What are 5 types of AC power fluctuations?

Voltage sags: Temporary decrease in voltage below normal levels. Voltage swells: Temporary increase in voltage above normal levels. Voltage spikes: Quick, sharp increases in voltage. Voltage surges: Sudden increases in voltage lasting longer than spikes. Harmonic distortions: Non-linear loads causing frequency deviations from the main power supply.

Why is not feasible to operate bulbs a low voltages although it amount to high efficiency?

Lamps (not 'bulbs' ; we plant bulbs!) will only produce their rated power at their rated voltage. These values are printed on the glass envelope. Reducing the voltage applied to a lamp will, therefore, reduce the power it produces. In fact, there's not a simple, linear, relationship between a lamp's voltage and its power, and this means that even small reductions in voltage will result in large reductions in power.Operating lamps, or any devices, come to than, at lower voltages really has nothing to do with efficiency. Certainly, operating a lamp below its rated voltage will most-certainly NOT result in high efficiency. Efficiency is defined as the ratio of output power to input power and has nothing to do with voltage.


What triggers the action potential?

A temporary accumulation of sodium ions at the axon hillock which yields a voltage sufficient to open voltage-gated ion pores on the axon is what triggers an action potential.

Why do the lights dim when an appliance turns on?

When an appliance turns on, it draws more electricity from the circuit, causing a temporary drop in voltage. This drop in voltage can cause the lights to dim briefly before returning to normal brightness.
