Static system A pitot-static system is a system of pressure-sensitive instruments that is most often used in aviation to determine an aircraft’sairspeed‚ Mach number‚ altitude‚ and altitude trend. A pitot-static system generally consists of a pitot tube‚ a static port‚ and the pitot-static instruments. Errors in pitot-static system readings can be extremely dangerous as the information obtained from the pitot static system‚ such as altitude‚ is often critical to a successful flight. Several commercial

Introduction History: The audio amplifier was invented in 1909 by Lee De Forest when he invented the triode vacuum tube. The triode was a three terminal device with a control grid that can modulate the flow of electrons from the filament to the plate. The triode vacuum amplifier was used to make the first AM radio.[2] Early audio power amplifiers were based on vacuum tubes (also known as valves)‚ and some of these achieved notably high quality (e.g.‚ the Williamson amplifier of 1947-9). Most

years after the War. And for not being widely known it had little direct influence on the development of later computers. "Page 22" 3. Two problems associated with vacuum tubes are that they are very power consuming devices and the size of the vacuum tubes. "Video - Part 3" 4. Transistors were better than the vacuum tube because they were smaller‚ faster‚ more reliable‚ and cheaper to mass produce. But the problem with transistors was they still have to be hand-wired which limits how small transistors

According to Nursing Times Journal‚ “The majority of patients with tracheostomies will be unable to speak‚ as the tube/stoma is positioned below the level of the vocal cords.” Thus‚ customize communization according to each patient.
