Ionization energy If an electron obtains enough energy it jumps beyond the highest energy level and becomes a free electron: the atom itself becomes a positive ion. This electron transition is represented as follows: n = 1 to n = (. Notation n = ( refers to the “world” outside the atom – beyond the control of the nucleus; any electron outside an atom has no potential energy (energy = 0). With hydrogen the ionization energy can be

∗ Computer Abstract—Energy consumption of nodes is a crucial factor that constrains the networks life time for Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs). WSNs are composed of small sensors equipped with lowpower devices‚ and have limited battery power supply. The main concern in existing architectural and optimisation studies is to prolong the network lifetime. The lifetime of the sensor nodes is affected by different components such as the microprocessor‚ the sensing module and the wireless transmitter/receiver

In the beginning of his essay‚ Swift is giving
