Solar Energy Informative Speech
Heather Smith Informative Outline Michelle Talasis Topic: Solar Energy General Purpose: To inform Specific Purpose:To inform the uses of Solar Energy to my audience. Thesis:When all of our natural fossil fuels are low or gone, solar energy will be one of the leading sources of energy that we will need in the future. Introduction Attention Getter: Natural fossil fuels, such as coal used for burning, oil used for gasoline, and natural gas used to heat and warm houses, are a threat to the Earth and everything in it. Fossil fuels pollute the air and they are non-renewable and non-recyclable.We need different energy sources that are renewable and recyclable for our future existence. Unlike fossil fuels, solar energy is renewable and recyclable. When all of our natural fossil fuels are scare or gone, solar energy will be one of the leading sources of energy that we will need in the future. With all of the technology we have today, we can develop different ways to use and harness these ener gy sources. Reason to Listen:Solar energy is making a big impact on lives today all over the world. The development of solar energy in all ways and technologies is making our world a cleaner, safer, and less dependent nation.A. Thesis Statement: When all of our natural fossil fuels are low or gone, solar energy will be one of the leading sources of energy that we will need in the future. B. Credibility Statement: My dad is an electrician that puts up solar energy plants for businesses. I had to research for this paper. C. Preview of Main Points: 1. First I will explain solar energy technology and how it can be used in houses. 2. Next, I will explain the uses of solar energy and how it will be helpful saving water. 3. Finally, I will explain the unique uses of solar energy in transportation and military weapons. II. Body A.People have created new technologies for others to use in their homes, vehicles or buildings. 1. One of the technologies that people have created to be energy effi cient is the photovoltaic cells or ââ¬Å"solar cellsâ⬠which use sunlight and convert it into electricity automatically. PVs can be used in anything from watches to an electric grid. They can also be used to provide energy to places where power lines cannot be attached to buildings. ââ¬Å"Thermal technologies use the heat from the sun and use it directly in space or water heating in homes and buildings or it is directly converted into electricity,â⬠says Fischer and Finnell.Thermal technologies are also used for agriculture needs that farmerââ¬â¢s livestock or crops require. With solar energy being used in electrical, heating, and transportation applications, the idea for an energy efficient house would be more probable. Energy efficient improvements can cut energy costs by over 40% in most affordable housing. They help reduce health risks from mold, dust mites, radon, and combustion by-products and other contaminants. These houses have less condensation, and better m oisture control and temperature. These energy improvements usually cost less than the savings they offer on utility bills.Increasing the value of a home is a great investment-paying high energybills are not. Transition:Now that I have discussed new solar technologies that people use in their homes, and for electricity, I will now explain the uses of solar energy in water. A. Solar power has helped with electricity and heat, but it can also help with the growing need for fresh water. 1. ââ¬Å"Instead of using fossil fuels and electricity to desalinate water, engineers at the University of Florida have developed a system that uses a gravity-induced vacuum and solar energy. â⬠(ââ¬Å"Here Comes the Sunâ⬠) The desalination of water is the same process as nature. . A U-shaped pipe is place in two different containers, one side in salt water and the other in fresh water. ii. A vacuum is then surrounded by a circulator that heats the saltwater and the salt water is then evapora ted. iii. The evaporated steam is then condensed and finally the fresh water drips down into a tank. This system have been proved to be 90% efficient, while the solar ââ¬Å"stillsâ⬠only proved to be 50% efficient. Water has been desalinized by solar power for more efficient and inexpensive drinking water and fresh water supply, but it is also being detoxified by solar power for other usages around the house.Detoxification of water by solar power has proved to be one of the most promising methods to disinfect water, an earth-friendly operation and it does not create harmful emissions. ââ¬Å"One way was ZED or Zero Effluent Discharge,â⬠says Inamdar and Singh. i. ZED disposed of inadequately cleaned waste water that is contaminating fresh water resources, the waste water will recycle water properly if it is forced to generate fresh water from the waste water generated by them, and it is economical to use recycled water than to pay for consuming fresh water and wasting was te water.Transition:Now that we have learned the uses of solar energy in water, I will explain the uses solar energy in military weapons and transportation. Solar power is being used for disinfecting water and electricity, but for transportation and military weapons? 1. Solar power has been used in cruise boats and ferries. ââ¬Å"The first boat that used solar power was in Australian waters that won a contract to build another ferry to carry passengers between San Francisco Harbor and Alcatraz Island,â⬠explains Thwaites, a science writer and broadcaster in Australia. i.The guy who built the solar powered boat is Robert Dane. ii. He wanted to build a boat that was powered by solar power and wind power. iii. He called it the Solar Sailor, which has an electric motor they can power to drive the propeller properly, meaning the boat will be more efficient and easy to move and back up without stalling them. Solar Sailor technology also helped the Navy create UOVs or Unmanned Ocean Vehicles. i. These vehicles could be used to collect data for climate research, ocean exploration, offshore oil exploration and production and even surveillance of pipelines and telecommunications.Solar power is also being used in the US Military and even some weapons too. ââ¬Å"The US Military have installed black and blue solar panels to use in solar-powered battlefield radios and even in tents with solar panels woven into their fabric to power military equipment,â⬠says John Naish, an environmental campaigner. The solar panels are also being used for sensors and radars, which saves troops from being predictable targets when they regularly refuel generators. I. Conclusion Review of Main Points: Today, I explained how solar energy technology can be used in houses.Second, I discussed the uses of solar energy and how it will be helpful saving water. Finally, I talked about the unique uses of solar energy in transportation and military weapons. Restate Thesis:When all of our nat ural fossil fuels are low or gone, solar energy will be one of the leading sources of energy that we will need in the future. Closure: If we donââ¬â¢t continue to develop different ways and technology to lessen our needs on all of our natural fossil fuels, water, natural gas, and the environment, we will soon be living in our own human and mechanical waste.

Community Medicine: Much More than a Mere Clinical Subject Essay
Abstract: Medical doctors bear a great burden of caring for both the healthy and ill in the society. An avaricious doctor who has thrown basic ethics to the winds is an abomination to the profession. Over the years as knowledge progressed, the art of medicine slowly changed from a ââ¬Å"philosophyâ⬠to a ââ¬Å"technologyâ⬠with emphasis on machines and procedures. There is a danger of a contemporary doctor running amok, treating his patients as diseases and harassing them with the latest technology. The fathers of the medical world after careful thought put together some rules, principles and precepts to help make a modern doctor behave rationally and responsibly. Community Medicine was thus born of a need to help medical professionals strike a balance between man, medicine, society and environment. It is the ââ¬Å"religionâ⬠of the medical world! Community Medicine helps us adopt at different times promotive, preventive, curative or rehabilitative roles depending on the need we perceive in the world surrounding us. It may be overwhelming to realize that our understanding of clinical tools(diagnostic or therapeutic; preventive or curative) must be much more than all the specialists put together if we are to do any justice to the common man in his family or community! It may be sobering thought to realize that when medicine finally becomes thoroughly commercial, we will have to play a significant role in moderating our colleagues and the medical industry to ensure that our communities remain healthy. Key words: Community Medicine, philosophy, religion, clinical subject Dr. Samson Sanjeeva Rao Nallapu, Associate Professor, Dept. of Community Medicine, NRI Medical College, Guntur District, AP State, India Man is made in Godââ¬â¢s image and is essentially good. However due to the various stressors of every day life, man tends to stray from being good. His socio-economic position, expectations of life, experiences in life and desires etc. make him behave anywhere between ââ¬Å"not so goodâ⬠to down right evilâ⬠; from ââ¬Å"not so satisfiedâ⬠to ââ¬Å"immoralâ⬠, ââ¬Å"covetousâ⬠ââ¬Å"greedyâ⬠and ââ¬Å" self-indulgentâ⬠. To overcome this we have religion. All religions fundamentally advise man to be contented and moral in his relatively short span of life. Every religion propagates a set of laws which help man choose between good and evil. They show men a way to live in harmony with his neighbor and his environment. Religion also promises man eternal life and riches in the hereafter as awards for a life spent being and doing good. By now, if you are still reading, you may wonder where I am heading. Well. This simple analogy can be applied to o ur subject i.e. Community Medicine and the medical world at large. Medical doctors bear a great burden of caring for both the healthy and ill in the society. Doctors have to be exemplary people teaching their patients to lead healthy lives and helping them to overcome illnesses. Doctors therefore have to lead lives of moderation, always willing to help those in need and ready to give necessary advice. The grateful community in turn respects and even deifies their doctors. A greedy, money grabbing doctor who has thrown basic ethics to the winds is an abomination to the profession. The same applies to a doctor who is only interested in the curative aspect of disease due to the pecuniary benefits it fetches him. Over the years as knowledge progressed, the art of medicine slowly changed from a ââ¬Å"philosophyâ⬠to a ââ¬Å"technologyâ⬠with emphasis on machines and procedures. The precepts of medicine which are nothing but what we read today as principles of Community Medicine, are slowly becoming irrelevant and obsolete to todayââ¬â¢s pr actitioner. There is a danger of a contemporary doctor running amok, treating his patients as diseases and harassing them with the latest technology which is his ammunition. The fathers of the medical world after careful thought put together some rules, principles and precepts to help make a modern doctor and the learned people in the community behave rationally and responsibly with regard to health and healthcare. So there we have it. Community Medicine was born thus and it is the ââ¬Å"religionâ⬠of the medical world! As all religions go, however, some believe and many do not; some accept it and many do not. Many even revile it and belittle it. Religion is all encompassing to the believer but terribly boring to the skeptic. Therefore we find ourselves defending our religion, trying to propagate it, searching for converts and disciples. We are dealing with the truth, but circumstances and the state of affairs hinder people from recognizing the truth. So here we are today, all of us in the profession of medicine, basic doctors first and only then specialists. Community Medicine puts things in perspective. Our field talks of comprehensiveness, inclusiveness and wholesomeness. We can neither divide the body from the mind nor man from his society, his culture and his environment. We as priests of this medical religion are compelled to uncompromisingly put forth our thoughts and ideas to the world at large and especially to our hospital colleagues and others. As teachers of the subject we cannot undermine our role in shaping the young minds entrusted to us. It is a great opportunity to help these young ones to look at medicine again as a philosophy and not purely as a technology. Looking at it from this angle we realize that Community Medicine is much more than a clinical subject. It may be promotive, preventive, curative or rehabilitative roles that we adopt at different times depending on the need we perceive in the world surroundin g us. We have to however keep in mind that all these approaches carry equal weight when evaluating the bigger picture. Yes! We are clinicians! But it is just one facet of our function. We need to be clinicians because that makes us better health educators, better preventive medicine practitioners and better rehabilitators not just for our patients but their families and even their communities. It may be overwhelming to realize that our understanding of clinical tools(diagnostic or therapeutic; preventive or curative) must be much more than all the specialists put together if we are to do any justice to the common man in his family or community! From a practical point of view, as we can think comprehensively and are rooted in reality, understanding the patient in a complete way, we can help the narrowly thinking curative specialist in our hospitals to effectively counsel his patient. (The above specialist came into being because we failed to convert him when he was our student). We can strive towards empowering our colleagues to inculcate promotive and preventive aspects into their practices. If they show reluctance, we can do it ourselves; mainly to help them see that it works and their patients will be more satisfied and self reliant. However our ultimate goal has to be the transfer of responsibility back to their shoulders. If we hold on, we will again be the cause of separating medicine into unwholesome sections. We need to remember that only a small proportion of people suffering with diseases come to the hospitals. The rest are out there undiagnosed, uncared for and untutored. Again if our approach is to ââ¬Å"keep people healthyâ⬠and not ââ¬Å"cure people with diseaseâ⬠, the community is where we have to be. To reach out to the masses we need to first go out to where they live and use all our skills ââ¬â communicational , diagnostic, curative, persuasive etc. to empower them . In this process we may draw on health care facilities at different levels, primary, secondary, tertiary etc. or even the grass root level people like the Village Health Guide, the trained Dai or the ASHA. Just like a surgeon can teach a student, practical and functional anatomy better than an anatomist, we can teach our students better because of not only our clinical assessment and skills but also our comprehensive knowledge of the patient. In the debate whether we are clinicians or not, there is no doubt at all. We are more than clinicians. We are the glue that puts the various aspects of medicine together. We keep hearing that there is a stigma attached to Community Medicine. We hear complaints that other specialties do not respect us. In todayââ¬â¢s world, we feel that a person becomes the temple priest because he was not good for anything else. People become priests for various reasons, one being the desire to show others the way to heaven. It depends on the priest to show his knowledge, understanding and ways to gain the respect of the devotees. Similarly we need to find appropriate spaces; be it the hospital or the community to showcase our substance. First and foremost we should stop putting ourselves down. It may be sobering thought to realize that when medicine finally becomes thoroughly commercial, we will have to play a significant role in moderating our colleagues and the medical industry to ensure that our communities remain healthy. Simply put, we hold the key to the future of medicine in our country.
Chemistry IA: Electrolysis of Metal Sulphate solutions Essay
Introduction Electrolysis is the chemical decomposition of a compound by applying an electric current through a solution containing ions. Electrolytes are required to conduct electricity. They must be dissolved in water or in molten state for the electrolytes to conduct because then, the ions are free to move allowing the solution to be electrolyzed.[1] In electrolysis, reduction happens at the cathode whilst oxidation happens at the anode. Reduction is the loss of electrons and oxidation is the gain of electrons. Research Question In this experiment, I will be electrolyzing nickel sulphate (NiSO4) solution. To further explain the aim of this experiment, I have formulated a research question: ââ¬Å"How does changing the current affect the mass of nickel deposited at the cathode in the electrolysis of nickel sulphate?â⬠Hypothesis I predict that as the electrical charge increases, the mass of nickel deposited at the cathode after electrolysis will also increase. Faradayââ¬â¢s law of electrolysis, which investigates the quantitative relationship on electrochemical, can support this. Faradayââ¬â¢s law states, ââ¬Å"The amount of the substance produced by current at an electrode is directly proportional to the quantity of electricity usedâ⬠.[2] During this electrolysis experiment, the aqueous solution of Nickel Sulphate will transfer Nickel from the anode to the cathode. Therefore indicating that the nickel sulphate solution is ionised by the electric current and dissociated into nickel ions and sulphate ions. This can be represented in a chemical equation: NiSO4 à ¯ Ni2+ + SO42- At the cathode, positively charged nickel ions are formed there and Ni2+ ions are reduced to Ni by gaining two electrons: Ni2+ + 2e à ¯ Ni At the anode, Ni is oxidised into Ni2+ by dissolving and going into the nickel sulphate solution and finally depositing nickel at the cathode: Ni à ¯ Ni2+ + 2e When the electrolysis circuit has electricity flowing, the nickel ions will float towards the electrode. Therefore, when the current is increased, the nickel ions flow faster and reaching the cathode faster. So there will be more nickel deposited as the rate of electrolysis is increased. Independent and Dependent Variables Variable measured Method of measuring variable Independent variable Magnitude of current flowing into the electrolytes (A) The 5 values I will use for current flowing into the electrolytes will be: 0.5 amps 1.0 amps 1.5 amps 2.0amps 2.5 amps To vary the values of current, a variable resistor will need to be used in the ciruit to control the flow of current. The amps values can be determined using an ammeter, which is also attached to the electrolysis circuit. Dependent variable Mass of Nickel (g) The mass of nickel deposited at the cathode after electrolysis will be measured for results. This will be determined by weighing the nickel electrodes before the experiment and after electrolysis. For this, a electronic balance will be used to weigh them. Controlled Variables Variable measured Method of measuring variable Controlled variables Temperature (à °C) The entire experiment will be done in room temperature of around 24à °C to ensure that the temperature for each trial will be the same. The temperature will be measured using a thermometer. Concentration of solution (moldm-3) The concentration of nickel sulphate needs to be kept constant at 1 moldm-3. This is because the same concentration will allow the number of ions in the solution to be the same, thus the number of collisions during the electrolysis will be kept the same. Volume of solution (cm3) The volume of nickel sulphate for each trial will be kept at 100cm3. Measuring cylinders will be used for accurate measurement. Time (min) The timing for the experiment needs to be controlled very carefully to ensure the amount of current passing the electrolytic cell will have the same amount of time. For each trial, it will run for 2 minutes. This will be determined using a stopwatch. Voltage (V) To keep the voltage of this experiment constant set at 5V, we only need to switch the power pack to 5V and keep it there. Distance between electrodes (mm) The distance between the nickel electrodes needs to be kept constant so it doesnââ¬â¢t affect the amount of current passing. The distance will be kept at 40mm and this will be measured using a ruler. Surface of electrodes Before using the electrodes in the experiment, sand paper will be used to remove the oxide layer on the sheet of nickel. This will ensure the surface of all electrodes to be the same and will have the same surface for ions to attach to. Size of electrodes The electrodes need to be kept the same size to ensure there will be an equal surface area for nickel to deposit on. The nickel sheet electrodes will be 10mm by 50mm long. This is measured using a ruler. Equipment Equipment such as measuring cylinders, power packs, wires will need to be the same. This is because different equipment would have different uncertainties, which may affect the final readings of the experiment. Equipment Thermometer NiSO4 solution Nickel electrodes 100ml beaker Resistor Power pack Ammeter Diagram Safety considerations Long hair needs to be tied back Appropriate footwear worn for laboratory experiments Safety goggles should be warn to prevent harmful chemicals from harming your eyes Donââ¬â¢t touch the electric terminals when the electricity is on to prevent shocks Reliable results To ensure accurate and reliable results, I will be undergoing 3 trials for each experiment. This is so I will then be able to calculate an average, thus my data will be more reliable. I will also maintain all the controlled variables and only varying the input of current. Method Set up the apparatus and circuit as shown in the diagram Fill a beaker with 100cm3 of nickel sulphate Weigh the cathode using the electronic balance and record the initial mass of it File the Nickel electrodes using sandpaper to remove any impurities Place each electrode pair into the beaker with nickel sulphate Attach the electrodes to opposite sites of the beaker (measure with a ruler the distance between, it should be around 4cm) by bending the electrodes it Adjust the current to 0.5 amps using the variable resistor Connect the electrolytes into the circuit by clipping on the wires and turn the power pack on Using the stopwatch, time for 2 minutes whilst looking at the ammeter to ensure the current remains the same After 2 minutes, turn the power pack off and take the cathode out. Wash the cathode carefully with distilled water and dry it with a paper towel Weigh the cathode again using the electronic balance and record the mass Repeat the steps 1 to 12 again for 1 amps, 1.5 amps, 2 amps and 2.5 amps Initial Mass of Cathode (à ±0.001g) Final Mass of Cathode (à ±0.001g) Change in mass (à ±0.001g) Average mass gained (à ±0.002 g) Data table The table above is a draft up of the raw data results table I will be using for my final readings from the experiment. It includes columns with headings, 3 trials, units and uncertainties and the average mass gained from the whole experiment. From these results, I can also draw a graph to easier represent the data and can also spot patterns or anomalous data that occur in the results. The actual theoretical mass of nickel deposited at the cathode can also be calculated with a few equations: Charge (C)= Current (A) x Time (s) Moles of electrons= Charge (C)/ 96500 Moles of Nickel= moles of electrons/2 Mass= moles x RAM The total percentage of random uncertainty can be calculated for my final answer in order to determine whether my experiment was fully successful and that the results are accurate.

Developmental - Essay Example the answer would always be ââ¬Å"I played with my friends.â⬠My mother says that it was only after a year at preschool that I began to give details of my daily happenings. During this period I experienced a number of firsts. I entered school for the first time. I made friends for the first time and according to my teachers I would organize the games for my friends and me to play. I really do not remember what the names of my teachers were but I do remember they were a friendly, kind and loving bunch. Another significant event in my early childhood was the birth of my baby brother. At first I would not understand why he was there but eventually I began to love him. However, loving him did not imply that every toy he got really belonged to him. Sometimes, I would fight with him for a toy that I had chosen for him. My mother reminds me that I would consider everything in the house as belonging to me. The house was mine. The refrigerator and everything in it was mine and certainly my baby brother was mine. Specifically, I remember that I called the next-door neighbor my sister. My mother would always repeat the story of the day that I told her that she had a ââ¬Å"ginaâ⬠and my grandmother had a ââ¬Å"ginaâ⬠but my father, my next door neighbor and I had penises. My next door neighbor is now my girlfriend and I discovered that she never had a penis. At age two when other children would only have about 50 words in their vocabulary, I believe I had about one hundred. I loved to talk and I still do. Also I have always loved music and my father would buy instruments for me which I would destroy before the month was through in order to fix them. I have always been a fun loving person. As a child I would enjoy going to the beach. During my preschool years I learnt to swim, to appreciate music and to use the computer. I was usually a happy child. My parentsââ¬â¢ friends would tell me that all they remember of me as a young child is my ready smile. It took me a

Argument essay Example | Topics and Well Written Essays - 1000 words
Argument - Essay Example For example, media nowadays are eventually used for product promotion, company endorsement, popularizing a personality, and many more (Hardy, 100). In other words, there can be many things to be done by simply taking media into oneââ¬â¢s hand. Most of them are creative in nature. To cite an instance, it is important to substantially consider the case of product promotion or other relevant endorsement just to gain sympathy or attention from the target audience. Most often, it is viewed in television and other relevant media how creative these strings of endorsements could turn out. For example, using the concept of viral marketing, there is a need or consideration of speed. Just to be able to hit this objective, creative means are substantially employed along the process. At some point, creative methodological approaches are substantially included just to be able to hit specific objectives. In the case of Burger King for instance, its idea about viral marketing was substantially ap plied in order to gain remarkable attention about its product or service offerings. In this way, media have become productive tools in order to help a specific party to reach its competitive edge over the other or obtain specific objectives. ... Others on the other hand were applauded due to remarkable showcase of something what they got. For instance, the creation of Youtube and other social networking sites allow an individual to create something that would make a difference in the world. In fact, many personalities have paved their way through the ladder of success because of the media. In whatever point it may serve, the bottom line was to intentionally inform the public so as the same would create impression, response or opinion on the subject matter. This is a remarkable proof that the media could not only bring forward creative strategies only at the other side of the coin. They could potentially establish any relevant issues, situations, concerns or any possibilities of everything because they all have the power to inform the public and connect to peopleââ¬â¢s lives, in almost every walk, provided they would be allocated at some point in a highly creative way. In fact, media have become elemental components on how the elected officials in the US were able to successfully gain popular votes in the election. It is therefore clear that taking the media into the peopleââ¬â¢s hands could become susceptible to manipulation, exploitation in either good or bad intentions, which could provide either good or bad results. Some good results of the media however would include keeping the public informed with the right information. The people deserve to know the truth, and in many years the media have proven effective tools in doing so. For example, the fight against terroristic acts was dominated by the media when it comes to information dissemination. In fact, there were various terroristic attempts

Will upload an attachement - Essay Example The team must understand the obligatory skills required in running the business. Recruited workers are required to have adequate experience and knowledge that is relevant to the operation of the Eastern Foods Company business. There must be people specifically knowledgeable in each department of the Company. For instance, the production department should have people with the best knowledge of production. The team is required to balance the diversity of the people in the workplace by considering crucial factors like sexual orientations, marital status, and ethnicity among other factors(Sims, 2007, p. 134). But, all these criteria should be implemented in consideration to what is required for each job description. For example, it sounds unusual recruiting a female manpower team where the job description clearly outlines the need for male manpower. Similarly, there is need to recruit a special marketing team that will take time to acquaint with the new project and concentrate on it holistically. The marketing team is to consist of people with marketing backgrounds, possibly graduates with previous experience in the marketing department of a different Company. The finance department needs to outline possible measures to contain the costs involved in running the new business. Cost management is a major factor in the running of the business and will determine the difference between the success and failure of the business. The department should be ready to consider various expenses that touch on the people that are part of the business. Such costs may involve training costs, health-care benefits, and hiring process costs. The costs cut into the bottom line of the business, and the management team should figure out how much, how many, and how often these benefits should be offered. Obviously, the Company will have it rough balancing its financial statements. The management is to develop standardized
