Tap Water over Bottled Water Bottled water is nothing compared to tap. Bottled water isn't any purer than tap water. Here are valuable explanations on why tap is the best. Tap water is better for the environment than bottled water. Unlike bottled water, tap consists of natural minerals for the body. Also, tap leaves a better aftertaste in the consumer’s mouth. Tap water is not only the best tasting water, but it is also better on the ozone layer. Imagine the effect of bottles on the…

The assigned material for this week's article summary assignment is titled "Metal polishing: Do this, not that". The article is authored by CTD Mike, and was published on 06 Oct 11. The article appears on the cheaperthandirt.com website, and may be sourced at: http://blog.cheaperthandirt.com/metal-polishing-this/. The article begins with the assumption you have a task to perform that involves removing metal. Should I use the Dremel rotary tool? Stones? If you want to make sure you don't jack up…

Since I had such huge success with my salt water powered car, I decided to put a spin on the sale of my products. I decided to make something like a car, but also spice it up a little bit. What I did was I made it inflatable and able to run on water. With that being said it was a fully functional car, but if you ever wanted to take it across the water to maybe shorten a trip or just for pure enjoyment then you could do so. I didn’t really need this product to keep my car company at the top.…

reduce, or better yet, eliminate, all plastic products from their life. One need only bring a reusable container to a Bulk Barn location, and then fill it with a large variety of grains, flours, spices and dried beans, all while foregoing plastic packaging. Not only is this good for the environment, as it reduces the consumption of non-recyclable, hard to break down plastic, it is also significantly cheaper than purchasing the same foodstuff packaged in plastic from the grocery store.…

As you consume bottled water, you are also taking the risk to get cancer and various reproductive damages. Human body need water, it is our biological needs. However, people choose to drink bottled water is just for them to meet their secondary needs.

This lab module covers the subjects of optical spectroscopy of gas discharges and bond stiffness of materials. Optical spectroscopy can be observed using different types of equipment, such as, a spectrometer, a light collecting fiber, and tubes of certain types of gas (He, H2O, H2 and O2). The data collected displays the peak wavelengths for each of the gases, which can be used to determine the energy released when the electrons change energy levels. Overall, it was interesting to see how…

tonnes finish in oceans (Parker 2015). Only 15% of the total plastic production is recycled. The rest of the waste ends up in oceans, beaches, rivers and streets. In fact, the so-called Pacific Garbage Patch is constituted entirely by remnants of this material. Plastics are produced from fossil fuels, a source of clean energy, which causes emissions of greenhouse gases, and non-renewable because in a few years its reserves will be exhausted. But a solution to the problem of plastic waste could…

building is going to take place. The subsoil has to be able to carry these loads. The primary loads are natural loads, forces due to gravity. That are as follows; Dead load This is the permanent elements of the structure, a consistent load as the materials of the house will always be there. The architect can calculate this load. The objects involved are; • Floors • Walls • Ceilings • Slabs • Columns etc Imposed or live load This is the load of all the people in the building, for example in a…
