    Abstract The Physical Layer is the lowest layer of the Open Source Interconnect Model (OSI). It is the layer that deals with all the measurable, physical entities associated with the network. At this layer it is specified how much bandwidth (Baseband or Broadband) will be used in the transmission of data on the network. This layer also includes the physical topology (physical lay out) of the network such as: Bus, Star, Ring or Mesh. The Physical Layer includes these devices: Network Interface

    Asthenosphere: The Asthenosphere is the second physical layer of the Earth, it lies underneath the Lithosphere. The Asthenosphere is made up of matter that that is in the molton or semi-molton state.The average temperature is between 1400 degrees celsius and 3000 degrees celsius. It is 60-155 miles thick. The Asthenosphere is composed mostly of iron and magnesium silicates. It is plastic-like, which allows the Lithosphere to slide across it. The Asthenosphere is a layer of the Mantle composed of slowly-moving

    a seven layered model. The seven layers are : Physical Layer The physical layer defines the electrical, mechanical, procedural, and functional specifications for activating, maintaining, and deactivating the physical link between end systems. Such characteristics as voltage levels, timing of voltage changes, physical data rates, maximum transmission distances, and physical connectors, are defined by physical layer specifications.

    geological layers of vocanic ash and sediment. When a anthropologist finds a fossil in a undistirbed layer of gray ash, you know that it is younger than the fossil in the layer of red ash below, and that fossil is younger than the fossil in the layer of brown ash below it.(Johanson 65) The basic theory here is that a certian site cantians a geolgical column key that is made up of differant strata layers, the fossils get older as they move down the key, and are found in differant layers of strata

    are several traits that link them together. Most cnidarians are dipoblastic, which means that they are composed of only two layers of cells. The outer layer is known as the ectoderm or epidermis, and the inner layer is known as the endoderm or gastrodermis. These layers contain the nerve nets that control the muscular and sensory functions of the animal. Between these layers is a jelly-like noncellular substance known as mesoglea, which in true jellyfish constitute the vast bulk of the animal (hence

Design One design that we discussed consists of a tower with a rectangular base, two layers of rectangular prisms atop that base, and a pentagonal prism on the top of the structure. This design would provide the necessary support at the base and is also easy to make in twenty minutes. However, it would be lacking in height if we were to

  • Aerosol Spray Cans

    596 Words  | 2 Pages

    Aerosol Spray Cans Spray cans produce an aerosol, the technical term for a very fine spray. They do this by means of a pressurized propellant, which is a liquid that boils at everyday temperatures. Inside the can, a layer of gaseous pressure increased, and eventually it becomes so high that boiling stops. when the nozzle is pressed, the gas pressure forces the product up the tube in the can and out of the nozzle in a spray or foam. The propellant may emerge as well but, now under less pressure

The D region has lowest ionization density and is available only during daytime. The ionization density has a peak value around 90 km. It is an absorbing region for radiowaves. The E region is known as the current bearing region. It lies in the range of around 90-125 km. The peak density in this layer is at about 120 km. It contains both
