Nowadays the amount of energy we use varies inversely to the environmental impact on our planet. And the consequence of overusing the energy may be not so positive. We have to do the actions towards to create more sustainable environment. In order to help our planet to survive the actions should be done in individual‚ local‚ national‚ and international levels. First of all‚ the sustainable development of our earth is started from the least. Consequently every human in this world should ask himself

Romar M. Cabinta EXERCISES 15 WORK‚ ENERGY‚ AND POWER A. CONCEPTUAL QUESTIONS 1. Is work done when you move a book from the top of the desk to the floor? Why? Yes. It is because the displacement of the book from the top of the desk to the floor and the force that is applied to the book is parallel with one another. 2. State the law of Conservation of Mechanical Energy in two ways? The law of conservation of energy states that energy may neither be created nor destroyed.

ENERGY RESOURCE PLAN Conserving energy is important to our society because it can extend the life time of non-renewable resources. Examples of these are oils‚ coal ‚ and gas. It also minimizes the use of larger more dangerous and environmentally damaging sources ‚such as deep sea oil and tar deposits. Currently the world produces 20 million barrels of oil each year. One-third of that is used by the United Sates. Concidering that only %35 of an oil well can be recoverd one-third is a lot to consume

is adequate) we require all the supply to be used – even if it is not all needed. This results in higher than necessary costs. In part b‚ assuming supply is adequate to meet demand (when‚ in fact‚ it is) resulted in a smaller total cost as this solution does not require all the supply to be used. d. The shortage on print stock pulp can be reduced to 4 units (without sacrificing newspaper or packing paper pulp) at an additional cost of $307. 4.

Lab #7: Thermal Energy Heat is thermal energy being transferred from one place to another‚ because of temperature changes. This can take place by three processes. These three processes are known as conduction‚ convection‚ and radiation. When we place two objects with different temperatures in contact with each other‚ the heat from the hotter object will immediately and automatically flow to the colder object. This is known as conduction. Some objects make excellent conductors of heat while

Heat Heat is the transfer of energy from a hot object to a colder object‚ such as when toasting a slice of bread. The heat transfers onto the slice of bread which results in warm toast. When the slice of bread is heated‚ many things change; for example‚ the texture turns crunchy‚ the bread hardens‚ and the colour darkens. Where does the toast get its heat from? The toaster. Toaster A toaster is an electric small appliance designed to toast sliced bread by exposing it to heat. When a slice of bread

Can alternative energy effectively replace with fossil fuels? ‘’Fossil fuels are coal‚ natural gas and petroleum.’’ (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fossil_fuel) They are all organic residues. People use this for their energy‚ fuel and heating requirements. But fossil fuels polluting environment so much and people started to think about using alternative energy for their environment’s healthy. ‘’These alternative energy resources are windy power‚ solar energy and geothermal energy.‘’ (http://en

How does my wind generator work? Every wind generator‚ whether they produce enough energy to power a city or to power a small radio‚ works on these same basic principles... 1. The wind blows 2. The generator’s vane (tail) causes it to turn into the wind 3. Blades attached to an alternator/generator experience the force of lift and begin to spin 4. The spinning creates electricity for us to use directly or to charge batteries Sounds pretty simple eh? Well‚ then how the heck do I build one
