Overview Of Neuron Structural and Functional Properties and Electric Circuit Parameter Models from a Cellular Perspective. Neurons serve the purpose of receiving signals coming from neighbouring neurons; they assimilate these signals‚ and generate nerve pulses. They then conduct and transmit these nerve pulses to other neurons which are capable of receiving them. Neurons are the structural constituents of the brain. Typically‚ neurons are five to six orders of magnitude slower than silicon logic

An electric generator is basically an electric motor working backwards. An electric motor converts electrical energy into mechanical energy‚ and an electric generator converts mechanical energy into electrical energy. An electric generator looks almost identical to an electric motor. Each consists of a loop that is able to rotate in a magnetic field. The electric motor uses electrical energy to make the loops rotate which creates mechanical energy. In the electric generator it uses mechanical energy

5. How Do I Compare Electric Arc Furnaces and Blast Furnaces? How Do I Compare Electric Arc Furnaces and Blast Furnaces? By Helen Akers‚ eHow Contributor Electric arc and blast furnaces create high temperatures to turn metals into liquid form. Both blast and electric arc furnaces are used in industrial settings to heat and mold metal. A blast furnace is used to make steel from liquid iron‚ while an electric arc furnace is used to make steel from scrap material. Electric arc furnaces use two

Compare and Contrast Gasoline Verses Electric Vehicles A wave of environmental values and a reduction in production costs is causing many consumers to consider trading in their gas powered cars for an electric counterpart. While the shift from gas powered vehicles to electric is still relatively young‚ recent changes have caused it to pick up significant speed. When comparing the advantages and disadvantages of gas and electric vehicles several options should be considered. A few of these options

The cost benefit analysis of Plug In hybrid electric vehicles includes a comparison between the lifetime of the vehicle and the ownership cost. Here the cost of ownership includes the cost of consumption of energy as well as the retail cost‚ but excludes the differences in cost of maintenance. A high cost of 5 USD per gallon of gasoline is assumed for the near term scenario. The cost of consumption of electricity is assumed to be 0.09 USD per Kilowatt-hour.[29] 7.
