Short term effects of nuclear power?
skin cancer
Can you increase power by doing a given amount of work in a short period of time?
Yes, since power is work divided by time.
How would you classify an EM wave with a frequency of 10 to the power of 7 Hz?
I would classify it as a 'short wave' radio wave. Tuning my handy-dandy receiver to that frequency, I would expect to hear one of the standard time and frequency stations operated by N.I.S.T., and I would seize upon the opportunity to calibrate both my wrist watch and the dial on my receiver.
What will be the effect on world if oil is found short?
There will be escalation in price, and there will be long queues at filling stations. Rationing may have to be introduced. Different countries will struggle to get what they want. Let's hope it is not a cause of conflict, but I fear this is likely.
Is solar power or nuclear power better?
The 'power' that comes from a both nuclear and solar is the same - it's electricity. Nuclear power is quite clean while it is being produced (assuming nothing goes wrong with the plant), however getting rid of the harmful nuclear waste after it's use is an extremely difficult pollution problem. Solar power is 100% clean, and no harmful waste is caused after it's useful life. If you were to power a house with solar electricity, it can either be done by suplimenting the electricity needs at night with other green electicity (such as from a green energy supplier), or the electricity from the solar panels can be stored in solar batteries then power will be available day and night. Looking at the very short term problem, nuclear produces a lot of power and is clean (apart from after it's use). Looking at long term, and the need to reduce pollution and nuclear waste then more solar power is better. Nuclear and solar should work together - If more houses/buildings were powered by solar (and other green electicity) then it would mean reducing the need for quite as many nuclear power stations.
Who owns delta gas stations?
Short answer is Delta Oil and Gas does. Delta is a Panamanian company. They also own Coastal stations.
Which radio stations use am?
There are thousands of them, including all of the commercial broadcast stations between 550 and 1700 on your dial, as well as all of the short-wave "foreign broadcast" stations in the world.

How does startup BIOS communicate errors durig post if video is not yet available?

A business is unlikely to be able to secure startup capital from a venture capitalist without what?
The expectation of success in a short period of time
Where are some gas stations for charging electric cars and hybrid cars?
There are no refueling stations for electric cars, as none are in production this is not an issue. The range of an electric car is still too short to make them usable for most of the planet. Hybrids are normal gas powered autos that convert power to electric before it moves.
What is the frequency called that radio stations broadcasts from?
FM radio stations transmit on VHF band, short for "Very High Frequency", ranging from about 87 to 108 MHz.
What causes a brownout?
There are many causes of power failures in an electricity network. Examples of these causes include, faults at power stations, damage to power lines, substations or other parts of the distribution system, a short circuit, or the overloading of electricity mains.

Can fast blow fuse used in place of slow blow fuse?
No. A slow blow fuse is intended to survive a short overload from the startup of a piece of equipment, usually a motor or power supply. If you use a fast blow fuse in this application, it will tend to blow unexpectedly.Motors usually pull four times their rated running current on startup, but only for a very short period of time. The slow blow fuse, or slow trip circuit breaker, is designed to handle this. Similarly, power supplies need to charge the primary filter capacitor from zero voltage in one line cycle on startup. Worst case is turning on the power switch at the peak of the line cycle. Inductance of the transformer (if present) and dynamic resistance of the diode mitigates this, but there is still a larger than normal current transient. Again, the slow blow protective device allows this in the short term.Hy i'm GbRlEuEeN, i used f10a(fast) fuse to replace t5a fuse(slow) but was on audio sistem(subwoofer) and i will change back as soon il get the t5a. ( i tryed f5a first but blowed instant at power up.
