What is added to a circuit to make the current smaller?

The reduction of voltage or the increase of resistance will reduce the current in a circuit.


Matter being drawn out into wire?

Copper can be drawn into wire because its elastic strength is lower than its tensile strength. If it were the other way around the copper would be brittle and break from being drawn. To draw wire from copper it is usually annealed first (heated to reduce its elasticity) then drawn into rods through a thimble, then progressively drawn though smaller and smaller dies to reduce its diameter to the preferred gauge or size. As the copper is drawn through the dies it heats up from friction and actually needs to be cooled to prevent it from breaking, as this annealing actually reduces the tensile strength of the copper as well. *elastic strength is the strength of material that resists permanent deformation of the material. Tensile strength is the resistance to the material being pulled apart.


What will increase inductance?

in many ways..by adding coil,increasing frequency ,made coil smaller,inserting rods inside the coil,physical position adjustings..and so on.the fact is many factors are involving in inductions.


What is heavier a steel beam or concrete beam?

Steel is heavier than concrete for the same volume, however steel buildings are generally lighter. This is because steel buildings utilize high strength of steel, so volume of steel in steel buildings is much smaller than volume of concrete in concrete buildings. In another words in steel buildings much less volume of material is needed for the same strength compared to concrete buildings.


Is there anyway it increase the power out put of a motor?

The power output of a motor can be changed by the use of gears. Gears can be used to increase torque by reducing the speed of the output shaft by placing a large gear on the output shaft, coupled to a smaller gear. Conversely, by using a small gear on the output shaft, coupled to a larger gear, the speed can be increased with a reduction in torque.

What is the purpose of strength reduction factors and why they are smaller for columns than beams?

the purpose of strength reduction factor is used to take into account the uncertainties of material strength, inaccuracies in the design equations, approximations in analysis, possible variations in dimension's of the concrete section and placement of reinforced, the importance of member of structure of which they are part, an so on. Column is designed stronger than beam it means during strong earthquake column member remain elastic so it can provide stability and strength of the stories above.


Name two smaller arrays of 7x6 product?

There are no smaller arrays. If the number of rows is smaller then the number of columns is larger and, conversely, if the number of columns is smaller then the number of rows is larger.


What is size reduction?

What is the difference between reduction and deduction?

Reduction means making the object smaller, reducing the size of something. Deduction means taking something away, making the amount smaller.
