Lesson 11. Topic “Heating effect of an electric current”. Grammar material: Articles. Text: “Heating effect of an electric current”. The production of heat is perhaps the most familiar among the principal effects of an electric current‚ either because of its development in the filaments of the electric lamps or‚ may be‚ because of the possible danger from overloaded wires. As you know‚ of course‚ a metal wire carrying a current will almost always be at a higher temperature than the temperature of

He was born in the Austro-Hungarian Empire‚ in an area now known as Croatia‚ in 1856‚ merely nine years after Edison was born. Tesla also grew up with a dream of working with electricity‚ and he started his career by working for Edison himself. He eventually branched off to create a rival business‚ working against Edison with his own designs. A few of his patented inventions include the basic design for a radio transmitter‚ wireless

Life without Electricity In today’s society humankind has become dependent on electricity to be able to live and function. So how would the world be if we couldn’t rely on electricity? There would be no TVs‚ factories‚ cars‚ or even phones. Without electricity we would have to go back to our great great great grandparents’ ways of living. To entertain themselves children would have to learn how to use their imagination. In a world without electricity there would be no video games to play or TVs

Papereth of Research Who is the king of electricity? Between Tesla and Edison‚ there are so many different contrasts and contradictions between the two which brought together their mass differences‚ even their currents are different‚ between the two men‚ who has the highest voltage and the highest power over their community? I’m Josh Short and I’m here to show you the differences in how these men lost their light bulbs. Thomas Alva Edison was a businessman along with an inventor‚ He created mau

Ways to save electricity Nowadays many people have electricity‚ but they don’t know how to use it wisely. There is many way to save electricity. We must use electricity wisely. 1. Way is only use electricity when needed. 2. Replace all of your inefficient incandescent light bulbs with energy efficient CFL bulbs. Replace halogen spotlights with much more efficient and longer lasting LED Spotlight. 3. Hang your clothes out to dry rather than using an electric tumble dryer. Ideally use a spin dryer before

ity C&G 2330 202 REVISION QUESTIONS The relationship between the mass of a body (m)‚ the applied force to the body (F) and the acceleration of the body a. is given by the formula: a. Force = mass x acceleration‚ F = m x a b. mass = Force x acceleration‚ m = F x a c. acceleration = mass x Force‚ a = m x F d. acceleration = mass / Force‚ a = m / F answer: a The SI unit of time is the second. Express 0.00001 seconds in a suitable sub multiple: a. 10 milliseconds‚ 10 ms b. 100 milliseconds

Electromagnetism and Modern Technologies The invention of electricity has benefited mankind in several aspects of life ever since the 1800s. Over the course of the past two centuries‚ scientists have been developing theories that serve as the backbone for various devices today. Such intellectuals have been attempting to understand the credibility and applicability of the already existent theories‚ such as electricity and magnetism. In addition‚ they have introduced new concepts by either creating

current of the voltaic cell. In a voltaic cell‚ chemical energy is concerted to electrical though the oxidation and reduction happen on the electrodes. Current will not flow through pure water. There must be electrolytes dissolved in it before electricity can pass through it. When the concentration of sulfuric acid is increased‚ the number of ions is increased. There will be more ion carrying electric charge. Then‚ current is increased. Introduction and Background This is the Cu-Zn voltaic cell

Arc Welding • Welcome to the world of WELDING What is Arc Welding? An electric arc between the and electrode and the work piece generates heat. Sufficient heat is generated to melt the work pieces together. ELECTRODE ARC WORK PIECES Electricity The range of welding current used can be from 5 to 500 amps. The voltage ranges from 20 to 30 volts‚ AC or DC. Both are determined by the material thickness. A 60 watt light bulb draws .5 amps. Four Common Types of Welding •Stick SMAW (shielded
