When making vhf radio calls to nearby stations what level of transmitting power should you use?
Low power of course. You are NEAR the other station, why would you use "high" power?
Why did pirate radio stations begin to spring up?
Because large corporations made most radio stations use similar
What do broadcasting stations use to send their signals around the world?
Broadcasting stations use television satellites to send their signals around the world.
What type of fuel is used in model rocketry?
There are two main types of fuel: solid fuel and liquid fuel. Rocket fuel most use both a fuel and an oxidizer. The solid fuel in most modern rockets uses aluminum powder as fuel, ammonium perchlorate as an oxidizer, and iron oxide as a catalyst. Liquid fuel uses liquid hydrogen as fuel and liquid oxygen as an oxidizer.
Which consumes high power between FM and AM radio system?
-- For the same amount of radiated RF power, AM transmitters use more primary (utility) power, because the modulation must be applied to the final output stage, requiring high audio power. -- Commercial FM stations will typically radiate more RF power than AM stations, because of the relatively higher free space attenuation at the higher frequency of the commercial FM band ... they need more power to cover the same size 'market' area. But that's the result of their spot on the radio dial, not their modulation technique.
What type of power stations do not use chemical energy?
Fossil-fuel power stations, hydroelectric power stations and nuclear power stations.
What do nuclear power stations use for fuel?
Uranium fuel.
What do nuclear power stations use as fuel?
Predominantly enriched uranium, but some reactors can use natural uranium.
Why does Singapore use fuel power stations to generate electrical energy?
It lasts longer. and the electricity is from the enviroment.
What are two things that burn fossil fuel?
Power stations and auto mobiles are two things that use fossil fuels.
Do power stations use heat to generate electricity?
Yes most power stations do use heat to generate electricity. Heat energy of the fuel (e.g. burning coal, burning oil, nuclear fission) is utilized to heat water present in the boiler. This heating generates steam, which is then utilized to run the turbine. However some power stations get the energy to generate electricity without using heat (e.g. hydroelectric dams, wind power, sea wave power, solar cell generation systems).
Do power stations use petrol?
no
Who uses peat?
Peat is a fuel that is used in some countries. It is very commonly used in Ireland, where it is known as turf. People use it for fires in their homes and some power stations use it as a fuel to generate electricity.
What are some different configurations of power stations?
Power Stations have the same principle of working and that is the use of combined cycles for several heating systems. The power stations can use a gas combined cycle or a solar cycle.
Which resources do coal power stations use?
Coal power stations use many different resources as a steam kettle, electrity and turbines.
What kind of steam engines are used in power stations?
Coal fired steam driven power stations are still in use
How do you use natural gas as energy?
It can be burned in gas cookers, or gas fires or used in power stations to fuel turbines which drive alternators to make electricity.
