Is geothermal a source of electricity?

Is geothermal a source of electricity? Geothermal energy is a renewable energy source because heat is continuously produced inside the earth. People use geothermal heat for bathing, to heat buildings, and to generate electricity. Is geothermal energy harmful to humans? When done properly, yes. As with any industrial project there are risks involved, but when […]

How do we use refraction in everyday life?

How do we use refraction in everyday life? Refraction of light can be seen in many places in our everyday life. It makes objects under a water surface appear closer than they really are. It is what optical lenses are based on, allowing for instruments such as glasses, cameras, binoculars, microscopes, and the human eye. […]

Is the bottom of the wave?

Is the bottom of the wave? The bottom of a wave is called the trough. The distance between two consecutive crests or two consecutive troughs is the wavelength. What happens when a deep water wave starts to feel the bottom? As a deep-water wave reaches shore, at the point where the depth of the water […]

What materials can you use for magnetic particle inspection?

What materials can you use for magnetic particle inspection? Common metallic materials like nickel, iron, steel, and cobalt are all ferromagnetic and perfect candidates for magnetic particle testing. Where is magnetic particle testing used? Magnetic particle inspection is used for detecting defects (discontinuities in surfaces and shallow subsurfacaes) in ferromagnetic materials. By magnetization of the […]

What is Parallax give an everyday example?

What is Parallax give an everyday example? The term “parallax” refers to the apparent movement of objects when viewed from different positions. The everyday example of this is seen driving on the highway– when you look out the window, electrical poles near the road seem to zoom past, while trees in the distance appear to […]

Is selective coordination required?

Is selective coordination required? Selective coordination is required for systems related to life safety (as defined in the NEC), and is achieved when an overcurrent on a circuit is interrupted and only the closest upstream device opens such that only the section of the electrical system with a problem is taken offline. What is selective […]

How do you find the internal diameter?

How do you find the internal diameter? Calculating the internal diameter depends on the outside diameter and the thickness of the outer circle. Find the total diameter of the object in question by taking a measurement from the outside wall of one side (the point of origination) straight across to the outside wall of the […]

When did the church admit the Earth was round?

When did the church admit the Earth was round? 1633 When was Heliocentrism finally accepted? It was not until the 16th century that a mathematical model of a heliocentric system was presented, by the Renaissance mathematician, astronomer, and Catholic cleric Nicolaus Copernicus, leading to the Copernican Revolution. Did the Catholic Church accept the heliocentric theory? […]
