I had heard about that, and so when I was walking through the Calgary airport last year I walked into a shop and was surprised when I found two bottles left. Bought one of them.
I always knew green was different from the others, and I found out the secret just a few months ago. Green is the...
He wasn't asking about closed bolt versus open bolt, and the AR, AK, SKS, XCR, etc., etc., are all closed bolt, anyways. Closed-bolt is better for machine guns, as far as I understand it.
Edit: Meant to say open-bolt is better for machine guns.
No kidding - there is some distortion there, for sure.
I am going to make two guesses: 1) This outlet is fed from a transformer (i.e not directly from a generator) and 2) that transformer is being driven into saturation (supported by the magnitude of the voltage; the positive and negative peaks...
I've got a bone stock 686 Plus with a 6 inch barrel (I'm Canadian - barrel length of 4" or less is a prohibited-class firearm). It is fantastic to shoot and as a bonus you can shoot .38 spl rounds if you're doing target shooting.
1. You reduce frictional losses indirectly because you can generate more torque at lower speeds. (By using a higher gear ratio you can reduce the speed of the engine for a given output at a given speed)
2.Turbocharging has no direct effect on the compression ratio. Whether you select...
Don't be silly. MichaelD, the package/label for any extension cord (worth buying) will list recommended lengths and gauges for typical loads. Have a look at your tablesaw motor's nameplate and there should be mention of current/amps/amperes somewhere. Multiply that current by 120 and that...
This is incorrect. Residential type breakers will trip at 100% rated current typically within 1 or 2 hours. There is wording in the code (both of NEC/CEC) which requires different protection/cabling for "continuous" loads. See imagoon's post, above.
That's the second stupidest post in this thread, following the OP.
No one can say what is the "best" career field; much less determine which of those three is the "best" for the OP. What does "best" even mean?
Today on the radio they brought up the stats that, of three cities in the States that had the NHL return, the teams always had a name different from the first.
I'm hoping it'll be different here in Winnipeg - no one will give a shit if it's not the Jets!
I just got my B.Sc.(EE) and I work at a consulting engineering firm. I shave monday-wednesday-friday. I can't stand going more than one day without shaving.
Edit: I should said this first: One way to see if its the motor would be to turn off the AC for a while to let the motor cool down. Then, start the AC. If the motor turns momentarily but eventually stops then it's 90% certain that the motor has some shorted windings. This happened to us...
B.Sc.(EE). It's typically a 5 year degree but certain nutcases (such as myself) have done it in 4 years. My convocation is May 31. I went the power systems route and I don't think I could have made a better choice for myself.
No kidding!
Just wait till someone tells them that you actually control torque via the throttle and its actually the drivetrain friction + wind resistance + gravity (if traveling up a slope) that determines the output speed, and therefore the HP, of the engine.
Torque is the important quantity.
+1. My five-piece X3 set I got at the Home Depot a year ago kicks butt. The circular saw has an amazing amount of power given that it's cordless and the lifetime service agreement was an awesome bonus.
You'll have to pardon me - I totally misunderstood your point. I thought that you meant that losses were not constant along the line yet somehow concentrated near the end when in fact you were speaking about the distribution circuits dissipating the majority of the loss.
Conductor sizes on either "side" of a transformer are never the same. If you were trying to back up what Mark R said then I should say that by references I meant IEEE papers, not Wikipedia.
I agree with your other points but can you back this up / point me toward a reference or two? Based on what I've learned in the past two years and my own intuition I don't understand where such a statement could be true.
Thermal limits only come into play for short distances. For long distance transmission, the power angle / stability is the ruling factor. Sure, using 765kV class transmission you can push 2GW 500km, however I suspect that transmission distances in Japan aren't quite what they are in North...
In all of Firefox's wisdom, it somehow knew that those dialogue boxes were more important than my attempts to close the tab.
[/micro-rant] It's funny how computer science people think that they know best how people *should* think and act. I get the greatest urge to tell them just how fucking...
Is all residential wiring required to be installed within conduit in Chicago? I've heard that there are places that require all conduit. How much more time do you think it takes to wire a house with conduit versus NMD ?
The above statement doesn't represent any real-world situation nor is it useful to think in such terms. You don't exercise such control over your engine anyway (how would you accelerate if you maintained your RPM?). In order to accelerate as fast as possible you would go WOT. When you...
