How can central heating controls save money?
Central controls allow water and space heating to be controlled independently. Areas of the home may also be broken down into zones to provide heat only where you want it. By heating only the parts of your home where you need heat allows you to save on your heating bill.
The distinct wind patterns on earth's surface are created by what and by the coriolis effect?
The distinct wind patterns on Earthâ??s surface are created by differences in heating and by the Coriolis effect. Temperature differences on Earthâ??s surface create areas of different pressure and the winds.
Why do you need to know the surface area of anything?
You do not need to know anything at all! You can exist for a short while as a troglodyte in blissful ignorance of everything. Except that you would need to know what a troglodyte is! Biochemical reactions often take place at the surface of cells and so the bigger the surface area the more reactants are processed. This may be a good thing if you body is taking in oxygen or a bad thing if you are in contact with a contact nerve agent! Things lose heat by radiation from their surfaces. This is why radiators - for heating homes or cooling cars - have fins to increase their surface areas. On a more trivial topic, the surface area of a wall will determine how much paint (or wallpaper) you will need.
Do The surface areas of the ocean have abundant nutrients?
The surface areas of the ocean have abundant nutrients.
Is it safe to try to heat your whole home with space heaters if your central heating fails?
Space Heaters have inherent safety risks.They are best used only in small areas where you have no other options.
What is the effect on coefficient of static friction when side length of a cube of 5 cm is doubled to original?
The surface areas in contact do not affect the coefficient.The surface areas in contact do not affect the coefficient.The surface areas in contact do not affect the coefficient.The surface areas in contact do not affect the coefficient.
What areas did Spain colonize?
<APEX> Areas in the South Central, And North America
Differentiate the surface water areas and surface land areas within the Philippine territorial limits?
The surface water areas of the Philippines covers a larger space than those of the surface land areas. This is possible because 3/4 of the Earth is covered by water.
How does differential heating affect pressure?
Differential heating creates high-and-low-pressure areas, creating wind.
How do you calculate the surface areas?
The answer will depend on what the surface area is of. The surface areas of regular shapes are can be calculated from formulae but these will depend on the shapes. For non-regular areas there may or may not be simple formulae.
What are the trench like areas on Moon's surface?
the trench like areas on the moons surface are called craters
What heating and cooling is popularly used now in some areas?
Geothermal energy is used in some areas.
