What is a sentence with the word extention?
I need an extension cord for my radio, because its cord is not long enough.
Does a long extension cord draw more power than a short extension cord?
No. However, a longer extension cord has higher resistance for a given wire gauge or size compared to a short extension cord and the voltage at the load device may drop so low that it doesn't work properly. This may also be accompanied by a noticeable rise in the temperature of the extension cord. As a rule, use the shortest extension cord that will get the job done. If the extension cord must be long, use one that has heavy gauge wire to minimize voltage drop at the load.
I have a pop up camper and I am wanting to use an extension cord when the campers cord isn't long enough. The campers electrical system is 30amp and 110volt. Can I use a 13amp 125volt extension cord?
no, you should use same amp and volt.
Can a microwave be plugged into an extension cord?
Yes, as long as the extension cord is rated for the load. Most microwave ovens use 1000W or more, some less. A standard two wire extension cord would be unsafe. There are, however, extension cords which have the proper gauge of wire and the necessary 3-prong outlets which a microwave would need to operate safely.

An incandescent lamp connected to 120 voltage source with a short extension cord provides more illumination than the same lamp connected to the same source with a very long extension cord?
A: absolutely not lamps needs current a long cord introduce IXR drop making less current for the lamp to use it
What kind of sentence can you put extension in?
Extension: A part added to something to enlarge or prolong it; a continuation The action or process of becoming or making something larger. The barn is in the process of having an extension for the horses added to the side. The power cord was not long enough to reach the playhouse so father got an extension cord for me.
Is it harmful to plug an extension cord into another on identical to it?
Not in general. You can buy extension cords in a variety of lengths. However, the longer the cord the more the resistance and the bigger the voltage drop across the length of the cord. If you were using the cord outdoors and the junction was on the ground it is possible for moisture to cause a short at the junction.
Why did Atticus Need the extension cord in to kill a mockingbird?
In To Kill a Mockingbird, Atticus Finch takes an extension cord and light bulb down to the jail and sits outside by the light of that bulb reading a newspaper at night.
