1. There are five types of fog to be found. There
is radiation fog which is the cooling of air to
dew point by longwave radiation loss and is
considered to be a diabetic process (involving the

develops when the loss of longwave radiation
during the night causes cooling to the dew point.

One of the first things that happens after death
is that the temperature in the body starts to
drop. Before the temperature in the body core
drops, a temperature gradient must be established
from the outside to the core. After this gradient
has become established the body temperature will
drop with a theoretically predictably rate. This
fact can be used to estimate time of death. Even
if one succeeds in predicting when the temperature
of the body core was 37 degrees Celsius, one has
to remember ...

Rochester And Jane Fire And Water
1,950 words
Critics such as Adrienne Rich argue that Jane Eyre
has to choose between the "temptation" of
following the rule of passion by marrying
Rochester, which would have made her dependent on
him and not his equal, or of living a life of
complete renunciation of all passions, by marrying
St John Rivers. Fire and water imagery symbolizes
the two forces competing for dominance in Jane
Eyre, both on a personal and metaphorical level.
Throughout the novel, such imagery is used by
Bront, in keeping with her...

The life that could be lived in a village at 1861,
which was so near of the time of the Industrial
