With the price of a CFL light bulb being set at a higher price than a regular incandescent light bulb the long lasting and lower energy will pay for its self. With a average household spending around ninety dollars more in the switch to CFl light bulbs but would save between four hundred and forty dollars to one thousand and five hundred dollars over a five year life span of bulbs purchased. Not only does the compact fluorescent light bulb a huge money and power saver in our nation’s economy but it also produces less mercury than regular light bulbs that can possibly pollute the world’s air and water. With regular bulbs producing around 4mg of mercury CFL bulbs can possibly produce as little as 1mg’s of mercury. Many positives come out of these new hybrid bulbs but many issues that Americans may have is that these new bulbs may not always fit all light fixtures as of now with also adding that the bulbs get dimmer over their lifetime.
The price per foot of a basic six inch liner is 11 dollars. The warranty for this lining system is also lifetime, but with a few stipulations. Once installed, if the system is not serviced by a licensed chimney inspector once per year, you will immediately lose
Moore stated that this could continue another decade or two, but would eventually reach its limits at atomic levels of miniaturization.

Two back up printers $1000 VS 30 users X $120 for the price of each printer = $3600 30 users X $120 for the price of each printer = $3600 DIVIDED BY $500 printer = 7 printers can bought and still be less expensive than each user getting individual printers Exercise 2.2.2 If each of the 30 users in an organization prints an average of 22 pages per hour and a shared printer has the capacity to print 180 pages per hour, how many shared printers will be needed to prevent overloading each printer’s capacity? Would there be a benefit to having more that the exact number needed? Justify your answer If 30 users averaged 22 pages per hour than that would be 660 pages an hour So if 1 printer can only print out 180 pages per hour you would need 4 printers to share the load. 4 printers averaging 180 pages per hour = 720 pages per hour. Also if having more that the exact number needed will help because you can average even higher pages per minute increasing production.
Some cars (about half) have oxidized paint (no shine) at the time wax is to be applied, requiring cleaning with an oxidation cleaner before one can apply regular car wax. Oxidation cleaner costs $2.50 per bottle (good for one application) and can be applied in about the same time required to apply either an oxidation cleaner or regular wax, about two hours. An additional advantage of Miracle Shield, however, is that it both removes the oxidation and shines the car's surface in one step. Consequently, Miracle Shield can be applied directly to a car's surface that is already highly oxidized. Making any reasonable assumptions that you need to make, estimate the economic value of Miracle Shield.
,Sarah L. G January 6, 2013 Written Assignment #1 1. A) $1,000 with 5% interest after 10 years gives you $1,628. Therefore, you would gain $628 in interest. B) If the interest is withdrawn each year, a total of $500 would be earned because the $1,000 investment would earn $50 of simple interest each year. C) The answers are different because if the interest is left untouched, it makes the principal amount higher each year, giving more money after 10 years.
The inclusion of nuclear power within Australia could reduce power prices by 20% and save $150 billion from now until 2050 in greenhouse gas abatement costs. The modern reactors cost about $3 billion. When I say we need to go nuclear power, Australia doesn’t necessarily have to rely on Nuclear power as the only source, but could they go a mix of renewable energy and nuclear energy. Australia is home to many large industries and renewable energy its self would not be strong enough to power them. Nuclear power itself is very simular to renewable energy and emits close to no green house gasses.
There is a huge possibility that an individual that has decided to use e-cigarettes could save close to $2,000 a year however this would depend on the amount of e liquid, batteries and accessories that are purchased through out the year. For example, one may purchase a complete kit which can cost close to $20.00 and the only thing left to buy would be the e-juice. However, the e-juice can be as low as $3.99 all the way up to $30.00 this would be a personal preference and would depend on what the individual is looking
Fifty billion dollars is a lot of money when it comes to our economy now days. ANWR has enough oil, in fact nine to sixteen billion gallons, producing 1.1 million barrels a day for the next 25 years (NPR). Producing that amount of oil, and keeping all the spending money in side of the united states, and receiving money from people who might purchase our oil, would lead the economy to take a step forward, instead of staying in the same spot. Drilling in America would also lower the oil prices, which seams obvious. If we drill here, as I have stated, we spend less money; by spending less money, we can keep more money here from taxes and shipping costs, lowering the prices at the pumps, because the oil companies will not be getting taxed as much, leaving them room to drop the prices.
This makes them both cheaper and less environmentally damaging than Britain. In addition to this, the UK has stopped the building of many coal burning power stations with over 25 power plants being decommissioned over the last 40 years. Although Britain may be importing more coal now than they were in the 1970s, their coal consumption has decreased by around 25 mtoes. Although the UK’s coal consumption has decreased, the UK’s overall energy mix hasn’t fallen. This is mainly due to the great influx in natural gas usage in the last 40 years as a result of the 0.53 trillion m3 of natural gas the UK.
