4L: Summer Assignment
Essay on Electromagnetic waves
In class we studied the properties of waves. During the summer study Electromagnetic Waves on NASA website Then write an essay of about 400 words whose title is:
‘Using the electromagnetic spectrum to solve a local or global issue’
using the information from the above website AND from other websites (http://www.bbc.co.uk/education/topics/zscrd2p/resources/1, http://hyperphysics.phy-astr.gsu.edu/hbase/ems1.html, http://imagine.gsfc.nasa.gov/science/toolbox/emspectrum1.html)
The essay will include:
1) The introduction (you should state the global or local issue and write a brief introduction to the solution of this issue.
2) The body of the essay (that should explain:
• The science behind the solution (i.e. what are electromagnetic waves? how can a wave be produced and used to solve a problem?)
• The benefits and limitations of the scientific application in dealing with this problem
• The implications of the chosen scientific solution to the issue, keeping into account one factor among environmental, political, social or economic factors.)
3) The conclusion

3L Summer Assignment
Prepare a poster on a source of energy and its pros and cons.
Go to:
http://energyquest.ca.gov/story/index.html
and get introduced to the topic by reading the introduction and the source of energy you want to focus on (one chapter chosen among 8-16)
Find other sources on the topic and prepare a poster using
http://edu.glogster.com/?ref=com
(it is a very easy tool, but, if you prefer, you can alternatively write an essay with the same information)
with the following information:
- Energy source - renewable/not renewable
- How it is used (description of the application)
- Pros and cons (implications of using the source you chose)
