Are students addicted to their phones?

Most of the students nowadays are different, in fact very different. An example of this is students not participating in sports or other physical activity, students are also being lazy to do work and are more focused on fidgeting and playing on their phones. This is a problem because students are supposed to be the hope of the nation to make our world better. Now, if students don't stop being addicted to their phones, how else can they be the hope of the nation if they continued being focused on their phone. In conclusion, students addicted to phones are hazardous and harmful to society. If we don't act now, our society is in big trouble.

How electric cars work

How tesla cars work?

 Tesla is a big brand which makes powerful electric vehicles that were sold mostly in the U.S. with the founders Martin Eberhard, JB Straubel, Marc Tarpenning, Ian Wright and Elon Musk being the chief founder of Tesla inc.

They have a sell series of different cars like the model s, model x, model 3, roadster and the upcoming model y. But they didn't just stick on car production, in fact, they are trying to make houses solar powered which is why they sell solar panels that act as a roof.

In cars, you have to have accessories to right? which is why tesla sells its very own car accessories, they sell fast chargers attached to the home to rapidly charge your beloved car, they sell also cargo mats to add protection to your cargo space, as well weather mats and many more.

Now, how does the electric car work?

Firstly, the battery. Tesla uses a certain type of battery which is named Lithium-ion, they used this type of battery to make the car operate longer for a short charge time and they use this also because this has a high energy density to produce a large amount of voltage.

Secondly, it is paired with a motor which runs at the same time instead of lagging to give a more robust and powerful motor. (This powerful motor is paired with another powerful motor) depending on the model you get which ranges from 70 to 100/ P100d. D stands for dual, so whenever you see a tesla which has a D on its model it has a Dual motor, therefore fast acceleration.

Thirdly, these motors if are used wrong will drain a lot of energy from the battery, which is why tesla came up with a technology to use deceleration into power. This means whenever the car is decelerating, the brake force is collected and stored back into the battery to make the car run efficiently. Through software, tesla is able to have an option of power-saving which limits the car's performance to save power, which is in my opinion pretty clever of tesla.

In conclusion, I think Tesla cars are pretty smart and their cars are environmentally friendly to help take care of nature. 

The Power of One Essay

Last Term we've studied some film techniques and watched the movie The Power of One and write an essay about it, so here's my short writing about it.

The Power of One

During the harrowing time of apartheid, a lot of injustices were served to the black population of South Africa. In the film The Power of One, directed by John Avildsen, the scene where Sergeant Borman forces Geel Piet to eat donkey excrement paints a vivid picture of the ill-treatment towards black people. The following techniques are used in this scene: diegetic sound, camera angles and shots, and dialogue. These film techniques helped convey this important idea and caused the scene to have a strong impact on the audience. 

Firstly, John Avildsen makes a decision of putting a piece of background music on top of the foreground’s diegetic music as it uplifts the atmosphere in contrast with the scene. He did this to show how Black Africans are contented on what they have and be happy about it. This creates a very atmospheric scene and has a good balance that makes the film interesting.

Feedback to myself:

One thing that I am proud of in this essay is I started writing my essay even though I wasn't here most of the time.

Next time, I could work on this essay at home as well as using online tools like Grammarly and read-write to proofread my essay.

One thing that I enjoyed learning about the film was the different techniques because I didn't know that there are many more film techniques than I thought. What I found Challenging about learning this film is that as soon as we finished watching the film, we are asked to write an essay. One thing I learned that I will use the next time I write an essay is to know all the aspect of the task that you are writing about so that you'll know what to include onto your essay. What I am wondering about is how I could be more provident in composing my writing.
