray matter and surface folds. In the cerebellum, the folds are called folia; in the cerebrum, sulci.


Brain Parts and Function
The Thalamus is THE relay station in the brain. Most of the sensory signals, auditory (sound), Visual, Somatosensory (from your skin and internal organs), go through this organ on their way to other parts of the brain for processing. It also plays a function in motor control.he Limbic System sometimes called the emotional brain or Old Mammalian Brain is the next part of the brain to have evolved in the more primitive mammals about 150 million years ago.


Brain Structures and Their Functions
This portion of the brain is located in the cerebral hemisphere. Hypothalamus: The hypothalamus region of the brain controls mood, thirst, hunger and temperature. It also contains glands which control the hormonal processes throughout the body.he brain is made up of nerve cells which interact with the rest of the body through the spinal cord and nervous system. These cells relate information back to specific centers of the brain where it can be processed and an appropriate reaction can be generated.

Anatomy of the Brain
The cerebrum is the largest part of the brain and is composed of right and left hemispheres. It performs higher functions like interpreting touch, vision and hearing, as well as speech, reasoning, emotions, learning, and fine control of movement. The cerebellum is located under the cerebrum.he brain communicates with the body through the spinal cord and twelve pairs of cranial nerves (Fig. 6). Ten of the twelve pairs of cranial nerves that control hearing, eye movement, facial sensations, taste, swallowing and movement of the face, neck, shoulder and tongue muscles originate in the brainstem.

Lidocaine
It is generally safe to use in those allergic to tetracaine or benzocaine. Lidocaine is an antiarrhythmic medication of the class Ib type. Lidocaine works by blocking sodium channels and thus decreasing the rate of contractions of the heart. When used locally as a numbing agent, local neurons cannot signal the brain. Lidocaine was discovered in 1946 and went on sale in 1948. It is on the WHO Model List of Essential Medicines, the most important medications needed in a basic healthcare system.


Lidoderm Adhesive Patch, Medicated
Lidocaine belongs to a class of drugs known as local anesthetics. It works by causing a temporary loss of feeling in the area where you apply the patch. HOW TO USE: This product should only be applied to healthy, normal skin. Do not apply to skin that is broken or irritated. Dosage is based on your medical condition and response to therapy. Remove the protective liner and apply the patch to the skin area that is most painful. Apply the prescribed number of patches, usually only once a day for up to 12 hours or as directed by your doctor.


Lidocaine
Lidocaine, also known as xylocaine and lignocaine, is a medication used to numb tissue in a specific area and to treat ventricular tachycardia. It can also be used for nerve blocks. Lidocaine mixed with a small amount of epinephrine is available to allow larger doses to be used as numbing and to make it last longer.

Saltpeter is the popular name for the chemicals potassium nitrate and sodium nitrate. It is an important component of fertilizers, explosives, food preservatives, propellants and toothpaste for sensitive teeth.A concentrated solution of potassium nitrate speeds up decomposition of vegetable matter such as tree stumps.rdinary saltpeter in the form of potassium nitrate occurs in the sap of plants such as sunflower, common borage, celandine and tobacco. Vegetables such as spinach, celery and cabbage contain significant amounts of potassium nitrate.


What is Salt Peter?
Salt peter typically refers to the chemical compound potassium nitrate, though it may also refer to sodium nitrate. Salt peter was once collected from decomposing material, but today, it is generally manufactured by treating sodium nitrate, mostly mined in Chile, with potassium chloride and collecting the precipitate.alt peter is also used as a fertilizer and as a stump remover, as it accelerates the decomposition process of tree stumps. Salt peter can be found in many everyday products as well. It is used to preserve some foods, most commonly meats, although there are concerns about its health effects.


Are There Natural Sources of Potassium Nitrate?
Potassium nitrate is also called saltpeter and nitrite. It is commonly used to make gun powder and minor explosives, for curing meats and used medically for wounds (when combined with other chemicals).ecause potassium nitrate can be found in soils, either by the natural decaying process or by the use of fertilizers, it gets absorbed into vegetables such as spinach, celery and cabbage.

Generally, you can assume that homeschooling costs more than a public school education and less than a private school. If you had to, you could homeschool practically for free using public resources like libraries, PBS shows, museums, the Internet, and hand-me-down educational supplies.


Homeschooling in the United States
Homeschooling in the United States. Homeschooling in the United States constitutes the education for about 3.4% of U.S. students (around 2 million students). It is a subject of legal debate; not about the right to homeschool but about the amount of state regulation and help that can or should be expected.


Research Facts on Homeschooling
Taxpayers spend nothing on most homeschool students and homeschool families spend an average of $600 per student for their education. Homeschooling is quickly growing in popularity among minorities. About 15% of homeschool families are non-white/nonHispanic (i.e., not white/Anglo). An estimated 3.4 million U.S. adults have been homeschooled for at least one year of their K-12 years, and they were homeschooled an average of 6 to 8 years.

The bottom line is that: (1) you have complete control over how much homeschooling will cost and (2) you can give your child a quality education no matter how much or how little money you have. Check out the depth of resources available in our Resource Guide: http://www.homeschool.com/resources/.


Research Facts on Homeschooling
This is up from one estimate that there were about 2 million children (in grades K to 12) home educated during the spring of 2010 in the United States (Ray, 2011). It appears the homeschool population is continuing to grow (at an estimated 2% to 8% per annum over the past few years).


What Does it Cost to Homeschool?
Extracurricular Lessons. In our area, music lessons cost approximately $40 per hour (group rates are considerably less). Our homeschool band is $385 per year, plus instrument, for a total of about $585. Ballet or gymnastics classes are about $40 per month for nine months, for a total of $360.
