the amount of energy consumed by electronic appliances while they are switched off or in a standby mode - a phenomena known as Vampire Load. Vika used a watt analyzer to assess the wasted energy and resulting cost to the consumer found in various electronic devices and revealed that flat screen televisions were the biggest offenders, costing consumers on average between $35 and $55 per year in energy costs.
Second place winner Thomas Duke measured the effect of extreme temperatures on tennis ball performance, measuring both kinetic and potential energy against the variables of hot and cold temperatures.
Third place winner Pranav Konuru studied light intensities among incandescent and fluorescent light bulbs. By utilizing a photoresistor, Pranav measured the distance light was cast by both and found fluorescent lights produce the most light. Last year, more than 90 percent of New Vistas students attending the Arizona Science and Engineering Fair received awards.
New Vistas Center for Education, founded in 1979, is celebrating its 32nd anniversary. Named a Top Ten School by Johns Hopkins University CTY, New Vistas is a private preschool located at 670 N. Arizona Ave., Suite 35 in Chandler. For information, call 480-963-2313 or visit
