Physics And The Laws Of Thermodynamics Assignments
UNIT V JOURNAL
Instructions
Several organizations publish occupational exposure limits (OELs) including the Occupational Safety and Health Administration’s (OSHA) permissible exposure limits (PELs), the American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists’ (ACGIH) threshold limit values (TLVs), and the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health’s (NIOSH) recommended exposure limits (RELs). Only OSHA’s PELs are legally enforceable.
Review each type of OEL, and reflect on the pros and cons of each. Which type of OEL do you believe would be the most protective for workers? Explain why.
Review The Disciplines Above And Thoroughly Describe As Many Connections You Can Find Between The Material From Environmental Science And At Least Two Of The Other Disciplines Of Your Choice.
In this course, students are being asked to learn about some basic chemistry, physics and the laws of thermodynamics. Environmental Science is a multi-disciplinary field of study. There are over-lapping concepts with the fields of anthropology, archeology, sociology, psychology and economics. Even in the Arts there are visual artists, writers and musicians, who convey aspects of the natural world in their art. The examples are a poem about a whale that is endangered or a song about an ancient tree.
For this Discussion Board Main Post, review the disciplines above and thoroughly describe as many connections you can find between the material from environmental science and at least two of the other disciplines of your choice. One of the connections should relate in some way to one or more of the Principles of Sustainability addressed in Module 1. Another connection should relate to one of the major Environmental Problems addressed in Module 1.
Population growth (i.e. Humans) is a topic in a future module. Probably a universal cause among authors of environmental textbooks. Please review the Figure 1-16 on page 17 of the textbook.
Wasteful and unsustainable resource use. Look no further than your vehicles’ gas tank or hot water heater using electricity from coal power generation.
Poverty (again human). If you are hungry and concerned about where your next meal is coming from, then you will not be concerned about what must be done to conserve an endangered species.
Failure to include the harmful environmental costs of goods and services in their market price. The consumerism and economics in this course have a direct effect on environmental sustainability. In business (capitalism) a companies’ goal is to maximize profits. If the costs, including environmental costs, exceed the revenue or income, then you may not want to attend the next stockholders’ meeting if you are a corporate officer. If you are a consumer, then what should you expect to have happen? Hint, do you remember the $1.00 tire disposal fee at the tire shop? Where do you think government subsidies for growing corn to produce ethanol fit in the discussion?
Increasing isolation from nature. Ask a city dwelling child where his milk comes from and you can guess the answer. Many humans do not understand the relationship between wastes and pollutants that they produce. Very few know where they end up in the environment let alone understand the Law of Conservation of Energy, which simply states that no energy is created or destroyed. Module 2 will briefly address this topic and the principal of recycling of wastes that sustains life on earth and which falls under one of the principals of sustainability. It is imperative that people are educated to understand how dependent we are on the earth’s natural systems and natural capital. (Miller & Spoolman, 2015, p. 16)
As with any problem, there is a desire to solve it. The first action is to find the root cause and define it. In terms of what causes environmental problems, it could be summed up in the phrase from the comic strip POGO, by Walt Kelly, “we have met the enemy and he is us”.
The Scientific Principles of Sustainability are:
Dependence on Solar Energy
Biodiversity
Chemical Cycling or Nutrient Cycling

Content (worth a maximum of 50% of the total points) |
Zero points: Student failed to submit the final paper. |
20 points out of 50: The essay illustrates poor understanding of the relevant material by failing to address or incorrectly addressing the relevant content; failing to identify or inaccurately explaining/defining key concepts/ideas; ignoring or incorrectly explaining key points/claims and the reasoning behind them; and/or incorrectly or inappropriately using terminology; and elements of the response are lacking. |
30 points out of 50: The essay illustrates a rudimentary understanding of the relevant material by mentioning but not full explaining the relevant content; identifying some of the key concepts/ideas though failing to fully or accurately explain many of them; using terminology, though sometimes inaccurately or inappropriately; and/or incorporating some key claims/points but failing to explain the reasoning behind them or doing so inaccurately. Elements of the required response may also be lacking. |
40 points out of 50: The essay illustrates solid understanding of the relevant material by correctly addressing most of the relevant content; identifying and explaining most of the key concepts/ideas; using correct terminology; explaining the reasoning behind most of the key points/claims; and/or where necessary or useful, substantiating some points with accurate examples. The answer is complete. |
50 points: The essay illustrates exemplary understanding of the relevant material by thoroughly and correctly addressing the relevant content; identifying and explaining all of the key concepts/ideas; using correct terminology explaining the reasoning behind key points/claims and substantiating, as necessary/useful, points with several accurate and illuminating examples. No aspects of the required answer are missing. |
Use of Sources (worth a maximum of 20% of the total points). |
Zero points: Student failed to include citations and/or references. Or the student failed to submit a final paper. |

Zero points: Student failed to submit the final paper. |
3 points out of 10: Student needs to develop better formatting skills. The paper omits significant structural elements required for and APA 6th edition paper. Formatting of the paper has major flaws. The paper does not conform to APA 6th edition requirements whatsoever. |
5 points out of 10: Appearance of final paper demonstrates the student’s limited ability to format the paper. There are significant errors in formatting and/or the total omission of major components of an APA 6th edition paper. They can include the omission of the cover page, abstract, and page numbers. Additionally the page has major formatting issues with spacing or paragraph formation. Font size might not conform to size requirements. The student also significantly writes too large or too short of and paper |

This can include small errors or omissions with the cover page, abstract, page number, and headers. There could be also slight formatting issues with the document spacing or the font Additionally the paper might slightly exceed or undershoot the specific number of required written pages for the assignment. |
10 points: Student provides a high-caliber, formatted paper. This includes an APA 6th edition cover page, abstract, page number, headers and is double spaced in 12’ Times Roman Font. Additionally, the paper conforms to the specific number of required written pages and neither goes over or under the specified length of the paper. |
