Certainly, It will work no matter how the unit is used, as long as it has line of sight to at least three satellites. The speed in which it makes corrections is constant and usually several times a second, therefore, whether you are walking or driving it works the same.

If you're already completely satisfied by the GPS that you have, then there's no need to buy another one. However, a GPS gives more detailed directions, as well as the ability to look up many more places on the go.

Can one person's efforts have a positive impact on the environment?

Yes, every little thing we do helps, even if it is just walking to the corner store instead of driving. As more and more people become aware of the consequences of our actions, others learn from our example. More pressure is put on businesses and governments to choose renewable instead of fossil fuel energy and we have a chance to slow the damage to our environment that is being caused by global warming.

Can you use dynamo in train to save electricity?

Yes, dynamic braking uses a dynamo to save energy when the train slows down. Normal brakes, using brake shoes on the wheels, get hot and waste the train's kinetic energy to the air. Instead, a dynamo produces a braking effect and at the same time sends the energy either into a battery or back into the train's overhead supply. An electrically driven train's driving motor can be used instead of a separate dynamo.


Why would three phase be used instead of single phase?

Three phase electricity is used instead of single phase for industrial situations. Industries use three phase electricity instead of single phase to operate electric motors driving heavy machinery. Three phase electrical motors produce more power from the same amount of electricity and maintain steadier speed. Small portable motors such as drills and mixers use single phase. Motors used around the house are single phase. Motors used to run large industrial machines use three phase.
