Unit 3 Discussion: Electricity and
Electromagnetic Induction
11 unread reply.11 reply.
In this unit you are learning about the concepts related to energy and heat. It’s important
to not only understand these fundamental concepts but apply them.
Use the Internet or ECPI Online Library to find at least ONE professional or scholarly
source that discusses how one of the following is applied or observed in the real world:
Electrical charge
Electric current
Electromagnetic induction
It is recommended that you try to find research related to your field of study.
Please include the following in your initial post:
Provide a brief summary of your research.
Explain how the research illustrates the concept(s) you are discussing.
Discuss any ethical or practical considerations that might arise from this
application of the concept. These might include (but are not limited to)
environmental impact, safety concerns, or issues of effectiveness.
Your summary must be in your own words.
Be sure to cite your source(s) and include the URL.
Note: Do not choose an application very similar to one already chosen by a classmate.
HINT for finding information: When performing a search, input the words "Technology
using" or "Applications of" _________ (type in the concept) in the search box of a
search engine). Some possible sources to search:
Phys.org
Gizmag.com
Cnet.com
Sciencenews.org
Sciencemag.org
For applications of concepts related to energy and temperature, you may even find
related articles in publications related to the power industry.
Post significant responses to at least two of your classmates. Discuss their research
and the ethical considerations. A simple "I agree with you" WILL NOT be enough to
earn credit. Your replies need to be detailed and in-depth. Because this is a college
course, you are required to post thorough, well-conceived responses.
