Nuclear energy is EXTREMELY ecofriendly, punching down any fossil fuels and even wind energy. It also is reliable, and has low emissions. However, nuclear energy is somewhat expensive and can go wrong, being dangerous to the environment and people. Along with this, uranium is finite and radioactive waste disposal is really bad.

I believe that solar energy would be the best energy for my town.  Solar energy is advantageous because the sun is up every day, and because it takes up much less space than than some other sources of renewable energy.  Some disadvantages of solar energy are that if there is cloud cover, hardly any energy will be gained at all.  Another disadvantage is that it is a long term investment that can take a while for it to pay for itself.

Directions: Read the following excerpts carefully, then identify whether they employ informative, persuasive, or argumentative w
Savatey [412]

Hi there!

Informative writing has the intent to inform or educate us on a particular topic or event. It gives us more information and insight onto something.

Persuasive writing has the intent of convincing us to believe in a certain idea or to perform a certain action. For instance, advertisements have a persuasive intent; they are persuading us to buy a product or service.

Argumentative writing is similar to persuasive writing in the sense that they are persuading us to believe a certain idea. However, they are often based on logic and fact rather than opinions.

Let's look at the first excerpt.

<em>This morning at 9 a.m., a school bus collided with a car at the intersection of Osmena and Cabrera streets. The passengers were not injured, but the medical personnel checked each student as well as the driver before they were transported to their school.</em>

This text doesn't try to convince us in believing something. It doesn't argue anything and it only tries to give us more insight onto the event, which is a car accident. No opinions are stated and only events are given.

Therefore, this excerpt uses an informative writing technique.

A homeowner uses a snowblower to clear his driveway. knowing that the snow is discharged at an average angle of 40° with the hor
Nesterboy [21]

given that snow is projected at an angle of 40 degree

It range is given as a = 19 ft

a = 19 * 0.3048 = 5.8 m

now we can use the formula of horizontal range

R = \frac{v_o^2 sin2\theta}{g}

5.8 =\frac{ v_o^2 sin(2*40)}{9.8}

5.8 = \frac{v_o^2 * sin80}{9.8}

v_o^2 = 57.7

v_o = 7.6 m/s

<u>so its initial speed must be 7.6 m/s</u>
