civilization to which everyone is doomed.

international body that votes in favor of a resolution entitled Necessity of ending
the economic, commercial and financial embargo imposed by the United States
against Cuba. Despite international pressure and the damage caused to the
Cuban people, the United States continues to justify its policy by putting the
existence of numerous allegations of violations of human rights on the island.
Physical
Simple harmonic
motion
also called simple harmonic vibratory motion (more) is a periodic motion, and
vibration in the absence of friction produced by the action of a restoring force
which is directly proportional to position, and which is described in function of
time by a sine function (sine or cosine). If the description of a movement
requiriese over a harmonic function in general would be a harmonic motion, but
no more
In the event that the trajectory is rectilinear, the particle hits a more oscillates
toward and away from one point located in the center of the path, so that its
position versus time with respect to that point is a sinusoid. In this movement,
the force acting on the particle is proportional to its displacement from said point
and directed towards it.

Concave angle

It is the angle of the plane between two rays that have the same point of origin or
vrtice.1 often measured in units such as the radian, degree sexagesimal or
hundredth degree.
They can be defined on flat surfaces (plane trigonometry) or curved (spherical
trigonometry). It is called the dihedral angle space between two half-planes whose
common origin is a line. A solid angle is covering an object seen from a given point,
measuring its apparent size.
There are two common ways to make an angle:
1. giving name, usually as a lowercase letter b, or sometimes as a Greek letter
(alpha) or (theta)
2. or three letters that define the angle, placing the letter where it is (its vertex) in
the middle.
Example: the angle "a" is "BAC" and the angle "" is "BCD"

Legend
A legend is a narrative of natural, mixed or supernatural events, which is
transmitted from generation to generation orally or in writing. Generally, the
story is set in an imprecise way between myth and true event, which gives a
certain uniqueness.
It is located in a time and place that are familiar to members of a community,
which gives the story some verisimilitude. In the legends who have supernatural
elements such as miracles, presence of ferric or otherworldly creatures, etc.,
these are presented as real, they are part of the vision of the world community
itself where the legend originates. In the process of transmission through oral
tradition legends often they experience deletions, additions or modifications that
express a strange state, thus resulting in a world full of variants

* Place and fixed space
* Fluctuating Weather
* Presents symbolic elements
* They are marked by a destiny that will be fulfilled
* Spaces usually natural because they have a phenomenon that already exists (a
pond, a tree, etc.
QUIMCA
Benzene is an aromatic hydrocarbon of molecular formula C6H6 (originally to it and its
derivatives is termed aromatic compounds because they possess the characteristic
shape). In benzene each carbon atom occupies the apex of a regular hexagon,
apparently three of the four valencies of the carbon atoms are used to join adjacent
carbon atoms together, and the fourth valency with a hydrogen atom. According to
modern theories about chemical bonds, three of the four electrons in the valence shell
of the carbon atom they are used directly to form the typical covalent bonds (2C-C and
CH) and the fourth is shared with the other five carbon atoms, obtaining what is called
"cloud (pi)" contained in six different orbital electrons. Benzene is a colorless and
highly flammable liquid with a sweet smell (which must be handled carefully because
of its carcinogenic nature), with a relatively high boiling point.
