The bullying is result of jealous because Margot got to experience something that they never might get to experience in their lifetime. They lock Margot in a closet when they see

The common theme for Don't give up and Making Sarah cry is helping others. In Making Sarah cry Sarah protects the narrator when he gets bullied. While in Don’t Give Up The Fight the narrator tells her friend about her being bullied and the friend tells the principle and the bullies get in trouble. Even though they both share a common theme they are also completely different stories. In Making Sarah Cry the characters actions made him grow up because he was hit by a car and everybody bullied him

Canis Major, The Great Dog, loyally follows and protects the mythical hunter across the winter sky on the edge of the galaxy. At the big dog’s neck (or, as some cultures show it, at the nose) is what appears to be the brightest star in the entire sky, Sirius. But this brilliant beacon is actually a close pair of two. The tiny second star is sometimes called “The Pup.” In ancient Egypt, Sirius was the basis of the calendar that foretold the time of the annual floods. It represented the resurrection

My favourite constellaton is Draco.I have chosen this constallation because Draco is Latin for dragon and dragons are one of my favourite creatures. Draco can be seen in the Northern Hemisphere all year round. This constellation is one of the modern 88 constellations and is one of the 48 constellatons listed by Ptolemy in the 2nd century. In Greek mythology, the dragon represents Ladon, who was killed by Hercules whilst he was trying to steal the golden apples that Ladon was protecting. In Greco-Roman

Aim: To find out the relationship between the greater concentration of sodium thiosulfate when mixed with hydrochloric acid and the time it takes for the reaction (the time it takes for the solution to turn cloudy) to take place and to show the effect on the rate of reaction when the concentration of one of the reactants change. Introduction: The theory of this experiment is that sodium thiosulfate and hydrochloric acid reach together to produce sulfur as one of its products. Sulfur is a yellow

Introduction The goal of the experiment is to examine how the rate of reaction between Hydrochloric acid and Sodium thiosulphate is affected by altering the concentrations. The concentration of Sodium thiosulfate will be altered by adding deionised water and decreasing the amount of Sodium thiosulphate. Once the Sodium thiosulphate has been tested several times. The effect of concentration on the rate of reaction can be examined in this experiment. The chemical equation for this experiment is hydrochloric

Human history offers people from all walks of life the privilege of understanding the conception of bridging the racial gap. No one could have ever imagined that The Color Line could be infiltrated by way of an All-American Sport. If I had a chance to speak to anyone, dead or alive, it would be an honor to sit and speak with Jackie Robinson. Robinson was 28 years old when he broke down color barriers in baseball. Although he was barely older than the age of the typical college graduate during

News reporter Welcome back to Everyday news. In yesterday's segment, it was said that an archaeologist found information about the industrial revolution and its impact within the environment. Today, this special guest, will be answering some questions about today's topic. To start off, I will be defining the meaning of the industrial revolution. The Industrial Revolution dramatically changed every aspect of human life and lifestyles, it was known to be one of the largest changes that occurred to

Hysteria After an Earthquake In 2010 a major earthquake of a high magnitude hit the country of Haiti. The earthquake hit near the town of Leogane not too far from Haiti’s capital. The earthquake was one of the highest ever recorded. It was catastrophic and put the country in ruins by destroying millions of homes, buildings, and roads. After the quake the country was going through a case of mass hysteria. The quake in Haiti had a high magnitude of 7.0 one of the highest ever recorded. The earthquake hit

the epicentre of the quake was on land no Tsunami occurred. The event was followed by aftershocks for about 17 months. One of the major and devastating aftershock was Christchurch earthquake. At 12.51 pm NZDT on 22 February 2011 an earthquake of magnitude 6.3 again struck the Canterbury region of South island, New Zealand, but this time the earthquake was centred 2 kilometres west of the port town of Lyttelton and 10 kilometres south-east of the centre of Christchurch, New Zealand's second most populous

Earthquakes are caused when rock underground suddenly breaks along a fault. This sudden release of energy causes the seismic waves that make the ground shake. When two plates are rubbing against each other, they stick a little. Most earthquakes occur along the edge of the oceanic and continental plates. Due to stress they shift and cause the earthquake. that zone is more subject to seismic disasters. Tectonic, volcanic, collapse and explosion, are the four different types of earthquakes. A tectonic

Physics Lab Report Name – Shaurya A Singhal I.D – 13229 Grade – 12 Investigating the effect of the angle of incidence on the diameter of a Crater formed by a falling object Introduction When a bob is dropped into sand, a circular crater is formed due to the impact of the ball. The size of the crater varies with numerous factors, Mass of falling object Angle of incidence Velocity of object Rigidity and Tensile Strength of surface on which object falls Background Theory When a high-speed object

different cases of Earthquakes, 1 in an MEDC (More Economically Developed Country) and the other in an LEDC (Less Economically Developed Country) both of a magnitude of 7.0. The two earthquakes that I will be comparing are the Kobe Earthquake in Japan in 1995 of a magnitude of 7 (for the MEDC) and the Haiti Earthquake in 2010 of a magnitude of 7.0 (for the LEDC).I will be comparing the impact after the Earthquake, the damage inflicted on the city, the cost in damage and the loss of lives and the

BORN ONTO NIGHT Government had already used army before my birthday. Guerilla warfare was haunting the sleeps of people. Citizen had to fear both revolutionary and military. National Strike were like the Saturdays, regular holidays.

On the face of a cenotaph a tile quivers—delicately but ominously, as if an earthquake were approaching. It quivers again, rocking back and forth more perceptibly, soon escalating into a spasmodic motion. Suddenly, the tile falls, plunging swiftly downwards and shattering out of existence as it hits the ground. And along with the tile, a letter of the alphabet disappears forever. This is the situation presented in the novel Ella Minnow Pea, by Mark Dunn. In this novel, the characters face censorship

5) Astronomers will define star brightness in a way of apparent magnitude (looking at it from Earth how bright does it appear) and the absolute magnitude (from a standard distance of 32.6 light years or 10 parsecs on how bright the star appears) 6) The temperature of a star is measured through two or more optical filters, then fitting a black body curve
