Secondary 2 Geography-Importance Of Transport And Communication
Transport and communications help increase accessibility and connectivity between people by reducing distance barriers. This allows for faster movement of materials, people, ideas, and decisions. While globalization facilitated by improved transport and communication brings economic and cultural exchange, it also risks spreading disease and reducing linguistic diversity as English becomes more dominant.
Sec 2 Unit 8 transport and communications
This document provides an overview of transport and communications. It identifies various modes of transport including air, land, and sea transport. It describes improvements in speed and passenger transport over time due to technological advances. For example, planes can now travel at 300km/hr while trains have reached speeds of 200km/hr. The document also discusses how improvements in transport infrastructure and technology have increased accessibility and connectivity between places. This has contributed to a "shrinking world" where physical distances can be covered much more quickly through modern transport and communications systems.
Transport and communication
Transport includes movement of people and goods using vehicles, animals, or humans. Modes of transport include land, water, and air. Land transport includes roads, railways, and pipelines. Important global highways connect cities across continents, while rail networks vary in gauge between countries. Water transport via oceans and inland waterways is efficient for bulk cargo over long distances. Notable shipping routes circle the globe. Air transport is fastest but most expensive, with key intercontinental routes connecting major cities by air. Pipelines efficiently transport liquids and gases. Communications have advanced with satellites and internet now connecting the world digitally.

Upper Secondary Chemistry-Rust
Acids and salts speed up the rate of rusting by increasing the concentration of ions, allowing more ion movement which causes iron to lose electrons faster and form iron oxide. Rusting can be prevented by applying a barrier like paint, oil, grease or electroplating between the metal and oxygen/water. Electroplating involves placing the plating metal as the anode and the metal to be plated as the cathode in an electrolyte solution. Common metals used for plating include tin, silver, nickel, chromium, zinc and gold.

Secondary 2 History-Singapore Tackling Challenges of Defense and Security
This document discusses Singapore's challenges with defense and security after gaining independence from Britain in 1971. It outlines how Singapore lacked experience building a strong military and faced a lack of public support for national service. To address these issues, the government established the Ministry of Interior and Defense, passed legislation in 1967 requiring all men to complete national service, and set up training programs and community outreach to gain support. These efforts helped Singapore develop the citizen's army model and strengthen its defense capabilities through cooperation with foreign partners.
Secondary 2 Geography-Measures to Reduce Ozone Depletion
The document outlines individual, national, and international efforts to reduce ozone depletion. It recommends that individuals avoid chlorofluorocarbon products, governments ban chlorofluorocarbon and encourage alternatives, and internationally the 1987 Montreal Protocol aimed to reduce then eliminate chlorofluorocarbon use by 2000 as agreed by the US and Europe.
Secondary 2 Geography-Ozone Depletion
The document discusses ozone depletion and its causes and consequences. It explains that ozone in the stratosphere protects the Earth from ultraviolet radiation, but chlorofluorocarbons released into the atmosphere break down into chlorine which destroys ozone molecules. This causes the ozone layer to thin, leaving it unable to fully screen ultraviolet rays. If the ozone layer is depleted faster than it can recover, an "ozone hole" forms. The thinning ozone allows more ultraviolet radiation to reach the Earth's surface, increasing health and environmental risks like skin cancer and disruption of marine and terrestrial ecosystems.
Secondary 2 Geography-Global Warming
Global warming is caused by increases in greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide, and chlorofluorocarbons being released into the atmosphere from human activities like burning fossil fuels and deforestation. This has led to a 0.5°C increase in average global temperatures over the past 100 years. Consequences of global warming include rising sea levels from melting ice caps which threatens coastal populations, increased transmission of infectious diseases by insects, mass extinction of animal species unable to adapt, and disruption of weather patterns causing more extreme events like droughts and heat waves.
Secondary 2 History-Singapore Separating From Malaysia
Singapore separated from Malaysia in 1965 for both economic and political reasons. Economically, Malaysia imposed tariffs on Singapore's goods and treated Singapore as an economic rival. Politically, the two countries had different approaches to forming political parties along racial lines versus being multiracial. Racial tensions rose and riots broke out in 1964. The Prime Minister of Malaysia decided that separation was the best solution to prevent further conflict. On August 9, 1965, Lee Kuan Yew announced that Singapore had gained independence after separating from Malaysia.
