huge amounts of energy‚ and their molecules are spread out as much as possible. With very little pressure‚ when compared to liquids and solids‚ those molecules can be compressed. It happens all of the time. Combinations of pressure and decreasing temperature force gases into tubes that we use every day. You might see compressed air in a spray bottle or feel the carbon dioxide rush out of a can of soda. Those are both examples of gas forced into a smaller space than it would want‚ and the gas escapes

Temperature Rising Global Warming is the increase in the average temperature of the Earth’s near-surface air‚ landmasses‚ and oceans its projected prolongation. Many believe that the Earth is currently facing warming in the ozone layer brought on by the rising levels of trapped gases known as the greenhouse effect resulting especially from pollution. Global warming is‚ in Laymen’s terms‚ altering the balance in energy of the earth (Reid 27). “The topic of climatic change has been in question

MOTOR TEMPERATURE RATINGS A frequently misunderstood subject related to electric motors is insulation class and temperature ratings. This paper tries to describe‚ in basic terms‚ the temperature relationships that are meaningful in standard AC induction motors. Some of the same information can be applied to DC motors but DC motors are more specialized and some of the ratings are slightly different. Perhaps the best way to start is to define the commonly used terms. MOTOR SURFACE TEMPERATURES

The polar biome can be situated in either the North or South Pole. Some of the human impacts currently in Antarctica are tourism‚ Climate Change and Invasive species due to this there is been dramatic changes to food webs and the environment itself. In Antarctica temperatures are extremely low with an average annual temperature ranging from -10°C to -80°C in different

Lexie Fixico Mr. Nguyen Biology 28 February 2013 Bottle Biome I. Introduction The problem is how the miracle gro helps the mustard seed germinate. The purpose of this experiment is to find out how the water cycle works in a biome. The objectives are to find out what soils help the mustard seed grow the fastest. If I use miracle grow than the plants will germinate the fastest because of the Molybdenum it has in it. II. Methods Materials you will need: Clear tape Ruler

Outline the relationship between climate and one or more biomes. (10 marks). One biome which is part of the cold zone of the Earth where the latitude of the sun is from 60-90° is Tundra. Tundra is a treeless‚ level‚ or gently undulating plain characteristic of the Artic and sub-Artic regions characterised by low temperatures and short growing seasons. The polar areas between 60 and 90° latitude receive less heat from solar radiation as the angle of the sun is at a much lower angle towards the ground

A Biome is a large natural area on Earth where specific types of plants and vegetation grow. (Kalman‚ 1997). It is a large area where the form of life of climatic vegetation is uniform and also reflects the key features of the climate which also maps out the structural form and nature of the habitat for animals. (Odum‚ 1997). The climate‚ soil-types and animal life are all constituents of a Biome. There can be numerous ecosystems in any single Biome. This is due to the fact that there are many different
