Liberal Bias In Media
1,459 words
Plain and simple, Media is bias. In anyway that
you would like to put it, this statement is a
fact. The country always seems to have something
to say about media depending on the current events
happening at the time. If it's a republican, the
media is too left-winged, and if it's a democrat,
then the media just seems to head right a little
too much. Bias media has plagued the United States
ever since Watergate though, Of course it existed
before that, but Watergate totally portrayed the
scandal ...

Fluid Saturation Determinations Capillary Pressure Curves Volume
950 words
Porosity is the best known physical characteristic
of an oil reservoir. It determines the volume of
oil or gas present, and all recovery computations
must be based on knowledge of its value. Porosity
of a material is defined as that fraction of the
bulk volume of this material that is not occupied
by the solid framework of the material. In oil
reservoirs, the porosity represents the percentage
of the total space that is available for occupancy
by either liquids or gases. It determines the
storag...

Seismic Waves Plate Boundaries

... dates. An example of the most well known and
studied fault is the San Andreas Fault located of
the coast of California. The origin of volcanoes:
Hot spots, can be found on plate boundaries or
inside the plates. The hot spot is a place deep
inside the Earth that begins to form molten lava
from extreme heat conditions. It will quickly rise
up, pushing and melting its way to the surface
resulting in a volcano. Because of the constant
moving of the plates, the volcano will be carried
away from t...

Three Organisms Hydra Flatworm And Earthworm
436 words
The Hydra, unlike other animals with an anus and
rectum, uses the same opening for both taking in
food and eliminating wastes. Its intracellular and
extracellular digestive processes are detailed in
the drawing I have made. It is the simplest of
animals in the drawings, since it uses a
contractile fibrils lining in its skin. The cells
lining in the Hydra can take in solid bits of food
with the internal cavities. Special cells of the
hydra secrete enzymes into the central or
digestive cavity, whe...

Released Into The Atmosphere Greenhouse Gases
958 words
Global warming is an increase in the earth's
temperature due to fossil fuels, industry, and
agricultural processes caused by human, natural,
and other gas emissions. (Melissa Phillips). This
results in an increased emission of greenhouse
gases. (Caroline Quatman). Short-wave solar
radiation sinks into the Earth's atmosphere and
warms its surface; while longwave infrared
radiation emitted by earth's surface is absorbed,
and then re-emitted by trace gases. (Brent C.
Willhoite) Climate changes occu...

Carbon Dioxide Methane Nitrous Oxide
705 words
The earth s climate is predicted to change because
human activities are altering the chemical
composition of the atmosphere through the buildup
of greenhouse gases primarily carbon dioxide,
methane, and nitrous oxide. The heat-trapping
property of these gases is undisputed. Although
uncertainty exists about exactly how earth s
climate responds to these gases, global
temperatures are rising. Energy from the sun
drives the earth s weather and climate, and heats
the earth s surface; in turn, the ea...

Negatively Charged Positively Charged
571 words
Fusion reactions are inhibited by the electrical
repulsive force that acts between two positively
charged nuclei. For fusion to occur, the two
nuclei must approach each other at high speed to
overcome the electrical repulsion and attain a
sufficiently small separation (less than
one-trillionth of a centimeter) that the
short-range strong nuclear force dominates. For
the production of useful amounts of energy, a
large number of nuclei must under go fusion: that
is to say, a gas of fusing nuclei m...

Solid State Lasers Beam Of Light
1,373 words
A laser (LAY zum) is a device that produces a very
narrow beam of light. This is called coherent
light. It is formed from producing light at equal
wavelengths in phase. The result is a beam of
light that does not stray from it? s path.
Conventional light bulbs produce incoherent light.
This form of light diffuses immediately upon
radiation from its source. The size of a laser
beam varies greatly. Some lasers produce beams
that are small enough to fit 200 beams in an area
the size of a pinhead. T...
