EXPERIMENT NO. 10 Thevenin’s Theorem Objectives: 1. To verify the Thevenin’s theorem through an experiment. 2. To find the Thevenin’s resistance RTH by various methods and compare values. Equipment: Resistors‚ DMM‚ breadboard‚ DC power supply‚ and connecting wires. Theory: Thevenin theorem states that any linear two-terminal circuit can be replaced by an equivalent circuit consisting of a voltage source VTH in series with a resistance RTH where * VTH is the open-circuit voltage at

Environmental Case Analysis: The Risks of Global Climate Change Introduction "The natural world seems to be deteriorating around us‚ and it seems to be our fault. We are uncertain about the extent of the deterioration‚ the means that would reverse it‚ and the prospects for human life in the future" (Newton‚ Dillingham‚ & Choly‚ 2006‚ p. x). The environment and its protection is an extremely serious issue. Many environmental issues exist including endangered species‚ waste pollution‚ over population

Climate Change and its effects on Migration in Mexico and Central America Climate change has quite an impact on migration throughout Mexico and Central America. Changing temperatures‚ droughts‚ catastrophic weather and rising sea levels at times force people to migrate to another area. It appears that the changing climates impact on livelihoods and migration are much stronger in rural areas than in urban area (Nawrotzki‚ 2016). Sometimes its temporary migration while other times it’s permanent. Each

How does a climate change influence water resources? Climate change is the biggest challenge that we face in the world today. It is already leading to significant changes in the world’s physical environment. Extreme weather events are becoming more frequent. Glaciers are melting. Sea ice and snow cover are declining. Animals and plants are responding to earlier seasons. Global warming has already driven up mean sea levels by 110-20 centimetres during the last 100 years‚ and this is forecast to

The Potential Relationship Between Human Activity and Climate Change The idea of global warming has been around for over one hundred years‚ but in recent decades climate change has become a serious threat to national security. To better understand‚ global warming is defined as the gradual increase in the overall temperature of the earth’s atmosphere‚ generally recognized as the greenhouse effect‚ and is caused by increased levels of carbon dioxide‚ CFCs‚ and other pollutants‚ also known as greenhouse

Water Crisis in India: Side Effect of Climate Change There is one very famous quote which says‚ “Water is life’s mater and matrix‚ mother and medium. There is no life without water”. This quote highlights the importance of water and its value in sustenance of life on earth. It has multiple uses and each of them supports life‚ directly or indirectly. Even though 75 percent of our Earth is covered with water‚ less than two percent is fresh water. To make the matters worse‚ only about 1% is available

Bayes’ theorem describes the relationships that exist within an array of simple and conditional probabilities. For example: Suppose there is a certain disease randomly found in one-half of one percent (.005) of the general population. A certain clinical blood test is 99 percent (.99) effective in detecting the presence of this disease; that is‚ it will yield an accurate positive result in 99 percent of the cases where the disease is actually present. But it also yields false-positive results in 5

From his stance on climate change to a rise in xenophobia after his inauguration‚ the effects of Donald Trump and his current presidency of the United States has the power to change the future. The impacts Donald Trump’s decisions have over the next four years during his presidency can have great effects on not only the United States but the future of the world. Firstly‚ one effect Trump’s candidacy has had in the United States is a rise in xenophobia and hate crimes. The news site newyorker.com

Is climate change naturally or man-made? First of all‚ for anyone that does not know what climate change is‚ it is a change in the world’s climate. A lot of people think weather and climate is the same thing but it is not. The difference between weather and climate is a measure of time. Weather is what conditions of the atmosphere are over a short period of time. Climate is what the conditions are over relatively long periods of time. My belief of the issue is that climate change is man-made
