The main hazards are being electrocuted and falling off a ladder. They can be minimised by training, which is why the work is done by electricians, who in addition are familiar with the electrical regulations in the area where they live.

How could the damages be minimised tsunami 2004?

It couldn't have been minimised that much. The problems with tsunamis is that we are still unable to predict them. Things such as high walls and stronger buildings along with better awareness from the people may have minimised the impact. Also pipelines can be fitted with smartmeters which shut of gas and whatever else when they are broken therefore preventing fires, though this wasn't a major issue for the 2004 tsunami.

Is a flamingo harm -blooded or cold blooded?

Birds regulate their body temperature and could be described as warm blooded, which is one of the reasons they have feathers, to insulate them. Not all their body parts are kept warm though their feet and lower legs are much closer to ambient heat as it would take lots of energy to keep them warm. Although blood circulates through the lower legs and feet the heat loss/gain is minimised using a counter- current cirulatory system.


What four properties of a map can be distorted by projection?

I'm not sure I understand the question. But of course the globe is a sphere, and a sphere can not be correctly represented on a 2D plane (eg. a paper map). The distortion effect is minimised though as the area represented gets smaller. The other is that grid north and magnetic north differ.

1) voltage level up-down2) voltage level down-up3) isolationAnswerBecause transmission would be impossible except at high voltages/low load currents due to enormous voltage drops that would otherwise occur, and these are achieved using transformers..
