Feasibility Of Predominant Wind And Solar Energy Over The 48 United States
It is widely believed that wind and solar power are too variable in time to supply a large percentage of energy needs. This perception is based on wind and solar energy production over small domains, but is it true for a large domain? A study was conducted to determine the resource availability of wind and solar energy over the 48 US states. A meteorological assimilation model was used to estimate hourly wind and solar resources for three years – 2006 through 2008. Geographic data were used to

Differential Equations - Problem 2 of 3
This video is a continuation of differential equations and demonstrates how to solve a more challenging differential equation problem. The example provided is a second order differential equation with two initial conditions. (4:43)
Position, Velocity, and Acceleration
This video explains how differential equations can be used to show the relationships between position, velocity, and acceleration. If position is given by a function p(x), then the velocity is the first derivative of that function, and the acceleration is the second derivative. By using differential equations with either velocity or acceleration, it is possible to find position and velocity functions from a known acceleration. (2:07)
Kepler's Laws I, II, and III
This resource offers four videos that explain Kepler's three laws of planetary motion. A brief introduction provides biographical information on Kepler. Links to a glossary are embedded in the text, and written descriptions of what is occurring in the videos are provided.
Particle Detection Activity
This interactive museum demonstration explains how the Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) spacecraft uses its particle detectors to collect and sort particles that come from the boundary of the Solar System. This demonstration supports a full-length planetarium show about the IBEX mission and the boundary of the Solar System. Each short activity/product helps to build awareness and engagement in the science and engineering aspects of the mission that is reinforced as visitors choose to partic
21L.701 Literary Interpretation: Interpreting Poetry (MIT)
This seminar offers a course of readings in lyric poetry. It aims to enhance the student's capacity to understand the nature of poetic language and the enjoyment of poetic texts by treating poems as messages to be deciphered.
The seminar will briefly touch upon the history of theories of figurative language since Aristotle and it will attend to the development of those theories during the last thirty years, noting the manner in which they tended to consider figures of speech distinct from n
