project is about how careers are using math in everyday life. My project is on slopes and I decided to do a pilot. Slope is a line that is a number that describes both the direction and the steepness of the line‚ slope is usually denoted by the letter m. I picked a pilot because it seemed the most interesting to me. I’m going to be explaining how‚ what‚ when‚ and where pilots use sloping and other skills. Pilots use slope to determine where to land and when to put the wheels down. Being a pilot is

Slope deflection method From Wikipedia‚ the free encyclopedia The slope deflection method is a structural analysis method for beams and frames introduced in 1914 by George A. Maney.[1] The slope deflection method was widely used for more than a decade until the moment distribution method was developed.

Slope Stability In this laboratory project‚ I practiced analyzing highway embankment using GeoStudio 2012. A highway embankment is built in order to avoid the change in level. In this model‚ the embankment was constructed on a layer of soft clay and I needed to use GeoStudio 2012 to determine the location of the critical slip surface and the factor of safety. There are basically eight steps to analyze a new model using GeoStudio 2012. First is to start a new project‚ then‚ set the analysis options

informed discretion in all activities. Combination of power‚ authority‚ and discretion in police work produces great potential for abuse. Police corruption has been a problem in American society since the early days of policing. An ancient natural tendency of human beings is to attempt to placate or win over those in positions of authority over them. This tendency is complicated in today’s materialistic society by greed and by the personal and financial benefit to be derived from evading

CORRUPTION Corruption is a feature of African‚ social‚ political and even religious life with disastrous consequences. It not only impedes economy development but also increases poverty by making a few individuals richer and many poorer. So corruption can be defined as making someone morally corrupt or becoming morally corrupt oneself.

Corruption in any form is treated as an incurable disease‚ a cause of many social and economical evils in the society and it damages the moral and ethical fibres of the civilization. Indisputably‚ it is correct that corruption breeds many evils in the society and once corruption starts taking place‚ slowly and gradually whole country passes through its net and it becomes after sometime an incurable disease. From the point of view of economic growth‚ there seems to be no clear cut correlation between

CORRUPTION: The long and short of it The recent turn of events in our country point towards a mass awakening to the scar of corruption and deeply it has trickled down into the grass roots of each and every sphere of India. People‚ rather the masses‚ are waking up and smelling the coffee and taking law in their own hands by questioning the government about each and every step taken by them in the past few years. The motto seems to be “civil disobedience”‚ a far cry from the peaceful protests held
