How does a grist mill work?

A grist mill is used to create corn meal or flour. It is usually powered by a water wheel, or sometimes an animal does the work. The wheel is then connected to two stone cylinders. Wheat or corn is put between the cylinders and, as the wheel turns, it is ground until flour is created.

The unit of current in which 6240000000000000000 electrons flow past a given point in a circuit in one second is the?

The amount of current is measured in units called

amperes or amps. One ampere of current is equal to the charge

of 6,240,000,000,000,000,000 electrons flowing past a given point

in a circuit per second

Its in the Penn Foster Book.

Why making capacity is more than breaking capacity in circuit breakers and contactors?

Making capacity is the max fault current it can carry during closing of breaker, e.g. You are closing a breaker on fault. The making capacity is always higher because it is expressed in peak value not rms, and also because of the DC offset, voltage and PF while closing

Why is bolting process preferred over welding process for site connection work?

In any application, bolting is preferred over welding if the setup needs to be taken apart, adjusted, or done quick and cheap. Also, it may be easier to drill a hole and screw something together, instead of hook up a generator, transport a welder to the site and risk a flammable tank being in the area.

How much fuel does a large diesel cargo ship burn at cruising speed with a full load of container and what would that cruising speed be?

The Wartsila-Sulzer RTA96-C turbocharged 14 cylinder two-stroke diesel engine is the

most powerful and most efficient prime-mover in the world today. The Aioi Works of

Japan's Diesel United, Ltd built the first engines.

At maximum economy the engine exceeds 50% thermal efficiency. Even at its most

efficient power setting, the big 14 consumes 1,660 gallons of heavy fuel oil per hour.

Geometry and Real Life?

geometry in real life as the statement seems is just simply geometry in real life if we observe carefully in our everyday surrondings such as the shape of trees ,cars ,houses and even our own human body we can observe geometry for eg. most houses are rectangular in shape etc.

Who is responsible for establishing measurement standards that are used by engineers and manufacturers today?

The National Assemby of France requested that the French Academy of Science invent an accurate, standard system of weights and measure in 1790 A.D. The system they created was simple and scientific and was adopted by the french in 1795 A.D. This of course is the metric system which is still used today.

How do you fix the keypad of a water damaged Motorola V3 mobile phone?

Is AutoCAD used in engineering?

Yes, AutoCAD is used in many engineering fields to create drawings and plans.

Does technology itself create technology?

No, people create technologies to meet needs and wants from known natural phenomena.

However technologies facilitate the creation of more technologies as well as more advanced technologies, as they provide better tools for manipulating and controlling natural phenomena as well as assisting scientists in discovering and characterizing previously unknown natural phenomena that might be usable in the creation of otherwise previously impossible technologies.

Why should you use a current probe with a multimeter whenever you need to?

get into tight places,measure high-magnitude currents,monitor currents at a remote location,open a circuit

What is a technological structure?

structures that have been copied by natural structures or objects. ex. The hexagonal honeycomb found in nature is an efficient structure for containing and supporting honey. Humans copied it to make a rigid structure which can make aircraft skins, lightweight doors, and packaging. A spider's web was copied to make a fishing net

What technology allows workers to produce a drill long enough to reach oil?

The drilling pipe comes in sections and they periodically stop drilling to add another section. This way they can drill to almost any depth desired.

What gear ratio would you use to get enough torque and speed to achieve that fastest time?

The gear ratio for top gear is chosen to produce maximum speed, which occurs at a speed where the engine's maximum power is take up with maintaining a constant speed (on the level). For cars the overall ratio for top gear is 3.5 to 4.5 : 1.

For example, if the engine's maximum power is 100 bhp at 6300 rpm, and that power can drive the car at the maximum speed of 110 mph, the overall ratio is chosen to give 6300 rpm at 110 mph.
