Energy is constant, it cannot be created or destroyed; it simply changes form. Therfore, this electrical generator is impossible. The best efficency is approx. 30%. The other 70% of theenergy comes out as usless vibration, sound or light. The generator mentioned in the question would gain energy from nowhere, in other words, it's science fiction.

Why does a mix of hot and cold temperatures create thunderstorms?
It is not so much the mixing that creates thunderstorms, but the boundary between warm and cold temperatures. Cool air is denser than warm air, so when warm and cold air masses meet, the warm air is forced upward. As the warm air rises it cools and, if it is moist enough, condensation will occur, forming clouds and potentially rain showers. If this warm air remains warmer than its surroundings at higher altitudes, then it will continue to rise on its own, leading to more condensation, which releases energy to drive a thunderstorm.
Heat lightning is lightning from a distant thunderstorm. Because of the great distance, you never hear the thunder, and usually do not see the bolt, but rather a flash in distant clouds. It is usually seen at night.
How and why is severe acidosis dangerous?
Acidosis implies high levels of hydrogen ions from acids and/or low levels of anions (e.g. bicarbonate) in the blood. The hydrogen ions easily bind to the polar groups on proteins. In high enough concentrations the protein can have its overall polarity or important active sites on it changed. These changes will alter the function of the protein, hindering it from working properly. If enough proteins are affected then you eventually fall into a coma and if left untreated you die.
Why do people have a wake viewing?
The wake viewing is a Catholic tradition dating back to the middle ages when the moment and definition of death was in doubt. They literally would wait to see if the individual would "wake" up.

What would happen if a sound signal patterns pitch was increased but the volume stayed the same?
Increasing the pitch of a sound signal without changing the volume would result in a higher frequency of the sound waves. The sound would be perceived as higher in pitch, but the overall loudness would remain consistent. This change in pitch would not affect the perceived volume of the sound.
