COMMENTARY - REINDEER AND ENGINE This poem‚ "Reindeer and Engine" is by Josephine Jacobsen. It is set in a ’Finnish forest track’ where a reindeer is being chassed by a train. It flees from the light of the train as it ’runs’ forward trying to escape. This is a narrative poem because it tells a story from an omniscient point of view. It is written in four stanza’s each one telling a different part of the story. The first idea we come across is that of light. ’The great round eye’ in the first line

- deals with the dynamics of heat and the conversion of heat to work. (car engines. Refrigerators‚ etc) - first law of thermodynamics heat added to a closed system goes into the internal energy of the system and/or doing work - H= delta E1 + W - a heat engine takes heat from a high temperature reservoir‚ converts some to useful work and rejects the remainder to the low temp reservoir. - Second law of thermodynamics - It is impossible for heat to flow spontaneously from a

Clausius was the first to formulate the second law in 1850. His statement was that “no machine whose working fluid undergoes a cycle can absorb heat from one system‚ reject heat from another‚ and produce no effect”. Following these came about another statement made by Kelvin and Plank which said “no heat engine whose working fluid undergoes a cycle can absorb heat from one reservoir‚ deliver an equal amount of work and deliver no other effects”. One example of the second law of thermodynamics is when

Types of energy: kinetic e(in joules)= .5mv^2. Solar energy- 1gw per km^2 Solar energy can be turned into electricity through solar cells 15%=cheap‚ 40% efficiency=expensive. Caloric theory of heat=caloric fluid flows from hot object to cold. Heat engine= device to turn heat energy into useful work: heat comes from something hot but only some goes to useful work. Satellites=free fall. Ionizing radiation=energy in the form of waves or paricle Beta radiation-just an electron‚ wont go through skin

Article 1 The Engine of Capitalist Process: Entrepreneurs in Economic Theory Entrepreneurship is not planning by groups or management decisions by corporate bodies‚ but the exploitation of perceived opportunity by individuals based solely on personal judgments and visions that others either don’t see or can’t bear the risks of acting on.

The Jet Engine and the Revolution in Leisure Air Travel‚ 1960-1975 Peter Lyth Air transport for European tourists got off to a shaky start in the late 1920s. 1 But it was to be thirty years before leisure air travel was to appeal to anyone but the rich and adventurous. High cost‚ fear of flying and the absence of toilets in early airliners (an unfortunate combination) were the main deterrents; the unpressurized aircraft of the inter-war years were noisy‚ slow and not especially comfortable
