For the people that got sent here by teachers and also look at the transcript, I copied most of it from there. Like everything from the transcript. Notes: - Energy is a physical quantity that follows precise natural laws. It is neither created nor created and takes different forms such as kinetic or potential energy. - Earth Physical Systems; the atmosphere, hydrosphere, lithosphere, and biosphere. During any energy transfer between them, some are lost to their surroundings. As heat, light, sound, vibration, or movement. - Our planet's energy comes from internal and external sources. Geothermal energy from radioactive isotopes and rotational energy from the spinning of the Earth are internal sources of energy. - While the Sun is the major external source, driving certain systems, like our weather and climate. Sunlight warms the surface and atmosphere in varying amounts, and this causes convection producing winds and influencing ocean current. ___________________________________ The Sun is also the major source of energy for organisms. ~ Infrared radiation, radiating out from the warmed surface of the Earth, gets trapped by greenhouse gases and further affects the energy flow. ~ - We release this food energy using chemical reactions, like combustion and respiration. We release this food energy using chemical reactions, like combustion and respiration. At each level in a food chain, some energy is stored in newly made chemical structures, but most are lost to the surroundings, as heat, like your body heat, is released by your digestion of food. - Coal, oil, and natural gas, which contain energy that plants captured from sunlight long ago and stored in the form of carbon. When we burn fossil fuels in power plants, we release this stored energy to generate electricity. To generate electricity, heat from burning fossil fuels is used to power turbines that rotate magnets, which, in turn, create magnetic field changes relative to a coil of wire, causing electrons to be induced to flow in the wire. - Electrons can also be induced to flow by direct interaction with light particles, which is how a solar cell operates. Other renewable energy sources, such as wind, water, geothermal, and biofuels can also be used to generate electricity. Finishing note: Global energy demand is increasing, but the planet has limited energy resources to access through complex energy infrastructure. As populations rise, alongside rates of industrialization and development, our energy decisions grow more and more important. Access to energy impacts health, education, political power, and socioeconomic status. If we improve our energy efficiency, we can use our natural resources more responsibly and improve the quality of life for everyone.

Limited? Yes, but HUGE! Just the Sahara Dessert gets hundreds of times more energy în the form of sunlight than humanity consumes! That's just one dessert and it's just sunlight. There's also Wind, geothermal, Tides, ocean currents etc. But we can also get a lot of energy from nuclear sources. Fusion has probably the greatest potential. But even modern uranium fission îs great. Uranium fission îs UNJUSTLY demonized. But there are other kinds of fissions, like Thorium.

If you think about it when you pray, all you're doing is projecting your thoughts, via the soul, to the gods. Though as energy they power your every movement, the idea behind it is your own free will. If this makes sense to anyone else we can talk about it.

So, the thing is, all of this this is great. but with energy demands so high, we can do something called "cold fusion." Cold fusion is a hypothesized type of nuclear reaction that would occur at, or near, room temperature. It is also known as LENR, which stands for low-energy nuclear reactions. Cold fusion is a field of condensed matter nuclear science and describes a form of energy generated when hydrogen interacts with various metals like nickel and palladium. The idea behind cold fusion is that fusion could occur at much lower temperatures, making it feasible as an energy source on Earth.

A turbine is a turbine is a turbine. Wind turbines essentially have a huge magnet surrounded by copper coils, when the blades turn the magnet turns, when the magnet turns the electrons in the copper(matalic bonding) are excited by the changing magnetic field and and induced to flow. Hence electricity. Same is true of hydro turbines, same is true of how nuclear and coal plants use steam to turn turbines with magnets!
@JoshAsks3 жыл бұрын
Turbines are the same as almost all power plants except solar - inside the turbine is a giant coil of copper with magnets spinning around the outside. The spinning blades spin these parts which cause electrons to flow, the faster they spin the faster the electrons move etc etc. Hydro uses the same spinning magnets, coal heats water to spin magnets, natural gas heats water to spin magnets, nuclear heats water to spin magnets etc etc that is what a generator does. Generates electricity through the effect of spinning magnets around tightly wound copper coils.

Those generators produce electrons which then go to splitting the water itself into hydrogen and oxygen. The hydrogen is then burned in generators to produce electricity and water. There you have it a way to produce endless amounts of clean green energy using the oceans. I did it all by myself with no college only a lap-top the internet and determination.

How do you prevent oh, say, a tsunami from hitting a reactor? An earthquake? A "whatever disaster that will continue the line of thousands of years of engineering disasters that teach us what we still don't know" event? The fact is, as long as nuclear reactors exist and are operating THERE WILL BE accidents. This is 100% certainty. Without a doubt. Predictable. And proven true. We have not somehow magically reached the point of science, engineering and technology development where we have rendered accidents extinct. Approximately one level 7 INES (major accident on the International Nuclear Event Scale--Chernolyb, Fukushima) every quarter century along with however many smaller accidents. Can you please explain to me how this is clean? Also, how are reactors made? Do you need to mine material from the earth? Is mining a clean process? What powers the mining operation? Is that clean? Did you know the production of cement accounts for something like 8% of global greenhouse gases emissions and is highly energy intensive. Cement is used in concrete and concrete is used to building many things, including nuclear reactors. Is that clean? What powers the plants that make cement? Is that clean? What powers the building of nuclear power plants? What powers all the transportation involved in building a plant? And this energy analysis can go on and on when you ACTUALLY do the energy accounting up and down the entire chain of reality involved in building and operating a nuclear power plant. This analysis can apply to other so-called "clean" energies or "alternative" energies or "sustainable" energies too. However, yes, it is energy dense, yes it is reliable (except when it is devastating a continent or ocean) but the propaganda put out that it is somehow "clean" is absolutely indefensible, based on a unjustified belief and dishonest.

So, I have a question: We all know that most of our society's electricity is induced through the burning of various fossil fuels (unless you're Germany -- kudos to you). The most efficient energy production mechanisms however are not mechanical combustion engines, but instead are the biochemical reactions that drive life. We "spend" electricity in our society with just about everything modern, and sometimes we spend electricity so that we can exercise. Why isn't this the other way around? People want to exercise, which is great, but why aren't fitness studios designed to introduce energy back into the system, rather than expend it? I've seen some ballpark estimates put this at about 100 W from a bicycle generator. I'm curious why this isn't "a thing" -- is there a practical reason this hasn't been done? I'm not an engineer/physicist so I don't know the practicality of these sorts of ideas.
@TEDEd10 жыл бұрын
Great brainstorm, thestrangejames! Thanks for sharing it with us. I would be willing to bet there's an expert (engineer/physicist) out there that can help us answer some of these questions. Maybe they could even do a Lesson for us. Do you know of anybody? If so, you can tell us about them here: ed.ted.com/nominate_an_educator We'd be totally down to think about these questions and work with somebody to help explain them.

@SkyrimHod10 жыл бұрын
Probably because the amount of energy produced by something like a fitness studio would be trivial enough to not be worth mentioning. 100W is nothing compared to the several megawatts a power plant produces. Also electricity needs to be produced in just the right amounts needed at the time it is being used since it's difficult to store. A better solution would be for people to stop getting out of work, taking the elevator down to the ground floor, and getting in their car to go to the fitness studio where they then use the stair-climbing machine and exercise bikes...
@JoshAsks10 жыл бұрын
Additional issues would be the COST to the fitness studio to purchase the required technology. Energy is still relatively cheap and the cost benefit isn't quite there yet. You have seen the soccer ball light? There are shoes that can be used to plug in your cell phone as they create energy as you walk. www.gizmag.com/in-shoe-energy-harvester/19623/ So the future is bright for creative ideas, there just needs unfortunately to be a cost benefit associated.
@JoshAsks10 жыл бұрын
I asked an energy expert to weigh in. Here is his response. Some do - see for example www.thegreenmicrogym.com/electricity-generating-equipment/ But, the main problems are scale and cost. Mostly, humans just can’t make all that much power on the scale of our use, and electricity is cheap. 100 W is reasonable for moderate exercise (see onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/clc.4960130809/pdf) - cycling is generally in that range. But let’s say an execbike is in use for 8 hours a day at that level (probably a high estimate, but for example) - that is 8 hr * 100 W = 0.8 kWh. That’s about 8-10 cents worth of electricity from eight hours of cycling. So even over a year, we’re talking about a couple bucks of electricity per bike. So no matter how cheap the electronics to make the feedback work so you can put it into the building or the grid, it is hard to imagine that costing out. You could (and I believe some bikes do), however, use the energy to run the bike interface system and TV, which is more possible because you can then avoid some other power electronics (and maybe not plug it in at all). But again, we’re not talking about much real avoided energy. When people ask me about this, I tell them there are many, many better ways to spend money and effort than trying to capture human excercise. This is unfortunate - because it does have great appeal! This reminds me of one interesting way to try to have intuition for this fundamental fact - that humans don’t produce very much energy on the scale of our use - is to translate energy use into the equivalent of people on bikes. A typical household uses 11,000 kWh per year, or 30 kWh per day. This is the equivalent (based on the conversion above) of about 38 people riding exerbikes in 8 hour shifts every day at 100 W (not easy or fun!) to power every home! That helps with the intuition - imagine your home (this doesn’t include your car, your job, any of that) being powered instead of by the grid, by a large group of excercycles, and you realize how much value we get from cheap, cheap electricity - that day’s worth of electricity costs $3-4, not the thousands you would have to pay people to ride all day. Plus, this doesn’t include the food those poor cyclists would have to eat, and the energy to produce that. Another thing to be careful of is the declaration the biomechanical processes are efficient. They actually aren’t that efficiency from an energy conversion perspective. Photosynthesis overall is generally calculated to capture only about 0.5% of light energy, and every time an organism metabolizes something up to 90% is generally estimated to be ‘wasted’. So if you compare growing a crop to run a power plant vs. growing a crop to feed us to make power, the power plant will win every time. That is of course not a reason not to exercise - just a reason that “people power” will probably never power the world directly! Of course, we can put “people power” into creating smarter energy systems that avoid most of the problems created by energy use.

josh sneideman Thank you very much. I can say without doubt this is one of the highest quality responses I've ever received about something scientific. It's too bad it wouldn't work, or at least not very well. Still, I wonder if human power could ever be put to (ethical) use in other areas of society where combustion or electrical machines now predominate.

I really think that is a horrible request for a Ted-Ed video. This series should be rooted in fact, not fiction. Belief is taught and learned, not something we are born with and religion (because, and let's be honest here, that is what you are asking to have explained) has no place being involved with science or facts. Religion is based in belief and only belief. You believe what you do because that is what you were exposed to while you were growing up. You get the major set of formative beliefs from your parents and during your educational years. Mom and Dad teach you right from wrong, what religion to follow, and all of the societal expectations (like laws) to follow when you go out in the world and you pick up the rest as you have experiences during your life. If you speed while driving, for example, the police will pull you over and punish you for breaking a law (and yes, a law is an agreed upon belief). Philosophy, on the other hand, is an examination of rationale and logic to try and explain those beliefs. You need to ask why the different philosophies exist, not about beliefs. Going back to the speeding example, why do the police care? Because we all agreed that it is safer to travel at a certain speed when we are driving. If we suddenly stopped enforcing laws, it wouldn't cause the world to end...it would just be a lot more dangerous to drive around because most people won't be safe in their cars. That's the rationale behind speeding laws. It's a belief, but its one that can be explained through logic and reason. Religion has no basis in rationale and logic and therefore no place in philosophy. We use religion to help us understand why things are the way they are and to keep people from panicking because we don't understand the origin of our universe, why we are born, or why we die. It's like Aesop's fables or Grimm fairy tales. Sure, it is entertaining and can teach us morality, but it has no place in an intelligent society.

The arrow in the bottom right between Decomposers and Producers should not be there (2:10 - 2:35). Decomposers DO NOT provide energy to Producers. +josh sneideman
@bryanesmith87397 жыл бұрын
Yes, however, this video is about energy and specifically in the diagram that I am referencing the narration is about the average percentage of energy that is passed to the next trophic level. I maintain that the arrow pointing towards the producers should be removed as producers get their energy from the sun.
@Turtle33793 жыл бұрын
Hate to tell you this, but you are WRONG. Without the materials that decomposers cycle into the soil and atmosphere, plants could not perform the processes during photosynthesis that help them produce their own energy and sugars. Potassium, magnesium, and nitrogen are all provided by decomposers breaking down dead/decaying organics, cycled into the soils that plants use, and are directly responsible/involved in the energy creating steps of photosynthesis. In fact, some of the phosphates obtained from the soil as a result of the activity of decomposers is involved in the processing of ADP to ATP as plants perform their own metabolic processes. So, yes...the arrow is where it should be. Let me know and I can provide you the scientific papers and text that show this. I teach this to my Botany and Cell Biology classes every year.
@bryanesmith87393 жыл бұрын
@@Turtle3379 If the arrows are intended to represent ENERGY, they should not be there. The narration at the point that i referenced is all about energy moving through the food chain, not MATTER. If the arrows are supposed to represent MATTER then yes, there should be an arrow from decomposers to the producers. This video is about energy, not matter. Also, your statement "produce their own energy" is factually incorrect. Plants get and store energy from the sun through the production of sugars, they don't MAKE or PRODUCE energy. Additionally, one could argue that the arrow should point from producers to decomposers because of the interchange of sugars and nutrients between soil bacteria and plant roots. The energy goes from the plant roots to the decomposers and non-energy storing materials like nitrogen and phosphorus are passed to the plant roots. I agree that materials are passed back and forth between producers and consumers, but in a video specifically about ENERGY, and that has narration about ENERGY over the section with arrows, I believe that it is misleading to have an arrow implying energy is passed from decomposers to producers.

TED-Ed Correct Daniel Shooshtari. Sound is a mechanical wave and can only travel through the vibration of a medium. That is why sound does not travel in space, there is nothing to vibrate. Interesting fact sound travel faster in water than in air. Why?
@danielshooshtari970210 жыл бұрын
well, I think it must have something to do with the molecules. The molecules in water are closer together, thus it's easier for the molecules to excite adjacent molecules. sound is even faster in iron and that is why you always hear the train through the rails before you hear it through air when you're waiting for the train:)
@teachermorey79615 жыл бұрын
it's to do with the compression of particles in the air. Our ears pick up these compressed particles as sound. No air particles in space to be compressed - therefore no sound

I'm surprised that this video hasn't received more down votes considered it touches the science behind the politically controversial topic of global warming. It also gives ammo to the ever so unpopular vegans thesis by stating that eating producers (e.g. plants) is more efficient than eating consumers (e.g. animals).
