The word comes from the name of the scientist Alessandro Volta, who invented the first photo voltaic battery, not Voltaire...he was a writer.
It was named in honour of Count Alessandro Giuseppe Antonio Anastasio Volta who developed the first electric cell.
The unit of electrical potential is the volt. The volt was named for the Italian physicist Alessandro Volta.
If it does not come with a plug on it, no. If it is made for direct wire, then 99.9% chance is that it is a 240 volt unit. If you plug it into a 120 volt outlet your water will barely get warm.
AC (alternating current). Depending on the region, it may be around 110 volt, or around 220 volt. Also depending on the region, it may come at a frequency of 50 Hz, or of 60 Hz.
If you want your bulbs to last longer then use 130 volt bulb on a 120 volt system. The light emitted by a 130 volt bulb, when comparing it to a 120 volt bulb, will be a bit dimmer.
No, not a good idea. You have to use a 347 volt ballast.
The word revolt has the word volt in it.:p
Volt is the SI word chosen for the unit of electromotive force. It is named for the Italian physicist Allesandro Volta who invented the voltaic pile, possibly the first chemical battery.
The volt is named in honor of the Lombard physicist Alessandro Volta (1745–1827), who invented the voltaic pile, possibly the first chemical battery. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alessandro_Volta#Honors
start by saying the word "VOLT" then replace the "T" with a "K" add the s then say "WAGON" where I come from in it tends to come out sounding like "fvollkswaaggen"
Because Alessandro Volta invented the word volt to measure electricity
The unit of electrical potential is the volt. The volt was named for the Italian physicist Alessandro Volta.
The word "volt" comes from the man who created the standard of measuring this unit of electrical pressure, Allesandro Volta.
The term "volt" was named after the Italian physicist Alessandro Volta who invented the electric battery in the late 18th century. The name was chosen to honor his contributions to the field of electricity.
They Chevy Volt came out in 2010 as a 2011 model, at base price of $32,780
Count Alessandro Giuseppe Antonio Anastasio Volta (18 February 1745 - 5 March 1827) was a Italian physicist known especially for the development of the first electric cell in 1800. The volt unit is named after him.
The word "volt" is named after the Italian physicist Alessandro Volta.
Wait til they come out
