Solar Storm Informative Speech Topic: Solar Storm Organizational Pattern: Cause and Effect General Purpose: Speaking to Inform Specific Purpose: This speech is to inform the public‚ including my fellow students‚ and instructor on the dramatic effect of a Solar Storm on society. Thesis Statement: When the Solar Storm hits earth it will eliminate all electricity and communication. The most recent recorded history of a major Solar Storm was in 1859 when their were no electrical grids‚ satellites

The Power of Solar Storms To Our Fragile Planet Natural disasters occur when least expected all over the world. Disasters affect countless lives and cost millions of dollars. Hurricanes‚ tornados‚ and tsunamis occur with such regularity throughout the world that society has developed warning systems and is prepared to rebound from these disasters as quickly as possible. One disaster that most people do not think about is solar storms. Research shows that solar storms have been documented since the

simulator by using basic math blocks. The modeling method and the proposed circuit model are useful for power electronics designers who need a simple‚ fast‚ accurate‚ and easy-to-use modeling method for using in simulations of PV systems. In the first pages‚ the reader will find a tutorial on PV devices and will understand the parameters that compose the single-diode PV model. The modeling method is then introduced and presented in details. The model is validated with experimental data of commercial

assignment is based on solar energy and the title is “Solar Energy: and infinite resource meeting our infinite demand.” Firstly‚ solar energy is then introduced where it states that the energy radiated from sun is the solar energy which is essential for Earth. The aspects to be covered and the motivation for choosing solar energy are then explained. Pictures of solar cells are provided to have a better view of how solar power is generated. In addition‚ the importance of solar power is explained which

What is first aid? First aid is the provision of initial care for an illness or injury. It is usually performed by non-expert‚ but trained personnel to a sick or injured person until definitive medical treatment can be accessed. Certain self-limiting illnesses or minor injuries may not require further medical care past the first aid intervention. It generally consists of a series of simple and in some cases‚ potentially life-saving techniques that an individual can be trained to perform with minimal

How It Works The plastic bottle is filled with only water and bleach. The liquid inside the bottle harnesses the light from the sun‚ capturing and diffracting the light to all parts of the room. It is equivalent to a 55 watt light bulb. [pic] [pic] What ’s the Technology It consists of a 1.5l PET bottle filled with purified water and bleach (10 ml). A special glue is used to bond and seal the bottle to the roof. Adding the bleach to the water makes sure that the water stays clean and transparent

Solar Absorbers and the Future of Electricity Solar Absorbers and the Future of Electricity By James Folta Electricity is what we use to power things at home or at school. You can probably look around right now and see an electrical outlet or two. Everything that we plug into one of these outlets uses electricity. But where does this electricity come from? Right now we have a few ways to make electricity. Some are better than others. There are some scientists who are trying to find

Solar Energy Solar energy in one form or another is the source of nearly all energy on the earth. Humans‚ like all other animals and plants‚ rely on the sun for warmth and food. However‚ people also harness the sun’s energy in many other different ways. For example‚ fossil fuels‚ plant matter from a past geological age‚ is used for transportation and electricity generation and is essentially just stored solar energy from millions of years ago. Similarly‚ biomass converts the sun’s energy into a
