...brook ambaw project 1: The use of electricity and magnetism in transportation Electricity is without out a doubt one of the greatest discoveries of human kind. We as human beings are forever in debt to Benjamin Franklin who discovered electricity. It is nearly impossible to imagine civilization without electricity. As anything in life, even if we literally use electricity for every aspect of our lives, it is easy to sometimes forget how much we are really depend on it for our survival in life. Electricity has been revolutionizing our our way of living since its inception. Now, when it comes to transportation by using electricity and magnetism, which is the focus of my essay, there is an exponential room to grow. In the near future, electricity and magnetism is going to revolutionize our transportation system radically. The most important issues facing our world in the future in regard to transportation is reducing the amount of emission caused by an ever increasing usage of transportation and our dependence on it. Not only emission is going to be the focal point of problems caused by transportation but also reducing the number of vehicles driven by people will be at the heart of our future struggles too. As historians and energy scientists noted dully, as societies advance more and more, they are going to use more concentrated forms of energy, for example, instead of gasoline they are going to use rocket fuel. In regard to transportation, cars are leading the way when...

...------------------------------------------------- Electricity Lightning is one of the most dramatic effects of electricity. Electricity is a general term encompassing a variety of phenomena resulting from the presence and flow of electric charge. These include many easily recognizable phenomena, such as lightning, static electricity, and the flow of electrical current in an electrical wire. In addition, electricity encompasses less familiar concepts such as the electromagnetic field and electromagnetic induction. The word is from the New Latin ēlectricus, "amber-like"coined in the year 1600 from the Greek ήλεκτρον (electron) meaning amber(hardened plant resin), because static electricity effects were produced classically by rubbing amber. Usage In general usage, the word "electricity" adequately refers to a number of physical effects. In scientific usage, however, the term is vague, and these related, but distinct, concepts are better identified by more precise terms: * Electric charge: a property of some subatomic particles, which determines their electromagnetic interactions. Electrically charged matter is influenced by, and produces, electromagnetic fields. * Electric current: a movement or flow of electrically charged particles, typically measured in amperes. * Electric field: an influence produced by an electric charge on other charges in its vicinity. * Electric potential: the capacity of an electric field to do work on an electric charge, typically...

...around the sun (although at the time they were discovered, it was thought that everything revolved around the earth); albeit all of these stars and planets were discovered before Galileo’s telescope. The tool still helped gain better calculations of the stars, which helped Galileo support Nicolaus Copernicus’ heliocentric (sun-centered) solar system as opposed to the geocentric (earth-centered) solar system that people in those times believed. With Isaac Newton, one of the most famous physicists, discovering most of laws of motion through his studies in astronomy, Philosophiae Naturalis Principia Mathematica, one of the greatest works in the Scientific Revolution, was born. From Newtonian physics, theories of fluid mechanics, electricity and magnetism, and most importantly, quantum mechanics. Further along the line of the history of telescopes, humans eventually needed to see deeper into space. This was revolutionary because now mankind wasn’t just looking up into the constellations and the movement of the sun and the moon, now they were actually...

Introduction Attention Getter: Who else in this room is tired of spending money on gas, or any other plague that accompanies modern day vehicles? Relevance to Audience: What if I were to tell you of a way where you didn't have to pay for gas or even rely on it for a source of fuel? To even charge your car during school. Credibility Material: Being someone that reads and keeps up to date I have read quite a many articles upon the topic of how to do so. Preview of Speech: That is why today I’m going to be covering electric vehicles, their benefits to us as well as the planet, and how they work. ( Link: Let’s start by looking at what they are.) Body EV’s are cars that are fully powered by electricity and can be recharged even by a common house outlet. Tesla Motors, one of the leading companies in the production and advancement of EV’s, stated that “the use of solar panels can cut the cost of recharging one of their cars to nearly free”. Tesla offers many options for their cars, ranging from the choice of power windows, electric seats, and even having the option of different battery sizes. However, there are other companies that produce such vehicles. Another source of electricity powered vehicles is a company called Polaris. Most of the cars/vehicles that tesla and polaris produce are very advanced in many ways. Vehicles gathering 200 miles of battery life from an hour...

...Anton Mesmer also known as the grandfather of hypnosis. He was an Austrian doctor who was a charismatic and at times controversial personality. He believed that the human body produced an invisible magnetic fluid and the magnets could restore the balance of magnetic fluid and this would cure the patient’s illness. He soon discovered that he could reach the same successful results by passing his hands over the patient which he did for hours at times. He named this method “animal magnetism”. He used strange mechanisms, ethereal music and created a séance-like atmosphere all of which aided in inducing trance. He was able to perform many cures using the technique that became named after him, Mesmerism. However, the medical establishment at the time, Viennese Medical Council, could find no logical reason for the results he got, and exposed him as a fraud. The continuing interest of hypnosis by names such as; Abbe Faria( who suggested that the effects of what Mesmer and his followers said to be animal magnetism were in fact due to suggestions made by the practitioners). James braid (who came up with the term “hypnosis” from the Greek word hypnos, meaning sleep. Braid, realising hypnosis is...

...Daisy Dai Grade11 Class1 Physics Whether the Gravity is the product of the Electromagnetism I. Introduction Gravity and electromagnetism are both the fundamental forces in the world; they are unique in physics and thought of some connections between them by some scientists. However, according to the studies, gravity isn’t a product of electromagnetism because they are juxtaposed to each other in physics’ identifications. From the formula (G=mg) created by Newton, the gravity is related only to mass. And this leads concept of gravitational fields. But the electromagnetic force are definitely different from that one. It is related not to mass but to the electric charge（F=qvB), and this leads to the concept of electric field. Since the Earth exists the gravitational field, the electric field and the magnetic field which don’t have any affiliation with each other by observing the formulas, they will not have connection with each other. But for electric and magnetic force, the sources of magnetic fields are electrical currents, caused by moving electric charges or small dipoles associated with molecular and atomic structure. So, there is electromagnetic force that electromagnetism exists in the universe. However, these forces actually have connections with each other instead of non-connection relationship. In fact, gravity is not the subordinate relationship with electromagnetism but the similar ones. All magnetic...

...Magnetic Levitation Emerging Technologies By Nick Presson Introduction Magnetic levitation has been around for years, but with advances in technology it may become a part of everyday life. The main emphasis for magnetic levitation is for transportation. Magnetically levitated ground transportation, or “Maglev”, is an advanced mode of surface high speed transportation whereby a vehicle gliding above a guideway is suspended, guided, and propelled by magnetic forces. Can you imagine a train that that actually floats in air 4 to 6 inches in the air and travels up to 300 mph. This technology can reduce air and highway congestion, air pollution, and petroleum use. Traditional Systems The transportation system in the United States has been much admired around the world. Our extensive highway and air systems have facilitated business and leisure travel and contributed to a high quality of life for many Americans. In 1990, 429 million passengers traveled 342 billion passenger miles on commercial airlines. Americans traveled 2 trillion passenger miles my car, truck, bus, and public transit, and 6.1 billion passenger miles on Amtrak. As population have grown and shifted, however, the traditional systems have become stressed. Congestion on highways and at airports, especially since September 11, not only wastes time and fuel increases, but also constrains mobility to the extent that economic...

...rest of the world more modern. Proof of this can be seen in more efficient trade & transport and mass production that were a product of Industrial Revolution. This essay will seek to demonstrate the most significant effect these two components had on modernity and how they shaped Europe, and the rest of the world. The time period covered by the Industrial Revolution varies according to Historians, but according to Eric Hobsbawm, it started in Britain in the 1780s and fulfilled its potential in the 1830s or 1840. Some important effects of these two components comprise of, but are not limited to include: technological and chemical innovations, improved trade, transportation and increase in wealth etc. Almost all aspects of daily life were influenced in some way by the Industrial Revolution; hence it marks a major turning point in human history. Industrial Revolution was an achievement of sustained economic growth that began the industrialization of the European economy. Growth did not reach a plateau in Britain as it did in other countries in Europe. Depressions and recessions were temporary and the economy still grew. Industrialization raised the standard of living and overcame the poverty that most Europeans, who lived during the 18th century and earlier, had taken for granted. The continental writers observed what had taken place in Britain industrially was the economic equivalent of the political events in France, hence an Industrial Revolution. This had...

...Question 1 How do you choose a good research topic? Answer to Q.1 HOW TO CHOOSE A GOOD RESEARCH TOPIC There is a plethora of research topics a researcher could choose from. It is however very imperative to understand that not all research topics are necessarily good and “researchable”. Some research topics may be very interesting and researchable for one researcher but it may not be advisable for another researcher to undertake studies on a related topic. A researcher must make a lot of considerations and should be guided by certain factors in order to arrive at a good researchable topic. The researcher can be guided by the following criteria in trying to choose a good research topic. Interest in a particular topic or “problem area” Soliciting ideas from other people (brainstorming) Relevance of the study Review of work done already on the topic (to avoid duplication of research) Political acceptability of the study Urgency of data required Feasibility of the study Ethical or moral issues Interest in a Particular Topic or “Problem Area” The topic a researcher chooses to study must be one he has a good deal of interest in. There is more motivation to conduct research in an area where there is genuine interest than in one where there is none. It is difficult to sustain consistent progress in that topic where the researcher has little or no interest at all. Thus, without a topic of interest the researcher will have difficulties completing the study in a good...
