What is the Alaskan Pipline?
The Alaskan oil pipeline is a 48" pipe that runs 800 miles from the Alaskan North Slope (where the oil is removed from the ground) to Valdez (where it can be loaded on ships year around because the bay at Valdez doesn't freeze over in winter).

What are some great surfing places in Hawaii?
Hawaii is well known as an excellent place for surfing. Some of the best places for it include Jaws on Maui and Banzai Pipline on Oahu. Another superb place is Castles also on Oahu.
If Water is non compressible fluid how pressure will be developed in water in pipeline then How pressurised water kept in pipline in fire fighting system?
The kinetic energy of the water is being converted into pressure energy and thus pressurised water kept in pipeline in fire fighting system.
Do the pipline losses reduce after the pipeline are in use for 1 year or so?
No. The pressure drop remains the same. The only thing that could led to a smaller pressure drop after 1 (or more) year, is the internal surface friction coefficient. But this coefficient does not change in a measurable way. Perhaps small particles are re-arranged inside the pipe, but the coefficient remains the same. So does pressure drop.
How is crude oil transported to the refinery?
There are many different/possible ways depending on many factors such as where the source [well] is located in relation to the refinery. Based on that I will give some ideas which I can recall at the moment. 1. By a tank truck from the well site to the refinery. 2. By gathering piplines from several wells, to a larger pipeline to a refinery. 3. By truck and/or pipline to a tanker ship to a refinery.
Which type of heat source is the cleanest?
The cleanest energy source is nuclear power plant because you dont need to use too much gas, you're only needing a coal and uranium but except for its pipline that can be hazardous to those living near it..
How did island hopping help us win the war and how did the Battle of Midway play a big part in World War 2?
Midway effectively knocked out Four Japanese Carriers in one engagement-onl one Us Aircraft carrier- the Yorktown, was lost in the engagement. It was the first major naval battle fought entirely iln the air! ( true surface ships played a part and anti-aricraft guns were ablaze on both sides). Island hopping was essential to the logistics pipeline-and battle line of the Pacific War and involved such specialists as frogmen ( to destroy underwater obstacles, natural and man-made) Seabees ( Construction Battalion men, Navy variety) as well as Marines and other servicemen in action. The island hopping was as vital to the Pacific War as the logistics pipline of supply ships ( and their encounters with U-boats-called the Battle of the Atlantic) to the European Theatre of Operations. If there were a string of Islands in the Atlantic, they would have been involved, but there are very few of tactical importance. Marines served mainly, almost exclusively in the Pacific Theate of War II.
