concerned with Irish history. Looming over the scene depicted is the spectre of the potato famine that afflicted Ireland from 1845-49. The potato crop‚ staple for the Irish‚ failed‚ and with cataclysmic results. About half the population of three million died‚ while a million people emigrated – many to America. The first section of the poem is written in alternately rhymed quatrains that describe a rural scene of potato digging that is clearly in progress much later than a similar scene around the time

The use of RFID Chips in humans Radio-frequency identification (RFID) chips are small radio-frequency electromagnetic fields that can be used in a product‚ animal‚ and humans to track location‚ transfer data‚ and to identify the object. These chips are as small as a grain of rice and can store over 2‚000 bytes of data. Some chips are powered by and read at short ranges via magnetic fields (electromagnetic induction). Certain chips use a local power source like a battery and some others that don’t

Along the way‚ scientists discovered that the popular staple of many people’s diets may also have potential to help power it as well. The potato is starchy‚ tuberous crop from the perennial nightshade . The word "potato" may refer either to the plant itself

Science Research Paper: “Potato Battery” I. Problem a. Main Problem This study aims to prove whether fruits and vegetables are good reserves of electricity. The potato‚ known for its high Phosphoric Acid and Sulfuric Acid‚ has been as our chosen fruit to prove and conduct our answers upon the accessibility of fruits and vegetables as an effective renewable energy source. b. Sub-Problems To further provide extra and specific information‚ the researchers have decided to add the following

Group 2 Science Investigatory Project I Title: Potato Battery II Objective: We only need a potato‚ a couple nails and a piece of wire to make a potato battery. It’s a fun science project that helps show the way things work in a battery by using everyday items we see around the house. The goal is to learn more about electricity‚ and possibly a few new science terms along the way. III Materials: * Two Potatoes * Two short pieces of heavy copper wire * Two common galvanized nails

Being a couch potato is what many of us tend to be when we are on a break or on a holiday but why not try to do something different and useful that could bring benefits to one’s self? Earning additional cash over the internet could be let us just say one of the most beneficial way to kill time. Making extra cash is not easy but it is definitely worth the effort because the extra cash could come in handy during the rainy days. Besides‚ it’s easier earning some side income through the internet than

POTATO INTO BATTERY Abstract a.Purpose To lessen the consume of electric charge b. Procedure We insert copper and zinc electrodes in to the potato‚ close but not touching each other. We use Clip leads to connect our electrodes to the Multimeter to measure voltage between two electrodes or current passing through the multimeter. For this experiment we used a galvanized nail for our Zinc electrode. c. Result It did go well and the potato did give voltage to the equipment (clock) However‚ the

INTRODUCTION Electronics without silicon is unbelievable‚ but it will come true with the evolution of Diamond or Carbon chip. Now a day we are using silicon for the manufacturing of Electronic Chip’s. It has many disadvantages when it is used in power electronic applications‚ such as bulk in size‚ slow operating speed etc. Carbon‚ Silicon and Germanium are belonging to the same group in the periodic table. They have four valance electrons in their outer shell. Pure Silicon and Germanium are semiconductors
