Abstract

The experiment is aimed at constructing a step-up transformer. This is due to the type of materials being used and the number of rolls that the wire is rolled on the U-shaped material. This can easily be related to the alternating current that is tapped from one source to the other. This current can easily be measured in respect to the size of the voltage that is alternated in between the primary transformer and that of the secondary transformer. The number of coils in the primary material is two; the other secondary coil has four coils. The material used to ...

Introduction

Efficient energy utilization is an important aspect of human life. The principle of conservation of energy states that energy can never be created nor destroyed. Thus, it is essential to utilize the energy available for us effectively and efficiently. Energy can be transformed from one form to another by use of appropriate transducers. When designing a house, it is essential to do it with the greatest regard to efficient energy use as well as safety to the environment. House designers should always come up with designs that promote efficient energy use. For instance, utilization of renewable energy should be maximized. ...

Describe the conservation choices that you recommend for implementation on the farm.

There are numerous conservation choices that can be implemented in the farm. First, crop rotation must be implemented. For example, corn, legumes and small grains can be rotated. Scientific studies have showed that crop rotations that include small grains and alfalfa significantly reduces soil erosion. Likewise, choosing the right rotation of crops will also help reduce the use of pesticides. In planning the rotation, it is best to design the rotation in such a way that the farm will meet the farm needs and goals for the yield as well as prevent erosion.
Crop residue management is also recommended. ...

Introduction

Being able to identify how predation and competition influence natural selection is essential in understanding the evolutionary ecology of a population of species. In predation, substandard individuals are inherently selected. By substandard these are the young, sick and physically unfit individuals. As a result, preys also evolve into a more resilient ones putting pressure also to the predators. This scenario reflects a coevolution of both predators and preys. In this study, we will examine the predatory-prey relationship and understand the dynamics involved in relation to environmental changes.

Methodology

Four different kinds of prey and five different kinds of predator were considered in this study. ...

INTRODUCTION

Baghouse filters are fabric filter units consisting of one or more isolated sections containing an array of fabric bags (Vatavuk, 1998). Shapes of these bags range from round, flat, tube-shaped, to pleated cartridges. In theory, gas containing high particulate matter level passes through the fabric bag surface. The particulate matter is retained while the cleaned gas is either recycled to the process or vented off the exhaust. This paper attempts to discuss the different concepts behind baghouse filters in relation to environmental engineering. Specifically, this paper discusses (a) particle pollution, (b) baghouse filter principle, (c) filter media selection, (d) types of ...

Abstract

This experiment is meant to investigate how environmental factors such as wind, light, and heat affect the rate of transpiration in Zebra plants, Coleus, and Geranium.

Introduction

The OECD Environmental Outlook to 2050 Report paints a grim picture of the Earth’s condition by 2050 (Holloway, 2012). Due to negligence towards the increasing environmental degradation, the changes in climatic conditions are likely to be severe. Simultaneously, it predicts a world population of 9.2 billion people with a global GDP of over 300 trillion USD, four times the 75 trillion USD it was in 2010 (Gillespie, 2014). Over 70 per cent of the population of the planet will live in cities by 2050, as compared to 50 per cent in 2008 (UNEP, 2010). To support ...

- What does ‘characterization’ mean in environmental planning law and what effect does s.106 of the Environmental Planning and Assessment Act 1979 (NSW) have in relation to this? (300 Words)
In environmental planning law, “characterization” refers to a set of procedures used for formulating and determining applications for land use development. At its minimum interpretation, characterization with respect to the development is centrally concerned with the location and allocation of development about its characteristics on the land. In this minimalist interpretation, the role of characterization is to provide a framework within which efficient criteria for formulating and enforcing regulatory decisions ...

Introduction

Transpiration is the process involving the movement of water from the roots through the xylem to the atmosphere via the stomata. About 95% of the water absorbed by plants is transpired to the atmosphere. The plant uses the remaining 5% for its metabolic functions such as photosynthesis and respiration (Ahmadi and Baker, 259).
The movement of water in the vascular plant is as a result of the coordination among the three plant organs: the root, the stem, and the leaf. Roots have root hairs located toward its growing tip. The root hairs form extensions of the epidermal cells referred ...

Paper 1

First order differential equations have been very useful in analyzing important properties of a system, such as stability. Literature has seen many works which have explained very specific examples of systems whose dynamics are described by a set of linear first order differential equations. However, there is little evidence, or rather no holistic explanation to prove the usefulness of simple non-linear differential equations in achieving the same. The aim of the paper studied is to bring to light this usefulness, introduce some practical applications of the same, and to examine the behavioral spectrum of such systems. Further, the paper also addresses ...
