• (Circuit Breakers/Fuses etc)

  • Fuses: A safety device in a circuit that has a metallic conductor with a low melting point compared to the circuits wires. (if current goes too high the fuse will melt)
• (Ways To Generate Electricity)

  • Windmills 
  • Hydro power
  • Solar Power
  • Biomass
  • geothermal
• (Effect on environment)

  • Windmills (Can hurt flying species like birds)
• Formula= N=Wout/Win x 100%
• (Effect On Enviorment)

  • Hydro Power(Flooding, land use, Large environmental impacts)
• (Effect On enviorment)

  Solar Power(WildLife impact, Solar Radiation, Water use)
• (Effect On Enviorment)

  • Biomass(Soil disturbance, Using a lot of water, Money)
• • Geothermal(Noise and sight pollution, Soil subsidence, Production of foul odors)
• • Circuit breakers:  Breakers have the same uses as fuses but instead of the wires not melting they heat up and bend. Triggering a spring mechanic that turns off electric flow.
