What is thicker 14 gauge or 18 gauge fence wire?
Well I am asnwering this just because the body piercing industry uses AWG (American Wire Gauge) for a standard jewellery gauge. So 14g is thicker than 18g, the higher the number the thinner it is, the lower the number the thicker it is.
2 resistors unequal value are in parallel. Would the power dissipated by the resistor with larger ohmic value be greater than the power dissipated by the resistor of lesser value?
No, because the power dissipated in a resistor is proportional to the square of the current through the resistor but only directly proportional to the resistance of the resistor (I^2 * R) and the current through the lower value resistor will be higher than the current through the higher value resistor, the lower value resistor will usually dissipate more power.
For same peak value of current which waveform will have least RMS value?
A square wave will have the highest value since it has a peak, positive or negative, all of the time. Other wave shapes such as triangular and sine, have a lower value than this.
How many watts is 10kva?
Watts is equal to volts x current x Power Factor. The maximum value of Power Factor is 1 for a resistive load. For motors and other inductive devices the Power Factor is less than 1. Your maximum wattage is 10,000 watts and decreases as Power Factor decreases.
What is effect of power factor on the readings of wattmeter?
If you are asking whether power-factor improvement has any effect on a wattmeter reading, then the answer is no, it doesn't. Improving the power factor of a load has absolutely no effect on the power of the load, but it can act to reduce the value of the load current.
Which is thicker 12 gauge or 20 gauge?
12 gauge is thicker than 20 gauge. The lower the gauge, the thicker the sheet metal or wire.
How does a car outside temp sensor work?
The sensor can either be an RTD, resistive thermal device or a thermocouple. In the case of RTD, the resistance of the device changes with the temperature. This resistive value is sent to a calibrated meter or gauge. A RTD device is far more accurate than a thermocouple. Plus or minus .1 of 1%. In the case of a thermocouple a small voltage is created by the device which varies with the temperature. This is sent to the reading device or gauge. Plus or minus 2 0r 3 degrees.
What are the upper and lower quartiles of the data set?
The upper quartile is the value such that a quarter of the data are greater than that value. Similarly, the lower quartile is the value such that a quarter of the data are lower than that value.
Is 8 gauge weld wire fencing stronger than 10 gauge wire?
Wire gauges are defined in such a way that the lower the gauge, the thicker the wire. So, 8 gauge wire is thicker than 10 gauge wire.
What are the upper and lower quartiles?
The upper quartile of a set of data is a value such that a quarter of the observations are greater than that value. The lower quartile is similarly defined as the value such that a quarter of the observations are less than that value.
What is a the value of a Champion 18 gauge full choke barrel shotgun?
A little bit more than a 17 gauge but less than 19 guage.
What is the value of a 16 gauge Harrington and Richardson Model M48?
Less than $100.
What is the value of the friction coefficient between water and air?
Air and friction both being fluids, the resistive forces between them are more related to drag than friction.
What is the age and value of Ithaca 12 gauge model 37 ser number 217365?
The M37 was mge in 1949. Value depends on the condition and gauge, as a 20 would be worth more than a 12.

Does the current reach its maximum peak value at the same instant time in as does the voltage?
Yes if the power factor is unity.Additional AnswerOnly if the load is purely resistive. For a resistive-inductive (R-L) load, the current will reach its maximum value after the voltage reaches its maximum value, and we say the current is 'lagging the voltage'. For a resistive-capacitive (R-C) load, the current will reach its maximum value before the voltage reaches its maximum value, and we say the current is 'leading the voltage'.The angle of lag or lead is called the circuit's 'phase angle' and the cosine of that angle is termed the circuit's 'power factor'. So, for a purely-resistive circuit, the phase angle is zero and the power factor is 1 ('unit'). For R-L circuits, the power factor is less than 1, and is described as 'lagging'. For R-C circuits, the power factor is also less than 1, and is described as 'leading'.
