Alternate Fuel Sources for Vehicles Introduction This project investigates alternative fuel source cars, such as Biodiesel, Hydrogen Fuel Cell, Natural Gas, Ethanol (e85), and Hybrid. I choose this topic when I realized how much people are paying for a fuel (gasoline) that only gives you 30% efficiency per gallon. This means that for every $100.00 that you spend on gas, you are wasting $70.00. Purpose My goal is to educate people about current fuel sources, so they can make more educated
Fossil fuels are an important part of life. When you turn on the lights, watch TV, or take a shower, the electricity that you are using is being generated by fossil fuels. The three types of fossil fuels are coal, crude oil, and natural gas. They all take millions of years to form, so they are considered to be “non-renewable”- eventually, the fossil fuels will all be used up. One dangerous biological effect of using fossil fuels is ocean acidification. Extracting and transporting fossil fuels can also
in which the energy is stored. Low-carbohydrate diets work by cutting back on the body’s main fuel source, carbohydrates, and replacing it with fat and protein. While protein and fat have other vital uses in the body, they do not provide any energy. So, the body is forced to burn fat for fuel. Low-calorie diets simply proscribe a lower overall caloric intake thereby providing the body with insufficient fuel, again forcing the body to dip into its reserves. Low-fat diets reduce fat intake because proponents
The Anti-War Movement in the USA in the 1960-1970s Source Based Source A is an extract from the book "Four hours in Me Lai", written by Michael Bilton in 1992. The book is about the events that happened in My Lai, and it endeavours to explain why the USA lost the war in Vietnam. It is targeting mainly the adult population, in England, the USA and other English speaking countries. On one hand it does have sufficient evidence to explain why there was an anti-war movement as the content is all
Comparing Two Sources There are disagreements and agreements between source A and source B. Source A was from a report written by a journalist Humphrey Tyler, who worked for a South African magazine. The report was written later on the same day that the shooting occurred. Source B was from an English newspaper, published the day after the shooting. Source A and source B both agree and disagree with each other over different things. In both sources they agree that there were Saracens involved
Can the Source of Aggression be Found in the Brain? In Holland, male members of a certain family were found to be prone to violent outbursts; one male, criticized by his employer, attempted to run him over with a car - another raped his sister and was sent to a mental hospital - a third coerced his sister into undressing by threatening her with a knife. Such men display retarded motor development, difficulties in task planning, and awkward sexual behavior. (1). Recently, researchers claimed
Catholics in Northern Ireland 1. Source A indicates the problems Catholics in Northern Ireland had finding jobs in the 1960's. It says, "The big employers were privately run companies" who could easily be "anti-Catholic" and gives the example of the Belfast shipyard which was the biggest source of employment in the city which out of 10,000 workers only employed 400 Catholics. This shows even the biggest companies were anti-Catholic. Source A also gives the example of Fermanagh, a County
The Change of a River From Its Source to Its Mouth Main Aim: To find out in which ways a river changes from its source to its mouth. We traveled to the west coast of Wales to find out how a river changes from its source to its mouth. We were situated in the small rural village of Tal-y-bont, which was near the town of Aberystwyth. The river that we decided to test out with our hypothesis and find out our aim on was the river Einion. The river Einion is a tributary to the river Dovey
The White Feather Campaign 1. The message of the poster, source A, is for families to encourage the man to sign up for the army and go off to war to fight for the country. They did this because compared to the German army at the beginning of the war, it was very small. The artist conveys the message of two women who are both from different classes waving off their husbands and sons who are going off to war. They are comforting each other implying that all women should come together and
Working Conditions of Children in Textile Mills After thorough investigation into 5 sources referring to the working conditions for children in factories during the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries, we now have the opportunity to bind all the facts together and create a detailed account. However, there are still questions over the reliability of some of the sources, so further research and comparisons with other mills need to be made. Making comparisons will also indicate the
as they wanted. Source A tells us about the 9 black students who ‘risked their lives for a principle’, by enrolling at Little Rock High School. It tells us about the federal troops who kept the angry mob of white students at bay, but it doesn’t tell us when the event happened. This would affect the source’s usefulness as is doesn’t give a specific key fact. It was written by the ‘Chicago Daily Defender’ which is a black newspaper. This would reduce the reliability of the source as it is likely to
Academic Integrity As defined in the dictionary, plagiarism is “to take someone else’s ideas, words, etc. and use them as one’s own”. Just like the source of this definition is mentioned here, it is very important for everyone to quote the original sources of any material they use for their own reports, essays or any piece of writing. If they fail to do so, then it will be termed as “plagiarism”. Previously students used to copy paragraphs from a range of scholarly journals or books, which was very
Evaluating a Website for Credibility: www.cdc.gov To evaluate the credibility of a website and support as a credible source for inclusion in a scholarly assignment, the student chose to evaluate www.CDC.gov. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is a component of the Department of Health and Human Services that conducts critical science and provides important health information that protects the nation against dangerous health threats. This website was chosen by the student for a

My first source is Huff Post Green, its a news website for all over the world news. Huff post green talks about what need to be done to stop the extinction of wild life tigers. It gives information on how to bring back and double the population of tigers. One of the country that this website talks about the most for the decrease in the tiger population is China, because of the medicine they use from tigers. The main point of this article is getting the plan ready to save the tigers before 2022
correctly analyzing sources, and developing a well-rounded, complete paper. I have progressed a writer over the semester by effectively integrating and analyzing sources better, and being more specific with my words. Throughout this semester, I gained skills learned in class and through peer evaluations that improved my writing skills to make my papers more academic. In the beginning of the semester, I was still using old skills that I had in high school for my papers. I would just add sources randomly in
argument. Most of the sources that they use seem reliable. The Point and Counterpoint author cites several evidence from the same sources. For example, both authors include evidence from Valerie Tripp and David Cesarani. The Point author cited several blogs, which can be unreliable. Though, most of the sources that the point author gives is credible and reputable. The Counterpoint author provides many bibliographies to support his argument and they all seem reliable. The sources that the counterpoint
committed by Hester with Dimmesdale. It talked about how her sin is in the will and not the sinful act itself. Pearl is the living representation of their sin. And it focused on the freewill of Hester and Pearl returning on their own. I found this source to be really useful but it had a lot of information in it so it was hard to soak it all in so it is helpful taking notes and highlighting key words while reading this article. The word choice was difficult in some paragraphs so I had to look up a
to victory in the First World War. The sources disagreed more than they agreed, some showed both agreement with this interpretation and disagreement but they mostly disagreed due to reliability of the different sources. So there isn’t sufficient evidence in Sources A to H to support this interpretation. Sources F and G were the only two sources that weren’t written by Haig, that support him being a highly skilled soldier that lead Britain into victory. Source F shows that if Haig ‘refused to fight
information and material rapidly without having to put too much effort in themselves, but it can result in poor quality work. In the end, college students need to practice caution when using the information available online by checking other more reliable sources for accuracy because the risk of receiving a low grade for using inaccurate information can really cause future problems in students’ educational career plan. In addition, technology can hamper a students’ educational experience when it causes problems
