Why are symmetrical faults more severe than unsymmetrical faults?

In power engineering, specifically three-phase power, a symmetric, symmetrical or balanced fault is a fault which affects each of the three-phases equally.In power engineering, specifically three phase power, an asymmetricor unbalanced fault is a fault which does not affect each of the three phases equally.
for these reasons thus symmetrical faults are more severe than the former.

Why is a cold front thunderstorm usually more severe than a warm front thunderstorm?
A cold front is more severe because it is steeper.
What is unsymmetrical dimethylhydrazine?
Dimethylhydrazine (DMH) has the chemical formula C2H8N2, but that's only part of the story, as you might have guessed. There is a symmetrical and an unsymmetrical "version" of this chemical compound. Let's start with the middle of the compound: N-N That's the pair of nitrogen atoms with a single bond between them. Now we have to deal with the pair of bonds on each nitrogen atom. There is a CH3 and a CH3 and H and H to add to the "mix" here. It's simple from here on out. In UDMH, unsymmetrical dimethylhydrazine (1,1 dimethylhydrazine), the H and the H are bonded to the "end" of one nitrogen atom, and the CH3 and the CH3 are bonded to the "end" of the other nitrogen atom. It's unsymmetrical because the H's are both on one end, and the CH3's are both on the other end. It might look something like this: HH N-N CH3CH3 The unsymmetrical dimethylhydrazine finds use as a component of rocket fuel. But you have to keep this stuff capped to isolate it from air 'cause it likes to take up the moisture in it, and the O2 and CO2 as well. These dilute its effectiveness as a propellant. It's fairly stable, and cannot be set off by shock, but it's volitile, as you might have guessed. In symmetrical dimethylhydrazine (1,2 dimethylhydrazine), H and CH3 are on one outside, and CH3 and H are on the other outside. Note that the H's and the CH3's are on opposite "corners" of the molecule. If you look at the thing, it might look like this: CH3H N-N HCH3 This particularly nasty compound is a powerful carcinogen, and it is used to induce tumors in animals for research purposes. UDMH has roots in hydrazine (N2H4), which has been known for quite a while (since the late 1800's). It was incorporated in the earliest rocket fuels, but UDMH rapidly replaced it for the most part. It is certain that the Natzi war machine used it, and the Me 163 Komet is an example of a user of hydrazine fuel. UDMH might be viewed as at "take off" from hydrazine.

Why do some areas of the world have more earthquakes than others?
they have more earthquakes in other people depending on the faults and plates around the world.
Why earthquakes often occur at the tectonic plate boundaries?
Earthquakes occur along faults, where two blocks for rock move against one another. The blocks snag on one another, build up stress, and then release it as an earthquake. Most active faults are found at or near plate boundaries, where two large segments of the crust move past each other. The relatively large amount of movement and stress compared to intraplate settings means there are more and larger faults, which leads to more frequent and stronger earthquakes.
Does a severe thunderstorm warning occur a tornado?
Most severe thunderstorms do not produce tornadoes. If a tornado is detected or it is believed a storm might produce one a tornado warning is issued, which is more serious than a severe thunderstorm warning. A thunderstorm that produces a tornado is automatically classified as severe even if other severe weather (damaging non-tornadic wind or large hail) does not occur.
Why does an unsymmetrical wing have more lift than an symmetrical wing at zero angle of attack?
Bernoulli's theorem
Are all faces symmertical?
For the most part faces are symmetrical, but not perfectly. In fact, research shows that the more symmetrical a persons face is, the more attractive they are.
Why do more advanced fish have symmetrical tail fins?
Fish have a symmetrical tail, because they are a more advanced species. Sharks are less advanced because they are always moving!
How do you make your nose more symmetrical?
Plastic surgery or you can make the appearance of a slimmer nose with make-up. But a symmetrical nose is not in anyway necessarily a more attractive nose.
Where 2 or more lines cross other in a symmetrical shape?
Vertices.
What are the advantages to bilateral symmetry?
those animals which are bilateral symmetrical are triploblastic and triploblasts are more successful and diplobalsts(radial symmetrical) due to their complex body organization
What is the comparative degree of severe?
more extreme
What is a bond that is unsymmetrical yet it shares electrons?
This is a Polar covalent bond, where because if the atom in the bond are electronegatively different, the electron mass is polarized toward the more electronegative.
Worms are bilaterally symmetrical?
Yes worms are bilaterally symmetrical. Because they crawl or swim in one direction, they have different needs. Bilateral symmetry allows animals to be more active in the pursuit of prey and to develop more sophisticated behaviors than those of radially symmetrical animals.
Why isn't ammonia symmetrical?
Ooh. This is fun. Ammonia's formula is NH3. There's 8 valence electrons to mess with. 6 for each H. So that makes a trigonal planar. But that leaves us with 2 extra electrons. Those get bonded too, so that makes a tetrahedral. But since the 4th bond is only electrons, that is called a trigonal pyramidal. Long story short, being symmetrical would mean that Ammonia is unpolar. (and it isn't.) Those 2 extra electrons make one side of the molecule more negative than the other, so it repels the electrons on the 3 H's, so it's unsymmetrical. (and polar.)
What are the elements that will make us attractive to another person?
The more symmetrical your face is, the more attractive people think you are.
Why do asymmetrical letters appear to get flipped more than symmetrical letters?
asymmetrical letters appear filpped because they dont look the same where as symmetrical letter looks same on both sides.
