The 'arc' in arc welding is not an acronym but in turn is a reference to the electric arc that is being generated during the welding process.

Is a welding arc as bright as the sun?
That that would depend on what welder you are using. But most welders do have a arc that is brighter than the sun
How does an arc second compare to an arc minute and degree?
An arc-second is equivalent to one sixtieth (1/60) of one arc-minute. An arc-minute is equivalent to one sixtieth (1/60) of one degree.
Where does uv radiation happen?
The sun, arc welding, "black lights" (looking fro fluorescence). [inside florescent lights - but its blocked by the surface of the bulbs.)
How did the Arc Lamp change the world of lighting?
The Arc Lamp is the first commercially successful form of electric lamp. It changed the world of lighting by setting the trend on carbon electric lights.
What is 0.01 arcsecond?
0.01 arc second is one hundredth of an arc-second.An arc-second is one sixtieth of an arc-minute. (There are about 30 arc-seconds across the visible diameter of the Sun or Moon).An arc-minute is one sixtieth of a degree.A degree is one three hundred and sixtieth of a circle.So a hundredth of an arc-second is a good resolution for a fine telescope.If you have an image of the Moon where the moon is 3000 pixels wide (probably twice the width of your computer screen) then 0.01 arc-second is one pixel.
What is the full form of arc welding?
If you are asking for the correct nomenclature it is Shielded Metal Arc Welding.
What is full form of arc welding?
If you are asking for the correct nomenclature it is Shielded Metal Arc Welding.
What is the full form of saw welding?
submerged arc welding (SAW)
Does arc welding create ozone?
Yes, arc welding does create ozone. It is because the temperatures created during arc welding convert the nearby oxygen to ozone.
Where do you prefer arc welding?
Almost all welding today is done with electricity (Arc Welding) even on cast iron. SMAW, GTAW, GMAW etc. --AW means Arc Welding.
Can you use LPG for ARC welding?
ARC welding uses large amounts of electricity to melt the metal, not a hot flame. So no, LPG cannot be used for ARC welding.
Explain the principle behind arc welding.?
Arc welding uses an electrical current to create enough heat to melt metal. Any type of welding that uses an electric arc is technically arc welding. However, most people use the term 'arc welding' to mean shielded metal arc welding (SMAW), or 'stick welding'. SMAW, MIG, and flux core wire welding use the filler metal as both electrode and filler; TIG welding uses an electric arc to heat the base metal and a separate filler rod to add metal to the weld.
What is plasma welding?
Plasma welding is another name for arc welding. It is a process in which electricity super heats air to form a plasma arc. This arc transmits an electrical current to a metal surface and creates heat to melt the metal together thus creating a weld joint.
Name the welding processes covered in this chapter which may use a shielding gas to shield the weld area?
Gas Tungsten Arc Welding Gas Metal Arc Welding Flux Cored Arc Welding
What is SMAW?
Shielded Metal Arc Welding, known colloquially as "stick".
When welding in a vertical position the arc length is longer then welding in a flat position?
Actually I usually crowd the puddle when welding vertical up. The longer the arc length the more the arc can wander.
What is arc in welding?
arc energy is the amps that are comming off from the electrode
