The Function of a Crystal Radio What is the first thing that comes into your mind when you think about the function of the radio? Is the first thing that pops into your mind the word ‘magic’? Despite the fact that it seems like it is magical and comes out of the air‚ radio and the use of the radio is very scientific. When broken down and analyzed‚ the function of the radio is more scientific than magical. The miraculous way that you can send out invisible information through thin air and can

Pesos are used in most other countries. As of October 15‚ 2011‚ one US dollar was equivalent to 0.7749 Euros. A linear equation of a function‚ E‚ which converts US dollars (D) to Euros (E) would be E = 0.7749D You would just put the number of dollars in for "D" and multiply by 0.7749 and this will give you the number of Euros you would get for your US dollars. This is a "real world application" of a linear function. Cell Phones Just about everyone has a cell phone‚ and most rate plans are a linear

I discussed after class some ideas as to how to go about building the Bond Price function. This is problem 4 of the first homework assignment. There are three functions that have to be built. This is stated in the problem. The three functions are a function to calculate the present value interest factor for a single value. The second function returns a calculation of the present value interest factor of an annuity. The third function utilizes the first two functions in calculating the fair value of a bond‚ and returns the fair value or the theoretical price of the

These structures include the mesencephalon‚ metencephalon‚ myelencephalon (or medulla)‚ telencephalon‚ and diecephalon. All of these brain structures contribute different functions within the human body. The brain’s first structure is the myelencephalon‚ which is also called the medulla. The myelencephalon is known as the most posterior part of the brain. The structure of the myelencephalon is made up of bundles of axons called tracts. These tracts carry signals between the rest of the body and

Animals with radial symmetry function differently than animals with bilateral symmetry. Unlike animals with bilateral symmetry‚ these organisms use their appendages‚ usually tentacles‚ to bring in food to its mouth‚ which is located at its center. Also‚ animals with radial symmetry have less complicated systems than animals with bilateral symmetry. The radial symmetry body plan involves appendages radiating out from the center of the organism‚ this means that most systems are not included in these

Lipids are made up of carbon‚ hydrogen and oxygen (phospholipids also contain phosphate) and are found in a wide variety of organisms from bacteria to eukaryotes where they perform a wide variety of useful functions. This essay will expand on these functions to describe the role of lipids. There are several types of lipid including triglycerides‚ steroids‚ waxes and phospholipids. Triglycerides are made up of three fatty acids combined with glycerol by an ester linkage meaning they are predominantly

problem is one that seeks to maximize an objective function subject to constraints. If both the objective function and the constraints are linear‚ the problem is referred to as a linear programming problem. 2. Linear functions are functions in which each variable appears in a separate term raised to the first power and is multiplied by a constant (which could be 0). 3. Linear constraints are linear functions that are restricted to be "less than or equal to"‚
