The Horse 2023

Concept: 

- Team: Alicia, Leonie, Luana

- Research question: How much plastic waste do we produce (until bottle is filled)?

We have to look up where and how we can donate these bottles to factories/if they need it.

Is it even possible to give them away in Switzerland?

- Our answer (Project description, methods/techniques):

 We start putting our plastic waste in a plastic botte to see how long it takes to fill it up and how much waste we produce, take a picture every day of bottle and plastic piece that goes in the bottle.

We estimate the duration of the filling process up to 2 weeks.

Rules: cut up big plastic pieces so that it fits, use evian 75cl bottle

-->if the small botte fills up too fast we try to redo the project with a bigger bottle

- Material & difficulties:

1 Evian 75cl bottle, plastic waste we produce ourselves

Difficulties may be the bigger plastic pieces that don't fit or hard plastic that can hardly be cut smaller. 

-goal/result: Find out how long/how much plastic it takes to fill up such a bottle, measure how much waste there is in a period of time.

Research question: How much plastic waste do we produce (until bottle is filled)?

We have to look up where and how we can donate these bottles to factories and find out if they need it. Is it even possible to give them away in Switzerland?

Our answer: in progress

Description/methods/techniques:

We start putting our plastic waste in a plastic bottle to see how long it takes to fill it up and how much waste we produce, take a picture of the bottle every day.

We estimate the duration of the filling process to take up to 2 weeks.

Rules: cut up big plastic pieces so they fit, use Evian 75cl bottle

Material & difficulties: 1 evian 75cl bottle, plastic waste we produce ourselves, keep used plastic throughout the day, bigger plastic pieces, hard plastic (difficult to cut up)

Experts comment: not available yet

Goal/Result: find out how long and how much plastic it takes to fill up such a bottle, measure how much waste there is in a short period of time

Answer by ChatGPT:

1. Wind Turbine: A device that converts the kinetic energy of wind into electrical energy.

2. Wind Farm: A collection of multiple wind turbines that are connected to a power grid.

3. Blade: The rotating part of a wind turbine that captures the kinetic energy of the wind.

4. Rotor: The rotating system of a wind turbine that includes the blades and the hub.

5. Hub: The center part of a wind turbine rotor where the blades are attached.

6. Nacelle: The housing that contains the generator, gearbox, and other components of a wind turbine.

7. Generator: The component that converts the kinetic energy of the rotor into electrical energy.

8. Wind Speed: The velocity of the wind that impacts the rotor blades of a wind turbine.

9. Wind Direction: The direction from which the wind is blowing.

10. Power Output: The amount of electrical energy generated by a wind turbine, typically measured in kilowatts (kW) or megawatts (MW).
