Green technology is currently in the infant stages with several countries competing to create new…

had to keep driving. Leo and Karli started talking and then both of them heard whooshing winds.

Wind strength of Gothic Cathedrals - Coccia, Simona - Engineering Failure Analysis. Sep 2015, Vol. 55, p1-25. 25p. Abstract: The research investigates the ancient Gothic cathedral and the formulation of its structure regarding the wind resistance. Experiments on the Cathedral of Notre-Dame of Amiens,as it is one of the most significant examples of the Gothic Cathedrals, concluded that the skeleton or the design of this cathedral and all the cathedrals, in general, is showing that it was…

rotational momentum). The rotating air molecules collide with the hot air rising from the fire and the flame twists into the shape of a tornado” (“Steve”). Fire tornados actually happen in the real world, most commonly found during forest fires when winds blow in between trees. I tested to see if increasing rotational speed and adding vents to the bowl would increase flame length because both would promote air flow, which would allow…

The universe as we know it only consists of one planet that can sustain life--our Earth. It’s the one planet that humans and animals alike call home, and it can be pretty astounding too. But, as time goes on and technology develops, people begin to take the Earth and its environment for granted. In today’s world especially, the environment suffers at the cost of economic success. In China, the improving, yet short-sighted economy has directly led to the destruction of the environment, but with…

Sustainable energy increases the option for hydro, wind and solar projects that are becoming more dominant in developed and developing countries. Countries have their own role is assisting their self-energy needs, but simultaneously needs to contribute to reduce greenhouse gas and carbon emissions globally. China has one of the largest economies in the world, they burn the most fossil fuels, but also are leaders in renewable energy projects such as wind power. Africa however, is at a much…

To see the similarities and differences between wind patterns in the Northern and Southern Hemispheres alongside with explaining the major wind belts. Material: • Map of North America with longitude and latitude • Drawing compass Procedure: 1. View the map from the lab given. The map represents the barometric pressures at 5000 feet in North America on a precise day in February. 2. Use the Web to get another map of North America that covers the same approximate area shown in the map given in the…

distinct tremendous natural power, shaping the planet known as Bhumiya. Earth created the mountains and rich soil. Water created the rivers, lakes, and sea.
