Diameter of a Circle

Diameter of a Circle Diameter of a circle is defined as the longest chord or line joining the two points of a circle but most important point is that it shall pass through the center of circle. In a circle there can be infinite number of diameters. Its relation with radius is that it is twice the radius of circle. It is also useful in calculating area and circumference of circle by the following formulas:- Circumference of circle = pie * d Area of circle = pie * (d/2) ^2 This can be more clarified by taking some suitable examples. Problem 1: Find the diameter of circle by first finding the radius of circle when circumference of circle is 44/7cm. Solution: Given Circumference of circle = 44/7 cm and Let r is radius of circle. = We know that in terms of radius, the circumference of circle = 2* pie*r = Therefore, 44/7 = 2 * 22/7 * r = So r = (44/7)/ 44/7 = 1 cm = Hence diameter of circle = 2* r = 2* 1 = 2 cm. Problem 2: Find the diameter by Pie* diameter formula if the Circumference of the circle is 2200. Solution: Given Circumference of the circle = 2200 cm = By Pie* diameter formula of circumference, = We have, Circumference of circle = Pie*diameter = 2200 = 22/7 * diameter = Therefore, diameter = 2200 *7 /22 = 100* 7 = 700 cm = Therefore the diameter of the circle is 700 cm.

The 12 Essential Chords You Need to Play Country Guitar

The 12 Essential Chords You Need to Play Country Guitar Sign up successful D-G-A-A7-D-G-A-A7-D Remember, mastering the guitar can take years of practice. You don’t have to be the best guitar player in the world when you’re just beginning your journey. When you’re learning chords, memorize the finger placement so you don’t have to refer back to the diagrams. Playing a series of chords in a progression is the most efficient way to memorize chords. Country Music Theory Now let’s look at the basic music theory behind country music. Country music uses a lot of major guitar chords. It also uses the dominant 7th chords. These chords can be built in any key using any scale with a tiny bit of music theory knowledge. Building Major Chords Major chords are made up of three notes: the tonic, third, and fifth interval. These three notes are pulled directly from the scale of the chord that you are playing. Let’s look at the C major chord as an example. The C major scale is C(1)-D(2)-E(3)-F(4)-G(5)-A(6)-B(7)-C(8). It consists of natural notes (no sharps or flats). To build the major chord, take the first, third, and fifth notes from the C major scale (C-E-G). Here’s another example with the D major chord. The D major scale is D(1)-E(2)-F#(3)-G(4)-A(5)-B(6)-C#(7)-D(8). Take the first, third, and the fifth notes, which are D, F#, and A. Building the dominant 7th chord is just as simple as building a major chord, but we add one more step to the process. First, take the first, third, and fifth notes from the desired scale. The next step is to take the seventh note from the desired scale. For the D dom7 chord, use the D major scale (D-E-F#-G-A-B-C#-D). Use the first, third, fifth, and now, the seventh note. This gives you D-F#-A-C#. For a minor chord, take the first, third, and fifth notes from the scale, but this time, use the minor scale rather than the major scale. Try this with the C minor chord. The C minor scale is C-D-D#-F-G-A-A#-C. When you pull the first, third, and fifth notes, you get C-Eb-G. This process is a lot easier when you memorize the major and minor scales. Remember the steps: W-W-H-W-W-W-H for the major scale, and W-H-W-W-H-W-W for the minor scale. If you want to play and build a progression, select three or four of the 12 essential   chords, and make up a progression or sequence. You can make up tons of different progressions with the 12 essential chords. Playing these progressions will help you transition from chord to chord. You can use any rhythm when you play. When you practice, you should focus on making smooth transitions (no gaps or hesitation) from one chord to the next. Start out slow, and then pick up the tempo. Build Your Own Progressions I will use E major to show you how to build your own progression. Use the E major scale, lift the tonic (E), third (G#), fifth (B), and the seventh note (D#). When you build a major triad over these four notes, you get the four chords of the I-III-V-Vii chord progression. This rule will work for any chord progression you want to build. There are hundreds of songs out there that use the 12 essential country guitar chords. Alan Jackson’s song Drive”uses G,D, and C, and repeats the G-D-C-C  pattern for the majority of the song. Check Yes or No, by George Strait, uses a I-IV-V chord progression in the key of D. The D-G-A pattern repeats throughout the song. Now that you know the essential country guitar chords and the history behind them, it’s time to start practicing. You can use these  classic country songs  to practice the chords and perfect your technique. Need some help perfecting your country guitar skills?

Why You Should Always Listen to the Quiet Ones - Introvert Whisperer

Introvert Whisperer / Why You Should Always Listen to the Quiet Ones - Introvert Whisperer Why You Should Always Listen to the Quiet Ones Not everyone can be supremely confident in meetings or group discussions, but employers would be wise to listen to the quiet ones.   You’ll often find that those who shout loudest in the workplace are sometimes the ones with the least to say, while those who keep their peace will almost always bring something valuable to the conversation. Rather than give the floor to the most vocal individuals in the room, here is why employers should give the quiet ones more room to talk. Dominating meetings   We’ve all sat in meetings where people keep talking over one another, or voices get louder and louder as the discussion becomes more heated.   The most vocal people can generate a lot of heat and not much light, so determined to get their contribution heard that they completely switch off from what everyone else is saying. No meeting can progress if there’s too much voice-raising and not enough  listening, and therefore useful  debate.   If those in charge of the meeting want to make some real headway, the best course of action is to take charge, tell certain people to pipe down and maybe invite the quieter ones in the room to chip in.   Giving them a platform will encourage them to speak up if they do have a worthwhile contribution, but they’ll also know to pass the baton back if they have nothing to add. A way to get everyone in the room contributing is to go round the group, inviting people to share ideas and suggestions one at a time.  Some individuals dont like to be put on the spot, which is why its best to  inform  those contributing in the meeting beforehand to come prepared. Thoughtful Contributions Chances are that while everyone else is speaking, the quiet ones are mulling things over and will have something genuinely useful to contribute if and when they get the chance.   People who are too quick to jump in and have their say seldom offer up fully-formed ideas â€" if you’re too quick to open your mouth, what tumbles out is rarely worth hearing. That means that when the quiet ones do chip in, they really can have words of wisdom to impart.   You might spot them taking notes, which can be a good sign that it’s time to invite them to take the floor.   Never push someone to join in if they’re clearly not comfortable with the situation, but also don’t mistake shyness for disinterest.   They’re usually the most engaged people in the team. Time and Space Quieter team members aren’t always the strongest verbal communicators, but you’ll probably find they more than make up for that through the written word.   Inviting people to drop you an email if they have any more ideas after the meeting can be the quickest way to hear what the quieter ones are actually thinking, and their thoughts are just as valuable for being written down as they would be spoken out loud. Writing things down instead of speaking up also gives them more time to reflect and find the best way to phrase things.   If you get a follow-up email with something really valuable in it, you can always pass it on to the rest of the team.   Check that they don’t mind being credited with the ideas, though, because some people would rather remain under the radar. There’s truth to the saying that still waters run deep.   If you have quieter individuals on your team, be sure to give them the time and space they need to express things in a way they’re most comfortable with.   You’ll often find that those who keep quiet have the most to say.

The Anatomy of Great Online Reputation Management

The Anatomy of Great Online Reputation Management ACT SAT Prep and College Admissions Blog Every tech-savvy student realizes that there’s a ton of information about them online (most of which they’ve posted themselves) and that this information is widely accessible by their peers. Fewer students consider how their online presence will impact their admissions to colleges or to the work-force. And fewer still consider how they can take control of their online presence to ensure a positive impression of them shines through amongst the cluttered returns of a Google search. One organization is working hard to educate and inspire students to assume control over their digital footprint. Cornerstone Reputation, an educational company committed to empowering students to understand the impact of their online presence, has crafted a straightforward virtual workshop that helps students answer the question of what they should be doing to manage their online reputation. Designed to be segmented into a series of homework assignments or classroom sessions, the workshop consists of modules with lessons on: Learning the essentials of online reputation management Getting a personalized Internet domain name Building a customized website Setting up and optimizing primary social media profiles Aligning your privacy settings to match unique personal preferences Performing the technical magic needed to ensure students control what Google finds Getting content creation guidelines, designed to fit into the time students already spend online Each module concludes with a quiz, to ensure that the key points are highlighted and retained by students. The workshop is ideally suited for students in high school and college, and takes approximately two hours to complete. Cornerstone embraces a research-driven approach to the guidance they provide for students. Since 2014, the company has conducted annual surveys of hundreds of college admissions officers and athletic recruiters to learn first-hand how these gatekeepers make decisions based on their online research of student applicants. Cornerstone’s most-recent survey revealed that almost one quarter of admissions officers believe that having a strong online presence gives an applicant an advantage over other applicants. This indicates a potential opportunity for students who go beyond “sanitizing” their online presence and actively build a positive reputation. Cornerstone’s virtual workshop responds to this data by providing students with the tools and skills to take ownership of their online reputation management.

Does Better Sleep Equal Better Grades

Does Better Sleep Equal Better Grades Improving Academic Performance Just as the energizer bunny must recharge his batteries every now and then, humans must also take time to power down, rest and recharge for the following day. But just how important is it to get a full nights rest? Could getting the right amount of sleep (which for many people nowadays means more sleep) beneficially affect academic performance? Indeed, this is exactly what much of the data shows. In fact, learning, memory and brain development are some of the most important reasons we, as human beings, even need sleep. Sleep deprivation is shown to have deleterious effects on multiple body and organ systems (Aldabal et al., 2011). Studies show that sleep deprivation is the number one factor associatd with poorer academic performance among multiple educational levels from middle school to college students (Pagel et al., 2010). Even more worrisome is the fact that adolescents that reported tiredness and trouble sleeping associated with negative academic performance were likely candidates for drug/alcohol abuse, negative mood, antisocial behavior and feelings of isolation (Pagel et al., 2010). If it’s not surprising that we need more sleep to perform better and feel happier, what is stopping us from getting it? Turns out there are a few simple techniques you can excercise to battle fatigue and increase your quality of sleep that this article will discuss. Technique 1: Stop texting/instant messaging in bed after “lights out”! A new study in the Journal of Child Neurology states that messaging after “lights out” caused students to report shorter sleep duration, higher rate of daytime sleepiness, and poorer academic performance (Grover et al., 2016). It’s no surprise that children and adolescents today are glued to their electronic devices, particularly smartphones. The advent of social media has revolutionized how we interact with the world and our social relationships with our fellow man and woman, boy and girl. However, while we do seem more connected on one hand, recent evidence indicates there may be detrimental aspects to excessive social media use and electronics use in the developing mind. Thus, it is important to disconnect from the digital world upon bedtime and focus on relaxation and sleep. Unlike normal face-to-face conversation, texting leaves things “open ended” making it harder to disengage from a conversation since it’s never really “over”. This may cause increased stress, a nxiety and anticipation at nighttime preventing sleep. Refraining from instant messaging and digital screen exposure at nighttime before bed has been shown to increase the quality and duration of one's sleep (Grover et al., 2016). Technique 2: Listen to relaxing music during bedtime. A 2008 study by Harmat et al., demonstrated that relaxing classical music is an efficacious intervention to reconcile sleep problems such as insomnia and difficulty falling asleep. The study explicitly stated that music can reduce sympathetic nervous system activity, decrease anxiety, blood pressure, heart and respiratory rate and may have positive effects on sleep via muscle relaxation and distraction from thoughts (Harmat et al., 2008). Thus, after you finish texting and decide it's time for bed, try putting on a little Mozart softly in the background to help you drift off to sleep! It’s a much cheaper and safer alternative to taking sleep medications. Technique 3: Mindfulness Meditation There has been a lot of data and talk about the benefits of meditation lately. Indeed, as a long-time practitioner, I can attest anecdotally to its innumerous benefits on the mind and body. However, from a research standpoint, there is much data out now that can be translated and applied to everyone’s daily lives. The practice of mindfulness meditation can be invoked to lower blood pressure, improve the quality of ones sleep, and even reduce inflammation by reducing levels of NF-?B, an inflammation factor in our bodies (Black et al., 2015). To learn more about mindfulness meditation, click here to hear my good friend and fellow neurologist, Dr. Matthew Markert, speak on the Benefits Barriers to Mindfulness in Medicine in which he discusses a few techniques on practicing mindfulness. Technique 4: Melatonin The majority of the advice given in this article was meant to steer one away from taking any sort of medication or pills to promote sleep as to confer long-term benefits and healthy behaviors instead of simply invoking a temporary short-term fix. While there is several medications that can, rather quickly at times, induce sleep, they are ineffective long-term remedies due to the dependence they cause and the side effects they carry. However, there is one natural supplement that has proven its novel use in promoting sleep for decades now, and that supplement is: Melatonin. This supplement has gained a lot of popularity a being a “wonder drug” for the many individual suffering from sleep disorders. It is known that melatonin helps regulate circadian rhythms and promote sleep. Furthermore, it is shown to reduce the onset of sleep in children, which can be very beneficial (Buscemi et al., 2006). Technique 5: Diet; Don’t Eat Right Before Bed! It probably shouldn’t be surprising after reading my last article on nutrition that eating healthy has an effect on our sleep cycle. A 2011 study indicated that consuming food right before bed can have detrimental effects upon sleep quality (Crispim et al., 2011). I suppose this calls into question an old saying my father used to tell me, “after lunch nap a while, after dinner walk a mile!” Perhaps this would be beneficial since lunchtime napping sleep quality probably isn’t as important as sleeping at nighttime (not to mention, unless you’re in Spain, not too many people have time for naps after lunch!) In any case, allowing your food to digest and giving yourself enough time between your last meal and going to sleep may significantly affect sleep quality. There is a widely diverse ocean of data and studies that overwhelmingly support the notion that better sleep equals better grades. Such aspects of diet, nutrition and sleep should be further encouraged in the classroom as a mechanism to promote healthier lifestyles, and consequently, better grades. The data calls for more research on this topic; however, the current database of literature provides various techniques, such as the aforementioned, to improve sleep quality as a method to increase academic performance.

Separable and Nonseparable Phrasal Verbs

Separable and Nonseparable Phrasal Verbs One of the most difficult things about the English language are phrasal verbs. Our English students struggle with phrasal verbs even at the advanced level. So, we will be doing a series of videos to help our students tackle the phrasal verb challenge.This first video is very important, it is about separable and nonseparable verbs. Sometimes we can separate a phrasal verb. For example, you can say both: He put a coat on and He put on a coat.Sometimes we CANNOT separate the verb, for example:  He ran into a friend is ok, but not He ran a friend into. Watch the video to learn why and when to separate phrasal verbs.Try these exercises to see if you understand: take off, put on, or run into1.
