TELL YOUR GOVERNOR: WE NEED CLEAN BUSES FOR HEALTHY KIDS >> NAME – We have an incredible opportunity to take the fight against climate change to the most local level! After Volkswagen cheated federal emissions tests for years and lied about how much they polluted our air, they are paying back the people they cheated with a $14.7 billion settlement, a third of which is destined for programs that transition to clean energy vehicles. LCV’s Chispa program has put forward a bold proposal to…

Galvanism is animating a dead corps by electrocution throughout the body. Luigi Galvani was not the first person to think of pulsing electricity through the body, but he was the person who determined that electricity was present within the body itself. The electricity animates the dead body and causes it to move through muscle movement. Luigi Galvani founded this idea in 1791. Genetic engineering is a variety of techniques that cut up and combine different genetic material to create or change a…

Activity 3: Bullroarers Lesson Objective: Students will simulate the function a propeller by creating an ancient signaling device known as a bullroarer. Set-Up: Each student will need one craft stick, one index card, one rubber band and 2 paper clips. Groups of students can share measuring tape, string, markers and masking tape. Demo and discussion: Bullroarers have been used by many cultures, throughout many continents, for thousands of years. Anthropologists, scientists who study ancient…

Problem: The research questions being examined in this investigation is, How can we generate electricity by using Potatoes to light an electric bulb? Background Information: How does a potato battery work? The copper (Cu) particles pull in electrons more than the zinc (Zn) molecules. On the off chance that you put a portion of copper and a piece of zinc in contact with each other, numerous electrons go from the zinc to the copper. As they focus on the copper, the electrons repulse each other.…

*** Luigi Galvani used an electrostatic machine that produced sparks on frog legs and began to investigate the muscular contractions produced by electricity. Galvani discovered that the frog leg would contract if a scalpel touched the frog’s nerves when the machine was on.
 More comprehensive experiments by Galvani showed that a dead frog’s leg could be made to twitch by electrical stimulation. Galvani also showed that the same twitching could be produced by touching the leg with a copper hook…

Energy powers many objects such as car batteries, an even your home. "Energy Story" also talks about how all matter is made up of atoms, and that atoms are made of smaller particles. In the story "Conducting Solutions" it talks about how an electric current is a flow of electrical charge. The story also talks about electrons are subatomic particles with…

emissions between the electric and gas cars has played a key role in determining which type is more environmentally-safe. Vehicle exhaust has brought many discussions because of its contribution to climate change. Due to electric vehicles splitting their power between electricity and gas, they emit fewer greenhouse gases and have a smaller carbon footprint (Duivenvoorden, 2014). Gasoline cars account for much of the dangerous exhaust gases entering the atmosphere. However, electric cars are not…

Gasoline Engines vs. Diesel Engines Almost everyone has at some point gone shopping for a new vehicle. Purchasing a new vehicle can be a very stressful time for some people. When starting the search for that perfect vehicle, take into account the many options available and start to narrow the search criteria. With all of the new technology today those choices can seem almost endless. The first thing that is usually done is to start with the obvious, car or truck? For this example we will say a…
