What does it take to get and Engineering degree if you already have a 4 year chemistry degree?
The exact answer depends on the program and the school, but if you already have a BS degree then you usually need to complete those courses in the engineering degree that you don't have from the chemistry degree.
Since the degree means you have completed your 'general education' requirements, the classes you would take would be the ones specifically for the engineering degree (i.e. in engineering). The other course work would have already been counted.
Do you save money by turning down the heat from 72 to 69?
oooooooooh yes, get a sweater and turn it down to 65 like mine it is so nice. Males like it cold and females like it warm. do u know why?...TOUGH LOVE LARRY
===================
Scooter, your response is emotional and impressionistic. The facts you are referring to are "Temperature Differentials"
If the temperature outside is 10 F and you have your thermostat set at 70 F, your furnace is overcoming a temperature differential of 60 degrees, right? If you dial down to 68, you have changed the differential by 2 F or 1/30th. If you gas bill is $150.00/monthly, you save 1/30th or $5.00. If you subtract the time you are at work and sleeping and only crank the heat up during the time you are around the house and the savings are reduced even more. I don't feel that it is a good purchase to be cold in my own home all month, (30 days of shivering) to save $5.00 or $3.00. I think it is misleading to project that their is big savings to be had by dialing down and selling out your own personal comfort without analyzing and quantifying those savings. Sooooooo, crank it up and be comfortable. Who are you saving it for?
If you want to hit the jackpot of heat energy savings, spend a few dollars taking care of the 500lb Gorilla of heat loss, air infiltration! Tiny gaps around windows, doors, foundations, electrical outlets, bath fans and heat ducts, just to name a few, can keep the heat you are paying for where it needs to be.
Would you like to talk about how much you could save with improved insulation and geo-thermal heat systems? This is where the real money is at! Send me a note.

Purpose of an engineering bench vice?
The purpose of an engineering vise to clamp and hold an object in order to work with it. Most vises are permanently mounted on a work table.
What is called degradation of signal over network cable?
It means that, as the signal travels over the wire, it will (a) get weaker, and (b) the signal for the individual bits will "spread out" until they overlap with the neighboring bits.

Did the steam engine cause global warming?
It didnt cause it but it sure did help. The burning of coal and other fossil fuels are major causes of global warming by release immense amounts of carbon dioxide and nitrous oxide into the atmosphere.
The RADIUS of a 5D pipe bend is actually what is 5 times the nominal diameter. So if you had a 10" diameter pipe, the radius of the centerline of the bend would be 50 inches.
You'll most likely learn one or two programming subjects in your university studies, but not much more than that. You will certainly need much less knowledge about programming than if you specialize in computer sciences.
How does length of gas nozzle effect mig welding?
The legth of the gas nozzle can affect the MIG welding process because it modifies the "electrode extension" or so called stickout.
The longer the nozzle the longer electrode extension needed to keep the arc away from it thus the value od the welding current and arc voltage changes. These changes will have a great effect on the weld.
An imperial micrometer can read to what accuracy?
An imperial micrometer can measure to within 0.001in (1000th of an inch).
An inlet baffle is part of a septic system. It is the point at which wastewater leaves the home and goes into the septic tank.
Example of sentence density current?
And example of a sentence using the term density current might be this one: The water in the north was much colder than the basin water, and this colder water, because it was more dense than the seawater in the basin, created a density current that caused the cold water to flow into the lower area of the basin.
Why do you expect an infinity line to have an input impedance equal to the caractarictic impedance?
The characteristic impedance of a transmission line is the ratio of voltage to current of the propagating electrical wave. The line input impedance is the result of the superposition of forward and reverse, or reflected waves when the terminating impedance is not adapted. If the line is infinite, nothing returns from its end and only the forward wave exits. The voltage to current ratio is then the line characteristic impedance. Remark that the same occurs when the line is terminated by its characteristic impedance, the forward wave finds a perfect continuity to the load and no energy is reflected back to the line. A matched line is like an infinite line when looked from the input terminals. Long real lossy lines also act as infinite lines for the energy of the reflected wave is dissipated along the line before reaching the source.
Why is it that no matter what major you cannot escape writing essays?
Essays are unavoidable, just like death and taxes. And the instructors want to see how much a student does not know about their subject.
What 32X 8 bit denotes in case of general purpose register of ATMEGA 32?
32x8 normally means 32 registers of 8 bit width.
A drawing that divides a cube, for example to see what's inside in it.
What is difference between capacitor and super capacitor?
Super capacitor have high capacitance compare to normal capacitor. Super capacitor use two layer of dielectric medium whereas in normal capacitor single medium dielectric.
Because of this super capacitor use as alternate power source for RTC when computer is off.
Where is the biggest roller coaster in north America?
"Kingda Ka" at Six Flags Great Adventure in Jackson, New Jersey. 456 Feet Tall and 128 MPH!
The Insurance Regulatory and Development Authority (IRDA) was formed by an act of Indian Parliament known as IRDA Act 1999
