while I was doing this unit. The main sections that I am going to cover are – the search engines used‚ search techniques used and search criteria‚ sources of information used‚ comparison of the internet and non- internet sources and the quality of the information found. Internet Source Most frequently used search engine for this unit was Google as it is quite obvious but I also tried to use other search engines which I am not that familiar to such as Bing‚ Ask Jeeves‚ Dogpile‚ Answers‚ MSN Search

siege engine that was employed in the middle ages. It is a modified version of the catapult that uses a counterweight to throw a large stone or blunt object. This means the only power it uses‚ is gravity. This invention brought about the end of knights‚ and castles. It’s usually made out of wood and some other materials‚ so it’s fairly simple to create; which means‚ most if not all societies in the middle ages had one. The trebuchet is often confused with the earlier torsion siege engines. But the

Heat engine lab Intro: when an engine runs‚ it pumps pistons that move up and down and provide energy to the engine to it to go. These pistons move because of pressure and heat. This work done on the system is not only mechanical but its also thermodynamic. When a piston undergoes one full cycle its displacement is zero because it comes back to its resting place. This means that its net thermodynamic work to be done should also be zero‚ as well as its total internal energy. In order to test this

The downside to the remarkable invention of the steam engine is the actual steam itself. At the end of a cycle‚ the steam use to move pistons and drive the cycle must be released as exhaust. This translates into a high-temperature‚ high-pressure vapor (with a high heat of condensation) effusing at high speeds. If a human limb or digit gets in the way of this potent jet‚ it means sure destruction of the epidermis‚ papillary dermis‚ and even reticular dermis portions of the skin. In layman’s terms

strong and prominent ruler of the Roman empire. The Bubonic plague killed millions of people during the middle ages. Religion has been apart of the world since the beginning with polytheism and later monotheism. The Golden ages has had a huge impact on western civilizations‚ Augustus took the broken Roman republic and made it into a large and peaceful Roman Empire. His greatest achievement was Roman peace‚ also called the Pax Romana. In an article called “Octavian-Augustus: The first roman Emperor”

Statistics. In Europe‚ prices are even higher‚ costing more than $4 in countries like England and the Netherlands. But cost is not the only problem with using gasoline as our primary fuel. It is also damaging to the environment‚ and since it is not a renewable resource‚ it will eventually run out. One possible alternative is the air-powered car. Air powered cars runs on compressed air instead of gasoline. This car is powered by a two cylinder compressed engine. This engine can run either
