k. Graph your data if appropriate (if graphing doesn’t make sense for your experiment, use another VISUAL method for showing your results). Include your graph on your blog with the following analysis: (1 pt)

i. In words, what does this graph tell you about the relationship between number of coils and number of nails? (1 pt)(independent) (dependent)
ii. If x represents number of coils and y represents number of nails, the equation for this relationship is:y=0.18x-2.89. (1 pt, if applicable)
iii. Using this equation, it may be possible to predict the number of nails picked up and number of coils needed (1 pt if applicable)(come up with an end to this statement that makes sense for your experiment)
iv. For example: y=0.18x-2.89 x=600 coils
y=? nails
y=0.18(600)-2.89 y=105.11 nails
no such thing of point eleventh of a nail so it is 105 nails would be picked up.
v. How might your results be innacurate? What possible errors could have occurred that would lessen your confidence in your results? My points do not match where the line is and my radius squared doesnt equal one, if it equaled one my points would match the line. Also the way i wrapped the coils some were on top of each other so the ones on top of each other didn't have as much of an affect so that could be a problem.
vi. How might you change the experiment to reduce or eliminate these errors? (1 pt)
One of the things i would change is the way i wrapped the coils around the bolt i would have done it the way there is more of an effect.
l. Your conclusions. Do your results lead you to an answer to your original “testable” question? Why/why not? Explain thoroughly using your data to support your claims. (1 pt)
My original question was Does the number of coils effect an Electro-magnet? Bylooking At the graph obviously it does the more coils i used the more nails were picked up.
m. A list of at least three further questions you still have after performing the experiment. (1 pt) 1. How would the data points look if the Radius equaled 1?
2. Is there a electro magnetin every piece of technology that has a switch?
3. Who made the Electro-Magnet?
n. How does your experiment connect to the gadget you took apart? Explain in at least one paragraph. (1 pt)
In the toaster I was taking Apart there was a switch that was held down by a Electro-Magnet. I seen it I wondered so hard how that Electro-Magnet worked. I very interested in it so it was the part I chose to my expieriment on it. Now I know how it holds it down in the toaster there were many coils I saw so, it was enough to hold down the part to hold the switch down. The Electro-Magnet had held a part down that also held down anohter part down it held the switch down. The coils does affect the Electro-Magnet, it affects the strength of the magnet. I really enjoyed this expieriment it may have took a while but the finished product looks great.
o. Provide links to other resources for further reading. (1 pt)
How Stuff Works
p. Include a bibliography that shows all your sources. (1 pt)

1) Include pictures and explanation of your new gadget.
This is a picture of what i was doing. That is the electro magnet as you can see it is picking up a nail that little bit coils coils was only picking up one as i contiued to put more coils it picked up more nails. All you need is a connection for the flow of the electricity to reach the Electro-magnet and it will work.
2) Explain how your new gadget works using the concepts you have explored.
People don't know there is more to a toaster that just toasting bread. There are parts that play big part, like the ectro magnet it holds down a part to activate a switch. The switch turns on the heat to toast the bread.

Amish Reflection

The Amish, Christian people who live like it is Jesus time. Meaning no technology. They seperate themselves from the other people who use technology. They made a really big impact because even themselves need technology like the telephone.That's it, It really seems like it is crazy but they have been surving for many years.The Amish use it from time to time to get in touch with there family members but other wise they don't because it is against there religion. The same way we adapted to technology they adapted without it. It is simple it just there way of living. For them to make it this far there is no problem with the way they are living.Me personally can't live like that if my life depended on it.

There are alot of switches and since i couldn't find out too much about switches my teacher did me a favor and got me some switches from Home Depot and they are switches you would see alot. Like a daily switch to on and turn off your light. There is also a circiut breaker like if in your house the power turns off because therwe is to many things are on and there is a littel closet with a switch that isn't like others and when you flick it all the power comes back on thats a circuit breaker. They hold amps instead of volts. The circuit Breaker is more powerful than your average switch be cause the power you use for a switch it goes straight to the circuit breaker. The electricity flows through the wires to the circuit breaker. These are photos of what i am talkin about.

In class i'm working on taking apart a toaster. Well i have to learn all types of things about and so I decided to let everyone know. Toaster have a big history and i believe everyone should know a bout it because there is a lot of cool thing about it. Well toasting bread goes all the way back, around the time of the Romans. Olong way back huh? The toaster wasn't invented until the late 1800's to the early 1900's. So your probably wondering how was toast being made without a toaster, well the people back then use to take bread and put it over an open fire and let it toast. Sounds like hard times? well they were until Thomas Edison discovered Electricity and years later the toaster was invented. So from now to back then, toaster wise we (as in the U.S) have done well because toaster use to look like hell. If you want to learn more check out this link. Toaster History

That is just one of the two objects in the toaster that i'm researching deeply. As time goes i learn more and more abut this toast im researching. The other object that i'm doing is pretty simple i'm just learning how a switch functions these are two object are really interesting.

That is the definition of the electro magnet my definition is a magnet that get magnetic energy from from flows of electricity.



This image right here is a toaster from the early 1900's and i just thought it wold be for everyone to see how much toaster have evolved since. Obviously alot because if you look at toaster now you feel like it the future. By looking at this toaster you are probably wondering where the bread goes. That is how much it evolved now some toatser can hold up to 4 peaces of bread. people probably think that now this toaster is obselete because alot the new ones are out. Well now maybe more people can appreciate toaster because it damn near came from nothing. Everyone should thank Thomas Edison Because without him there is no electricity. The world now lives off of electricity.

According to the author, why has New York become such a popular city for Blogging? Use at least one quote from the article to support your claims.

Well, he is talking about how New york is the perfect place for blogging. In his words he said "Blogs are very much at home in the New york city spirit of doing things yourself, instead of depending on a big name to back you up." So he is aying that blogging is something for people trying get all the credit and doing everything from scratch.

What motivates people to keep their own blogs? Use at least one quote from the article to provide an example. (use the Blockquote tool in your toolbar to indent the quote.

To keep going never to give up and blogs might be something real huge and You the blogger can be apart of this. Well alot of people see the asimllated Negros blog and see his and are like he is on am New york. blogs help people as a whole and this proven when in the article it says "(those who makes a living through blogging), say that New yorkers have been uniquely in employing this technology as a business and as a art." It helps.

Choose one New York-based blog from the article that you find interesting, and give a paragraph summary of what the blog is about. Who is the author? How long have they been blogging? Why do they blog?Inside your paragraph, provide your readers a link to the blog.

The Assimlated Negro why i likke his blog is because he knows how to put his voice like in his blog he is talking about in the beginning is how come he didn't get the new yorker or something else he kind of believes the reason for that is that he is a African American. He also believes he is the king of blogging. He seems like he is cool person because his voice and the way he speaks. There is more to blogging than alot of people know and i believe he knows. Blogging can sometimes fun and there is a good chance your voice can be heard. If you want to learn or see more amout this Blog king then check his blog out at http://theassimilatednegro.blogspot.com/

Your assignment is to post web definitions for the following words:

electric circuit-electrical circuit is an interconnection of electrical elements such as resistors, inductors, capacitors, diodes, switches and transistors.

electrical conductor-Electrical conduction is the movement of electrically charged particles through a transmission medium. The movement can form an electric current in response to an electric field.

electrical insulator-An Insulator is a material or object which resists the flow of electric charge.

http://www.Ask.com

Make sure to include your sources.

How can YOU define these in your own words based on our experiment with batteries, bulbs, wires, and different materials? How can you test to determine whether a material is a conductor or an insulator? How do you know when a circuit is a CLOSED circuit?

A circuit is when the electricity travel fom onr point to the other but it has to be all connected.If the alligator clips reach each other on the object but the light bulbs don't come on it is a insulator. If the light does cut on that means it is a conductor.If you want to know if the circuit is closed the light bulbs will turn on thats how you know which is a closed circuit.

How do these concepts apply to your object? What parts are made of conductors? Insulators? How did you know? Are any circuits are present? How can you tell? Use pictures to explain, if you want.

Well it connects pretty well because it can tell me which is a conductor and which is an insulator. The reflector pans are big part of the object and i had already tested it so it is a conductor. Some of the wiring was considered a insulator. Mainly metalic things were conductor and other's were insulator.

What do you think a semiconductor is? Predict the meaning....Then look it up. Are there any semi-conductors in your object. Where? What parts are made of semi-conductors and what special roles do they play?

A semiconductor is a ... maybe a conductor that gives less electricty than a normal one would give. A semiconductor is a material with an electrical conductivity that is intermediate between that of an insulator and a conductor.(this is the real meaning) My object is a toaster on the coils of the toaster when i put the alligator clips on them only one light bulb came on so i think that may be a semiconductor. In the coils they held a pair of ceramic insulators so i guess a little electricity came out.
