Summary: Energy Story

the articles I read, I came across information about "Energy Story”, "Conducting Solutions" and a video clip titled "Hands-On Science with Squishy Circuits".

1. When we say that something gives us “energy,” what does that mean? What is a biological definition of energy?

In this video it shows you how you can use the things that are something your children play with and are commonly bought things to create your own electricity. The lady in the video was using two types of playdough’s that she has made on her own. She made a salt dough, and also a dough including sugar rather than salt. When you put the two salt pieces’ together and a sugary piece in between, you can create electricity. The purpose of this video is to tell everyone about how you can conduct your own electricity and to explain how it can be used more simply than you think. It is not all about atoms and all of those substances. You can create electricity with what you have in your own house. She tested the playdough’s by putting an LED light in the salty pieces on the outside. If they touch the light will go out, but if you place a piece of sugary dough in between the two, you can leave the light on and it will stay on.

In the video "Hands-On Science with Squishy Circuits" talked about how play dough that you can make at home that it can conduct electricity.

In the video, "Hands-On Science with Squishy Circuits", Anne Marie Thomas does a TED talk about Play-Doh circuits. She explains how she teaches her daughter about electricity by making homemade Play-Doh. At 1:42, she demonstrates with an LED light, Play-Doh that contains salt, Play-Doh that contains sugar, and batteries. She splits the salty Play-Doh in two and connects them with the batteries. To conclude, she sticks the LED light in both of the "squishy circuits" and it turns on.

An electric current exists when there is a net flow of charge through a given area. Electrons flow from the negatively charged region to the positively charged region. This is usually accomplished by using an electrical conductor which allows the electrons to pass freely through the material (Serway, et al. 709). This flow of electrons can generate heat when collisions between the molecules and electrons occur. These collisions then cause the molecules to break apart thus releasing heat. Some common examples of electrical energy are lightning, static electricity, and wiring outlets (Coleman, et al. 82). For the wildland firefighter, lightning is probably the

Energy Story "Conducting Solutions" and Hands On Science taught me a little more about electricity and how it works. The video (Hands On Science) I say was probably the easiest one to get information from. I didn’t know you could get electricity from playdough, and she didn’t buy it from the store she made it herself in her kitchen so her daughter could make electricity. Both of the passages have really good information about electricity. Even though conduction solutions story is pretty short it still gave a lot of information. In the video you can see pictures of her three or four years old daughter making electricity with homemade play dough. In Energy Story it tells about how electricity is in our lives and tells you how it is all around

Conducting Solutions is important in life because it apart of science. If you want to be a scientist, then you would need to know what conducting solutions is. This article also talks about ions and electrical currents. Some demonstrations of this are ammonia vinegar mixed with molecules solutions and conduct electricity. Some water contains ions which conducts electricity really well Conducting Solutions is really important to know.

In each passage that I read, "Energy Story", "Conducting Solutions", and the video "Hands on Science with squishy Circuits" there are many similarities and differences within the information I have gained in the articles and the video. The main idea of this video is to mainly inform you about electricity, the main principles of it, and some different ways to make electricity.

First, the difference between the two articles’, "Energy Story" and "Conducting Solutions" purposes. The article, "Energy story," talks about atoms and what atoms are needed to make electricity. That's the articles purpose, to teach you what atoms are needed to make electricity and the atoms. They put everything you need to know about atoms. How they move, how many atoms are needed in one, etc. Now for the second article, "Conducting Solutions," purpose is different. Its purpose is to say what’s a good conductor and what you can mix so it can be a good conductor. They tell you what you can mix like ammonia and vinegar. The other article doesn't really talk much about conductors and which ones

You went into great depth in the post and I really enjoyed how you used yourself as an example. As you mentioned that gas is an inelastic I would have to say the same for me. I have always heard my mom complain about gas and as year passed and I started driving I would never look at gas prices. I felt that either way I would end up paying for the gas so I might as well pump and not look at the price. I know for myself as I plan to travel this summer I have experience first hand how distance really plays a roll in how much it will cost to travel. The farther you travel out the more it will cost. With that being said I had to think about where I wanted to travel and ended up with something not too far off of the east coast. Alternative energy

There are many forms of energy. The types of energy that can affect the toy car are potential energy, kinetic energy, and work of friction. Potential is the energy of an object due to its position. Kinetic energy is the energy due to motion. Friction plays a part because it shows how much energy is needed for the car to move. All these energies are intertwined in the toy car.

What is energy? Energy is the ability to do work, it is the “power that comes from the use of physical or chemical resources.” In your home energy can come in many forms such as heat, light, and even electricity. The problem is some of us, meaning people, in general, know little to anything about the word energy itself. When we think about energy, we think about the energy it takes to get up in the morning. Sometimes as students we do not notice how much, and when we use energy. We use energy in everyday life, and it is very important to understand that.

How is energy produced from the resource? Nuclear energy is the power produced during a nuclear reaction. It can produce in two different ways like, nuclear fission and nuclear fusion. It is from the sun and stars which releases heat and light energy to warm up the earth. How much nuclear energy do we use? It has been said that it produces 13-14% of the world’s electricity and it accounts for 6% of the world’s energy, France and japan make up 50% alone, and the U.S. has been producing 20% since 1991. What are the prospects for this resource in the future? They say that from now until 2040 that it will go up by 14% and that the generators will be updated and new fuel cycles. What are the pros and cons for each resource? Coal: Pros- its
