concern about the continuous consumption of fossil fuels, coupled with issues of environmental depletion and low energy efficiency for electricity power generation and use. This has increased the use of alternative energy resources (wind, biomass, solar and hydro systems) in forms of distributed energy resources (DERs) or distributed generators (DGs) [1]. However, these distributed generators come with safe and efficient system operation challenges, which requires effective management, these…
open to create the universe and the earth. The Big Bang Theory explains that the Universe exploded and was very hot. .One believes in a superior being and the other believes in no ultimate being. Part B: Scientists believe the formation of the Solar System started around 4.6 billion years ago. They believe there was a huge molecular cloud and that a small part collapsed, possibly due to a shock wave from a close by supernova. This is known in science as a gravitational collapse which is…
Sleepless nights spent ruminating and regurgitating past events all the while ruing their aftermath often drained Surina the next morning; nonetheless, on the first full day in space, she awoke restored. Certainly, her restful sleep was not entirely due to the profound physical exhaustion from the lift off to space. Rather, after her consciousness roamed amongst the stars, she gained a fresh perspective that allowed her to rest from the burden of her sorrows for the first time in many years.…
site is: Astronomy for Kids. The URL for the site is: http://www.kidsastronomy.com/solar_system.htm. The user of this site would be: the students. On this site the student will be able to find information about the sun or any of the planets in our solar system. Another aspect of the site is that students can learn about the different moons of the planets. This site also contains interesting information about Saturn’s rings. Finally, the students will be able to learn about asteroids, comets,…
researched product that has been created is called Flat Photovoltaic Cells, more commonly known as solar panels. These cells, created by Bauder, have been implemented in thousands of houses and company properties. The product continues to be researched and refined as they become more demanded and the market continues to grow. Flat photovoltaic cells are manufactured by the…
The source I chose to evaluate is an article called “Is Pluto a planet?” written by Graham Rax. This source was published by Kalmbach Publishing Company in 1999, and mainly talked about is the Pluto should be consider as a planet or not. For this paragraph, it mainly talks about what is planet, what the figure does the Pluto has, and it give a conclusion that we can’t define the Pluto as a planet or treat is as a member of Kuiper Belt. We can tell that the article was published by a formal…
People may suggest that everyday energy used is from power plants, which stores energy to power a whole city. It is usually thought of renewable resources, such as water, the sun, wind, etc., to be nothing but ordinary resources. Without individuals really thinking about it, they can use the everyday resources to power energy through many types of technologies used today. People have created machinery that can use the renewable resources for energy. There may be disadvantages, but current energy…
The majority of us have always wondered how this time we often talk about became what it is now. Different cultures created calendars to reflect time within their cultures. Whether it is Egyptian, Gregorian or Mayan, they are all similar in the same way that these all made time according to their culture. They all contributed an idea of what our calendar is now. These cultures helped to improve by adding the significant symbol in which they believed in, and what the cultures thought were…
A spiral galaxy is a certain kind of galaxy originally described by Edwin Hubble in his 1936 work The Realm of the Nebulae and, as such, forms part of the Hubble sequence. Spiral galaxies consist of a flat, rotating disc containing stars, gas and dust, and a central concentration of stars known as the bulge.(Sloan) Spiral galaxies resemble spiraling pinwheels, nearly 77% of space consists of spiral galaxies. Though the stars and other visible material contained in such a galaxy lie mostly on a…
Summary Assignment #1 Sunspot Cycle: A Brief History In 1610, shortly after viewing the sun for the first time through a telescope, Galileo became the first European to observe sunspots, which are visibly darker, cooler areas on the sun. A little over 200 years later (in 1843), amateur German astronomer Samuel Heinrich Schwabe discovered that there is a cyclical, eleven, and by extension to a full cycle, twenty-two year pattern to the variation of sunspot counts known as the sunspot cycle. In…
