Sustainable Energy 1. How can electricity be defined? Electricity can be defined as the flow of electrical power or charge. It is a type of energy fuelled by the flow of electrons from positive and negative points within a conductor. 2. What is an electrical circuit? 3. What components are required to create an electrical circuit? In order to create an electrical circuit‚ you need: a) A source of electric power (battery or generator) b) A load to absorb the power (lamp

Energy Systems Our body needs a supply of energy to complete day to day tasks and to simply be able to move. We have more than one energy system‚ we have 3 in total and these are * ATP (anaerobic) * Lactic acid (anaerobic) * Aerobic (aerobic) All three off these energy systems are fuelled by the same chemical called ADP-PC. These systems produce this chemical at different speeds‚ for example the ATP system produces the chemical very fast as for the aerobic energy system produces it

Energy conservation helps ensure available resources for future generations and also helps prevent pollution. Most of our current energy sources today are not renewable‚ which means that they will eventually deplete. As a member of the Home Owner’s Association I believe that it is extremely important for us to educate our community about the importance of energy conservation. Teaching the community that energy is not a right but a privilege will educate‚ empower‚ and make us aware of the importance

In today’s world‚ most of us know that it is important to turn off lights and other electrical appliances to conserve energy‚ but not everyone understands that the reason for the emphasis on cutting back on the use of energy is due to the inevitable depletion of our environment’s nonrenewable resources. Of course‚ electric power is not the only factor that has lead to our supply of nonrenewable resources declining in recent decades. The overdependence on natural gas and oil to fuel our cars and

Energy Lab On November 13th‚ we did a lab to learn about energy. The definition of Kinetic Energy is energy of movement. The definition of Gravitational Potential Energy is energy in an object due to its positioning. The question that we had to answer was whether of not we could calculate the Gravitational Potential Energy and Kinetic Energy of various objects in different locations. To do this lab we had to first weigh the given objects. For this time‚ we weighed : a marble‚ a bouncy ball‚

we have had a certain amount of new "alternative energy resources" been introduced to us. These new energy sources range from using almost all natural resources as suppliers. Some are quite complex while others just needed a little brainpower. One quite complex energy source is one of geothermal energy. Harnessing geothermal energy is an art in itself. It is the process of capturing the Earth’s internal heat in the core. This and many other energy sources are being implemented today to build a better

Clean Energy is Possible First of all‚ energy comes from many sources like oil‚ coal‚ nuclear and wood. These four sources and others are dirty energy. There is clean energy like the solar‚ wind‚ water‚ and kinetic energy. Both of them cause bad or good problems I agree with writer with some points and I disagree with hem on other points. First I agree with him with the point the one that he talks about burning wood and coal causes a lot of pollution in the atmosphere also burning oil is dirty
