6 separate 18kOhm resistors wired in series make a total resistance of:
18k+18k+18k+18k+18k+18k which is 108 kOhm.
6 separate 18kOhm resistors wired in parallel make a total resistance of:
1/[(1/18k) + (1/18k) + (1/18k) + (1/18k) + (1/18k) + (1/18k)] which is 3 kOhm.
It was the 18th of October in the year of 1879
It is just the sum of all hours of availability divided by the total hours of a month. i.e. For December the quantity of hours of service was about 700hrs and the total hours for this month 744; so the availability factor is 700/744=0.94; in other words 94%
The concept was thought up in 1675. In 1855 the Geissler Tube was invented, it would lead to neon lighting. The first purposeful neon light was made on December 11, 1910. For more information, look here: http://inventors.about.com/od/qstartinventions/a/neon.htm
Lewis Latimer was Edison's as well as Alexander Graham Bell's Assistant, having drawn up the plans for the telephone that Bell, an audiologist, invented. Latimer also came up with the substance used in the filament of Edison's successful version of the Incandescent Light Bulb and wrote the original manual for electrical distribution, but was barred, in the 1870's through the 1920's until admitted then to the EDISON PIONEERS...... Mr. Latimer was born September 4, 1848 in Chelsea, Massachusetts and died on December 11, 1928 in New York City, New York.
Nuclear power plants have been build in several sizes. The nuclear reactor to generate electricity was EBR-1, the Experimental Breeder Reactor number 1 in Idaho. On December 20th 1952 it generated enough electricity to power four light bulbs! On June 27 1954 the Obninisk Nuclear Power Station in the USSR became the first nuclear reactor to provide electricity to an electricity grid. It was a 5MW (electric) reactor. In general the larger a reactor the cheaper the electricity it produces, although larger reactors are arguably less safe than smaller ones. The largest nuclear power plant in the world currently is the Kashiwazaki-Kariwa Nuclear Power Plant. It has seven reactors in the gigawatt range, KK-1 to KK-5, which are boiling water reactors with an rated output of 1.067GW(e) each, and KK-6 and KK-7, advanced boiling water reactors each with rated outputs of 1.315GW(e). However these reactors and their associated fuel fabrication facilities have been plagued with problems including management malfeasance, falsification of data and earthquakes. All reactors are currently offline for inspection. a reactor is the cheaper it can produce electricity though, and recent designs have be in the multi-gigawatt range.
