Yes, either in its true way as a motor-racing term, or as a metaphor, perhaps to describe someone acting very enthusiastically at the moment of opportunity.

It might also appear in a report etc about electricity generation: "XXX power-station was taken off the grid following major failure"; meaning the National Grid of power-lines, switching etc.

What are the functions of each of the 5 grids of a Pentagrid Converter tube starting at the grid closest to the cathode in its use in a Superheterodyne Radio?

There are three varieties of pentagrids. Initial type - 6A7 type (converter). Grid 1 - oscillator grid, Grid 2 - oscillator anode, Grid 3 - screen grid, Grid 4 - signal grid, Grid 5 - screen grid. Development - 6SA7/1R5 type (converter). Grid 1 - oscillator grid, Grid 2 - screen grid, Grid 3 - signal grid, Grid 4 - screen grid, Grid 5 - suppressor grid. Development - 6L7 (mixer). Grid 1 - signal grid, Grid 2 - screen grid, Grid 3 - oscillator injection grid, Grid 4 - screen grid, Grid 5 - suppressor grid.


How many triangles can you make on a 3X3 grid?

The correct answer is 76. There are 9 points in the grid. You can pick any 3 out of these 9 points in 9*8*7/(3*2*1) = 84 ways. However, 3 will form horizontal lines in the grid, 3 will form vertical lines in the grid, and 2 will form diagonal lines in the grid. None of these 8 triplets will form triangles, but all the rest will. So the answer is 84-8=76.


What are rules for reading grid references?

When reading grid references on a map, start by identifying the easting (horizontal) coordinate, followed by the northing (vertical) coordinate. Ensure you read the numbers accurately and place them in the correct order to pinpoint the location on the map.


How many triangles are there in a three by three grid?

9 squares = 18 triangles * * * * * The correct answer is 76. There are 9 points in the grid. You can pick any 3 out of these 9 points in 9*8*7/(3*2*1) = 84 ways. However, 3 will form horizontal lines in the grid, 3 will form vertical lines in the grid, and 2 will form diagonal lines in the grid.
