to have large diameter without increasing its weight.

to reduce the eddy current loss in the machine
Answer for mechanical systems:Use oil or grease to reduce friction!Answer for electrical systems:Making the voltage as high as possible is a good way to reduce power loss.ExplanationThe voltage drop along a conductor is proportional to the resistance and to the current carried. (V=IxR) So, for a given quantity of Power (W=VxI), if the voltage is made as high as possible there will be less current flowing and therefore less power loss.
1. initial cost is low 2. reduce the loss by reducing the resistance
A: Absolutely a power transfer will have an internal loss of IR . for a power transformer the loss can be as much of 20% or more if other magnetics are involved like iron screw holding the lamination together. Usually brass is used to reduce that loss.

-it prevents conductor from electrical surges -it increases virtual diameter hence conductor can carry more current -corona discharge is used in photo copier and laser printers
Hollow bricks are used as air is a good insulator. Thick walls are used to reduce heat loss to the surroundings as the brick is also a poor conductor of heat. (although not as much effective as air)
frequency is directly propotional to corona loss... so higher the freq the corona also high..
Because foam has many little air pockets, which reduce heat loss. Also, air is an insulator which means it is a poor conductor. Hope that helped!
When the distance between two conductors is more than that of the diameter and the potential difference is increased beyond the certain limit in such a way so that a glow ( seems like violet and shine ) is produced around the conductor and also noise is produced. This kind of effect called the Corona Effect in power systems. As the potential difference is increased, Corona Effect is also increased, and due to Corona Effect, Power loss in power system and disturbance in the nearer communication line is also increased.
Plastic is an insulator therefore it is a poor conductor of heat. A plastic box will therefore be able to keep a lot of heat on the inside.

Mutual fund do not reduce the risk of loss.
A: Transmission lines while there is ceramic insulators providing separation to the phases will have a corona if the insulators are dirty providing small current leakage ionizing the air around it therefore corona effect.
The scales on the fish body helps it to reduce water loss.
At very high voltages, corona becomes an issue, such as in high power transmission. In effect, if there are any "sharp points", square corners, etc., electrons will tend to build up and this build up begins to damage the structure. this is why in very high voltage subs, you will see rings used instead of bolts or hooks (easiest to see at the top of poles).
