Solar Energy

Solar cells today are made out of one of the earth’s most common ingredients, silicon. Silicon used in producing solar cells is very carefully prepared. The flow of electricity takes place when the cell is brought into sunlight, and the electrons become active and the molecules become stimulated. Then the silicon wall directs the current. Henceforth electricity.
In the fut .....

News Article Summary
This article entitled "Horatio Alger lives" is basically a survey
correlation study done on two distinct social classes; sons of wealthy fathers
and sons of lower income fathers. The goal in this research was to determine
which sons of the two distinct social groups mentioned, were to likely make more
money in the future. Therefore, they surveyed 400,000 males age 16 and 19 that
was still living with their fathers. After the eleven year period the same
groups of men were again surveyed, and their income .....

Deaths and injuries to livestock and other animals, thousands of forest and brush fires, as well as millions of dollars in damage to buildings, communications systems, power lines, and electrical systems are also the result of lightning. Finally, the threat of lightning causes many work stoppages and lost production increasing the time and cost required to
prepare NASA spacecraft for flight.
Benjamin Franklin performed the first systematic, scientific study of lightning during the second half of the 18th century. Prior to that time, el .....

Saturn

opaque cloud layer is an extensive, clear hydrogen-helium atmosphere. Data
on the internal heat flux, the detailed gravity field, and the observed
upper-atmosphere hydrogen-helium ratio satisfy a model of the interior
where the ratio of hydrogen to helium decreases with depth. The gas
density gradually increases downward and the gas transforms into a liquid.
Further down the pressures increase to a critical level, and there the
hydrogen becomes metallic. A small core of silicate material probably
exists at the center.
The Saturnian atmosphere is characterize .....

Life Sciences SIG: Gut Issues - Essay About Dietary Fibers
Number of words: 534 - Number of pages: 2.... do not break down into sugars in the human digestive system and then
course through the blood stream fueling muscles and nerves. Rather, when
eaten they tumble intact through the stomach and small intestine and end up
in the colon where billions of bacterial feed on them - in turn producing
intestinal gas. No wonder, then, that dietary fibre has been unwelcome in
many of history's nicer neighborhoods.
Even 20th century doctors reasoned that since the bulky material
provided not a single nutrient, it would only strain already troubled guts.
Accordingly, they recommended low-fibre .....

Environmental Satire

It is said that in the future, with global warming, temperatures outdoors will be too hot to survive in. But what is the future? Is the future tomorrow, maybe next month, or next century? The fact is by the time all of the problems that we worry about surface, we will have been dead for hundreds of years. We’ll be safe somewhere in the afterlife with our children and their children. We don’t have to worry about things like polar ice caps melting and flooding the entire earth .....

Light

¨ When passing though matter, is slowed down by brief interactions, and so appears to travel more slowly.
¨ This "slowing down" is accounted for by the index of refraction of the matter.
's properties can at first seem confusing and inconsistent because of
the unique nature of light: light has the properties of both a wave and a
particle. In some situations, light's behavior is more easily explained by
thinking of light as a particle. In other situations, its behavior can only be
explained if light is thought of as a wave. This duality of light between a

A Discussion On Earthquakes
Number of words: 1189 - Number of pages: 5.... can more accurately predict the arrival of earthquakes.
Before contemplating how earthquakes might possibly be prevented, it is
essential that the process and formation of and earthquake be understood.
Earthquakes are caused when the earth's crustal plates move, rub, or push
against each other. The earth's crust (the outer layer of the earth) is made up
of seven major plates and approximately thirteen smaller ones. The name plate
is used to describe these portions of the earth's crust because they are
literally “plates” or sections, composed of dirt and rock. These plates float
on .....
