The document discusses different types of renewable energy sources including biomass, wind power, water power, geothermal, and solar power. Renewable energy comes from natural sources like sunlight, wind, rain, tides, waves and geothermal heat that are replenished naturally and sustainably. Biomass energy is obtained from organic matter like plants and is stored in the form of chemical energy. Wind power uses wind turbines to convert the kinetic energy of wind into electrical energy. Water power harnesses the kinetic energy of moving water to generate hydroelectricity. Geothermal energy taps into the Earth's natural internal heat to provide energy. Solar power utilizes the sun's radiation to produce electricity or heat via technologies like solar

about generating power with good environment measures,as convectional process may damage the atmosphere ,,&more ever using unlimited resources to have generation of acive or usefull power .as the coal is main resource in generating power but it may exist for long time,,,so its our intension to find a resource that exit for long time
INTRODUCTION OF ALTERNATIVE SOURCES OF ENERGY: We know that by the time conventional sources of energy will deplete soon due to improved technological progress and increased demand. To cater the rising demand, keeping a balance with limited with limited availability of conventional sources is very important. It is mandatory to look up to the alternative sources of energy which we also term as non-conventional sources of energy.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

Acetabularia Information For Class 9 .docxvaibhavrinwa19
Acetabularia acetabulum is a single-celled green alga that in its vegetative state is morphologically differentiated into a basal rhizoid and an axially elongated stalk, which bears whorls of branching hairs. The single diploid nucleus resides in the rhizoid.
1. RENEWABLE ENERGY SOURCES
What is renewable energy?
Energy exists freely in nature. Some of them exist infinitely (never run out, called
RENEWABLE), the rest have finite amounts (they took millions of years to form,
and will run out one day, called NON-RENEWABLE)
Let's look at these types of energy in the diagram above.
You will notice that water, wind, sun and biomass (vegetation) are all available
naturally and were not formed. The others do not exist by themselves, they were
formed. Renewable energy resources are always available to be tapped, and
will not run out. This is why some people call it Green Energy.
2. What is Biomass ?
Biomass fuels come from things that once lived: wood products, dried
vegetation, crop residues, aquatic plants and even garbage. It is known as
'Natural Material'. Plants used up a lot of the sun's energy to make their
own food (photosysnthesis). They stored the foods in the plants in the
form of chemical energy. As the plants died, the energy is trapped in the
residue. This trapped energy is usually released by burning and can be
converted into biomass energy.
3. How is biomass converted into
energy?
●
Burning
This is a very common way of converting organic matter into energy.
●
Decomposition
Things that can rot, like garbage, human and animal waste, dead animals
and the like can be left to rot, releasing a gas called biogas (also known as
methane gas or landfill gas).
●
Fermentation
Ethanol can be produced from crops with lots if sugars, like corn and
sugarcane. The process used to produce ethanol is called gasification.
4. What is Wind Power?
The earth's surface has both land and water. When the sun comes up, the air over
the land heats up quicker than that over water. The heated air is lighter and it rises.
The cooler air is denser and it falls and replaced the air over the land. In the night
the reverse happens. Air over the water is warmer and rises, and is replaced by
cooler air from land.
The moving air (wind) has huge amounts of kinetic energy, and this can be
transferred into electrical energy using wind turbines. The wind turns the blades,
which spin a shaft, which connects to a generator and makes electricity. The
electricity is sent through transmission and distribution lines to a substation, then
on to homes, business and schools.
5. Water power
Water power scheme
Moving water has kinetic energy. This can be transferred into useful energy in
different ways. Hydroelectric power (HEP) schemes store water high up in dams.
The water has gravitational potential energy which is released when it falls.
Sluice Gates: These can open and close to regulate the amount of water that is
released into the pipes.
6. Geothermal
In some places the rocks underground are hot. Deep wells can be
drilled and cold water pumped down. The water runs through fractures
in the rocks and is heated up. It returns to the surface as hot water and
steam, where its' energy can be used to drive turbines and electricity
generators.
Geothermal energy is called a renewable energy source because the
water is replenished by rainfall, and the heat is continuously produced
by the earth.
7. Solar power
Solar
"Solar" is the Latin word for "sun" and it's a powerful source of energy. Without
it, there will be no life. Solar energy is considered as a serious source of
energy for many years because of the vast amounts of energy that is made
freely available, if harnessed by modern technology.
It is renewable!

solar energy kidsThe technology used to convert the sun's power into
electricity does not produce smoke (carbon dioxide and other air pollutants).
Tapping the sun's energy does not usually destroy the environment.
Unfortunately, the sun does not available in the night, and in some days, clouds
and rains and other natural conditions prevent the sun's powerful rays to reach
us. This means that it is not always available. This a why we cannot rely on
solar energy alone.
8. Solar Panels
Solar panels do not generate electricity directly. Instead they heat up water
directly. A pump pushes cold water from a storage tank through pipes in the
solar panel. The water is heated by heat energy from the Sun and returns to the
tank. They are often located on the roofs of buildings where they can receive
the most sunlight.
