Definition of Wind Energy “Wind Energy - Energy received from the movement of the wind across the earth. This energy is a result of the heating of our oceans‚ earth‚ and atmosphere by the sun. Turbines convert the kinetic energy of wind into mechanical or electrical energy that can be used for power.” The German physicist Albert Betz calculated in 1919 the possible maximum amount of energy that can be extracted out of wind energy. He came to the result of 59.3% that can be extracted and named this

Risk Factors for Cardiovascular Disease Large scale studies have been undertaken to find the risk factors for many common diseases‚ including CVD. Epidemiologists (scientists who study patterns in the occurrence of disease) look for correlations between a disease and specific risk factors. Two commonly used designs for this type of study are; • Cohort studies- a group of people are followed over time to see who develops a disease • Case control studies- a group of people who have the disease

manipulations of fossil fuels represent an arduous and taxing means for producing energy to power further innovation. Therefore‚ novel methods of energy production are requisite to future technological progress. Therefore‚ investments into sources of renewable energy have expanded yet have met with heated discussion. The United States is a major consumer of resources such as coal‚ oil‚ and natural gas. Consumers of energy continue to grow exponentially‚ which poses a huge challenge to these diminishing

release of nuclear energy occurs when the nuclei of atoms are changed. Hydrogen and uranium are two kinds of matter used to produce nuclear energy. In a nuclear reaction‚ the tremendous binding energy inside a hydrogen or uranium nucleus is released. Nuclear energy is released during atomic fission‚ when uranium nuclei are split. It is also released during fusion‚ when hydrogen nuclei combine to form a helium nucleus. In fission and fusion‚ nuclear energy produces thermal energy‚ which is given

Renewable energy is energy that comes from resources which are continually replenished such as sunlight‚ wind‚ rain‚ tides‚ waves and geothermal heat. About 16% of global final energy consumption comes from renewable resources‚ with 10%[discuss] of all energy from traditional biomass‚ mainly used for heating‚ and 3.4% from hydroelectricity. New renewables (small hydro‚ modern biomass‚ wind‚ solar‚ geothermal‚ and biofuels) accounted for another 3% and are growing very rapidly.[2] The share of renewables
