According to the Alcohol in Australia: Issues and strategies report undertaken by the Ministerial Council on Drug Strategy in the early days of Australia’s civilisation it shows that in the 1830’s in New South Wales 13.6 litres of alcohol in its pure state were consumes each year by an individual, predominantly males. Furthermore in more recent time’s mass media events have highlighted the positive framing of alcohol, with alcohol developing an identity with high profile sporting and cultural events (Strategy, 2001). This is ‘proven’ to be true in relation to stereotypes given to Australia around the world as a common theme in any alcohol advertisement is the relation of alcohol and having a good time at a major sporting event. When watching a sporting event the viewer is often bombarded with a lcohol messages through â€Å"Teams, athletes and coaches often being captured in the media celebrating a win with alcohol† (Cox, 2014).

Leading Us Jesse Jackson Intro In the 1940s, life in the south was challenging for Americans of color. Segregation was only getting worse and hopes and dreams of getting away were dying. The physical act of slavery was over but ideally no one had let it go just yet. White Americans believed that the world was supposed to be this way, they were and always would be superior to those of color, and they showed it in any way possible. Growing up during these times may seem impossible for children of my day and time, but for Jesse Jackson, he thrived to be different, to stand out--to succeed. Globally, Mr. Jackson has successfully left a historic mark on society. By standing out and speaking up, he became one of many great African American†¦show more content†¦He never knew who his biological father was until he was 10 years old. The teasing throughout the years was harsh. They accused him of being a nobody with no father. Since then he strived to be somebody! He lived by it. A while later Jesse’s mother married a man by the name of Charles Jackson. Charles was a great father to Jesse and formally adopted him and changed his name to Jackson. From then on out Charles acted as if Jesse was his son and treated him no less. Having growing up during the time of segregation Mr. Jackson was fully aware that he was thought to be different. He recalls the times where he and his mother had to ride on the back of the bus and his school lacked things he needed to have a useful education. But these minor setbacks didn’t stop or hold him back. Jackson grew up in the church environment. He used to say things like â€Å"I’m going to lead people through the rivers of the water†. People call that speaking things into existence and this he did. His long background of ministry in his family made it destine for Jesse to follow suit.

Energy transference at hypersonic velocities Free Essays

I’m pretty sure we have had this discussion before so I’ve got one of my old copycats from a previous thread. Force travels through solid objects at roughly the speed of sound in that object, if you force a piece of an object to move at greater than the speed of sound through that medium it will simply tear whatever is holding it together without transmitting force to the surrounding structure. His gives a kind of hole punch effect If the projectile Is moving faster than the speed of sound In the target. We will write a custom essay sample on Energy transference at hypersonic velocities or any similar topic only for you Order Now The maximum known speed of mound is about 1 km/s in diamond, given that a dreaded shot moves at about Kim/s it is safe to assume that armor anti going to do sit. Given the momentum behind the small slug it should remain above the speed of sound in diamond until (keg*Kim/s/km/s) the total mass of matter it has punched through reaches 5. 3 tones. Second, things heat up when they are compressed as given by the perfect gas law (at these energy densities it is close enough for our purposes despite everything being solid) so when the projectile gets compressed it heats up, if it heats up to the correct bevel it melts, vaporizes and turns into plasma, that depends on the energy densities present (FUSION). So when a solid slug hits the armor the first thing which will happen Is that the slug punches a hole clean through the armor, no if’s, no buts. Then the pressure wave begins to propagate through both the armor chunk which has been torn out and the projectile, the amount of pressure in this wave is so immensely fugue that the matter instantly becomes plasma shortly followed by becoming a angular fireball. The only question left is how far does the projectile reach inside the ship until you can top modeling It as a projectile and have to start modeling It as a nuke. He Irony here Is that armor essentially contains the fireball Inside the vessel Instead of keeping it on the outside. This is also why whippier shields are effective, the small layer of matter makes a hyper velocity impact under go the pressure induced explosion and become a far less damaging gas which Is then repelled by the actual armor of the vessel. Than weapons are a whole different ballgame. Nationally what comes out of a Than weapon can be considered a mass driver slug (the fact that it is molten doesn’t tater, the impact velocity is so far beyond the speed of sound in the target and projectile that it’s irrelevant) but in this case instead of being a CACM long cylinder or even a Javelin It is a long thin wire which probably only has a cross section measured In tenths of millimeters and a length In the hundreds of meters. ND punches a hole, the pressure wave propagates back through the projectile, as the pressure wave passes it explodes with the force of a nuclear weapon. So far normal. BUT Because the projectile is so long and traveling orders of magnitude faster than it’s peed of sound, once the front end explodes it leaves relatively clear (exploded) space for the next section of the projectile to pass through anus strike deeper into the target, Just like a pulsed laser or a multiple impact kinetic weapon like metal storm. His happens over and over and over again, the end effect is that a Than weapon will punch clean through a ship and out the other side which leaves a nice neat little hole.
