* A 'nuclear weapon' weapon that suddenly releases the energy in the nucleus of certain types of atoms. When triggered, these devices release a huge amount of energy in the form of an explosion. Nuclear weapons are very powerful, and one nuclear weapon can destroy a city. They get their energy by changing some of their matter into energy. This is called a nuclear explosion. Nuclear explosions are difficult to ignite and control, and require uranium or plutonium that has been enriched for reactive isotopes. These isotopes are not concentrated enough in natural uranium to cause explosions.
* are made from the elements uranium or plutonium. Certain forms of these elements can be made to undergo nuclear fission and have a nuclear chain reaction. This produces a very large amount of energy and radiation, and will kill any people or animals within several kilometers. Much of the radiation is X-rays, which heats air to produce a huge nuclear fireball. The rapid expansion of the fireball produces a dangerous shock wave that destroys houses or buildings even several kilometers away.

+ Lightbulb, Cautions: Light sources :: Machines :: Home appliances
* Most light bulbs fit into a socket. If the socket is turned on, there is electricity there, even if the bulb is out, so there is danger of electric shock. Most bulbs get very hot when they are turned on, and take some time to cool off. Most light bulbs are made of glass, which means that they can break easily. Fluorescent bulbs contain a small amount of mercury, if they break, be careful to not breathe the mercury vapor. With incandescent light bulbs, the filament will eventually break, and the bulb will need to be replaced.

This makes the problem worse, so computer recycling happens a lot. Many projects try to send working computers to developing nations so they can be re-used and will not become waste as quickly, as most people do not need to run new programs. Some computer parts, such as hard drives, can break easily. When these parts end up in the landfill, they can put poisonous chemicals like lead into the ground water
- Main hardware
+ Digital media: Media
+ Division by two, Binary, Computers
* Computers use the binary number system to store information. Information is broken up into tiny pieces called 'bits'. Each bit is either a 0 or a 1. Replacing regular division with bit shifts is a way to do program optimization.
+ Internet Protocol, IP address: Internet protocols
* Some computers have the same IP address for a very long time. Some computers change their IP from time to time.
* This would pick up shows from broadcast television stations. A TV station could be many miles away, and still be picked up. TVs can also show movies from VCD and DVD players or VCRs. Cable TV and Satellite television can provide more programs at once than broadcast can. Video game consoles connect to most modern TVs. Some computers can also use a TV as a monitor.
+ Random, Making random numbers: Mathematics :: Cryptography
* Computers can make what appear to be random numbers. There are two ways to make them.
+ Telephone, Types of telephones
* Computers can use a machine called a modem to talk to other computers over a telephone line. This allows a computer to connect to other computer networks including the Internet.
+ Typesetting, Digital era: Typography :: Typesetting
* Computers excel at automatically typesetting documents.
+ USB flash drive, Good points and bad points, Pros: Storage devices
* Most modern operating systems can use a flash drive, without the need to install special software. To most operating systems, the flash drive looks like a hard drive. The operating system can use any file system. Some computers can start from a flash drive.
+ Video camera, Uses: Cameras :: Electronics :: Data input
* Special uses of video cameras include systems that capture images at the finish line to time races and sporting events. Some toll roads use video cameras to make pictures of the license plate of any car that fails to pay tolls. Computers then identify the drivers and mail enforcement letters to collect the missed tolls
* Many computers have a basic video and graphics capabilities built-in to the computer's motherboard. They are fast enough for basic computer use and even some basic computer games. If a computer user wants faster and more detailed graphics, a video card can be installed
+ Virtual memory
* Computers run software. This software will need computer memory to run, and do what it needs to do. Most computers in use today can do more than one thing at a time, they run more than one application. This is known as multiprocessing. | {

+ Magnetism, Magnets
* Magnetic attraction is when magnets are put near to magnetic objects, the magnet will attract the magnetic object and pull it towards the magnet until it is as near as it can get or touching it. Magnets can also repel other magnets. Most objects that are attracted to magnets have iron in them. Most other metals, such as aluminium, are not attracted to magnets.
+ Magnetism, Magnets, Magnetic Poles
* The ends of a magnet are called magnetic 'poles'. This is the part of magnets that attract magnetic things the most. All magnets have what is called a magnetic north pole and what is called a magnetic south pole. If a piece of string is tied to the middle of the magnet and the string is held so that the magnet is allowed to hang down on its own, then the north pole of the magnet will turn and point to the Earth's North Magnetic Pole. This can be tested by tying a string to a magnet shaped like a straight stick, and then holding the string so that the magnet can turn up and down and around
- Uses of Magnets
* A 'magnet' is a very special metal. Also, if the two poles are the same, the two magnets will push away, or 'repel', from each other. This is called 'magnetism'. Magnets can make some other metals into magnets when they are rubbed together. Permanent magnets occur naturally in some rocks, particularly lodestone, but are now more commonly manufactured. A magnet's magnetism decreases when it is heated and increases when it is cooled. It has to be heated at around 1000 degrees Celsius | {

+ Magnetism, Electromagnets and Electromagnetism
* Electromagnets are another kind of magnet. They only work when electricity is running through them. An electric current makes a magnetic field. If you wrap the wire into a coil, the electrons spin around the coil and make a stronger magnetic domain.
* They are magnets that are only magnetic when there is a coil of wire with electricity running through it. This is called a solenoid. The strength of the magnet is proportional to the current flowing in the circuit. The electricity running through the wire is called a current. The current is the flow of electrons, which are negatively charged particles. Electromagnets are used for a variety of purposes. In a simple example, an electromagnet can pick up pieces of iron, nickel, and cobalt.
* Electromagnets are used in everyday items such as burglar alarms, electric relays and fire bells. Their ability to change from the state of non-magnetic to magnetic just by passing an electric current through it allows it to be used in many different items.
