Regina May P. Hinagdanan 10-SCB Physics Reaction Paper Is nuclear power plant really that dangerous? It is true that many people have varying opinions about having nuclear power plants and developing nuclear energy. I‚ myself‚ see it as a good alternative source of energy while my brother sees it as a weapon for mass destruction. Nowadays‚ people are easily swayed by the reports of the media. Indeed‚ most of them are true but some of them tend to be a bit exaggerated. The article pointed

to atomic radiation is the Fukushima Daiichi meltdown. It was the most extensive nuclear disaster since Chernobyl. Radiation release critically contaminated a "dead zone" of several hundred square kilometers around the plant‚ and low levels of radioactive material were found as far as North America and Europe. But with no doubt‚ the most astonishing and unfortunate accident‚ concerning with atomic radiation‚ is the nuclear reactor in Chernobyl. The atomic radiation released from Chernobyl affected

of forgetting – specifically trace decay‚ displacement‚ interference and/or cue dependent forgetting. Forgetting from STM is usually explained in terms of the information being removed from a limited capacity store. This is due to a lack of availability. The capacity and duration of LTM are in effect unlimited. Not being able to retrieve information from LTM may be due to lack of accessibility. One explanation for forgetting in short term memory is trace decay. This explanation of forgetting in

In Joseph Conrad’s book Heart of Darkness ‚ Conrad represents the decay of the indigenous scenery as a metaphor to the decay within developed countries‚ specifically in England. This decay is a direct result of the actions taken by the society within this indigenous scenery. Within the book Heart of Darkness greed is a immense description toward the English and the scenery

If nuclear waste is harmful it should not be stored by humans‚ but in less to non-populated areas. “Spent nuclear fuel remains highly dangerous for prolonged periods. It has long lived radioactive materials in it that can contaminate the environment and harm public health” (USA Today). Thousands of Americans are exposed to nuclear waste sites across the country. And if we do not take action to find somewhere else to store this waste. Many

Aim The Sydney suburbs of Pyrmont and ultimo are located on a peninsula on the western side of darling harbor. In earlier days the two suburbs ran along Union Street. Now the Pyrmont-Ultimo peninsula is a long strip of land known by locals that it is ‘into the deep waters of Sydney Harbour’. Beginning in the early 1800s the Pyrmont-Ultimo area was once occupied by many ‘blue-collar’ workers generally known as manual labour workers‚ the area was surrounded by industrial areas or the waterfronts.

Forgetting is the inability to recall or recognise information that was once stored in the memory and is now not available or cannot be accessed. There are four main theories to forgetting; trace decay‚ cue dependant‚ displacement and interference. Displacement seeks to explain forgetting in the short term memory. According to Shiffrin and Atkinson’s model of memory‚ the short term memory has certain characteristics such as limited capacity so if information is not rehearsed‚ it would be forgotten
