What are the benefits of installing landscape lighting?

Installing landscape lighting can benefit you as a homeowner in three ways. First, it an increase the value and appearance of your home. Second, it can increase the safety of your property. Lastly, this lighting can deter crime. You may choose to add an outdoor wall sconce to make the porch or patio more inviting. This increases the attractiveness of your property. Well-placed lighting for water features in your garden and decorative path lights leading to your garage increase the value of your home. When you choose to light your garden, walkway or garage area you allow others to see obstacles such as a stray garden hose or a steep staircase. This prevents neighbors and other visitors from tripping and falling on your property. Motion sensor landscape lights and other less obtrusive landscape lighting fixtures make it difficult for intruders to approach your home unseen by neighbors or law enforcement. Make your home difficult for burglars to enter unseen with proper landscape lighting.


Why does burning 1 kg of gasoline produce more than 3kg of carbon dioxide?

1000g C8H18 (octane - approximately gasoline) =114 Mwt +12.5 O2 = 32 Mwt ----> 8 CO2 = 44 Mwt + 9H2O 1000/114 = 8.772 moles gasoline produces 8x 8.772 = 70.175 moles CO2 = 70.175 X 44 = 3088 g CO2 or 3.088 kg. The reason burning 1kg of Octane produces so much CO2 is that the unseen reactant is oxygen 8.772 x 12.5 = 109.65 moles of it or 3509g of it. Steam or water vapor is the other product.

How do scientists get information about the interior of the earth?

Knowledge of the Earth's interior is based on the reactions of seismic waves from earthquakes to the density and state of materials that they encounter. Seismic waves travel at differing speeds through different materials (and also, at different speeds through material of different states, i.e., liquid or solid). Because we know the size of the Earth, by measuring how long it takes to pick up on seismic activity on opposite sides of the Earth, we can gauge about how much of the Earth is solid, liquid, made of a certain material, etc. Some of it, also, is based on our current understanding of how the Earth formed - mainly, that as our planet formed and cooled, the heavier materials such as metal sunk to the center. Rock that is torn off and expelled by volcanism is studied as another indicator of what lies below the surface. Another clue lies in meteorites that have landed on Earth known as Chondrites. These can indicate the material from which planets are formed. The study of Earth's magnetic field and gravitational properties also indicate or strongly infer what lies deep in Earth's interior. Knowledge of the shallower (but otherwise difficult to access) oceanic crust and mantle has been gained due to a process known as obduction where oceanic crust is forced over continental crust. These rocks are known as Ophiolites and give Geologists direct access to the rocks in question.
