transportation and deposition. The amount of work a river can do is dependent on the energy it has and this energy is determined by many factors. The study of water flow in a river channel is known as hydraulics. Hydraulic geometry is the study of the relationships that exist within river channels that ultimately determine how much work the river will be able to carry out. Width‚ depth‚ velocity‚ discharge‚ channel width‚ water depth‚ channel bed roughness and slope angle all change as the river travels

WIND ENERGY Long time ago‚ ancient mariners used sails to capture the wind and explore the world. Farmers once used windmills to grind their grains and pump water. Today‚ more and more people are using wind turbines to wring electricity from the breeze. Over the past decade‚ wind turbine use has increased at more than 25 percent a year. Still‚ it only provides a small fraction of the world ’s energy. Therefore‚ wind power or wind energy is the energy extracted from wind using wind turbines to produce electrical

Negative Effects of Nuclear Reactors Hey! have you ever thought about the demand for turning to nuclear energy?and how it can expose all people into danger?. If they we’re to plan building one in your home town what position would you take?. Even though nuclear power is a common trend that has shown a high success rate. We should not build a nuclear power plant in the Bronx because it is too expensive to build‚ it’s not safe and there’s problems that come along with radioactive waste. Over

Energy conservation is a very important part of energy planning and its management. It not only saves energy resources for future‚ avoids wasteful utilisation of energy‚ provides solution to energy crisis and ensures higher per capita availability/ consumption but controls environmental degradation and pollution. New strategy emphasies greater reliance on non-exhaustible and non-conventional sources of energy so as to conserve exhaustible conventional resources like coal‚ petroleum‚ natural gas
