air is sucked out of the bulb to create a vacuum. It would also include a glass bulb‚ which is a base to help screw light bulbs into lamps and light fixtures‚ and last lead wires which carry electricity to the bulb from a power plant. (Wallace). If there was a piece of metal in a lightbulb‚ and if energy was passed through it‚ it would become hot enough to glow and then melt. A solution to the problem of it burning is to surround the inside with a vacuum‚ as nothing can burn without oxygen. The

When Sullivan went in she grabbed the vacuum and ran out the door‚ yelling at Ariail to come on as she ran.

Introduction Over the past century science‚ physics in particular‚ has developed beyond any reasonable expectation. Some of the best work was done by the great minds such as James Clerk Maxwell‚ Niels Bohr‚ Werner Heisenberg‚ Alexander Friedmann‚ etc. The list goes on but some of the best work was from Albert Einstein. Much of his work was done during the beginning of the 20th century and then later on he was joined by other great minds to form a new field in physics called cosmology. In 1905 Albert

FOOD PRESERVATION 1.0 Definition Food preservation is the process of treating and handling food to stop or slow down spoilage (loss of quality‚ edibility or nutritional value) and thus allow for longer storage. Preservation usually involves preventing the growth of bacteria‚ yeasts‚ fungi‚ and other micro-organisms (although some methods work by introducing benign bacteria‚ or fungi to the food)‚ as well as retarding the oxidation of fats which cause rancidity. Food preservation can also include

evolution of computers. Evolution of computer technology can be divided into five generations. First generation computer consisted of vacuum tubes and they were used from 1943-1958. ENIAC (Electronic Numerical Integrator and Calculator) computer is an example of first generation computer. Second generation (1959-1965) computer consisted of transistors i.e. vacuum tubes were replaced by transistors. Thus the size of the computer got reduced considerably. Third generation (1966-1973) computer consisted

HISTORY OF COMPUTER THE PRE-MECHANICAL AGE: 3000 B.C. – 1450 A.D. 1. Writing and Alphabets – Communication First development of signs corresponding to spoken sounds‚ instead of pictures‚ to express words. Around 2000 B.C.‚ Phoenicians created symbols that expressed single syllables and consonants (the first true alphabet) The Greeks later adopted the Phoenician alphabet and added vowels; the Romans gave the letters Latin names to create the alphabet we use today. 2.

Once the second 100 mL beaker reached 80°C and this was determined based on the glass thermometer. This heated solution was then poured immediately into the vacuum filtration system. The vacuum filtration system was set-up and ran identical to the experiment listed above. 10 mL of the 80°C saturated calcium hydroxide solution was measured using a 10 mL graduated cylinder. The 10 mL of the 80°C saturated calcium hydroxide solution
