Solar Energy Energy is considered as the most important issue of the 21st century. About 85% of today’s modern world use of energy comes from fossil fuels (Blah Blah). These particular resources, fossil fuels, are finite in quantity, and has been a major cause of air pollution and global warming. Scientists are finding alternative sources of energy to solve the century’s puzzle, a resource which is renewable, natural and efficient such as solar energy. Over 2700 years ago, people have been…

2. RESEARCH ON THE STRUCTURE OF METALS AND TYPES OF BONDING. What are metals? 24% of our planet’s mass is metal. They are used as mainly because of their properties; metals are strong, ductile, have high melting points and are excellent conductors of electricity. Other properties of metals are given below: • Can be made stronger by alloys and heat treatment. • Easily machined. • Most of them are heavy. • Susceptible to corrosion. Metals can be divided into two; Ferrous and Non-ferrous. Ferrous…

into an electrolyte solution, ions of electrolyte move, and thus, electric current flows through the electrolytic solution. The electrolytic solution and the metal conductors exhibit resistance to the passage of the current; both of which obey Ohm's law. The reciprocal of resistance is called electrical conductance. The unit of electrical conductance is Siemens (S) or ohm-1 or mho. If a solution is placed between two parallel electrodes having cross sectional area A and distance L apart…

his or her lifetime in housing, transportation, electrical use and consumer products everything from cellphones to tablets to computers to vehicles. Copper is a critical resource important to our future as we continue to find new uses for copper, from helping to build renewable sources of energy to enhancing medical devices. Copper is used in diverse ways in many areas of life. Copper is a great electrical conductor and so it is used in electrical wiring and electronics. Copper is also highly…

how electricity was came to be. Benjamin Franklin, as smart as he is, did not invent electricity himself, but he had a key role in discovering what it has been broken down into today. Benjamin Franklin gave us many electrical terms that we used today like the "battery", "charge", "conductor", "condenser", and the "armature." First of all, lights run on electricity. Lights revolve around our classrooms, homes, and the places that we work at. Imagine sitting in your room at night without lights,…

Misappropriation Trade secret misappropriation is different from violations of other IP rights, since by definition trade secrets are secret, while patents and registered copyrights and trademarks are publicly available. Unlike other forms of IP [2], trade secret is basically a do it yourself form of protection. You do not register with the government to secure your trade secret. You simply keep the information confidential and personal. Trade secret protection lasts for as long as the secret is…

The first portion of the lightbulb is the base, which is a brass or aluminum component where electrical contact is made. There is one lead-in wire that is soldered or welded to the rim of the base interior. The other lead-in wire is soldered to the center contact. The two portions are insulted from each other by a glass insulator, which appears as…

Most people know that heat moves from hot objects to cold objects, but do they know how that heat is transferred? There are only three ways that heat can be transferred: conduction, convection, and radiation. Today I will endeavor to inform the reader on how these three different methods of heat transfer work and provide examples of where they occur in the real world. The most prevalent, and most commonly recognized, form of heat transfer is conduction. Conduction is the transfer of heat…

operation and safety as internal safety of the aircraft is an inherent function of management. Modifications and improvement in safety is a continual process however there are much safety kept in the form clothing, noise control, temperature and electrical control. For the aircraft there are fabrics for fire safety and precaution like Nomex, Kevlar and PBI. For fire safety and protection at high temperature PBI is the most preferred as it is the engineered blend of Nomex and Kevlar (Jackson,…

where The hydrodynamics of a fluid is expressed in the form of conservation laws of mass, momentum and energy.The magnetohydrodynamic phenomena are a consequence of the mutual interaction of the fluid flow and the magnetic field. As is well known, a conductor crossing magnetic field lines gives rise to an induced electric field, which causes an electric current in the conducting fluid. The following are the Maxwell,s equations ∇⋅D = ρcf …
