Negligence means the responsible person did not take care of what he needed to take care of.
If my 3 year old child gets hurt because I left them to go to the store, that is negligence on my part.

The oceans are Full of life, yet there is no air, crushing pressure (at greater depths) and sometimes, dangerous animals.oceans are extreme because they are simply unpredictable in many ways. the pressure is too much for humans to take so the farther we go the more danger. also. the farther we go the more un discovered marine life we may find meening probable danger.


Does water from a puddle evaporate or condense?

Puddles evaporate due to the random movement of some of the atoms. This causes some of the atoms to reach their "boiling point". Once this happens the molocules evaporate and then the puddle cools down. Eventually the puddle warms up due to the warmer suroundings. Then the particles warm up so they start to move and then some of them reach teir "boiling point", these molocules then evaporate. This cycle is repeated over and over again until the puddle has completely evaporated.Because of the heat the particles get smaller and smaller until you can't see them


120V gas Kenmore dryer and the hook up location has the big 240V female receptacle--what is easiest solution thanks?

The easiest solution is to leave the 220V original outlet alone and plug the 110V dryer into a close 110V outlet, most likely the one for the washer. There should be nearby 110V outlets so you don't have to muck with rewiring the 220V outlet. A short heavy-duty extension cord is an option. I would also recommend killing the power to the old dryer outlet if it is unused. It cannot hurt. If you cannot plug the dryer into a nearby 110V outlet you can derate the 220V outlet down to a dedicated 110V outlet. This is not a task to be taken lightly if you are not experienced. If you do take this course of action yourself, buy a book. Do it right or don't do it at all. Negligence could kill someone.
