AGD 201: GENDER AND DEVELOPMENT THEORIES
Trending!
Sex and Gender: Sex refers to the biological characteristics that categorize someone as either female or male; Gender refers to the socially determined ideas, roles and practices of what is expected of male or female. These ideas and roles are assigned by cultural beliefs of a community. Culture: This is distinctive patterns of ideas, beliefs, and norms which characterize the way of life and relations of society. We already said that culture defines the roles of men and women. This brings about gender stereotypes. For example we normally assume that women cannot be leaders or cannot initiate development for the family, only men can. This is a stereotype because there are many cases where women are actually the breadwinners of their families. Men cannot be good in child caring, another stereotype which prevents men from childcare duties even if they might be good at it. Another way to understand these concepts is to know the meaning of patriarchy; systemic societal structures that institutionalize male physical, social and economic power over women. That is why it is important to understand the concept of power relations; the hierarchical power between men and women that tend to disadvantage women.

SOCIOLOGY
Sociology is the study of groups and group interactions, societies and social interactions, from small and personal groups to very large groups. A group of people who live in a defined
geographic area, who interact with one another and who share a common culture is what sociologists call a society. Sociologists study all aspects and levels of society. Sociologists
working from the micro-level study small groups and individual interactions, while those using macro-level analysis look at trends among and between large groups and societies. For
example, a micro-level study might look at the accepted rules of conversation in various groups such as among teenagers or business professionals. In contrast, a macro-level analysis
might research the ways that language use has changed over time or in social media outlets.

SCH 403: PHASE EQUILIBRIA
Trending!
At equilibrium a system composed of several phases is governed by the phase rule:
F = C – P + 2
F is the number of degrees of freedom, it is the least number of intensive variables that must
be fixed/known to describe the system completely. C is the number of components and P is the
number of phases present. The number of components is the smallest number of constituents by which the composition of each phase in the system at equilibrium can be expressed in the form of a chemical formula or equation.

While solving the problems in dynamics, one must take account of the constraints that limit the motion of the system.
Examples
(i) In rigid bodies, constraints keep distance between the particles unchanged.
(ii) The beads of an abacus are constrained to one dimensional motion by the supporting wires.
(iii) Gas molecules in a container are constrained by the walls of the vessel to move only inside the container.
(iv) A particle placed on the surface of a solid body is subject to the constraint that it can move only on the surface or in the region exterior to the body.
