Summary: Energy Story

In the articles "Energy Story" and "Conducting Solutions", as well as the video, "Hands-On Science with Squishy Circuits", they all have similar purposes. The first article's purpose was to teach people how electricity and energy works. The second article informs people about how different solutions can create electric currents. In addition, the video's purpose was to persuade people to do hands on science with their children while teaching them how Play-Doh is a circuit. They all have different purposes, but they all have the same topic for their purposes, electricity.

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

In the story "Energy story" it talks about the structure of an atom and electrons and how electrons can move easier in somethings than in other things, like in paragraph 21-22 it says that thing like rubber cloth glass and dry air are good insulators, which means that electrons don’t move as well as in things like copper, aluminum, and steel.

The purpose of these stories are all different, but in some ways the same. The two articles are more alike than different, but the video is not like them. The video is more of an experiment you can try out at home or to explain

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

In the article “Conducting Solutions” I learned an electrical current is just a flow of electric charge. When a metal conducts electricity its carried by electrons moving through metal. Did you know pure water only contains

Electrical 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

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,

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

Squish circuits bridge the gap between professional engineers and young, aspiring, minds. One of the Perot Museum’s main concepts is exposure; Squishy Circuits provides children, who normally wouldn’t be exposed to electrical engineering in school, a chance to broaden their horizons. Squishy circuits, utilizes Play-Doh-like-clay as conductors and insulators in

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

Cover Letter I, Vineet Kr. Gupta, am completed M.Tech (Energy & Environmental Management) from Kurukshetra University, Haryana, India. I wish to apply for the suitable position (Environment Management Division) in your organization in the thrust area of Environment Management.

Energy Paper 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
