    Did you there are 29,440 megawatts of wind energy that are installed in the United States and about 6,000 megawatts are being built are now. The United states has the most wind energy in the world and are approximately 2,000 megawatts ahead of China. Not only does the United States have the most wind energy in the world, they also create the most new jobs which was around 35,000 of them. There are a lot of good things that can come from using wind energy. Also you might wonder why we use wind…

    I believe that the human population is on it’s way to reaching carrying capacity and we as a nation will continue to grow exponentially and we will exhaust our resources inevitably. There is no one who knows exactly when the human population will exceed all resources but scientists are able to predict what the limit is and what would happen. As of 2011 scientists estimated that the maximum carrying capacity for the world would be around 9-10 billion people. The problem with so many humans…

    Wind Turbines I am going to do the wind turbines. The materials that I use are the DC motor of the blonder, Duroport, paint, a bottle and silicone. To do the process I use the Scientific methods and the engineering methods. The methods that I use are this ones ask a question, test hypothesis, hypothesis, analyze results, draw conclusion and communicate results. The engineering methods are asked, imagined, plan, make, and improved. I think that this project is going to help more in the farms…

    Population control is any method that is used to control the type and number of people. Over the past few years there has been a slight increase in world population. Overpopulation has always been a concern (Watson). Many people fear that there will not be enough resources to support the human population. Even with this knowledge, people still decide to have children. This is a human right. Every single person on this small planet has the right to bear children and this right cannot be taken…

    resources, humans would overshoot their food or resources. When this happened, he stated that there would be a catastrophic disturbance and excessive dieback within the human population would occur to compensate for exceeding the earth’s carrying capacity. Malthus believed that the limiting factors on the exponential growth of the human population included disease or famine, and social constraints including marriages late in life or insufficient resources for individuals…

    Wind Energy Matt Little 12-3-14 For my final paper of the semester I’ve decided to go with option number 1 on the assignment choice. As for my renewable energy method of choice I’m going to go with wind energy. Wind energy is by far my favorite source that we’ve discussed this semester. Bio-energy would be a close second but I don’t consider that to be as sustainable as wind energy. My paper will flow in the same direction as the instructions for the paper. I’ll start with how it can…

    People may suggest that everyday energy used is from power plants, which stores energy to power a whole city. It is usually thought of renewable resources, such as water, the sun, wind, etc., to be nothing but ordinary resources. Without individuals really thinking about it, they can use the everyday resources to power energy through many types of technologies used today. People have created machinery that can use the renewable resources for energy. There may be disadvantages, but current energy…

    The carrying capacity (K) of the Kaibab Plateau for the dear at the beginning was about 45,000. ‘ Once the population passed K it would not be able to sustain itself. This is due to an imbalance in the ecosystem. An increase in deer population would cause a decrease in the grasses, shrubs, and trees. This would cause the deer to eventually die out because there will not be enough food to sustain the high deer population. The deer population had the highest reproductive growth rate between…

    would design and carry out an experiment to identify a metal. In order to determine a sample of unknown metal, we could perform the same experiment as part two and compare the specific heat capacity calculated to that of known metal quantities. Furthermore, should the sample metal have a specific heat capacity near two different substances such as the .0092 cal/gºC for copper and zinc we could also measure mass and volume, to calculate density and compare it to known densities of metal. …

    Heat of Combustion of Magnesium Hypothesis: Hess’s law states that “the enthalpy change for the conversion of reactants to products is the same whether the conversion occurs in one step or several steps” (DiGiuseppe et al,2012,p.314 ). A series of two experiments will perform in this lab in order to find ΔH1 and ΔH2 . In addition, ΔH3 will be obtained by reference. It is predicted that the combustion of magnesium will have a negative enthalpy, since combustion is an exothermic reaction. Also…
