Carbon Dioxide Greenhouse Effect
1,080 wordsWhile some people believe the earth's climatic changes are due to the fact that the universe is getting older, others believe it is due to the greenhouse effect. The greenhouse effect is a naturally occuring phenomenon that is responsible for trapping heat near the earth's surface and keeping the planet warm. It is called the greenhouse effect because the way it works is similar to the way in which a green house functions. In a greenhouse sunlight passes through the transparent roof and walls an...

Cooling Rate Of Coffee
1,679 wordsExperiments to Determine the Cooling Rate of Coffee, when Milk should be Added and what Container should be Used The aim of the first experiment was to find out and record the cooling rate of coffee under three different conditions and thus showing when milk should be added assuming you have a phone call. The three different conditions were chosen because these were the most likely situations encounter by someone who is making a cup of coffee. We used Tain instruments to accurately calculate the...

However with lower tyre pressures there is less force holding the tyre in shape. When under extreme force in the horizontal plane (such as in cornering) the rubber will elastically deform and cause heat to be generated. This heat is advantageous in that it causes a physical change in the rubber and it becomes soft and sticky. This translate...

Natural Greenhouse Effect Average Global Temperature
3,796 wordsFire is Fire 2 Introduction Fire is a topic on which most people can comment. Fire is a widespread phenomenon. Most of us have seen fires in natural vegetation, or their effects; stark, blackened vegetation or a smoke pall. Because fires such as these can have damaging economic and social effects, can spoil forestry timber, can burn down houses and farms, and can kill people and animals, there has been a lot written about wildfires. Added to this wide perception of the damage that can be caused ...

During the course of the twentieth century, many environmental scientists have become increasingly confident that the average global temperature has elevated. Although global warming is still a highly controversial theory, the facts have compelled scientists, politicians and the environmentally conscious to take a closer look at the statistics. Periodic global warming conferences take place around the world to discuss various environmental topics. Globa...

Burning Fossil Fuels Natural Greenhouse Effect
3,312 wordsThe Greenhouse Effect The greenhouse effect, as defined in the dictionary, is the effect produced as greenhouse gases allow incoming solar radiation to pass through the Earths atmosphere, but prevent most of the outgoing infrared radiation from the surface and lower atmosphere from escaping into outer space. Even though this process occurs naturally and has kept the Earths temperature about 60 degrees Fahrenheit warmer than it would otherwise be, current life on Earth could not be sustained with...

Cast Iron Common Place
2,441 wordsI-How Does Gears Work? You see gears in just about everything that has spinning parts. For example, car engines and transmissions contain lots of gears. Gears are generally used for one of four different reasons: 1 - To reverse the direction of rotation. 2 - To increase or decrease the speed of rotation. 3 - To move rotational motions to a different axis. 4 - keep the rotation of two axis synchronized. Most of the gears you see in real life have teeth. The teeth have three advantages: 1 - They p...

Thermo Regulating Indoor Cabinets Plants
598 wordsIt is hard to believe that some plants produce as much heat for their weight as birds do, which are the greatest heat producers of all. It is even harder to believe that some are able to thermo regulate, which means that they actually alter their heat production to keep their temperature constant in fluctuating air temperatures. This is similar to what mammals do. The article I am reviewing tells about few a plants that do this, and how they do it. There are only three plants which have yet been...
