Who made the HR diagram? Ejnar Hertzsprung What is the biggest difference between a star and a protostar? The fundamental difference between a protostar and a star is that the latter has nuclear fusion as its energy source and the former does not. The birth of stars is a battle between gravity and radiation pressure. […]

What is a step down transformer for voltage? A Step down Transformer is a type of transformer, which converts a high voltage at the primary side to a low voltage at the secondary side. If we speak in terms of the coil windings, the primary winding of a Step down Transformer has more turns than […]

What are advantages of using microwaves? Advantages of Microwaves Supports larger bandwidth and hence more information is transmitted. More antenna gain is possible. Higher data rates are transmitted as the bandwidth is more. Antenna size gets reduced, as the frequencies are higher. Low power consumption as the signals are of higher frequencies. What are the […]
