...built large and extravagant temples to worship the sun in. Other cultures built places to observe the sun in, such as Stonehenge in England. Different Types of Solar Panels There are three main types of solar panels. They are flat plate collectors, focusing collectors, and solar cells. The first kind is a flat plate collector. Flat plate collectors are fastened on the top of the roof of a house. They usually either heat the house or its water. A flat plate collector consists of a black rectangular frame, two or three sheets of glass, and copper plumbing. A flat plat collector uses the greenhouse affect. The sun rays go through the glass but can’t get out through the glass. The sun rays heat the water-filled copper tubes. Then the water is used to heat the home or water. Another type of a solar panel is a focusing collector. They consist of a mirror or mirrors which are focused in one spot. Some focusing collectors are solar furnaces, parabolic dishes and troughs and power towers. The first type is a solar furnace. A solar furnace consists of many mirrors that are aimed at a large curved mirror that is aimed at a large steel building. This building can get as hot as 5,790 F. Scientists use solar furnaces to run experiments to see how certain...

...Physics Unit 1 Revision (higher tier) Energy There are 9 different forms of energy: Light Heat Chemical Kinetic (movement) Electrical Elastic (Gravitational) potential Nuclear Sound Energy is never created or destroyed! Energy is transferred from one form to another form. Not all of the energy transferred by a device is useful energy. Potential energy is stored energy. All energy will eventually spread out to the surroundings as heat. Sample question 1 Sankey diagrams and efficiency Sample sankey diagram for a light bulb Sankey diagrams are ways of representing the different energy transformations that take place in different electrical devices. The start of the sankey diagram shows the total energy going into the device. The diagram then splits off into different sized arrows to represent the other energy transfers that take place, the bigger the arrow the larger the energy. The energy entering the device must equal the energy leaving the device. To know how good a device is at transferring energy you need to be able to calculate the efficiency. To do that you need to use the following equation (which will be given in the exam) OR So for the above example the answer would be Efficiency= 10100=0.1 The closer the efficiency is to 1 the more useful energy the device is transferring. So for the light bulb example we got an efficiency of 0.1, so the light bulb isn’t very good and transferring useful energy. Sample question 2 ...

...1. Introduction In the 21st century, beauty and make up are like the wheels of a cart or the two sides of a coin. Women are beautiful in themselves; but a little make-up does help a lot and it keeps one to make the day better and happier. Every woman wants to be pretty whether she’s young or old so the beauty salon is the place to go. The beauty parlor has become an almost iconic figure in Western culture and Southeast Asian culture as well as in modern generation. The beauty salon is where a woman goes to have their hair and nails done. As such, choosing a beauty salon is a process most women (and even men) will undergo. The first thing to start in choosing a salon is to evaluate what needs to be done. A woman who just wants her hair trimmed might go to a beauty parlor than women who wants a permanent coloring, or more extensive services. If a woman wants her hair cut promptly and that day, she might be better off visiting to a walk-in salon, more willingly than trying to find her regular stylist. For other kind of services, a woman might want to think about a full-service in by-appointment-only beauty parlor. This signifies that she will have a stylist who is expecting her and definitely knows what she wants to be done. Genesis Beauty Parlor has been established by six individual people who have formed partnership under the Partnership Act 1932. According to the agreement all the partners will invest equal amount of money as well as bear the equal amount profit/losses which...

...industry, which is divided into three major categories: 1) upholstered, 2) wood, and 3) read-to-assemble and casual furniture. Of these three, wood furniture makes up 40 percent of the total furniture sales. The different types of wood furniture include dressers, tables, bedroom and dining room suites, with bedroom and dining room furniture being the majority of sales. In terms of position, Haverwood is not ranked in the top 25 manufacturers which account for over half of the country’s furniture sales. They are a medium to high-priced manufacturer and sell through 1000 high-quality department stores and independent furniture specialty stores nationwide. They are very selective in choosing retail outlets to mirror their products, so they are more of a niche company, and do not sell to the typical chain stores. 2. Consumer purchases. Consumers generally make furniture purchases when they buy a new house and the types of consumers who buy furniture are those with a higher level of disposable personal income. This is due to wood furniture being more expensive than other types of furniture and it is normally sold in sets (i.e., dining room table and chairs). Consumers with less disposable income will more often defer such pricey purchases or buy less expensive, less quality furniture to meet their family needs. Age is also a factor in consumers’ purchase of furniture. For example, as Exhibit 4 in our text show, the younger and older age groups tend to make the least amount...

...Introduction South Lawndale (Little Village) is located on the west side of the city of Chicago, lllinois, Is one of the 77 well defined Chicago community areas. History After the great Chicago fire of October 1871, many residents of Chicago were looking to move away from the crowded city. Areas on the city’s outskirts were quickly being developed, even as the ashes and rubble from the great fire were still being cleared. In 1871, Chicago real estate investors wanted to build an affluent subdivision in the suburban area west of Chicago, choosing an area just short of the Chicago city limits. The original subdivision was bound by Twenty-second Street, Twenty-sixty Street, Hamlin Avenue and Homan Avenue. Investors decided to built all homes to be constructed of brick, ranging from $2,500 to $8,500. ( Chicago Littles Village) By the turn of the 20th century, the west side of Chicago would become the largest industrial section of the city, and as a result, the more affluent residents began to move away from the Little Village area. They would eventually be replaced by immigrants, mostly of Eastern European extraction, from Czech Republican, Poland, Germany, and Hungary. Fast forwarding to the early 1960’s, Little Village began showing some troubling signs of change. Many of the community’s residents were moving farther west to the Czech-dominated suburbs of Cicero and Berwyn. This was largely due to fear based on the rapid changes just north of Little Village community...

...From the Street Cart all the way up to the exquisite Dining Table… Based on the infamous common saying of “You are what you eat”; some may argue that they do not possess the freedom of choice in what they choose to eat on a daily basis throughout their life due to the external factors that affect their decision making. With limited income and resources, many people from the lower social backgrounds tend to have a restricted culinary menu of which they can opt to eat from. Investigating the other end of the scale of where the wealthier level of the social ladder are looked at closely; you will find the inverse of this trend where the range of eating preferences are limitless and not bound by any spending power restrictions, thus giving them the liberty to indulge in an abundance of edible choices. I am thoroughly interested in studying the eating habits of the wealthy and the un-wealthy classes in Egypt. My objective behind this research is to gain an understanding of the differences in terms of eating behavior according to their social background. My aim was to identify their likes, dislikes, thoughts, perceptions and motivations behind certain choices. By studying those factors closely, the motives behind consumption of different classes based on their economic circumstances were revealed. The reason behind this study was to yield significantly valuable information and insight into the eating habits of the rich and poor segments in Egypt. By doing this, I was able to understand...

Type the abstract of the document here. The abstract is typically a short summary of the contents of the document.] Abstract This paper will review solar and wind energy as the alternative energy sources to replace fossil fuels and nuclear energy. Solar and wind energy has experienced phenomenal growth in recent years due to both technological improvements resulting in cost reductions and government policies supportive of renewable energy development and utilization. Fossils fuels and nuclear energy have been the world’s main source of energy for years but, with global warming and with a recent melt down at a Japanese nuclear plant many are questioning is it time to use other alternatives energy sources. Although both alternative energy sources are safer than fossil fuels and nuclear energy the world has been reluctant to switch power sources. The recent severe energy crisis has forced the world to develop new and alternative methods of power generation, which could not be adopted so far due to various reasons. Solar energy represents our largest source of renewable energy supply. The Sun is naturally Earth’s most abundant energy source and will be around for billions of years. This is a resource that essentially human beings won’t be worried about running out of anytime soon. Wind Energy...
