Write a lab report using the following scientific method sections:
Title: The Effect of Energy Sources on Environmental Pollution and Human Health
Purpose
o
The purpose of this report is to determine which electricity generation, coals power plants
of nuclear plants. This will be a better human sustainability not just for humans but for
the environment as a whole.
Introduction
o
Homes and businesses use electricity. It used it from sun up to sun down whether it is
lights, televisions, appliances, office equipment, computers and the list goes on.
Its
becoming a common thing to see vehicles being charged by electricity. In this report i
will need to determine whether it will be better to use coal or nuclear power plants to
continue to generate electricity.
Hypothesis/Predicted Outcome
o
In one sentence
, state what you expect the results of the lab procedure will be.
Methods
o
In a detailed paragraph
, summarize the steps you performed for collecting the data in this
lab exercise. The goal of the methods section is to include enough information that others
can duplicate your process and obtain the same results.
Results/Outcome
o
In a detailed paragraph
, summarize your data.
Discussion/Analysis
o
In a detailed paragraph,
discuss whether you obtained the expected results and what you
learned from the lab.

electrical equipment can and will cause serious injury or death. OSHA laws and NFPA
70E have strict safety requirements for working on electrical equipment. The basic rules
are to turn off the power before working on the equipment and to wear the proper type of
nonflammable clothing. To further provide safety for the worker, the National Electrical
Code has a requirement pertaining to arc-flash hazard warning. This requirement is
found in
