Communication
Name the two most basic elements of communication.
Sender and reciever.
The arts, beliefs, customs, institutions, and other products of human work and thought considered as a unit, especially with regard to a particular time or social group
What is e-fuel?
Electrofuels, also known as e-fuels, are a class of synthetic fuels which function as drop-in replacement fuels for internal combustion engines. They are manufactured using captured carbon dioxide or carbon monoxide, together with hydrogen obtained from water split.
True
What is nanotechnology?
Nanotechnology is the manipulation of matter with at least one dimension sized from 1 to 100 nanometers. At this scale, commonly known as the nanoscale, surface area and quantum mechanical effects become important in describing properties of matter.
Name one of the communication models we discussed last year.
language, what is the norm/accepted, manners, etc.
Name two reasons why e-fuel is an attractive alternative.
Reduces greenhouse gases, easier to transport, more sustainable....
What kind of atoms make up solid metal?
Neutral
Name an industry/product that uses nanotechnology.
mobile phones, cars, glasses, etc.
Good communication requires the receiver to actively
listen
What are two characteristics of a high context culture?
Focus on body language, group is more important than the individual, etc.
Name two reasons why e-fuel is not an attractive alternative.
Not enough, costly, etc.
What is a cathode?
A cathode is the electrode from which a conventional current leaves a polarized electrical device
What are some drawbacks of using nano-technology?
Its effects on the human body is still unknown.
Some examples of noise in communication can be....
physical/mental examples
What are two characteristics of a low context culture?
Individualism is valued over the group, more direct when communicating verbally
Name an industry that is considering using e-fuel.
Aviation, cars
Galvanic cells are also called
voltaic cells
True or false: Norway uses pressure-retarded osmosis to generate electricity.
True
Name three examples of communication styles.
Direct, circular, indirect, person-centered, idea-focused.
Is Norway considered high or low context?
Low
What is the process of creating e-fuel called?
power to liquid
What happens in an oxidation reduction reaction?
An oxidation-reduction (redox) reaction is a type of chemical reaction that involves a transfer of electrons between two species. An oxidation-reduction reaction is any chemical reaction in which the oxidation number of a molecule, atom, or ion changes by gaining or losing an electron. Redox reactions are common and vital to some of the basic functions of life, including photosynthesis, respiration, combustion, and corrosion or rusting.
Why is nanotechnology possibly beneficial for the solar power industry?
improve efficiency while also reducing associated manufacturing and installation costs.
