Who invented the inclined plane?
The inclined plane was used by ancients, so no one is credited with "discovering" or "inventing" it. Ancient peoples used a "ramp" to raise things to a higher elevation, whether it was in pyramid building (or the construction of other structures), or just traveling a route. Ancient trade routes that force a traveler to gain altitude offer the so-called switchback to allow a gradual increase in elevation. This makes it easier for people and pack animals to get up over mountain barriers, and it is a "natural" application of the inclined plane. Pyramids were very awesome thanks to this "ramp"
If you press wire to both ends of a battery will it explode or just get very hot?
It will get very hot if nothing but the battery is connected with wire but it won't explode...., in science class we did this, it's called electricity. All you're doing is making an electric circuit. Try connecting wire to a lightbulb, and touch the battery on both ends with the wire also. It will light the lightbulb up. Maybe go back to elementary school. lol
What are Albert Einstein's weaknesses and greatest strengths?
He is a very smart man but through out his childhood he has been expeled and he was never the smartest...never ever, so school is one of his weeknesses. He is a very great man with many great streaths, like math science, and inventing things. He has his own way of doing things and that worked out for him.
What is leakage problem in battery?
1. Electrolyte leakage by corrosion of package, not good packing 2. Electricity leakage by electronic conduction through separators, intended for preventing such leakage and permit only battery outside conduction caused by protrusions that wound the separators which are very thin
How do they get so much energy in a battery?
The aim of a battery designer is to pack as much energy as possible into the minimum mass and the minimum volume. That is also the aim of people researching new forms of battery. A conventional lead-acid car battery stores very approximately one half a kilowatt-hour in a mass of around 15 kg. Other more modern designs can store more energy per kilogram and per litre, but lead-acid batteries win on reliability in all weather conditions.
