How a Pool 2 speed motor works?

There is an annulus between the two poles that creates a hierachical relationship over the phase of the input. When one is excited, it spins at one speed. When the other is excited, it spins at another. It's pretty simple physics. Not much different then riding a bicycle. Hope this helps, and good luck.

What is hierachical inheritance in java?

A Scenario where one class is inheriting/extending the bahavior of another class which in turn is inheriting behavior from yet another class. Ex: public class Automobile {…} Public class Car extends Automobile {…} Public class Ferrari extends Car {…} This multilevel inheritance actually has no limitations on the number of levels it can go. So as far as java goes, it is limitless. But for maintenance and ease of use sakes it is better to keep the inheritance levels to a single digit number.


What can hierachical diffusion help?

Hierarchical diffusion can help in the spread of innovations, trends, or cultural practices through a structured network where ideas flow from higher or influential social levels to lower ones. This process allows for the rapid adoption of new concepts among key decision-makers or trendsetters, who then influence wider populations. It can facilitate targeted marketing strategies, enhance public health campaigns, and improve the dissemination of educational materials. Ultimately, hierarchical diffusion can lead to more efficient and effective implementation of new ideas within communities.


What is the difference between a repository and a database?

The Metasafe Repository is a (DMBS) Database Management System. There are many types of DMBS with different core models: Oracles, SQLServer, MySQL are based on the "relational model" which is constructed from tables. IMS the database from IBM is based on a hierachical model. Etc. Metasafe is based on an entity-relationship model, which means that is handles "entities" and "relationships between entities". This is the difference. What do they have in common? A (proper) database can be used by many users in parallel. It guarantees that a set of changes (a transaction) is processed completely or not all to make sure that the database is allways in a consistent state. A DMBS has also an access language (in case of Metasafe erSQL) and an API to access the data in the database. Last update on 04.11.2011 by Patrick Landolt.
