1.iPrécis Katherine Bourzac‚ in her article “A Smarter Prosthetic for the Eye” (2012)‚ explains to readers that new prosthetics for the eye could reverse vision loss in some people with a simple implant. She supports this claim by explaining the technology and how it “combines infrared video-projection goggles with a small‚ wire-free chip implanted inside the retina” then by stating “[the implants] might restore more vision than other retinal prosthetics being worked on” (1). Bourzac’s purpose is

despite billions of pounds of research - nuclear waste‚ issues all of which need to be tackled. That price never appears on the quarterly bill. Renewable energy comes from sources that will remain sustainable long after fossil fuels become scarce. Photovoltaic cells that convert sunlight into electricity‚ wind turbines that exploit Britain’s climate‚ hydro-power which captures energy from falling water‚ and wave power which captures energy from the sea are some of the main sources. The potential for

Modern design trends‚ often turbulent weather‚ and growing awareness for energy efficiency is having many homeowners in Dallas contemplate whether to replace their roofing system. However‚ roof replacement or repair might seem to be simple and straightforward on the surface‚ but there are actually a number of factors to consider before investing in such type of projects. Since replacing the roof is an expensive investment‚ it is certainly worth extra time and effort in considering the latest trends

The Photoelectric Effect Definition: It is the emission of electrons from a metal surface under the illumination of a suitable radiation. The photoelectric effect is the phenomenon whereby electrons are emitted from a surface (usually metallic) upon the exposure to and absorption of electromagnetic radiation‚ such as visible light‚ that is above the threshold frequency. This is because electrons cannot get enough energy to overcome their atomic bonding. The photoelectric effect furthered wave

ENG 102 Boris Marinov Spring 2012 Professor Sean Homer Research Paper Why renewable power sources are better than nuclear power? Nuclear power is the most productive power source. However‚ there are several ongoing debates around the efficiency and the usage of nuclear power. Several factors such as the catastrophes in Chernobyl and Fukushima and the depleting of coal and gas reserves have led to the idea behind the renewable power sources. The renewable power sources are the future
