Give an advantage of email over voice mail?

You can print emails and store them in document form in case they are needed later.

In the case of language barriers, or unclear speech, correspondence can insure a clearer understanding of the subject.

It's common business practice/etiquette to follow up important communications with an email which can work as a transcription.

What is a LDR used for?

An LDR (light-dependent resistor) is a particular type of semiconductor (A material with a conduction rating in between that of a conductor and an insulator i.e. electricity flows through a semiconductor slower than through a conductor, but quicker than through an insulator).

Consider an atom as made up of just a nucleus with bound electrons. These electrons require varying amounts of energy to 'escape' from the atom. The semiconductor, as all known matter, is made up of atoms.

Light can currently be explained as being made up of packets of waves called photons where the frequency of these waves determines how much energy they are associated with (Energy = h * frequency: where h is a constant).

Therefore, if light associated with enough energy strikes the semiconductor, then the electrons requiring the equivalent energy to break the bonds will escape.

Electricity is concerned with a flow of electrons, therefore electrons escaping means there is an increase in electrical current.

This increased electrical current is equivalent to a drop in resistance and thus fluctuation in particular frequencies of light affects the resistance of the semiconductor.

How many songs can a 16 gig ipod hold?

8GB of volume are roughly 8000MB of disk space. An average song takes up 3.5MB of disk space so you could most assuredly fit in over 2200 songs into an 8GB mp3 player easily enough. 8GB of volume are roughly 8000MB of disk space.

What did Ada Byron do in computering?

Ada Lovelace was the illegitimate daughter of the poet Lord Byron. She married the Count of Lovelace, making her a "Lady" and the Countess of Lovelace.

She became a mathematician and worked with Charles Babbage, the developer of the Analytic Engine (mechanical computer). She wrote a text on the development of instructions for the engine even though Babbage would not publish his ideas until years later. The Analytic Engine was never built until recently.

She was therefore , in a way, the first computer programmer, inventor of the subroutine and a proponent of looping.

Her role in the development of the Difference Engine is not clear. She is often credited with logic involved in its operation if not its construction. Evidence does support her suggestion for the transfer of the existing punch card system of the Jacquard loom as a method of entering data and controlling the devices operation if it were to be built.

How technology effects education?

Classrooms no longer have to be in a building in a school. Students can now take classes at schools around the country and world without actually having to attend in person. This has given students the ability to reach more goals. Those who want to go back to school are no longer limited to local universities and colleges but now can choose from a broad range of programs. This lack of limitations is making it easier for people to get the education they need. It opens them up to possibilities they might not have had otherwise.

The ability to earn your degree online has made it possible for people with other commitments to still get the education they want and need. This technology has made it possible for them to take classes and complete

them on their own time fitting it into their schedule. They are able to design a course load that allows them to care for their family and even work a full time job and still get the education they are looking for. For many,

making the decision of what school to attend is the hardest part of the process. Taking the time to visit earnmydegree.com could prove to be very helpful in your decision making process.

Does a mainframe computer process faster than microcomputer?

There is a big difference between a personal computer and a mainframe. A personal computer is what you're probably use to; a computer that lets you access the internet, run programs, edit documents, etc. A mainframe, on the other hand, is a much more powerful computer that is usually connected to a network. This kind of computer provides services for other computers on the network. It may store files, manage access to network resources like printers, or perform heavy-duty computational tasks. Since mainframes are usually accessed over a network, they do not usually need a keyboard, mouse, or screen of their own.

What is the difference between moving and the duplicating text?

If you copy, you still have the original text and now have a new copy that you may want to put somewhere else. You would use Copy and Paste for this. If you move text, you still only have one version of the text, but it is now in a new location. For this you would use Cut and Paste.

How wireless computing operates?

Your computer has a built-in wireless adapter. That will be used to connect to the internet wirelessly. The adapter will connect to an access-point, a device called a "wireless router." It works by exchanging data back and forth and communicating with the wireless router. This is how your computer access the internet.

How do you get digital reception by antenna with a digital TV?

I get a perfect picture on TV using an antenna. Can not get digital signal to come thru when using either a converter box or a new digital TV. I have following all the instructions carefully and can get no signal for digital. The antenna is new and hooked up correctly. Get perfect analog pictures. Why can't I get a digital picture?

DTV signals are for the most part weaker than the old analog signals. Your new antenna needs to be a high gain VHF/UHF type with a built in or add on amplifier at the antenna. Don't forget to use new coax cable between the antenna amp and the TV set. Be sure the antenna is pointed directly at the transmitters, many have been moved. Sometime a rotor is a great help if the transmitters are in different direction's. If you using splitters, etc, they might need to be replaced with ones that will pass UHF (900 MHz) signals.

What is the most technologically advanced nation?

Opinion: This is shared between China(who doesn't release their technology and the commoners there know little about it), Japan(who happily sells it to America-mostly relating robots, other automatons, and video games), and America(who buys it from the other two countries and either expands on it, or invents the basis for it).

1. United States of America

2. Russia

3. China

4. United Kingdom

5. Japan

I think it's:

1 Japan

2 US of America

3 Russia

4 Germany

5 China

6 Israel
