Transcript: Example 1: Example 2: Arta pushes a ball 5 meters in one second across a flat ground with 200 Newtons of force. The ground is a frictionless surface. What is the power of the ball? Work: "Power is the work done divided by the time elapsed" (Eisenkraft, 411). By Arta Holaj, Nick Hui, and Olivia Spring Nick is rock climbing vertically 5 meters. This takes him 30 minutes. At home, Olivia is changing a lightbulb. She climbs up a 5 meter latter to do so. This takes her 3 minutes (Henderson). Who generates more power? Power Presentation Work is "the change caused by a force applied to an object over some amount of distance" (Hewitt). Units are in Joules (J) (Henderson). Equations: Power is measured in watts (W). One watt is equal to one Joule per second. 1 Horsepower = 750 watts (Henderson) (Henderson) Works Cited: Power: Eisenkraft, A. (2010). Work and Power: Getting to the Top.

Transcript: Power throughout History By: Kennedy Rhodes Topic 1 Power has been a very important thing throughout history and continues to be highly important today. It can define how we live our lives and even where we live out our lives. From great rulers and Kings of England to Presidents in America, how did the reign of power change during the colonization of America? Intro Title The Spanish were the first people to arrive in America. Christopher Columbus helped the spanish start colonizing by finding America. The colonization lasted from 1492-1763. By the time it ended, four major groups had colonized around America; Dutch, French, Spanish, and New England. Little did they know that there were already a few natives living on the land which later caused a lot of trouble. So how, what, and who did power affect these four colonies? Brief Explanation of the colonization of America. Between 1000 and 1650, a bunch of trade routes were created and used in Europe. This created/influenced curiosity in people and led to more exploration/settlements in America. That's not the only thin, though. There were many other reasons why colonists wanted to go to America. Land=power. Or to have more religious freedom and to spread their beliefs. How did exploration spread in America? Title Topic 2 The spanish were the first among the four countries to arrive in America and possibly the most successful/powerful. -Most land - Enslaved Natives then replaced them with Africans -Very forceful and unappreciative of the Natives. Spanish Title ... Topic 3 French had the second most land next to the Spanish. This gave them power over the other couple of colonies. The French had a better relationship with the Natives and even helped them during the fur trade to teach them how to hunt and where to find the animals. This led to the french often coming to America every Spring and Summer then returning to France with their gathered resources. Then going back to America the following Spring/Summer to give the Natives European resources such as horses, metal pans, and weapons. French Title During the mid 1700's, the Natives were having conflicts with the English during some of the English's settlements. Because of France's good history with the Natives, the French were very supportive of the Natives through these conflict and Eventually fought alongside them as Allies during the French and Indian war. But eventually, Britain beat them under the lead of General James Wolfe. Allies Topic 4 Great Britain didn't have that much land as France and the Spanish did. But what they did have were strong rulers and good fighters. As I mentioned in the previous slide, Britain defeated both the French and the Natives in the French and Indian war. (forces led by General James Wolfe.) The Britain weren't nearly as benevolent or amiable as the french were towards the Natives. (Hence the war) Great Britain/English Title For the most part, all of the major European countries were involved in slave trading. Around 12-15 million Africans were forced into migration. All though all of the European powers were involved in this, Britain seemed to be the most powerful by being responsible for taking 2-3 million of those slaves. The enslaved Africans were sent to most of the colonies in South and Central America and the Caribbean. (Also into what became the USA.) Britain and slavery Topic 5 The Dutch were probably the least powerful. Most of the land they had would be taken over by other countries and they didn't really give up a fight. Dutch Title The Natives and the Dutch started off with a pretty good relationship but eventually their relationship started to strain. The first Dutch colonization was made to mainly be a trading post. Dutch relationship with Natives

Power Presentation

Transcript: Wendy Nguyen, 9ENG1 Power the ability or capacity to do something or act in a particular way. Power is highlighted in Tomorrow When the War began and Lord of the Flies. Power is conveyed through brute force, the evolution of characters and fear. Lord of the Flies Power through brute force Power through evolution of characters Tomorrow When the War Began The slow motion effect when Robyn shoots at the soldiers shows that she has broken away from her values and religious beliefs of not harming people. She chose to save her friends by killing strangers, something that had refused to do up until that very moment. At the end of the movie, a long shot is used when the group of teenagers are all lined up. It gradually pans out so you focus on the characters and realize that they are now proper soldiers with their dark costumes. The clothing of the characters at the end are now dark, just their expressions. This shows that they are no longer the cheerful and chirpy characters at the start but are now a dangerous force that should not be reckoned with. Ralph is the athletic and charismatic leader in Lord of the Flies. Ralph is the character that represents order, civilization and productive leadership. While most of the boys think about playing on the isolated island, Ralph is one of the few that actually think about building huts and ways of being rescued. Later on as the rest of the group gradually succumbs to savage instincts and this causes Ralph’s power to decline and Jack’s to rise. Jack’s character is based around the instinct of savagery, violence and desire for power. At the start you are able to see that Jack is furious about losing the leadership role to Ralph. He instantly feels that he needs to be the one in charge as he was the head of the choir boys at school. The first time Jack encounters a pig, he is unable to kill it. This leads to Jack becoming obsessed with hunting and gradually builds him into a barbarian like person. The more savage Jack becomes, the more he is able to control the rest of his group with blood lust. Lord of the Flies Power through fear The bright yellow lighting on Kevin’s face makes us easier to see how afraid Kevin is. This causes him to leave Corrie and Ellie alone. Power is given to the invading forces in this case as they are the ones that are responsible for the fear. “I suppose when the time comes I’ll do what I have to do. What worries me though is that I can’t guarantee that I won’t pack up under pressure. I’m so scared and I think that I might stand there and scream”. This is stated by Fi who understands that even though she is willing to fight, she is still afraid of what would happen. Her tone of voice is very soft and starts to break, telling us that she is afraid of dying but is still willing to fight. This gives her a slight power as it persuades the group the fight, including Kevin. Power presentation In conclusion, Tomorrow When the War Began and Lord of the Flies both present insight into power. This is shown through brute force, evolution of characters and fear. To sum up, a display of power is evident through these ways in Tomorrow When the War Began and Lord of the Flies. Tomorrow When the War Began “Ralph’s right of course. There isn’t a snake-thing. But if there was a snake we’d hunt it and kill it. We’re going to hunt pigs to get meat for everybody. And we’ll look for the snake too-“. This is stated by Jack who uses persuasion to make sure the boys aren’t afraid. This “beast” figure eventually becomes reason for Jack’s power as he promises the children that he will hunt down the beast and kill it, giving the boys a false sense of protection. Conclusion Texts chosen Tomorrow When the War Began shows power through brute force through the use of props and fast editing cuts. The gun is used to shoot an angry civilian, to show authority and make sure that their power is displayed. Fast editing cuts are used to create a sense of panic while Ellie, Corrie and Kevin are being shot at. Lord of the Flies displays power through brute force through the use of imagery. “Ralph twisted sideways on top of a writhing body and felt hot breath on his cheek. He began to pound the mouth below him, using his clenched fist as a hammer, he hit more and more passionate as the face became slippery.” This lets us create a scene where Ralph is beating up the person below him to the point where their face is slippery with blood. "The point tore the skin and flesh over Ralph’s ribs, then sheared off and fell in the water”. Imagery has been used to let us see that in the fight, the other individual has the upper hand on Ralph.
