Simple Electrical Circuits





ELECTRICITY: ELECTRICAL CIRCUIT: simplified animation of the movement of electrons (the opposite of conventional current) in a simple electric circuit consisting of a battery, a switch and a light bulb.

ELECTRIC CURRENT is the flow of charge. Conventionally this is the flow of positive charge. However, in a simple circuit such as that illustrated the current in the wire is composed of electrons that flow from the negative pole of the battery (the cathode at the bottom of the battery) and return to the positive pole (the anode at the top of the battery, marked by a +). The diagram at the left shows the same circuit as the one in the animation but in a standardised diagrammatic form (i.e. it's a circuit diagram).

SALUD



RIESGOS DE USAR ROPA AJUSTADA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

¿Cuales son los efectos?


Mucha gente elije la ropa de acuerdo a la moda y teniendo en cuenta cómo le queda determinada prenda, especialmente si disimula las imperfecciones que desea corregir. La elección debería ir más allá de una cuestión estética, y muchos expertos recomiendan evitar la ropa extremadamente ajustada.

CUANDO EL TALLE NO ES EL INDICADO
Las consecuencias negativas de la ropa ajustada sobre la salud son muchas, aunque las más usuales son las siguientes:

- La ropa ajustada es la principal enemiga de los músculos, debido a que les impide desempeñar su función correctamente.

- Las personas que habitualmente utilizan vestimentas inadecuadas, son propensas a padecer diversas complicaciones articulares y, muy frecuentemente, hernias.

- El uso de pantalones ajustados es muy riesgos por la presión que ejercen sobre el cuerpo. Por ejempo, se ha comprobado que utilizar los jeans uno o dos talles más chicos de lo que corresponde, puede producir celulitis y várices. Pero este no es el único inconveniente, sino que, además, los pantalones ajustados dificultan la circulación y frenan el regreso de la sangre hacia el corazón, generando una dilatación de las venas.

- Por otro lado, la ropa apretada produce un bloqueo en la circulación de la energía vital a lo largo de los meridianos más superficiales, favoreciendo la agresión de agentes extemos.

EN EL PLANO GINECOLÓGICO
Además de los problemas circulatorios, ciertas prendas provocan, sobre todo en las mujeres jóvenes, fisuras cutáneas y toda clase de irritaciones e infecciones urinarias ETC.



Celulitis: ya que la presión dificulta la microcirculación entre las células adiposas, dificultando el drenaje y produciendo acumulación de toxinas.

Estrías: ya que esta ropa estira la piel, sobre todo al sentarnos.

Varices: por la dificultad que produce en la circulación de las extremidades.

Piel reseca: y áspera: la piel no se oxigena lo que produce estos efectos.

Problemas circulatorios a largo plazo. Hay que tener mucho cuidado y es por esto que usar faldas como atuendos alternativos es una apuesta muy saludable para nuestro cuerpo.

Chemical energy









Chemical energy is very useful because it can be stored for long periods of time. It can also be used to produce many other forms of energy.

For example, chemical energy in batteries can be stored for long periods of time, and can be used to produce other forms of energy such as light and heat.






Heat Transfer


Heat Transfer

Heat travels from a hot object to a cold object.
You might say that heat flows down a temperature hill.
So how does heat travel from one object to another?
By Conduction, Convection and Radiation.

Liquids and gases do not conduct heat very well, but they can transfer heat by CONVECTION.
Convection, heat is transferred from one place to another by the motion of the gas or liquid.



CONDUCTION is the main way for heat to transfer through solid materials. For example, the outside surface of an engine gets hot because heat energy is transferred from the combustion chamber through the metal to the outside surface.

All solid materials conduct heat, but some do a better job than others. Generally, metals are good conductors while porous materials are not.

Styrofoam is an example of a poor conductor.
It is a great insulator.
Good conductors of electricity are usually good conductors of heat.



The easiest way to explain heat transfer by RADIATION is by the heat we feel from the sun.
Even though the sun is about 93 million miles away from the earth, we still feel some of its heat.
It travels to earth through the vacuum (no air) of space by way of rays!

Heat Energy




The heat energy of a substance is determined by how active its atoms and molecules are. A hot object is one whose atoms and molecules are excited and show rapid movement. A cooler object's molecules and atoms will be less excited and show less movement. When these guys are in the excited state, they take up a lot of space because they're moving around so fast. When the atoms and molecules settle down, or cool down, they take up less space.




If a HOT high-energy atom comes into contact with a cool low-energy atom, the excited atom will loose some of its energy to the cool atom. The two atoms will settle into an energy level that's between where they each started out. That level is called Thermal Equilibrium. Did you know a lot of racecar drivers will let their engines cool down while idling before shutting it off after a hard race? They do this to let all of the internal engine parts come to Thermal Equilibrium.





Experiment: If you have a cup of really hot chocolate and want to cool it down, you may put and ice cube in the cup. After the ice completely melts, stir the chocolate. The hot chocolate and the melted ice have come to Thermal Equilibrium.

PLATE TECTONICS


convergent boundary

also known as a destructive plate boundary (because of subduction), is an actively deforming region where two (or more) tectonic plates or fragments of lithosphere move toward one another and collide. As a result of pressure, friction, and plate material melting in the mantle, earthquakes and volcanoes are common near convergent boundaries.




divergent plate boundary (also known as a constructive boundary or an extensional boundary) is a linear feature that exists between two tectonic plates that are moving away from each other.




A transform fault or transform boundary, also known as conservative plate boundary, is a type of fault at the margin of a tectonic plate whose relative motion is horizontal in either sinistral or dextral direction. Typically, some vertical motion may also exist, but the principal vectors in a transform fault are oriented horizontally.

GEOTHERMAL ENERGY






Types of Geothermal Plants

There are three basic types of geothermal power plants:

* Dry steam plants use steam piped directly from a geothermal reservoir to turn the generator turbines. The first geothermal power plant was built in 1904 in Tuscany, Italy, where natural steam erupted from the Earth.
* Flash steam plants take high-pressure hot water from deep inside the Earth and convert it to steam to drive the generator turbines. When the steam cools, it condenses to water and is injected back into the ground to be used over and over again. Most geothermal power plants are flash steam plants.
* Binary cycle power plants transfer the heat from geothermal hot water to another liquid. The heat causes the second liquid to turn to steam which is used to drive a generator turbine.




Geothermal Energy Is Generated Deep Inside the Earth
Image of the earth's interior, from the outside to the inside, with the crust, the mantle of magma and rock, the outer core of magma, and the innermost core of iron.


Geothermal energy is generated in the Earth's core. Temperatures hotter than the sun's surface are continuously produced inside the Earth by the slow decay of radioactive particles, a process that happens in all rocks. The Earth has a number of different layers:

* The core itself has two layers: a solid iron core and an outer core made of very hot melted rock, called magma.
* The mantle surrounds the core and is about 1,800 miles thick. It is made up of magma and rock.
* The crust is the outermost layer of the Earth, the land that forms the continents and ocean floors. It can be 3 to 5 miles thick under the oceans and 15 to 35 miles thick on the continents.

Simple Electrical Circuits


Electricity will not flow if the circuit is not complete .

Look carefully at the drawing and decide why the circuit is not complete.

ANSWER THIS QUESTION THROUGH A COMMENT WITH YOUR NAME











Electricity will only flow in a complete circuit.

The bulb is connected in a circuit to a battery using two wires.

Kinds of Blood Vessels



Kinds of Blood Vessels

The human circulatory system includes five types of blood vessels:
arteries,
arterioles,
capillaries,
venules and veins.

The purpose of blood vessels is to carry blood to and from the heart, while delivering oxygen and nutrients to cells and removing carbon dioxide and other wastes.

Arteries

An artery is a blood vessel that carries oxygenated blood away from the heart; however, the pulmonary arteries are the only arteries to carry deoxygenated blood, which is taken to the lungs.

Arterioles ( NOT STUDIED IN CLASS )


Arterioles are tiny arteries that branch off from a main artery to carry blood to the cells.

Arterioles are the main blood vessels that control blood pressure. Arterioles also lead to, and carry blood to, capillaries.


Veins
A vein is a blood vessel that carries deoxygenated blood back to the heart; however, pulmonary veins carry oxygenated blood from the lungs to the heart.


Venules ( NOT STUDIED IN CLASS )
Venules are tiny blood vessels, each one connected to many capillaries. Each capillary drains into a venule, allowing for the waste-filled blood to enter veins and be carried back toward the heart.

CIRCULATORY SYSTEM




Science Factfile

* Red blood cells carry oxygen from the lungs to all the cells of the body.
* White blood cells are like soldiers protecting the body.
* ARTERIES are vessels that carry blood away from the heart.
* VEINS are vessels that carry blood back to the heart.
* Blood CIRCULATES--circles--all around your body in about one or two minutes.
* Inside the heart are four hollow chambers. Each chamber is a little pump. The pumping pushes blood all around your body.

ELECTRIC CHARGE


ELECTRIC CHARGE
Electrons are said to have a negative charge, which means that they seem to be surrounded by a kind of invisible force field. This is called an electrostatic field.


Protons

Protons are much larger and heavier than electrons. Protons have a positive electrical charge.

Like charges repel, unlike charges attract

Two electrons will tend to repel each other because both have a negative electrical charge. Two protons will also tend to repel each other because they both have a positive charge. On the other hand, electrons and protons will be attracted to each other because of their unlike charges.

Since the electron is much smaller and lighter than a proton, when they are attracted to each other due to their unlike charges, the electron usually does most of the moving.


Review

1. Electrons have a negative electrostatic charge and protons have a positive electrostatic charge.
2. A good way to remember what charge protons have is to remember both proton and positive charge start with "P."
3. Like charges repel, unlike charges attract, just like with magnets.

Water Cycle



Earth's water is always in movement, and the water cycle, also known as the hydrologic cycle, describes the continuous movement of water on, above, and below the surface of the Earth. Although the balance of water on Earth remains fairly constant over time, individual water molecules can come and go in a hurry. Since the water cycle is truly a "cycle," there is no beginning or end. Water can change states among liquid, vapor, and ice at various places in the water cycle, with these processes happening in the blink of an eye and over millions of years.


The water cycle has no starting point. But, we'll begin in the oceans, since that is where most of Earth's water exists. The sun, which drives the water cycle, heats water in the oceans. Some of it evaporates as vapor into the air. Ice and snow can sublimate directly into water vapor. Rising air currents take the vapor up into the atmosphere, along with water from evapotranspiration, which is water transpired from plants and evaporated from the soil. The vapor rises into the air where cooler temperatures cause it to condense into clouds.

Air currents move clouds around the globe, cloud particles collide, grow, and fall out of the sky as precipitation.
Some precipitation falls as snow and can accumulate as ice caps and glaciers, which can store frozen water for thousands of years.
Snowpacks in warmer climates often thaw and melt when spring arrives, and the melted water flows overland as snowmelt.

Most precipitation falls back into the oceans or onto land, where, due to gravity, the precipitation flows over the ground as surface runoff.

A portion of runoff enters rivers in valleys in the landscape, with streamflow moving water towards the oceans.
Runoff, and ground-water seepage, accumulate and are stored as freshwater in lakes. Not all runoff flows into rivers, though.
Much of it soaks into the ground as infiltration.
Some water infiltrates deep into the ground and replenishes aquifers (saturated subsurface rock), which store huge amounts of freshwater for long periods of time.

Some infiltration stays close to the land surface and can seep back into surface-water bodies (and the ocean) as groundwater discharge, and some ground water finds openings in the land surface and emerges as freshwater springs.
Over time, though, all of this water keeps moving, some to reenter the ocean, where the water cycle "ends" ... oops - I mean, where it "begins."

Happy 2011!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



New year , new ideas, new ways of thinking, new ways of behaving etc.
Before or at the beginning of every year myself and i do not know how many more do the same, but I make a self relection of what I have done good, what I have done bad, what i could do better and of course , what great changes can I do for the coming year.

All around around us changes, technology, plants, animals, our body,people, way of thinking, politics, government and more so why do we have to remain thinking and doing the same things? We need changes in our lives in order to see what we left behind and what can we foreshadow in the future.

I just want to share these few lines with you my bloggers, God bless you today and always and make all changes in your daily life always, HAPPY 2011!!!!!!!!!!! AJUAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!
