Sub-orbital spaceflight
By one definition a sub-orbital spaceflight reaches an altitude higher than 100 km (62 mi) above sea level. This altitude, known as the KÃ¡rmÃ¡n line, was chosen by the FÃ©dÃ©ration AÃ©ronautique Internationale because it is roughly the point where a vehicle flying fast enough to support itself with aerodynamic lift from the Earth's atmosphere would be flying faster than orbital speed.


Sub-orbital spaceflight
The derivative of Îv also goes to zero here. So if d = 19 000 km, the length of the minimum-delta-v trajectory will be about 19 500 km, but it will take only a few seconds less time than the trajectory for d = 20 000 km (for which the trajectory is 20 000 km long).

What is the biggest animal ever to exist on Earth?
By considerable measure, the largest known animal on Earth is the blue whale. Mature blue whales can measure anywhere from 75 feet (23 m) to 100 feet (30.5 m) from head to tail, and can weigh as much as 150 tons (136 metric tons).

It makes a lot of sense that the world's largest animal would be a sea creature.

Representing Scopes was the famed trial lawyer Clarence Darrow. Slick and sophisticated, Darrow epitomized the urban society in which he lived. The prosecution was led by William Jennings Bryan, three-time presidential candidate and former secretary of state.


The Scopes Trial
The Scopes Trial In March 1925, the Tennessee legislature passed a measure known as the Butler Act that made it illegal for teachers in the public schools to present as factual any theory of creation other than the biblical account.


"What was the Scopes ""Monkey Trial"" about, and why is it important?"
It was a confrontation between the forces of religious fundamentalism and rational secular thought. Ironically the trial was originally intended as a tourist trap, a way to drive up housing prices in the slow little Tennessee town.

Chapter 8 Ancient Greece
27. What was the main cause for the independence of city-states in ancient Greece?


Ancient Greece
The Greek name for a city-state was polis. Each city-state, or polis, had its own government. Some city states were monarchies ruled by kings or tyrants. Others were oligarchies ruled by a few powerful men on councils. The city of Athens invented the government of democracy and was ruled by the people for many years.


Ancient Greece
These colonies played an important role in the spread of Greek influence throughout Europe and also aided in the establishment of long-distance trading networks between the Greek city-states, boosting the economy of ancient Greece. Politics and society Political structure


City-state
1 The name was initially given to the political form that crystallized during the classical period of Greek civilization. The city-stateâs ancient Greek name, polis, was derived from the citadel (acropolis), which marked its administrative centre; and the territory of the polis was usually fairly limited. City-states differed from tribal or national systems in size, exclusiveness, patriotism, and passion for independence. The origin of city-states is disputed.

Below is an image of a heart I labeled to study for the quiz! Click the image to view it at a larger size. To further my research on the heart I will compare the ventricle size to the outer wall size of each heart. The cow heart has a large outer wall while the rest of the walls vs. ventricles have a close number.


What is the normal thickness of the left ventricle in the heart?
Best Answer: By teenage and adult ages, the walls of the left ventricle have thickened to three to six times greater than that of the right ventricle. Rowers, cyclists, and cross-country skiers tend to have the largest hearts, with an average left ventricular wall thickness of 1.3 centimeters. Normal thickness of the left ventricular myocardium is from 0.6 to 1.1 cm (as measured at the very end of diastole. If the myocardium is more than 1.1 cm thick, the diagnosis of left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) can be made.


"Increased right ventricular wall thickness in left ventricular pressure overload: echocardiographic determination of hypertrophic response of the ""nonstressed"" ventricle."
Average right ventricular wall thickness in hypertensive patients (7 +/- 2 mm) and patients with aortic stenosis (6 +/- 2 mm) was significantly greater than that in normal subjects (4 +/- 1 mm) and patients with dilated cardiomyopathy (4 +/- 1 mm) who had normal left ventricular wall thickness, even though left ventricular mass was increased in all patient groups.


I break open hearts on Valentineâs Day! (:
I break open hearts on Valentineâs Day! (: T order to begin studying the circulatory system we dissected hearts on Valentineâs day. Really, we just cut the heart horizontally to cut it in half. After opening the heart we looked at the different parts of the heart and measured certain parts. We cut open a sheep heart, pig heart, and a cow heart.


"Increased right ventricular wall thickness in left ventricular pressure overload: echocardiographic determination of hypertrophic response of the ""nonstressed"" ventricle."
Increased right ventricular wall thickness was present in 40 (80%) of 49 patients with hypertension and 10 (63%) of 16 patients with aortic stenosis. The magnitude of increase in right ventricular wall thickness was linearly correlated (r = 0.76, p less than 0.005) with left ventricular wall thickness, but was not associated with pulmonary hypertension.


"Increased right ventricular wall thickness in left ventricular pressure overload: echocardiographic determination of hypertrophic response of the ""nonstressed"" ventricle."
To determine the frequency of right ventricular hypertrophy and its relation to increased left ventricular wall thickness in patients with left ventricular pressure overload, right ventricular wall thickness was measured using M-mode echocardiography with two-dimensional echocardiographic guidance in 65 patients with left ventricular pressure ...


"Increased right ventricular wall thickness in left ventricular pressure overload: echocardiographic determination of hypertrophic response of the ""nonstressed"" ventricle."
To determine the frequency of right ventricular hypertrophy and its relation to increased left ventricular wall thickness in patients with left ventricular pressure overload, right ventricular wall thickness was measured using M-mode echocardiography with two-dimensional echocardiographic guidance in 65 patients with left ventricular pressure overload; 49 patients had essential hypertension and 16 had aortic valve stenosis.


What is the normal thickness of the left ventricle in the heart?
The right ventricle's wall thickness for an adult is 4-5 mm.The left ventricle also occupies the vast majority of the heart's apex. The wall of the left ventricle for an adult is 8-15 mm thick.Rowers, cyclists, and cross-country skiers tend to have the largest hearts, with an average left ventricular wall thickness of 1.3 centimeters, compared to 1.1 centimeters in normal adults.

How can I calculate molality of ions in solution?
Aug 19, 2015. Molality is the moles of ions in solution divided by the kilograms of solvent. For example, if you dissolve 1.0 moles of NaCl in 1.0 kilogram of solution, you will have 1.0 molal concentration of sodium chloride. Because sodium chloride not only dissolves in water, but dissociates into ions, each ion, the sodium and the chloride ion will be 1.0 molal.


Molarity to molality?
This litre of solution contains 3.5 moles of compound with molar mass 92g/mol Mass of solute = 3.5*92 = 322g Therefore the 970g solution contains 322g of solute and 970-322 = 648g water. What mass of solute is dissolved in 1 litre(1kg) of water: 322/648*1000 = 496.9g solute dissolved in 1000g or 1kg of water 496.9 = 496.9/92 = 5.40 moles You have 5.40 mol of compound dissolved in 1kg water Molality = 5.40m

The point is to solve the problem.


How can I calculate molality of ions in solution?
Consider another ionic compound, calcium chloride, which has the formula, #CaCl_2#. If you 1.0 molal of this compound is dissolved in water, you obtain a 1.0 molal concentration of calcium and 2.0 molal concentration of chloride ions since when calcium chloride dissolves, it dissociates into three ions, one calcium and two chloride ions.
