Energy Sources and Alternative Energy
Read Lab 4: Energy Sources and Alternative Energy. This lab will allow you to investigate the effects of acid mine drainage through experimentation. Additionally, it will allow for the exploration of solar energy through the use of a solar cell motor. Then, utilize this information and your eScience lab kit to complete Experiments 1 and 2 on the Lab 4 Reporting Form, completing all tables as you proceed. Make sure that all of the following items are completed before submission:
a. Read through intro material and record your hypothesis for ï¿½Experiment 1: The Effects of Coal Miningï¿½ on the Lab 4 Reporting Form.
b. Perform ï¿½Experiment 1: The Effects of Coal Miningï¿½ using your eScience lab manual and kit. Answer post lab questions 1 through 5 on the Lab 4 Reporting Form.
c. Record your hypothesis for ï¿½Experiment 2: Solar Energyï¿½ on the Lab 4 Reporting Form.
d. Complete ï¿½Experiment 2: Solar Energyï¿½ using your eScience lab manual and kit. Answer post lab questions 1 through 6 on the Lab 4 Reporting Form.
All post lab questions for ï¿½Lab 4: Energy Sources and Alternative Energyï¿½ should be completed on the Lab 4 Reporting Form. Save your completed Lab 4 Reporting Form as a Word document. The document must be formatted according to APA style, including a title page and references page. For information regarding APA samples and tutorials, visit the Ashford Writing Center, located within the Learning Resources tab on the left navigation toolbar, in your online course. Submit the document via the Assignment Basket in your online course. Carefully review the Grading Rubric (available for download in your online course) before beginning the lab and note the criteria that will be used to evaluate your assignment.
