TroyLeeDesings for making me look pretty, Carbon Energized for the underwear and M-Line to let me sleep like a princess. Also thanks to Meybo, BOX, Tioga and HT components to get the best bike out there. And Bas with the Dutch National Team for that one step I needed to get myself racing between the very best. Verlu BMX team for their help in 2013 to 2016 and Martijn Jaspers in that same period for writing my program. Thanks to: Of course I have to start with my parents, driving me to practice and races when I was still a kid. Last year's afterparty was great as well ?ĭave van der Burg: The guys at Meybo are working hard like always to get us the new 2019 bike ready for Argentina, so hopefully we’ll be racing with new bikes! K eep an eye on my Instagram to see which colours we’ll be racing with! No matter where you’re from, they’ll be asking for your signature and a picture and that’s really cool. What's the best part about racing in Santiago del Estero?ĭave van der Burg: There’s always something spec ial about racing in SDE, the crowd really enjoys the racing. How many places do you think you can move up in this year's UCI World Cup ranking after the last two rounds in Argentina?ĭave van der Burg: If I can make 2 mains I will gain a few spots but like I said in the previous question, since I missed 2 rounds it puts me way back in the ranking. So I mainly focused on the World Championship and the upcoming World Cups in Argentina. Which sometimes sucks, but when you get a good result, it’s all worth it.ĭo you enjoy traveling to BMX races all over the world?ĭave van der Burg: For sure! Too bad often we don’t see more of the country then the trip from the airport to the hotel and from the hotel to the track.Īre you satisfied with the World Cup position you're in at the moment?ĭave van der Burg: I didn’t race the first 2 World Cups in Paris at the beginning of the season due to a knee injury so I knew I wouldn’t have a chance for fighting for the overall win like last year. We train 6 days a week, Monday to Saturday so we don’t have much time left to hang out with friends or family. Since last year November I live at the center in Arnhem. What are some of the sacrifices you have to make to get there?ĭave van der Burg: Blood, sweat and tears. In this sport it is the biggest event so that is the ultimate goal. How badly do you want to go to Tokyo for the Olympic Games in 2020?ĭave van der Burg: You never know but I think I’ll be too old for Paris 2024 so my biggest chance to bring home a medal is in Tokyo. Then Bas asked me to join the National team in 2016 so the goal was indeed the Olympics in Tokyo. Has peaking after 1 September been something you aimed for?ĭave van der Burg: Well I aimed at Rio first, quit my job as a carpenter to fully focus on BMX and unfortunately didn’t qualify. Are you looking for races where you can score more points?ĭave van der Burg: We’ll be racing the UCI World Cups, some C1 races and the Championship races as we can score the most points at those races.

It's impossible to call something the (blank) version of (blank) when what you're comparing it to was made first. We have talked about the main difference between domo and arigatou and although this is the case, there are still many ways to show your gratitude in Japanese! We will list down a few other words/phrases that can help express your thanks or gratitude to someone, depending on the situation.See, the first thing I noticed about the alleged review on the main page, are the words: "70's version of "Lost In Translation". Again, its usage should still be outside of your workplace because acting too friendly with your colleagues can still show signs of unprofessionalism and might even fall under being きもい (kimoi: gross)! If you would like to express your gratitude to someone in a more eloquent but not super formal way, the best way is to say ”ありがとうございます”( arigatou gozaimasu) instead. It can be used with friends, family, strangers, and even a few close colleagues. Although not recommended to use within the workplace, this word by itself is still considered a more formal compared to Domo and can be used to people you may not know but become in contact with. This word actually does mean “thank you”, but in a casual and simple way. Stick to using it within your close social circle! Arigatou If used in a work setting to a colleague or someone of a higher position, this could be a sign of disrespect and unprofessionalism. It somehow has the connotation of “thanks” in a nonchalant, very casual way that is meant to be used with very close friends or family members. By itself however, it’s actually quite a casual word that is used more often by men compared to women. In other situations however, they should be used with a bit of caution.ĭomo in itself is an ad verb used similarly to “very” in a formal way. In an informal/casual situation, they technically have a similar form of formality and can be used freely. Let’s get down to business and talk about the difference between the two words. In the kokugo dictionary or Japanese dictionary, “arigatashi” means “something rare” and eventually ended up meaning “thankful”. The kanji consists of two main characters 有る(ある:aru) which means to exist or to be, and 難い(かたい:katai) which means hard or difficult. The phrase itself is spelled as 有難うございます or “ Arigatou gozaimasu” with kanji characters. Hopefully, we can discuss this through this short article.įirstly, let’s take a look at the kanji, arigatou gozaimasu is usually spelled out using hiragana but it does, in fact, have kanji characters in it which can help us with understanding it better. This can be applied to when you are showing your appreciation to someone by thanking them, but which form should be used in what situation with what type of people? This is quite important information because of how this can definitely have an effect on how people see you and your relationships with Japanese people as well. There are three main politeness levels namely the plain polite form (くだけた: kudaketa), the polite form (ていねい: teinei), and the advanced polite form (けいご: keigo). Japanese students are aware of the three main politeness levels in Japanese and how their usage depends on who you are talking to. Similarly to English, there are informal, formal, and business versions of almost any Japanese phrase you can think of. For people who have been exposed to many Japanese people, paying a bit more attention to the way Japanese people speak depending or who they’re talking to can make a world of a difference when it comes to honing your sensitivity to the different forms of Japanese. Luckily, most people in Japan are both and are very respectful at the same time. There is a very big difference between being polite and being kind. People who have been to Japan know how polite Japanese people are, especially to foreigners.

Shepherd looks at everyday life and finds God's fingerprints everywhere. Development of vehicle mounted ground stations of tethered drones and capabilities to have live feed with almost zero lag on ground stations is allowing nations to enter long term business acquisition and maintenance contract of tethered drones. The usage of drones for search and rescue operations is one of the major factors supporting business opportunities within the military segment. Such innovations will support business opportunities on personal and recreational industry where longer operational hours are needed. Companies like Elistair is providing tethered stations that can be integrated with any drone, allowing drone to increase its operational time. Direct link between ground station and drone allows it to have unlimited power supply and complex communication capabilities, allowing them to be used in applications such as surveillance, communication, live steaming, search and rescue among others.įactors such as advancement in electrical and cable components enabling light weight cables supporting long operating distances through cables, possibilities of continuous operations through power supply, increased up link and downlink capabilities, versatility towards mode of operations and efforts taken by industry players to provide commercial off the shelf stations to cater wider audience is driving the market. The tethered stations can be utilized to create direct communication links, increase total flight time, provide continuous power, and perform tasks associated to tethering. An actual tethered drone system is made up of a base station/power station, a drone tether, and the drone itself, which is tethered to the power station. The global tethered drone market size was valued at $257.3 million in 2021, and is projected to reach $404.9 million by 2031, growing at a CAGR of 4.9% from 2022 to 2031.Ī drone that is physically tied to a ground station is an unmanned aircraft. Mass of crucible after the reaction - 76. Mass of crucible with lithium before reaction - 75.500 g Given the experimental data in the table below, what is the empirical formula of lithium nitride? The molar mass of lithium is 6.94 g/mol and that of nitrogen is 14.01 g/mol. Use this as a conversion factor to get 1.596g CuSO4 100 g CuSO4 5H2O 63.92g CuSO4 2. To avoid oxide formation, the reaction is performed under pure nitrogen gas. 159.61g mol1 (159.61 + 5 × 18.015)g mol1 × 100 63.92 CuSO4 This tells you that for every 100 g of copper (II) sulfate pentahydrate, you get 63.92 g of anhydrous copper (II) sulfate. Experiment 2: What was the identity of the precipitate that formed upon the addition of NaOH? Copper hydroxide Lithium is the only metal that reacts with nitrogen gas at room temperature to form lithium nitride. Given that argon is relatively inert, which of the following would you expect if you were to heat pure copper in the presence of argon gas? Copper oxide would not form and the mass would not change. 0.1001 moles Suppose you were to heat the copper in argon gas instead of atmospheric gases. For best accuracy, use the mass measured with the balance during the experiment. How many moles of copper (II) sulfate pentahydrate were used in the reaction? The molar mass of copper (II) sulfate pentahydrate is 249.68 g/mol. 25.000 g What happened when NaOH was added to the copper (II) sulfate pentahydrate solution? A blue precipitate formed. Choose the answer that is closest to yours. Experiment 2: What color was the copper (II) sulfate pentahydrate before heating? Blue How many grams of copper (II) sulfate pentahydrate were added to the beaker? Note: The amount of materials dispensed can vary. |
