Censorship
Number of words: 612 - Number of pages: 3

.... from watching the program. The only way this method can work is if the parents/guardian is there to change the channel but let’s be realistic, how many parents/guardians actuarially have the time to monitor everything there children watch. So most children do end up viewing these programs anyway, and whether we like it or not,the truth of the matter is television educates our children. They educate our children inboth a positive and negative way. In order to minimizes the negative effects the laws and regulations most be stricter then the currently are. on the Internet is a very imp .....

Xenon
Number of words: 619 - Number of pages: 3

.... a sample is heated, the faster element leaves first, leaving the second element behind. Krypton was known to have a boiling point at a temperature that is lower than xenon. So the scientists could predict that heating the mixture would leave krypton in the container, while the faster boiling xenon leaving it. After the two scientists separated krypton and xenon, they identified it as a new element through the emission spectrum of the gas. Xenon is used heavily in light bulbs. Many of the bulbs in camera flashes have xenon in them, because they can be used over 10,000 times without burni .....

Alternative Fuels (fuel Cells)
Number of words: 1185 - Number of pages: 5

.... Cell Works: A fuel cell is an electrochemical device that produces electricity silently, without combustion. Hydrogen fuel, which is one of the most abundant chemicals in the universe, and oxygen from the air are electrochemically combined in the fuel cell to produce electricity. Heat and pure water vapour are the only by-products of the fuel cell. The Ballard Fuel Cell is made up of two electrodes, the anode and the cathode, separated by a polymer membrane electrolyte. Both the anode and the cathode are coated in a thin layer of platinum catalyst. At the anode, hydrogen fuel is changed in .....

Greenhouse Effect
Number of words: 967 - Number of pages: 4

.... is essential for plants who use it for photosynthesis, yet too much can lead to serious threats. The problem lies in the disruption of the balance between how much carbon dioxide plants intake, and what our population produces. If this natural filtering process is unbalanced, the atmosphere will receive too much carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases. Once these gases form in the atmosphere, they act as barriers trapping in heat and warming the earth. This process is not new. In fact, without the , the average surface temperature of the earth would be about 59 Fahrenheit degrees lower tha .....

Lasers And Their Applications
Number of words: 1998 - Number of pages: 8

.... amplitude equal to the sum of the individual amplitudes of the original waves. Stimulated emission is the process that the laser works on, which was first proposed by Albert Einstein in 1917. When a sufficient number of atoms, either gas solid or liquid, absorb energy so that they are in an excited state of higher energy stimulated emission can occur. Light of a specific wavelength can produce more light with the same phase and direction these light waves will be coherent. Stimulated emission amplifies the coherency of this radiation and gives the radiation a very narrow beam spread. Th .....

Wired Hands - A Brief Look At Robotics
Number of words: 1193 - Number of pages: 5

.... are ideal workers: they never get bored and they work around the clock. What's even more important, they're flexible. By altering its programming you can instruct a robot to take on different tasks. This is largely what sets robots apart from other machines; try as you might you can't make your washing machine do the dishes. Although some critics complain that robots are stealing much-needed jobs away from people, so far they've been given only the dreariest, dirtiest, most soul- destroying work. The word robot is Slav in origin and is related to the words for work and worker. Robots fir .....

The Overpopulation Of The Snow Goose In North America
Number of words: 1801 - Number of pages: 7

.... All three species have exploded in numbers since the 1950’s. Researchers have done a lot of study on the numbers and the degradation but may need to do more studies on the impact to other species and look for other options to control the populations. Population Trends The numbers of all "light" colored geese has been on the rise since data was first collected. The Lesser Snow Goose (LSGO) has drastically increased in number since data was first taken. Numbers range from around 800,000 in 1969 to as many as 6 million in 1996 (CWS 1999). While the Greater Snow Goose (GSGO) has risen in .....

Cells
Number of words: 333 - Number of pages: 2

.... eukaryotic cell is its only source of nutrition, its surface area must be large enough to allow the cell’s organelles to receive the material it needs or it will die. The eukaryotic cell does this by maximizing the surface area to volume ratio. By using the surface area and volume equations for a sphere you can estimate the surface area of a small cell. By modeling the growth rate of the surface area and volume of a sphere on a linear graph its easily discernible that as the size of the sphere increases the ratio of surface area to volume dramatically decreases until finally the volume of t .....

Atomic Structure
Number of words: 827 - Number of pages: 4

.... state. The everyday world is made of molecules. Because molecules are so small, their existence was not easy to establish. Indirect evidence for molecules was strong during the second half of the 19th century, and the first explicit evidence was found when Brownian motion was correctly understood and studied in about 1906 by physicists Albert Einstein and Jean-Baptiste Perrin. There are many kinds of molecules, and it was clear that simplifying ideas were needed. The Russian chemist Dmitri Mendeleev argued that there was a set of more basic entities of which all molecules are constructed, th .....

El Nino La Nina
Number of words: 622 - Number of pages: 3

.... Nino or simply "cold event". When the warmer Pacific water is pushed westward by the trade winds, that water flows toward Asia and makes room for the colder, deep sea water, to rise and flow to the Americas. Because cold water doesn't evaporate, there is a large reduction in the formation of storm clouds. The weather patterns of La Nina are basically an exact opposite of El Nino. Strong high pressure systems form over the Pacific and low pressure systems are discovered over Australia. Westerly trade winds push the warm waters west. The once thick cloud cover over the equator is split .....
