In this simple exercise you will measure how much work you do and calculate how powerful you are. Safety You will need some stairs that you can safely run up‚ preferable more than one floor. Normally‚ you shouldn’t run on stairs. So you should • not run up stairs if you are sick or have a medical problem • check that your teacher

Alternative Energy Sources Fossil fuels will not last forever. If the human race wishes to continue to live the way we do‚ then we have to look at alternative energy sources such as: geothermal‚ nuclear‚ solar‚ wind‚ and hydroelectric energy. Alternative energy sources are not without faults‚ but along with faults‚ there are benefits and solutions to the issues. Geothermal energy is a well-proven energy resource that can be used to provide both heat and electricity. Geothermal energy is very predictable

Renewable energy‚ a source of energy that holds a significant promise to help reduce the amount of toxins that are by-product of too much energy use and bring a positive impact on our planet that we currently use as our source of energy.These include energy from water(Hydropower)‚ wind‚ the sun(solar power)‚ geothermal sources‚ and biomass fuel. In contrast‚ fuels such as coal‚ oil‚ and natural gas are non-renewable‚it’s finite and will some day run out completely. One of the most common renewable

ABSTRACT: The term “waste to energy” has traditionally referred to the practice of incineration of garbage. Today‚ a new generation of waste-to-energy technologies is emerging which hold the potential to create renewable energy from waste matter‚ including municipal solid waste‚ industrial waste‚ agricultural waste‚ and waste byproducts. The main categories of waste-to-energy technologies are physical technologies‚ which process waste to make it more useful as fuel; thermal technologies

Geothermal energy vs coal powered energy‚ what say you? Geothermal energy is a renewable source of energy generated and stored in the Earth. Coal powered energy is a source of energy produced from the natural resources of the Earth. Geothermal energy and coal powered both have many uses especially in generating electricity. In this field‚ they are similar as electrical energy is generated in a similar concept. Heat from the Earth’s crust and heat produced during the burning of coals are both used

sources of Energy" In the not-too-distant future -- with regard to history’s time-line -- there will come a point when oil that is fossil fuels will have been depleted. However‚ waiting until supplies are exhausted would place a major hardship upon future energy demands. Even the existence of other conventional sources such as hydropower‚ wind energy and biomass will not suffice keeping in mind the rapid advancement. It is therefore imperative to look for alternative sources of energy in order to
