What is a RIN A Renewable Identification Number (RIN) is a serial number assigned to biofuel batches used to track its production, use, and trading activity. RINs are required by the United States Environmental Protection Agency under the Renewable Fuel Standard (RFS) program. RINs are credits used for compliance, and are the currency of the RFS program. The RFS program is an initiative created by Congress to reduce the emissions of greenhouse gases in efforts to expand the nations renewable…

When looking at a flashlight, it can be determined that the flashlight itself resembles a parabola. Flashlights are supposed to be able to focus on a single point, which is infinitely small. Since a flashlight is supposed to mirror a parabola, the flashlight has similar components as a parabola. The filament, which is the part of the flashlight that gives light, resembles the focus on a parabola. The filament is a three dimensional object so it is infinitely larger than a point, yet the filament…

Conventional methods of teaching are loathed for their intention of manipulation & control. Having seen through something of ourselves that we do not seem to trust, Education itself is a process, where the subjects’ (students) potential is being stimulated; curiosity gets directed towards their self-actualizations. This can be achieved via a single approach that conducts teacher-centered teaching, alternatively doable via multiple approaches such as self-supervised learning, which seems…

Light Color and Photosynthesis Rate Introduction: How do the wavelength of visible light affect photosynthesis? Photosynthesis, a process used by plants and other organisms to convert light energy into chemical energy that can be released later to fuel the organisms’ activities, depends upon the absorption of light by pigments found in the plant leaves. Pigments, such as chlorophyll and carotenoids, absorb and reflect light based on the wavelength of light. To be more explicit, photosynthesis…

BACKGROUND Photosynthesis is a solar-powered process that transforms energy from the sun into oxygen and carbohydrates (Harris-Haller). For the process to occur visible light, water and carbon dioxide have to be present. When photosynthesis has occurred the final product includes organic molecules such as glucose an oxygen (necessary for cellular respiration). There is a significant correlation between photosynthesis and cellular respiration. During photosynthesis, the plant uses carbon dioxide…

so they are the farthest apart). After extensive research, a man named James Clerk Maxwell found that one specific group of electromagnetic waves was the cause of visible light, or the cause of color. Maxwell also identified…

colors on a spectrum than we could see. Because light is a wave oscillates electric and magnetic fields it can be identified as an electromagnetic wave. Electromagnetic waves vary depending on frequency and the wavelength. There is a wide range of wavelengths in the electromagnetic spectrum which its frequency ranges from 1020 Hz to 106Hz. Transverse waves is an Electromagnetic wave theory of oscillating electric and magnetic field. These fields are put on a scale moving perpendicular to the…

sound share many common aspects. Today, we will study some of notable similarities and differences between the two. We can perceive both light and sound. We see through eyes and hear through ears. Both light and sound are waves. Light is an electromagnetic wave whereas sound is a mechanical wave. Light is created by interaction of electric and magnetic field. It does not require any medium for propagation, so it can propagate in free space. On the other hand, sound wave requires physical medium…

3.4. Friction Characteristics of the NCD, MCD and boron doped NCD Coatings against Alumina Balls The friction coefficient curves of NCD, MCD and boron-doped diamond films sliding with Al2O3 balls are shown in figure 4, figure 5 and figure 6, respectively, for a sliding speed of 8 m/s and a load of 1N, 5N and 10N, respectively. Figure 4 (a), figure 5 (a) and figure 6 (a) show the friction coefficient of NCD, MCD and BDNCD at 1 N, respectively. Figure 4 (b), figure 5 (b) and figure 6 (b) show…

What is refraction Refraction is the bending of light when it passes from one medium to another, as light travels through one medium such as air it will travel at a certain velocity but once it enters another medium such as glass it will change direction due to the increase in density of the medium which slows down the velocity of the light. The amount that the light bends as it travels through a medium depends on how drastic the difference in optical density is. For example if light were to…
