-electricity and its effects on humans and environment

-electrocution

wikipedia.org

 

most of the stuff you need will be there. If its for a test, your textbook would probably ocntain some good info.

Wikipedia is often a surprise considering what´s in there and what´s not. One day you might find a small note about exotic physics like the susy partner of the graviton, the next day you aren´t able to find any information about some basic term of mainstream physics (can´t remember what it was, something spinor-related, I think). The next day you find a very detailed and very good article about a german terrorist group. Always good for a nice surprise but nothing to rely on.

 

Sorry, I don´t know any good resources for electricity. You did try a google search, did you?

basic stuff they're good at though, like electricity, the articles on the various kinds of power plants are very good. (speaking mostly of the articles related to nuclear power)

-electrocution

-electrical effects on humans

-electromagnetic effects on humans

-electrical radiation and its effects on humans

 

basically we gota research and write up why we believe that there are more benefits to electricity in the world than the downsides to it (those that we have to research above)

 

are there any good websites comparing the advantages and disadvantages of such things?

[CPL.Luke]

two or three of those things don't effect humans

 

anyway the wikipedia articles on them should be good enough for you, if you need more information I would suggest google as these are rather specific information requests
