With all of their noise, different colors, and different patterns, fireworks light up the summer sky and put on a fascinating and exciting display. But how do fireworks work ... [Pg.3]

Whether chemical reactions are used to make plastics, diagnose disease, catch criminals, or for entertainment purposes, life would be very different without them. Indeed, without certain chemical reactions, life would not exist at all. When we eat, light a candle, watch a firefly or fireworks light up the summer sky, or engage in any number of other activities, chemical reactions occur. In fact, they are happening all around us—all the time. [Pg.84]

Material Seeds and to a lesser extent all other parts of plant except roots. Strongest varieties are Heavenly Blue, Pearly Gates, Flying Saucers, Wedding Bells, Blue Star, Summer Skies, and Badoh Begro (Mexican variety). [Pg.16]

You sit in your back yard on a warm summer evening watching the red sky (A = 625 nm) at sunset and listening to music from your CD player. The laser in the latter has frequency 3.84 X 1014s-1. [Pg.134]

However, that trip didn t just happen for our family because I waited. The money didn t just fall from the sky, and the trip didn t magically plan itself. That summer, I thought that because I had waited, a good thing happened. Now that I know more about the world, I realize that my parents had to work hard to make that trip happen. First of all, they had to scrimp and save money. They also had to postpone other plans they had, such as buying a new washing machine or a new school wardrobe for me and my sister. Instead of several new outfits, we only got a few new things. My parents worked overtime for most of the summer, and they also had to find inexpensive accommodations and entertainment so that we could afford the trip. [Pg.76]

Inversions tend to inhibit mixing of air below the inversion with that above the inversion. The combination of the Pacific high pressure, tbpograpy and generally clear sky conditions found in the Pacific Northwest during the summer months results in multilevel inversions (e.g. subsidence, marine air, valley and canopy inversions). All of these could affect a particular site. However, the valley and canopy inversions are the most common. These, in combination with slope and valley winds, greatly affect the distribution of particle and gaseous dispersoids. [Pg.187]

Since writing to you I have another letter from him in which he says Rotalo is as completely lost as if I had dropped it into the sea. It may be among one of the bundles that I have put unopened in the loft. At my last removal I became desperate towards the end and tied up papers, catalogues and books indiscriminately. Some bundles are still as they were when we came here last year in summer. As I have sky-lights put into the roof I shall go up one day and have a search for that MS. ... [Pg.102]

Nothing is quite the same here. Summer is from December to March. It is warmer in the North Island and colder in the South Island. The people drive on the left rather than on the right. Even the sky is different—dark blue velvet with stars of the Southern Cross—and the fish love the hooks. [Pg.54]

It was a beautiftil summer evening. As the sun bwered in the sky and swalbws dipped aixi swooped, the atmosphere could almost have been festive, a rare sense of cotimmal unity aixl resolve. But t -one could forget for bng the reason for them being there. And with that came another utpabtable feet. [Pg.24]

After the proper inside and summer outside temperature conditions for comfort and temperature conditions for process air conditioning have been selected, the next step is to calculate the space cooling load, which is made up of sensible heat and latent heat loads. The sensible heat load consists of (1) transmission through walls, roofs, floors, ceilings, and window glass, (2) solar and sky radiation, (3) heat gains from infiltration of outside air, (4) heat gains from people. [Pg.929]
