these days is powered by electricity‚ and while this has certainly improved the quality of life‚ it has its downfalls as well. Some examples are: its effects on our Earth such as global warming‚ the rising bills caused by using too much electricity‚ and so much more. This is the reason why our group has decided to do a research on alternatives for energy source‚ specifically by means of saltwater or saline solution. We believe that this will help us decrease our use in electricity and therefore lessen

HISTORY OF ELECTRICITY IN KERALA – Dr D Shina S N COLLEGE‚ Kollam‚ Kerala‚ India email - achushina@gmail.com ORIGIN AND GROWTH OF ELECTRICITY The history of electricity can be traced back to the eighteenth century. The first instance of sensing the phenomenon of electricity was the accidental observation of what was later found out to be neon glow by Framas Bauksbw in 1709 at the Royal Society in London. Luigi Galvani observed moving of the legs of a dead frog when touched with a metal scalpel

Electricity and magnetism are two different aspects of one force. This force is called the electromagnetic force. Electricity can be generated by rotating coils of wire in the vicinity of a magnet. When a force moves objects toward and away from each other it is called electricity. When it comes to magnets‚ Earth and other planets behave like giant magnets. The first know magnets were iron materials. If one piece of the iron was placed in contact with the other‚ it attracted it. In ancient times

Electric eel produce Electricity? A Knifefish also known as an Electric eel is the only species in its genus which can produce electricity. The Electricity is produced within his organs three in specific (Hunters Organ‚ Sachs organ‚ and the main organ). The three organs that generate the electricity within the eel takes up 4/5 of his body‚ which can be a good amount since a common Electric eel can be as big as 6’7. The Sachs organ one of the three organs that produce electricity is associated with

History of Clocks and the Impact of Electricity on them. Introduction: In this poster we are going to show you the history and the development of the clock through time and how it has impacted society. We will also show how electricity has affected the development and effectiveness of clocks. Sun clock: One of the first clocks on record is the sun clock. Sun clocks basically work on the principle that the position of a stationary object’s shadow will be in the same place at a certain

The article‚ “You say Potato‚ I say Electricity‚” focuses mainly on water‚ potatoes‚ and the energy crisis. A lot of water is being used for potatoes. Due to improvements in technology‚ Idaho farmers 20 billion pounds of potatoes‚ which is‚ “up from 12 billion pounds 20 years ago.” This causes a partial shift in the Production Possibilities Curve (PPC). There is a surplus of potatoes because the market supply is a lot more than the market demand. When using a lot of the water on potatoes‚ hydroelectric
