What happens to torque if field is non-uniform? An electric dipole always experiences a torque when placed in uniform as well as non-uniform electric field. But in non-uniform electric field, dipole will also experience net force of attraction. So the electric dipole in non-uniform electric field experiences both torque and force. What is meant by […]
What is the most efficient cycle for a steam power plant?
What is the most efficient cycle for a steam power plant? The Rankine cycle is the ideal cycle for vapor power plants; it includes the following four reversible processes: 1-2: Isentropic compression Water enters the pump as state 1 as saturated liquid and is compressed isentropically to the operating pressure of the boiler. What are […]
Is work done and kinetic energy Same?
How long do hydraulic pumps last?
How long do hydraulic pumps last? 20,000 hours How do I know if my hydraulic pump is bad? Pump trouble is usually characterized by increased noise, increased heat, erratic operation of cylinders, difficulty or inability to develop full output, decreased speed of cylinders or hydraulic motors, or failure of the system to work at all. […]

How often does the jet stream shift?
How often does the jet stream shift? This movement creates an air current, or wind. A jet stream is a type of air current that forms high in the atmosphere. On average, jet streams move at about 110 miles per hour. Why do waters sink in the North Atlantic? Water flowing northward becomes modified through […]
How do you classify clastic sedimentary rocks?
How do you classify clastic sedimentary rocks? Clastic sediments or sedimentary rocks are classified based on grain size, clast and cementing material (matrix) composition, and texture. The classification factors are often useful in determining a sample’s environment of deposition. What are sedimentary rocks and its classification? Sedimentary rocks are classified based on their texture and […]
What is the SI unit of only current?
Can plate tectonics be proven?
Can plate tectonics be proven? What is the cause of plate tectonics? Although this has yet to be proven with certainty, most geologists and geophysicists agree that plate movement is caused by the convection (that is, heat transfer resulting from the movement of a heated fluid) of magma in Earth’s interior. What are the evidences […]
Why is curiosity rover so slow?
Why is curiosity rover so slow? Originally Answered: Why does the Mars rover, Curiosity, move so slow? There are delicate instruments and experiments on board, and besides, they’re in no real “rush” to get anywhere, since so much science can be done even at the landing site while they figure out which route to pursue […]
