Answers to Conceptual Integrated Science End-of-Chapter Questions Chapter 1: About Science Answers to Chapter 1 Review Questions 1 The era of modern science in the 16th century was launched when Galileo Galilei revived the Copernican view of the heliocentric universe, using experiments to study nature’s behavior. 2 In Conceptual Integrated Science, we believe that focusing on math too early is a poor substitute forconcepts. 3 We mean that it must be capable of being proved wrong. 4 Nonscientific

TITLE Working functions of 360 degree air cooler 1.1 DESCRIPTION An evaporative air cooler is a device that cools air through the evaporation of water. The problem encountered in the conventional air cooler is that it fails to maintain the optimum relative humidity (RH) level of 40-60%. This makes the users feel uncomfortable. Also conventional air coolers use axial type blower which blows air only in one direction which makes the cooling rate slower. The purpose of the present project is
