The main reasons why immigrants seek the American Dream are because the lack of job opportunities in their home countries. Some other people try to escape from governments

How to Make a Simple Electric Motor Energy comes in many forms. Electric energy can be converted into useful work‚ or mechanical energy‚ by machines called electric motors. Electric motors work due to electromagnetic interactions: the interaction ofcurrent (the flow of electrons) and a magnetic field. Problem Find out how to make a simple electric motor. Materials Needed D battery Insulated 22G wire 2 large-eyed‚ long‚ metal sewing needles (the eyes must be large enough to fit the wire through)

description of Electric Iron introduction: An electric iron is a small appliance‚a handheld piece of equipment with a flat‚ roughly triangular metal surface that‚ when heated‚ is used to press clothes to remove creases. Ironing works by loosening the ties between the long chains of molecules that exist in polymer fiber materials. With the heat and the weight of the ironing plate‚ the fibers are stretched and the fabric maintains its new shape when cool. description: The electric iron must have

Sakib Khan Electric Eels – Physics The animal that is usually known as electric eel is in fact not really an eel but a freshwater species related more to the carp family or catfish family. These unique freshwater predators got their name from the immense electrical charge that they can easily generate to stun or even kill their preys and dissuade predators. Electric eels can grow extremely large which usually can reach as high as 8 foot long and weigh a great amount of 45lbs. In addition to this

Mary Shelly’s novel‚ Frankenstein‚ can be greatly related to many horror novels‚ no consideration of morality or thought. Shelly writes her story in a real world perspective showing themes of corruption and downfall making it seem frighteningly realistic. It truly is mind-boggling how research can conflict with religion without a thought or care. During the enlightenment‚ science began to mask over faith and religion‚ creating a cultural phenomenon. This is still a factor in today’s world. Although

The test charge at first was attracted but then repelled. 3. After observing the electric field in your trials above‚ where was the electric field the strongest? What was the direction of the electric field? ● Positive charge Upwards 4. Did you notice a green arrow appear as the test charge started to accelerate‚ this arrow represented the electric force! If not‚ take another “shot” at the game above and come back to this question. When was the electric force the greatest? ● Electric force was the greatest when the positive/negative was close to the test charge
