    jury before they decide Tom Robinson's fate. In Atticus's summation speech he uses four literary devices in an attempt to make an effective speech to the jury which are diction, syntax, imagery, and irony. He combines those four literary elements in his speech to undertake the task of attempting to persuade the jury to put aside their prejudice toward Tom Robinson and justly give Tom robinson the verdict he deserves. In Atticus’s summation speech he uses diction to help persuade the jury. One example

    sorts to calculate as many mathematical constants as I could. Constant Explanation and Code Alladi-Grinstead constant The Alladi-Grinstead constant is defined as ec-1, where ck=21kln(kk-1). To do summation (), one has to use a for-loop with precision-limiting behavior. This code uses an interchanged summation using the Riemann zeta function (n), this converges much faster than the technical definition above, which is essential to optimizing the code. The value of the Alladi-Grinstead constant is: 0

    Macroeconomics is that commodity monies are tangibly traded with the use in in realization and fiat monies “{are} items designated as money that are intrinsically worthless” (p. 191). After the section on commodity and fiat monies concluded with a summation regarding currency debasement, Case, Fair, and Oster listed two equations for transaction money and broad money. The transaction money equation was M1 = currency held outside banks + demand deposits + travelers’ checks +

    “To hit irons solidly, which is the key to distance control, you need to hit down and compress the ball between the ground and the face of the club. This produces backspin which, added to the club's loft, makes the ball rise” Factors such as the, summation of forces and levers all correlate to perform the perfect gold swing, Biomechanics play a fundamental role in every physical aspect and any flaw within the biomechanics can have a detrimental effect on the outcome of the balls flight path, or the

    One key biomechanical principle that can be better utilized in force summation. The summation of forces in executing a volleyball spike, is a very crucial principle of biomechanics as it is known to be the sum of all forces generated by each body part. Correspondingly, referred to as the summation of forces. To gain maximum momentum in a volley ball spike, the force needs to be generated, there are 4 influential factors that affect

    Nerve and muscle twitch recruitment: External electrode stimulation of a nerve or muscle can lead to a twitch so long as the stimulus voltage is above the muscle or nerve’s threshold value. Electrical stimulation works to open ion channels without the muscle cells, leading to the firing of action potentials. After some time, however, a maximal stimulus voltage will be found. Voltages above this lead to no significant increase in the amplitude of the twitch. Our expectation was that twitch amplitude

    Two experimental procedures designed to provide empirical evidence for inhibitory conditioning during classical conditioning are the Summation and Retardation tests. Inhibitory Conditioning (CS¯) refers to prevention or reduction of a conditioned response (CR) due to the presence of a conditioned stimulus (CS). The Encyclopaedia of the Sciences of Learning defines conditioned inhibition as “conveying information that a possible future event is less likely than it would be otherwise”. Consequently

    in order to gain a greater understanding of performance in athletic events through modelling, simulation and measurement. It is also necessary to have a good understanding of the application of physics to sport. In volleyball the applications of summation of forces, projectile motion and balance and stability have a major influence on the success and accuracy of an overhead serve. Biomechanics is the study of the law related to the movements of pattern of the human body. The

    elicit an action potential. Two sub-threshold potentials occurring in quick succession can summate and cause an action potential to occur even though each individual potential would not trigger an action potential. This is referred to as temporal summation. After the depolarization phase of the membrane, the membrane becomes completely unresponsive to stimulation, known as an absolute refractory period. The speed at which an action potentials are
