Furthermore‚ the possibility of revolting against Nazi or Stalinist rule was nearly impossible for prisoners. For victims of Stalinism‚ exercising resistance endangered their lives‚ and for those under Hitler’s regime‚ exerting their will against the Nazi was rarely even considered. As part of Solzhenitsyn depiction of life as a prisoner‚ he explains the potential dangers of engaging in acts of resistance against the Stalinist government by stating “it was safer to keep dynamite during the rule of

It might be said In both David Malouf’s novel ‘An Imaginary Life’ and William Wordsworth’s poems‚ it is palpable how diverse times and cultures influence the significance of the association humanity can have with the natural world. There are four key techniques which are portrayed by both writers‚ portraying of characters‚ symbolism‚ imagery and concern; these techniques are presented through themes. The portraying of characters is shown through the theme of finding oneself in nature‚ symbolism

Reflection on Eisner In this article‚ Eisner says that “the mind is conceived of as a collection of relatively independent faculties and aptitudes. I completely agree with this statement‚ the only thing that I have against it is that he does not state that these aptitudes are different for everyone. I believe that it is these differences in aptitudes that make everyone think differently. Nobody thinks the same way‚ everyone answers questions differently and that is because of these aptitudes.

History of imaginary numbers I is an imaginary number‚ it is also the only imaginary number. But it wasn’t just created it took a long time to convince mathematicians to accept the new number. Over time I was created. This also includes complex numbers‚ which are numbers that have both real and imaginary numbers and people now use I in everyday math. I was created because everyone needed it. At first the square root of a negative number was thought to be impossible. However‚ mathematicians soon

Once upon a time‚ in the imaginary land of numbers… Yes‚ numbers! I bet that would’ve never come to mind. Which brings me to the question: Who thought of them and why? In 50 A.D.‚ Heron of Alexandria studied the volume of an impossible part of a pyramid. He had to find √(81-114) which‚ back then‚ was insolvable. Heron soon gave up. For a very long time‚ negative radicals were simply deemed “impossible”. In the 1500’s‚ some speculation began to arise again over the square root of negative numbers

Lucius is now standing in front of Commodus‚ Commodus arms affectionately holding the boy close. COMMODUS He insists you are Hector reborn‚ or was it Hercules?

In what sense is this a ‘winner-takes-all’ industry? A “winner-takes-all” market refers to a market that is dominated by a single supplier and is subject to significant network externalities. Network externality in simplest terms is the value of a product to an individual customer that is affected and dependant on the number of other users of that product. Thoroughly assessing the case study we came up with the conclusion that the notion behind the market being considered a “winner-takes-all” market

- Now‚ I’d just like to say that no other art form has had quite the impact on our lives that the motion pictures have. Cinema is one of the best types of art and cinematography is considered to be one of the rare wonders. To many people in the twentieth century that was the golden age of the cinema. - Yes‚ I agree entirely here. Indeed‚ the movies are truly an art of our time — they were born and have come of age in the twentieth century‚ and they now demand the serious consideration given to

and imaginary part. The imaginary part is a multiple of i (where i =[pic] ). We often use the letter ‘z’ to represent a complex number eg. z = 3 +5i The conjugate of z is written as z* or [pic] If z1 = a + bi then the conjugate of z (z* ) = a – bi Similarly if z2 = x – yi then the conjugate z2* = x + yi z z* will always be real (as i2 = -1) For two expressions containing complex numbers to be equal‚ both the real parts must be equal and the imaginary parts
