For my first closed-ended question‚ I asked‚ “Do you support the building of nuclear plants?” I got a varied responses from the audience‚ eight‚ of the 16 in the class‚ supported the building of nuclear plants. The other half of the class said that they either didn’t have enough information or did not support the building. This leads me to believe that the class has mixed feeling on this topic and need more information over nuclear plants to make a decision. The next closed-ended question was‚ “Do

All three of these sources have a lot of interesting facts‚ experiments‚ and tips about energy and how to save it. In the Energy Story‚ the author talks about how we use energy and how many things require energy and use a lot of it.They also talk about where it was first discovered‚ where it comes from‚ and how it works. The next story Short Circuit tells us how to do an experiment and explains what causes it and what is happening. The final story Conducting Solutions talks to us about ions and and

In terms of ascertaining the identity of the metals‚ I was capable of deducing a definite‚ possible identity for the golden metal‚ however‚ I could not provide a definite‚ possible identity for the silver metal. Conversely‚ the results of the experiment themselves‚ whether volume‚ mass‚ or density‚ proved insufficient in my attempts to distinguish the identities of the metals. Thus‚ during the experiment‚ I also observed the color of the metals‚ and used these observations in my assessment of the

The modern atomic theory was developed by many scientists‚ such as Neil Bohr‚ Democritus‚ James Chadwick and John Dalton. Each of these intelligent scientists have found different discoveries in their research with the atom. Why has scientific understanding of the atom changed over time? This would be because each scientist has had a different approach and has discovered new understandings from their research. Without these men researching and experimenting‚ we would not know all of the different

1. Is it safe to let Yucca Mountain store the nation’s nuclear waste? Full credit will not be awarded to students who provide only their opinions. Cite references using the APA format. Knowing the fact that Nuclear waste is dangerous it is now it is not safe to store it anywhere but then what should we do with it. But don’t think yucca mountain is the place for that. As steve Hargreaves says yucca mountain has more water in it then it seem and it can have high volcanoes then expected. Looking

What is the purpose of Area 51? Is there some type of government cover up involved or is it simply a military base? There have been several theories of how area 51 got its name. The most common is that the facility borders the Nevada Test Site (NTS)‚ where the Atomic Energy Commission (AEC) test nuclear bombs. The NTS is a grid of squares on the map numbered from one to thirty that border area 15‚ which many believe that the Area 51 got its name by reversing the one and five of its neighbor. Others

Nuclear power is “safe”. The UK now has enough radioactive waste to fill the Royal Albert Hall five times over. It is more reliable than other types of power and creates very little emissions. However the cons just outweigh the pros. Where is all this waste meant to go to? The waste will probably end up in the environment harming the earth. It is deemed safe but an accident occurred‚ the consequences would be catastrophic like the Chernobyl disaster. It has been twenty years since the worst nuclear

Explain the possible impacts on UK energy security of the trends shown. (10) The Overall trend in the amount of energy use shown in Figure 1 is not dramatically changed. The amount has only increased by 20 million tonnes (in equivalent of oil) between 1970 and 2030‚ not much when the overall use in 2030 is expected to be a staggering 230 million tonnes. This does not indicate insecurity as such because the increase itself is not outside of our capabilities to obtain the energy. We faced an increase

Though the study of science has brought many new inventions into our sight‚ they are more harmful than they are useful to the human world. The invention of Nuclear Power
