    E1 - Electrostatics (Potential & Field) Date: 26th of August 2014 Partners: Luke Silveira and Tivanka Anandappa Introduction: This practical involved investigating the behaviour of equipotential and electric field lines between two electrodes (which represented the a parallel plate capacitor). Furthermore the effect of adding a conductor and an insulator between the two electrodes was explored to determine the electric potential produced from these configurations. The setup involved three

    “Baxter initiated a voluntary nationwide recall of one lot of IV solution due to the potential for leaking containers, particulate matter and missing port protectors”. This recall was issued on July 17, 2015. Leaking containers, particulate matter and missing port protectors could result in contamination of the solution. If not detected, this could lead to a bloodstream infection or other serious adverse health consequences. Injecting a product containing particulate matter, in the absence of in-line

    In “Project Classroom Makeover”, Cathy Davidson demonstrates the potential benefits that can come from the implementation of technology in the current educational paradigm. Furthermore, in Sherry Turkle’s “selections from Alone Together”, Turkle discusses the unique relationship between a child and his or her artificially intelligent toys, some of which included Tamagotchis and Furbies. Interestingly, children give these toys special treatment relative to other toys. If the special treatment encourages

    it has potential energy, or saved energy. When you drop the ball, it falls to the ground because of gravity, and then it bounces back up. The potential energy in the ball turns into kinetic energy, or the energy of movement, when the ball falls and bounces. Potential energy is stored, or saved, energy. Your bike at the top of a big hill and a spring that’s stretched both have potential energy. When something uses its saved energy, like when you ride your bike down the hill, the potential energy

    being in motion. Potential energy is the energy possessed by a body by virtue of its position relative to others, stresses within it, electric charge, and other factors. Mechanical energy is mechanical energy is the sum of potential energy and kinetic energy. It is the energy associated with the motion and position of an object. The six different types of energy are thermal, electrical, nuclear, chemical, sound, and light. Thermal push is the part of the total electric potential energy and kinetic

    transmission refers to a communication process between neurons by the movement of chemicals or electrical signals across a synapse. The action potential has begun in the presynaptic neuron after neurotransmission takes position at a synapse. The binding process of neurotransmitters can trigger short term changes such as postsynaptic potentials also called membrane potential, or longer term changes depends on the stimulation of signaling cascades. It is essential for nerve impulses to assist in the propagation
