Dr. Paul Mac Cready ‚ Jr. The future of transportation is here‚ and it’s knocking at your door! Our day-to-day means of transportation is changing and the more municipalities‚ business leaders‚ utilities and end-users know about Plug-in Electric Vehicles (PEVs)‚ the more prepared they will be to embrace the “vehicles of tomorrow”

Ms. Haynes 2nd Period May 21‚ 2012 Electric Cars There is a big debate about the future of the auto industry. The new big topic is electric cars. Ads emphasize how much less pollution these cars put out‚ but the truth is that many people do not realize the downside of these cars. For instance‚ did you know that average battery cost for electric cars is between $18‚000 and $20‚000? Also‚ these cars produce significant more amounts of sulfur dioxide compared to traditional internal combustion

also hurt us badly in the long run. The Primary reason we should switch to Electric Cars is because they could save the Environment we live in. Tam Hunt writes for the Future of the Electric car on Green teen media about Electric Cars having saver batteries. “Lithium batteries will probably start showing marginal improvements around that time: (Hunt) The Eco-friendly cars have safer batteries and other equipment. Electric cars are way safer than cars on gas. For example cars that run on file have

Memorandum To: Whom It May Concern From: Yiying “Rachel” Cao Date: 3/6/2013 Subject: Analysis of who killed the electric car Background The problem In 1990s‚ California was threatened by smog problem‚ and black cloud appeared in the sky. Air pollution problem resulted in the development of lung cancer and associated diseases in people. The gasoline car was one of the main factors that released carbon dioxide to the atmosphere‚ which lead to global warming. Facing the risk of devastation

Mechanism Description of an electric guitar Introduction An electric guitar is a stringed musical instrument played with fingers or a plectrum (pick). It consists of a body‚ a neck and a headstock to which usually six steel strings are attached. The magnetic pickups transform the vibrations of the steel strings into audio signals that are driven through an amplifier. Thus‚ the amplifier is also an essential part of the electric guitar. It was the need of amplified sound

Rousselle Molina date submitted: 5/29/13 ELECTRIC FIELD MAPPING I. ABSTRACT: In the Electric Field Mapping‚ we used charged electrodes to create an electric field on a glass tray with a piece of linear graph paper attached to the bottom. We tested several simple electrode positions by moving the probes and drew equipotential lines based on the voltage difference. We then confirmed that the equipotential lines run perpendicular to electric field lines by looking at the experimental data

produced? Have you ever noticed how your hair stands straight and stiff when you comb it vigorously on a dry‚ cold day? Or how difficult it is to remove dust particles from your comb? Your hair and the comb become charged by rubbing. This stationary electric charge is described as static electricity. Activity 1. Rub a plastic sheet with flannel and then hold the plastic sheet near Styrofoam bits. What do you observe? From the observations made‚ you can conclude that rubbing produces static electricity

Entering the electric automotive industry in 2003‚ Tesla itself faced the challenges of being the new entrant into the market having numerous financial troubles that required high capital investments‚ building the brand and distributions channels. However‚ for established manufacturers with considerable economic power to enter this market is relatively low due to their capabilities and governmental program support for developing electric vehicle (Shirouzu‚ 2011).

HOW AN ELECTRIC GENERATOR WORKS Electrical generators by definition are devices that convert mechanical energy into electric energy. The mechanical energy in turn is produced from chemical or nuclear energy in various types of fuel‚ or obtained from renewable sources such as wind or falling water. Steam turbines‚ internal-combustion engines‚ gas combustion turbines‚ electric motors‚ water and wind turbines are the common methods to supply the mechanical energy for such devices. Generators
