What is the philosophy of heraclitus?

Heraclitus believed that change is constant and that everything is in a state of flux. He is known for his principle of "panta rhei" (everything flows), emphasizing the impermanence of all things and the interconnectedness of opposites. Heraclitus also introduced the concept of the Logos, an underlying order or reason that governs the universe.


Is there energy present in all things?

Yes, there is energy present in all things.


Is Heraclitus a rationalist?

Heraclitus is often considered a philosopher who emphasized the role of change and flux in the world, rather than a strict rationalist. His famous dictum "you cannot step into the same river twice" captures his belief in the ceaseless flow of the universe. While he valued reason and logic, his philosophy is more focused on the idea of unity and the interconnectedness of all things.


What is the philosophy of traditional Chinese medicine?

Traditional Chinese medicine believes in the balance of yin and yang energies within the body, as well as the flow of Qi (life force) through meridians. It aims to restore harmony and balance in the body by using herbal medicine, acupuncture, massage, and other techniques. TCM focuses on treating the root cause of illness rather than just the symptoms.


How did Parmenides' philosophy challenge traditional beliefs about change?

Parmenides' philosophy challenged traditional beliefs about change by arguing that change is an illusion and that reality is unchanging and indivisible. This contradicted the common belief that the world is constantly in flux and that things can undergo real change.

Do all electrodes have a coating called flux?

No not all electodes have a flux, in some cases such as certain M.I.G welding the electrode resemble bare wire because it has no flux?


What is a flux when making things?

Flux is any material used to aid in the purification of smelted metals and cleaning or joining of metal in welding. it is a Metallurgy term.


Is mutual flux in transformer constant for all loads?

The flux is set by the voltage applied to the transformer. In most applications, the voltage is constant, and therefore the flux is constant also.


What are fluxes and fluxing agents in analytical chemistry?

A flux or fluxing agent is a source that bonds things together. When soldering wires, a flux is used as a glue that helps the wires melt and stick together. Flux is made of an adhesive and a petroleum jelly.


In transformer core flux depends on voltage whereas leakage flux depends on current?

In a Transformer, Core flux is the difference of primary flux and Secondary flux which are opposite to each other in direction. There difference is equal to the no load flux at all loads. So, some of primary flux passes through the core and remaining becomes leakage flux (Because Secondary flux forces it to get out of the core). Same is the case with Secondary flux. Now, flux is directly proportional to Voltage and Current. When Current increases due to increased load (and voltage remains same): Then both primary and secondary flux increase. Because both of them increase, so there difference remains same. And all remaining flux is forced out. Hence leakage flux increases with current, but Core flux remains constant. When Primary Voltage is increased: Then only primary flux increases. So difference of this new increased primary flux and previous same secondary flux increases. Hence Core flux increases with voltage, But leakage flux does not. That's how In transformer core flux depends on voltage whereas leakage flux depends on current.


Does the flux changes due to change in the load in a transformer?

Yes, the two things that chage the number of flux lines in a transformer(electromagnet) are the number of turns in the windings and the amount of current flow


Difference between flux linkage and flux leakage?

i) leakage flux is those flux which goes through the air and linkage flux is those flux whose go through the cell. ii)leakage flux is the loss at flux but linkage flu is warning flux. iii)leakage flux is cause of eddy current loss and linkage flux is case of copper loss.


What is leakage factor?

The Ratio of the total flux ( flux in iron path) to the useful flux (flux in air gap)


What is welding flux?

The term flux means to clean. Not all welding processes use a flux. Stick welding electrodes contain fluxing agents. MIG hard wire doesn't but flux-cored MIG wire does. TIG does not as the rods are bare. Most brazing applications require flux. Gas welding usually doesn't except for certain metals.
