    ;)

    Physics, French, Tec. Drawing, Applied Maths, Accountancy, and the usual 3. All Higher Level.

    Iarrann Caitlín Maude casúr nó tua a thabhairt di ionas go mbrisfeadh sí agus go scriosfadh sí an teach seo. Dhéanfadh sí "tairseach den fhardoras" agus dhéanfadh sí "urláir de na ballaí." Tiocfaidh an "scraith agus díon agus similéir" anuas. Rinne sí é seo ach nuair a bhí an scrios agus millteanas déanta aici, ba mhaith léi teach eile a thógáil. Ní dhearna sí é seo mar bhí sí ró-thraochta.

    Tec. Drawing:
    How do you find the strike of a plane? And why would you need this strike?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 120 ✭✭sarahg_angel69

    biology- distinguish between antigen and pathogen??
    passive and active immunity???


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,496 ✭✭✭*Angel*


    Tec. Drawing:
    How do you find the strike of a plane? And why would you need this strike?

    In context of mining geometry, when finding the thickness of the stratum, an auxiliary is taken and the strike is the line along which this auxiliary is taken.

    In elevation (with two BHs drawn) put one of the lines in a plane parallel to the other, by drawing a horizontal line through one of the points on the line and through the second point drawing a line parallel to the other line. Draw this in plan and along the line (which is horizontal in plan) go along that line for an auxiliary. Therefore the line in plan which is horizontal in elevation is the strike.

    Just goes to show how hard it is to explain TD, it needs to be drawn... :D


    Physics: Define the ampere (yes the long version)!


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,403 ✭✭✭passive


    The unit of current!!

    okay...hold on... the ampere is that current which.. if maintained in 2 infinitely long parallel conductors of negligible cross section 1 metre apart in a vacuum would exert of force of 1N between them?

    correct me on the specifics...and really.. where do you get 2 infinitely long parallel conductors?

    (edit, question: ummmm..... Business; list all the principles of insurance and, while we're at it, unfair grounds for dismissal?)

    Ok I don't have my book/notes with me but I'm sure the force exxerted is 2x10^-7N per metre length of each other.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,945 ✭✭✭D-Generate


    The ampere is the current that if flowing in two infinitely long parralel conducters of negligble cross sectional area in a vacuum produce a force of attraction or repulsion of 2x10^-7 N


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,374 ✭✭✭Gone West


    ok since angel/ d-generate didnt ask a question, I will take over :)

    If a train left athlone at 15:35 and used 2 gallons of fuel to the mile. The train travelled to dublin, which is 80 miles away. It stopped for a total of 3 minutes in 6 different stations. If it arrived in Dublin at 17:05, what did the conductors mother have for dinner last saturday?


  • Posts: 0 [Deleted User]


    The same thing that you had (if you like your mother's food that is.)


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,374 ✭✭✭Gone West


    well done! your question...

    1. Utmost Good Faith - your telling the truth
    2. Insurable Interest - it must be something of worth to u
    3. Indemnity - can't make a profit
    4. Contribution - only one insurance company pays out in proportion
    5. Subrogation - insurance company owns whatevers left of what u recieved compensation for

    Grounds for unfair dismissal
    joining union
    gone on strike
    religous or political opinion
    race, colour sex
    pregnant
    involved in court case against employer




    question
    FULLY!! explaiin law of contract


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,837 ✭✭✭Alkers


    Contract: Legally binding agreement which can be enforced by the law.
    Law of Contract: sets out the rules for proving when a contract exists and when it is terminated.

    1. Offer: Verbally or in writing. Invitation to treat: - an invitation to a customer to make an offer which can then be accepted or rejected.
    2. Acceptance: Unqualified Acceptance/counter offer. Acceptance: - can be communicated by word, in writing or by conduct. Must be communicated within a reasonable period of time. Revocation: - Offer can be withdrawn/changed before acceptance. Pressure/duress: - occurs when a contract does not arise out of genuine free choice.
    3. Consideration: What is exchanged between the parties in the contract.
    4. Intention: The parties to contract must have intended to create a legally-binding contract
    5. Capacity: The people agreeing to the contract must have the legal right to do so. Under 18’s incapacitated persons, Diplomats and Companies acting Ultra Vires.
    6. Legality Of Form: The manner in which the contract is drawn up.
    7. Legality of Purpose: Must have a legal purpose.

    Termination of a legal contract:
    Termination: contract can no longer be legally enforced.
    1. Performance – obligations fulfilled.
    2. Agreement – All sides agree.
    3. Frustration – Unseen event prevents contract from being completed.
    4. Breach – Condition broken.
    Condition: essential element of a contract.
    Warranty: non essential element of a contract
    Condition Broken: financial compensation or specific performance. Rescind the contract at risk of being sued by the other party.
    Warranty Broken: contract can be fulfilled at a greater expense and inconvenience, compensation can be sought.


    How about: Tell me the equations which govern SHM? Physics/App.math


  • Posts: 0 [Deleted User]


    a=-w^2(s)

    T=2(Pi)/W

    I think there's more but I can't really remember.

    Physics:

    State Coulomb's Law.


  • Registered Users Posts: 33,518 ✭✭✭✭dudara


    The ampere is the current that if flowing in two infinitely long parralel conducters of negligble cross sectional area in a vacuum produce a force of attraction or repulsion of 2x10^-7 N

    The ampere is that constant current which if maintained in two infinitely long straight parallel conducting wires of negligible cross section placed 1 m apart in a vacuum causes them to exert a force of 2 x 10^-7 N per metre length of the other

    phew, and I learned that as Gaeilge originally

    I think there's more but I can't really remember.

    Physics:

    State Coulomb's Law.

    The equations which govern SHM are as follows:
    1. a=-w^2X
    2. V^2 = w^2(A^2 - X^2)
    3. x=ASinwt (if the particle starts at the centre).
    4. x=ACoswt (if the particle starts at the extreme)
    5. x=ASin(wt+e) or x=ACos(wt+e)(if the particle starts somewhere else)
    6. T=2(pi)/w
    7. Maximum velocity = wA (as particle passes through o)
    8. Maximum acceleration = w^2A (at extreme point)

    Eh..................are some of them only in Applied Maths? As I've never heard of most of them. I do Applied Maths but SHM is a section I'm leaving out.


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,837 ✭✭✭Alkers


    Yeh a good few are. It's worth looking over, normally an easy question and they've started to mix around the part a's and what not.


  • Posts: 0 [Deleted User]


    Phew! I thought I was missing a page of my Physic's book!

    Well I have 8 of the App Maths questions covered so I think I'll be ok. :o

    Anyway, back to Coulomb's Law.................

    Good for you, I'm so behind...

    Anyway, back to Coulomb's Law.................

    The force between two charages is directly proportional to the product of the magnitude of the charges and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them. F is proportional Q1Q2/r^2 then becomes F = 1/4(pi)(epilson)xQ1Q2/r^2.
