How do you record a video on an acer laptop?
Ok well first your going to need a webcam I'd suggest looking on:
Amazon.co.UK
eBay.co.UK
For any Webcams you need.
Once you've got the Webcam/Camara look through the box and find the Drivers CD (Which will be like the only CD in the Box, Once you've found it put it into the PC and install the drivers (Its just like any other installation) Once that's done plug your Webcam into the PC via a USB port and then open the Software you installed (when you installed the drivers it probebly came with Filming software to)
Now open that software and from there you should be able to find the Record button.
I've just had a look at Acer's website, If you've got one of the new laptops that come with webcams then you need to look through the box the laptop came with and find the Drivers for the Webcam, Install it and there we go, Should be simple from there.
Non-ideal properties for op-amp.?
limited band width and very low amplification factor, to begin with hi voltage and current offset
How do you burn a CD to play in a regular CD player?
Use windows media player or winamp:
In widows media player click on the "Burn" tab then drag the songs over on to the side bar that popped up then hit burn.
In winamp select the songs by holding down the "ctrl" key and select the songs you want the right click on them and go to where it says "send to" and after it expands click "cd burner on E:" (or whatever your drive name is).

A teen sim cannot have a baby, but they can woohoo. I think they can accidently get pregnant, but im not sure.
Why do credit cards have a magnetic stripe on the back?
So you can use them. Otherwise they are nothing but peices of plastic.
That's what the card scanner 'reads'. It contains the bank's identification and your account number, etc.
What does pollution degree for a light dimmer mean?
Pollution Degree 1: No pollution or only dry, nonconductive pollution occurs. The pollution has no effect.
Pollution Degree 2: Normally only nonconductive pollution occurs. Temporary conductivity caused by condensation is to be expected.
Pollution Degree 3: Conductive pollution or dry nonconductive pollution that becomes conductive due to condensation occurs. To be found in industrial environment or construction sites (harsh environments).
Pollution Degree 4: The pollution generates persistent conductivity caused by conductive dust, rain, or snow.
How do you test the output of a household AC electrical power adaptor?
First, always read the label on the power adaptor to find out what voltage it has been designed to supply.
You can use a volt meter or a 12v light bulb to check if the power adaptor is working but don't do this unless you are certain that the output voltage really is a low as that!
If you don't check the label first you could damage the volt meter or the bulb and/or give yourself a dangerous shock.
Another more technical answerFirstly, using a voltmeter to check that the output voltage is as specified on the label. An unregulated power adapter will usually have an output voltage somewhat higher than the voltage specified when measured using the meter alone, but will drop to nearer the required voltage when measured under a significant load. A regulated power adapter should give a fairly constant voltage reading when tested with or without a load applied. Second, using an oscilloscope to see if there is any significant "ripple" in the output voltage, the presence of which would indicate a faulty smoothing capacitor inside the adapter.The Maximum Transferable Unit (MTU) is the amount of data that can be sent in each packet on a TCP/IP based network.
If your network is the postal service (routing and delivering messages to and from other people), the MTU is how big the envelopes are.
When you want to clean pliers, make sure that you have oil (not cooking oil), rag and the pliers that you are cleaning. You may want to work above a piece of newspaper.
Then open the pliers and put oil at the top, sides and front. Wait for five minutes and clean with sand paper.
Answer There is nothing wrong with using cooking oil for lubing tools if you have to -it's better than nothing.
How do you convert 220v 50Hz amplifier to 110v 60Hz?
You will have to either plug in a voltage converter to drop the voltage from 220 to 110 or rewire the main power supply inside the amplifier (if this is possible). Most electronic equipment will run on either 50Hz or 60Hz power cycles, so there is no conversion necessary for the frequency.
What does a circuit consist on?
It consists of a source of power, conductors to bring the power from the positive pole to the negative pole, and something for the power to do along the way. This can be anything from a battery, two wires and a light bulb to a computer.
What are the four listening skills?
Attending Listening
Encourage Listening
Reflecting Listening
Active Listening
How is salt a renewable resource?
it's renewable, because it is produced at a faster or same rate as it is consumed!
