Why does the chord of an electric heater not glow while the heating element does?
Wiki User

The element is made of special high resistance wire so the power is dissipated in the element rather than the low resistance cord.
Power(watts) = Resistance (ohms) X {Current(amperes)}squared

What are the two types of stress a truss member can experience?
Compression or tension, the top chord will always experience compression and the bottom chord will always experience tension. The other members can experience either.

How do you calculate developed length of sheet metal forming?
ON the cad offset the bend radius from the internal radius of the sheet metal part by 40% of the total sheet thickness,and measure the chord length of the radius. that will be the developed length.
What is the definition for the word Pitched truss or common truss?
Single pitch truss is used for example in storage buildings, machine shelters and in residential buildings. Single pitch truss roof enables directing the snow away from passageways. Width of the truss bottom chord can be maximum 20 meters.
Is tension boomilever stronger than compression boomilevers?
Yes. This is because the strength of wood when compressed, decreases per length unit the longer the piece of wood is. However, wood holds the same strength in tension no matter the length. In the compression boomilever, the compression chord is longer than in the tension boomilever.
How do you make a device that converts electrical energy into heat energy?
Simply cause an electric current to flow through a circuit element with resistance. Theoretically, all circuit elements, including wires have resistance, so every electric circuit makes heat. In practical terms, a circuit element can be introduced that has much higher resistance than the wire, called a resistor, so a large majority of the heat is created in this element. For example, in an incandescent light bulb, a toaster, and some electric space heaters, the resistor is a wire made of a different metal and diameter than the other wires in the circuit, so heat is made in this wire and not (significantly) in the power chord that goes to the wall and other the other wires and the switch that connect the chord to the heating element.
Where is a block heater cord located on a 2004 Suburban?
First off, the block heater is an option, yours might not even have one. My 2002 Chevy had a block heater, and the chord was right next to the battery.

How do you play Jingle Bells on the electric guitar?
Assuming you will begin using open chords, the simplest way would be to start with the E chord, "Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way..." A chord, "Oh, what fun it..." E chord, "is to ride on a..." G Chord, "One horse open sleigh..." repeat this throughout the song, it is not difficult to figure out. Alternatively, you could use A to D to E the same way.
If a radius of a circle intersects a chord then it bisects that chord?
If radius of a circle intersects a chord then it bisects the chord only if radius is perpendicular to the chord.
If a radius of a circle is perpendicular to a chord at what point does it intersect the chord?
The radius of the circle that is perpendicular to a chord intersects the chord at its midpoint, so it is said to bisect the chord.
What is a Non-traditional sound created by playing G on the 6th string and C or D on the 5th string of an electric guitar called?

Why can a chord be a diameter?
because the chord can be determine by the diameter and the diameter can be determine by the chord.
