The three main factors determining combustion efficiency in Otto engines are optimal compression pressure, effective ignition, and fuel quality. In this study, two critical variables—fuel pump pressure (38, 43, and 48 Psi) and fuel type (RON 90 and RON 92)—were analyzed to understand their impact on specific fuel consumption (SFC). An experimental research method was employed to test the effect of independent variables on dependent variables under controlled conditions. The results indicate that a fuel pump pressure of 43 Psi provides the most stable and efficient fuel consumption performance for both fuel types across the entire engine speed range. A fuel pump pressure of 38 Psi is optimal at medium engine speeds but less efficient at high speeds, whereas a pressure of 48 Psi is most efficient at low to medium speeds but decreases in efficiency at high speeds. Overall, RON 92 fuel shows an efficiency improvement over RON 90, particularly at medium to high engine speeds. The combination of a fuel pump pressure of 43 Psi and the use of RON 92 fuel is recommended to achieve optimal specific fuel consumption, as it provides consistent efficiency across various engine operating conditions.

This paper examined the role of social media on mental health amidst the acceleration of digital transformation. The increasing engagement of young people in social media platforms has raised major concerns regarding its impact on psychological well-being. This study investigates that there is a strong correspondence of social media consumption and the emergence of mental health issues such as depression and anxiety and social isolation among adolescents. Data shows a significant increase in screen/mobile time among Indonesian adolescents, with average daily use exceeding global recommendations and correlating with high incidence of mental health disorders. This study utilized a comprehensive review of the existing literature, as well as engaging multiple academic sources to assess the cumulative impact of the digital Effect. Key findings suggest that excessive interaction with digital platforms potentially increases risk of cyberbullying, body image problems, depression, anxiety, self-harm, suicidal tendencies and substance consumption. Another finding, that exposure to sexual content or pornographic sites on the internet, is a predictor of increased sexual activity and premarital sex. This is an important concern, highlighting the adverse impact of prolonged digital effects on adolescents' mental resilience and life satisfaction. This research underscores the urgent need for strategic interventions and policy frameworks to mitigate the negative effects of social media on mental health holistically.

This counseling focuses on the lack of awareness among teenagers about their body health, where up to now teenagers still seem to be indifferent to their body health. This is because teenagers now tend to prefer consuming fast food over healthy food. The aim of this counseling is to make teenagers aware of efforts to maintain body health by reducing consumption of fast food and to find out the reasons why teenagers don't like healthy food and are reluctant to consume it. This counseling was carried out because it was motivated by teenagers who tend to prefer consuming fast food compared to vegetables or other healthy foods. This extension uses quantitative methods by measuring the extent to which they understand about fast food and healthy food to find the necessary data. From the results found in the field, some teenagers prefer to consume fast food compared to healthy food. An obstacle to implementing a healthy lifestyle is that teenagers tend to prefer flavored foods or drinks rather than foods such as vegetables or water. So we as health promoters must be able to provide motivation, support and examples for teenagers to eat healthy food and adopt a healthy lifestyle.

Economic development is a multidimensional change process that covers various aspects and affects the quality of life and human welfare. Economic development can be approached regionally through mapping regions and growth centers (growth pools) with the aim of achieving efficient production, distribution and consumption of goods and services. Sectorally, the tourism sector is a sector that absorbs labor, captures community economic efforts, attracts tourists and brings in foreign exchange. Therefore, encouraging tourism development can create wider employment opportunities and accelerate economic growth and employment. The aim of this research is to determine the influence of the number of tourists and investment in hotels and restaurants in the tourism industry sector of the city of Surabaya. The research used quantitative descriptive with secondary data for 2014-2023 obtained from the Department of Culture, Youth and Sports and Tourism of the City of Surabaya and data from BPS. The data collected is by tabulation, analysis and also document study. The results of research using the growth rate test and also the elasticity test show that the growth in the number of tourists (X1) has no effect on labor absorption (Y). investment growth (X2) influences labor absorption (Y). 

Organic fertilizer is very important in efforts to improve soil fertility naturally and safely, in the broadest sense of being free from chemicals that are harmful to human health, therefore this organic fertilizer is very safe for consumption. This research was carried out in a housing complex on Jl. Tombak, Medan Tembung District, Medan City, North Sumatra. The research method used in this research is the experimental and observation method. The aim of this research is to determine the content of organic fertilizer made from mixed waste of onion skins and garlic skins with used rice water washing. And the results of the research that has been carried out show that the organic fertilizer that the researchers made failed due to several factors, such as perhaps there being onion skins that had rotted and should not be used and also the fermentation process time was too long, so it did not meet the required standards. Apart from that, when filtering to remove onion skin waste, the liquid fertilizer the researchers made smelled pungent and rotten.

Alcoholic drinks are often the main factor in various crimes, including assault, robbery and murder. Excessive alcohol consumption can cause loss of self-control, which can lead to unlawful acts such as traffic accidents, rape, assault, theft and domestic violence. This behavior disturbs public peace and has the potential to hinder the achievement of several Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), such as good health (goal 3) and peace and justice (goal 16). This article aims to analyze the influence of excessive alcohol consumption on increasing criminal acts and its relationship to achieving the SDGs. Using qualitative methods with a normative legal approach and literature study, this research examines legal norms, statutory regulations and other relevant legal documents. Data analysis was carried out descriptively to identify the relationship between alcohol consumption, criminal acts, and their impact on achieving the SDGs. The research results show that excessive alcohol consumption contributes significantly to the increase in violent crimes and is a risk factor in cases of domestic violence and sexual harassment. Apart from the negative impact on physical and mental health, drunken behavior also hinders the achievement of SDGs, such as goal 3, goal 5 (gender equality), and goal 16. Although regulations in Indonesia have attempted to regulate the consumption and distribution of alcohol, their effectiveness still requires improvement. It is hoped that with a comprehensive approach and stricter policies, the negative impacts of alcohol consumption can be minimized, supporting the achievement of sustainable development goals.

The Zero Waste concept is a comprehensive approach to waste management that aims to minimize waste production from the early stages of the production process to the end of the product life cycle. The basic principles include the application of the 3R concept (Reduce, Reuse, Recycle), as well as the integration of 4R to 5R principles (Reduce, Reuse, Recycle, Replace, and Replant), which emphasize reduction, reuse, recycling, replacement with environmentally friendly goods, and replanting. By implementing a Zero Waste approach, Indonesia has the potential to reduce the impact of environmental pollution, save natural resources, and encourage more responsible consumption patterns. However, the challenge of implementing Zero Waste in Indonesia requires collaboration between the government, private sector, civil society and international institutions to create an environment that supports Zero Waste adoption.
