Can a CD player damage a CD?

A properly operating CD player will not damage a CD because there is no physical contact with the disc except in the center, where no music is stored, however a defective player can damage the disc if the alignment is off causing the disc to touch the internal components of the player.

Can a transistor short circuit?

Yes from over current from power surges, over driving by the user in case of amplifiers, or other component failure around the transistor. Also overheating can cause transistor failure from poor ventilation or loos heatsink.

What is the difference between SCART and AV sockets on televisions?

A scart connector is found in many European televisions and players. It is a multi-pin connector that carries video and audio signals as well as some control signals. The video signal can be composite, S-video, RGB or component and is decided by the output or input device. The control signals allow a television to detect when a player or receiver is active and can switch to the right input automatically. In later equipment, infra red signals can also be carried from one device to another using the control cables. Some connectors also allow signals to be carried in both directions.

AV connectors carry the same signals but normally with a single connector per signal. For example, three connectors are needed for composite video, left audio and right audio. Although the signals are identical to those used in a scart connector, wiring is more complex. Automatic input switching is not a feature of separate AV connections.


The scart connector made equipment connections very easy but the quality of connection tends to be poor compared to individual connectors. They are known for pulling out of sockets due to the weight of cable attached to the connector. Scarts are now becoming rare as HDMI interfaces are becoming the standard for player to television links.

How do you test a relay with a 9v battery?

You can test a relay with and without a 9 volt battery. If you apply 9 volts to it and it's sufficient to turn on the relay, the NO switch will close and then have continuity with common. If you don't apply voltage, the NO switch will be open and not have continuity with common. You can use these continuity and resistance checks to test a relay to see if it works.

What are the advantages and disadvantages of Blender?

what is the adavatage and disadvantage of the blender

What are milabytes?

How do you flip the front camera on my tablet?

To flip the front camera on your tablet simply tap on the front camera twice.

What wire gauge used for headphones?

The wire gauge in thin headphone cables is quite small. I have read of people rewiring their headphones using 12 Gauge wire. There are commercial cables that use 11 gauge. The thicker the wire the less the resistance up to a point. Many headphones use 22 or 24 gauge and it seems to work OK.

What is the pest analysis of Samsung electronics?

The PESTLE analysis of Samsung electronics is that Samsung is expanding its global footprint. They are a competitive company that is advancing environmentally and technologically.

What are the disadvantage of pipeline transport?

One of the disadvantages of pipeline transport is that a small leak can be disastrous, such as the one in Kenya that killed many people and made others homeless. Leaks can be harder to spot because pipelines run through wilderness areas.

What does RAVC mean on an electronic credit made by DFAS?

RAVC is a code used in the master military pay account and it relates to travel payments. If you see this code in a deposit from DFAS after you separate it's your travel claim money for moving. ka-ching!

Who makes super start batteries?

Super Start batteries are an in house brand of Oreilly Auto Parts. They are their own brand.

What does a polarised component mean in electronics?

it means that a component can only be installed one way, the wires should not be reversed. Polarized plugs on some appliances have one blade wider than the other so it can be inserted only one way. Some components have one wire longer than the other to indicate polarity. Some are marked with the correct polarity.

Why is a brushless motor better then a brushed motor in the RC world?

Due to the improved performance and light weight to thrust ratio, brushless motors have made greatly improved the performance of RC models. Old style brushed motors have contact points that rub together in order to conduct the current to the stator. Needles to say, these parts rubbing together is an inefficient way to run an electric motor. Brushless motors use a special speed control that rotate the current directly to the stator, eliminating brushes. This direct link to the stator also produces more electric current to be effeciently supplied to the motor and greatly increases the power and performance. RC planes with brushless motors, in addition to the advances of Lipo batteries, when used as directed, can now achieve the vertical performance once only available in gas RC planes.

What are some tips when buying converter electronics?

Research the country that you are visiting. You will need to the voltage for the country and the pattern of the outlet. Using the wrong voltage can damage the device being used and the wrong pattern will not fit the socket.

How do you ask a question on your phone?

You can ask a question on your phone by simply going to the site in which you want to ask a question and then you click on the ask question button and then you post your question.

What is the ideal humidity for electronics?

The `ideal' humidity would be very low, simply because humidity lends itself to corrosion of the circuit boards and connectors. When humidity reaches a higher level, items such as rusting of any of the steel components, corrosion of the circuit boards and connections tend to deteriorate.

So unless you're in a sealed chamber where humidity can be controlled, you might want to consider things like room dehumidifiers or even central air conditioning in the summer to help control the humidity levels. In the winter months, humidity tens to be less in the colder climates and that's part of the reason that humidifiers are installed on furnace systems among other things. Humidity control is more for `creature comfort' than anything else.

But this leads to another problem, which is static electricity when the humidity is too low.That too, can be bad for circuit boards because a static discharge can reach potentials of several thousand volts.

According to CompTIA A+, a safe humidity is between 50 and 80 percent.
