Chapter-4 Testing On Aggregate 4.1 Aggregate crushing value test 4.1.1 Aim The aim of that Test is to determine the aggregate crushing value of coarse aggregate which is passed from 12.5mm IS sieve and retained on a10mm. 4.1.2 Apparatus • A steel cylinder of 15mm diameter with base plate and plunger • A straight metal taping rod 16mm diameter and 45 to 60cm long rounded at one end. • A balance of capacity 3 kg readable and accurate to one gram. • IS sieves of sizes 12.5mm, 10mm and 2.36mm • A compression

2. Materials and methods 2.1 Bacterial strains, phages and culture conditions The host bacterial strain L. Lactis 7–18, was grown at 30 °C in M17 broth (Oxoid Ltd., Basingstoke, Hampshire, England) supplemented with 0.5% glucose (GM17) (Terzaghi and Sandine, 1975). The thermo-resistant lactococcal virulent phage P1532 used in this study was obtained from the Félix d 'Hérelle Reference Center for Bacterial Viruses (www.phage.ulaval.ca). P1532 phage was amplified on L. lactis 7-18 that was initially

I’ve spent my whole life trying to get back to one moment, one image: me, no older than seven, running to the park on a brisk summer day, with my mom behind me, and the grass as green as can be. It was the earliest I had ever gotten up, which combined with the gray - instead of the light blue sky - made me feel like I was in a new realm. The sun was glimmering, with speckles of it coming shooting right through the neighbor’s roof. For the first time, I found the sun tolerable that day. Up until then

La Luna He stares at the beautiful night sky as his father and Nonno takes him to the quiet sea. They took a small wooden boat which can fit three people in. The wooden boat swishes through the middle of the calm dark water as Bambino’s father rows gently. He parked the wooden boat properly. The three watched the sky as the beautiful and bright moon rises up high onto the horizon. Bambino’s father pulls up a tall ladder from the inside of the bottom of the boat and lets it reach near closely to the

Experiment to investigate factors affecting the rate of reaction between magnesium ribbon and hydrochloric acid Rates of Reaction: Investigation Experiment to investigate factors affecting the rate of reaction between magnesium ribbon and hydrochloric acid. Chemical reactions between substances are caused by the collision of particles. More collisions mean a quicker rate of reaction. In the reaction between hydrochloric acid and magnesium ribbon, the chemical reaction takes place when the magnesium

Circuit Variables 1 Assessment Problems AP 1.1 To solve this problem we use a product of ratios to change units from dollars/year to dollars/millisecond. We begin by expressing $10 billion in scientific notation: $100 billion = $100 × 109 Now we determine the number of milliseconds in one year, again using a product of ratios: 1 year 1 hour 1 min 1 sec 1 year 1 day · · · = · 31.5576 × 109 ms 365.25 days 24 hours 60 mins 60 secs 1000 ms Now we can convert from dollars/year to dollars/millisecond

Purpose The purpose of this lab is to find the mathematical relationship between the height from which a round object is dropped, and the speed at which it travels when it reaches the ground. This experiment will achieve the goal by measuring the height at which a sphere will be released on a ramp, and recording the time and distance the sphere will travel when it reaches the ground. By analyzing and projecting the quantitative data on a graph, and finding the best fit line will indicate the existing

12 inches equal 1 foot. 3 feet equal 1 yard. 1,760 yards equal 1 mile. At a young age we are forced to memorize these countless conversions making school a real struggle, but what if there is an easier way. If you asked anyone else in the world about measurements, 10 cm equals 1 decameter. 10 decimeter equals 1 meter. 1,000 meters equals 1 kilometer. As a math student in the US, using the traditional system seems absolutely ridiculous; when compared to SI, none of the measurements are consistent

In a distant plain, I was traveling to nowhere. Walking along a path, I looked around, absorbing the sights around me – eight grazing cows and seven snoring sleeping hyenas. Suddenly, I encountered a railroad crossing at a peculiar location. To the right, daisies lined the railroad, and to the left, two perfectly square mountains – both a meter taller than me – blocked the sighting of any approaching westbound train. The railroad gauge was, to my surprise, a meter long. I stopped at a fresh, yellow

In the story, “All Summer in a Day,” Ray Bradbury draws us in, as readers, with a story that takes place on the planet Venus. The environment of Venus is as described in this quote, “It had been raining for seven years; thousands upon thousands of days compounded and filled from one end to the other with rain, with the gush and gush of water...fall of showers and the concussion of storms so heavy they were tidal waves come over the islands…”(Bradbury, 1954) With an environment like this, what type
