The Lord’s Resistance Army‚ or LRA‚ is a rebel group run in central Africa by Joseph Kony. The LRA originated in Northern Uganda in 1980 as a religious movement called the Holy Spirit Movement‚ which was led by Alice Lakwena‚ who claimed that God had told her to overthrow the Ugandan government. (www.warchild.org.uk/issues/the-lords-resistance-army) The Ugandan government had been‚ at the time of the order‚ treating the Acholi people of the North unfairly. The movement quickly drew large amounts

Physics Coursework- Ohm’s Law Aim: To investigate the factors of affecting the resistance of a wire. In this experiment I will be using a metal nichrome wire to show the resistance when the length and width is changed. Variables Variables that I am going to keep the same. Variables that I am going to change. Width- 0.36mm2 Material- Nichrome wire Voltage- 2V Temperature- Room Temperature Length- 10cm‚ 20 cm‚ 30cm‚ 40cm‚ 50cm Material- Nichrome Length- 50cm Voltage- 2V Temperature- Room

V=W/Q is often remembered wrongly. In questions where you have to check the resistance from the graph see what is plotted along the x and y axis. Reason why alloys are used to make elements of electric irons and heaters is not because they are insulators. 2. Units 3. 4. Formula Graphs 5. Resistivity 6. Change in resistance If a wire is folded(doubled on it) and made half its length‚ then the resistance does not become half. 7. Resistors in series Is the current or

Data Analysis The investigation I did was to find the resistance of a piece if wire. The piece of wire is my dependent variable throughout the investigation. I changed the length of the wire in order to measure the resistance of each length. Plan In this investigation‚ a simple circuit will be set up to read the voltage and current when the length of the wire changes. The length will range from 10cm-80cm with intervals of 10cm. The length of the wire will be changed by moving the crocodile clip

Peaceful resistance to laws is essential in the progress of a free society and promotes responsibility among citizens to uphold their rights and beliefs. In many instances where desired civil‚ reproductive‚ or other rights are in question‚ the legal route of seeking change in our laws has been unproductive or seemingly impossible. This frustration is beyond an American dilemma or a 19th century issue‚ but rather spans many forms of government over time. It has been and will always be the duty of

organized society. In a well-crafted essay‚ Cesar Chavez develops an argument about nonviolent resistance as a mean to achieve equality and respect in society. Chavez argues for this strategy by using historical references‚ logical fallacies‚ and examples. Chavez starts the passage with a reference to Martin Luther King Jr and how his life was a prime example of positive working nonviolent resistance that resulted in civil rights for millions. This segues in to Chavez’s current situation of farm

The method of using Non-violent peaceful resistance along with the method of employing violence in the form of self-defense were both strategies used in the fight for Civil Rights from 1954-1977 during the Civil Rights Movement and the Black Power Movement. Some people supported the use of violence if necessary while others supported the use of nonviolent resistant. Both factions gained considerable ground alone and together. The decision on what method to use should depend on the situation at hand

people buy into them very quickly and easily. Other changes are met with resistance. If not handled properly‚ this resistance to the change can overcome the change agent thus rendering the desired change impossible to accomplish. Change Agents Contributions to Change Resistance As a change agent‚ one’s desire is implement the desired change. Behavior of the change agent can sometimes however lead to increased resistance to change. These contributions include “breaking agreements and violating
