Electrical grid

About 30 CMEs hit Earth every year, but not directly enough to have a severe impact. Larger CMEs are a once-in-a-hundred year accordance based on past data. Even small CMEs could take out entire electrical grid and community communication systems. A large CME could have potentially severe effects which could wipe out entire areas of electricity or communication without restoration for decades. Human life would be set back to independent times, where…

Advancements of Second Industrial Revolution The benefits and opportunities of the Industrialized American society outweighed the risks and challenges of life. During 1840-1907, when industrialization of America was transpiring, there a considerable influx mass immigration into America. Which posed problems and advantages to American society and further contributed to the industrialization. The Industrial society lead to a number of new advances in technology and working strategies that…

My stance on “net neutrality” is that there is no information which should be prioritized over another. An example that I like to use is one of the electrical grid network. For instance, when you plug a device into – an electrical outlet, the amount of electricity received the same amount regardless of the device One doesn’t get priority over another. All receive the same amount of electricity. Yet people still seem to not understand what the internet truly looks like and how it really operates.…

BATTERY BANK THE CHEMISTRY According to (Wikipedia, 2016), the deep-cycle battery is a type of lead-acid battery designed to be regularly deeply discharged using the majority of its capacity (45% - 75% depending on manufacturing and construction). These batteries are able to be cycled down to 20% charge, but the best cost vs lifespan method is to keep the average cycle at approximately 45% discharge. There is an indirect correlation between the number of charge and discharge cycles the battery…

generation per capita rate in the world resulting 6 in shortage of power supply and heavy dependence on fossil fuels (79 % of total). At present, 7 only 10% of rural households and 50% of the country’s total population have access to national 8 power grid electricity. Separate researches conducted by Energy Commission of Nigeria and 9 Global Energy Network Institute (GENI) have concluded that 100% stable power supply from 10 renewable energy is possible in Nigeria. Yobe State (relatively rural…

Why We Should Not Use Coal For Electricity In Monroe County In 1748 coal was first mined in Richmond, Virginia. Since then coal has been a fundamental source of energy for America, powering us through the 19th and 20th century. But times have changed, we have achieved greater technologies that are pollution free, safer, and renewable. Coal is the number one contributor of fossil fuel CO2 emissions. For every ton of coal burned 2.86 tons of CO2 are released. This in turn strengthens the…

his mother was a housewife. Tesla's interest in electrical invention was spurred by his mother. She invented small household appliances in her spare time while her son was growing up. He was the fourth out of five children. He had one older brother named Dane, two older sisters, Milka and Angelica and one younger sister named Marica.…

Wind Energy and Dynamics Today many forms of energy exist that assist in creating power to be used on the industrial and commercial level, as well as power the many buildings that reside throughout the United States and the rest of the world. While there are an immense amount of methods that produce power/energy, one of the more recent developments pertains to that of wind energy. Wind energy is considered a renewable energy source because wind is always in supply, whereas fossil fuels such as…

collect the sun's energy at rates useful to lots of people. People are having concerns of black out and that people are having a hard time to figure in what cases and are risky if the electrical power is lost. Producing solar energy is as easy as harnessing the sun’s rays or photons and converting them into electrical energy. This is done through solar panels composed of photovoltaic (PV) or solar cells that are installed on your roof. When the sun hits a cell, the photons are converted to…

Rain occurs when condensed moisture in the atmosphere falls to the ground in separate, visible drops and it provides us with another source of water and can be used to provide plants with water such as in rainforests or countryside. The hydrologic cycle allows for rain to form and pour down in different areas. Water from oceans, swamps, lakes, rivers are evaporated and turn into water vapor due to the water being heated by the sun or other means. This water vapor rises into the troposphere…
