Conservation of Energy In explaining the laws of conservation of energy‚ energy cannot be destroyed or made. Although‚ energy can be transformed or transferred from one form to another‚ for example: The total amount of energy in any system never changes but stays constant over time. Second example: Coal is burned‚ and then used as thermal energy for heat‚ next the steam is used for mechanical energy. Energy is never destroyed but changed to forms like thermal energy‚ gravitational energy‚ electromagnetic

Maggie Haas Reiter Honors Physic 8 March 2015 Background Information: Anything that has mass and is moving has momentum. Momentum is equal to the objects mass times its velocity. Momentum is conserved‚ which means that “momentum before an event equals momentum immediately after‚ or pi=pf”. Since pi=pf‚ then pai+ pbi = paf+ pbf and (ma* vai)+ (mb* vbi)= (ma* vaf) + (mb * vbf). Having velocity simply means that an object has a speed and direction. Using the formula “(ma * vai) + (mb * vbi)

This 54‚000 square mile desert has its own special type of diversity. In the desert the plants and animals all depend on

Agricultural Land Conservation The issues of land distribution and land conservation in agriculture attract more and more attention‚ especially when the expansion of cropland is hitting a limit since much more land is conserved for environmental purposes. Soil erosion is devastating the topsoil of land as chemical fertilizers are used to increase output within a limited amount of land. At the same time‚ livestock production expands at an ever-growing speed‚ worsening the land use situation.
