Most importantly‚ fire hazard endangers our life. In terms of safety process‚ to prevent fire from starting‚ it is necessary to sustain all heaters and (open) fires well-guarded. It is recommended to apply in-built guards that are provide extra protection‚ as well as nursery guards with side clips fitting into fixed wall brackets. Furthermore‚ portable heaters and candles should be kept away from away from curtains and furniture in a safe position where they cannot get knocked over. Next‚ it is advisable

Millions of Americans illuminated their homes with kerosene from Standard Oil for one cent per hour. The discovery of large quantities of crude oil in northwest Pennsylvania soon changed the lives of millions of Americans. For centuries‚ people had known of the existence of crude oil scattered about America

Chapter 25 Electrical Power and Domestic Electricity Checkpoint (p.197) 1. The heating effect of current increases with the applied voltage across the wire. Microscopically‚ when a voltage is applied across the ends of a metal wire‚ an electric field is set up between the ends. The free electrons are accelerated by the field and collide frequently with the metal ions in the wire. Thus‚ some energy is transformed into the internal energy of the wire. When the applied voltage increases‚ the electric

the heat flux and temperature difference. The difficulty of the measurement is always associated with the heat flux measurement. Where the measurement of the heat flux is done directly (for example‚ by measuring the electrical power going into the heater)‚ the measurement is called absolute. Where the flux measurement is done indirectly (by comparison)‚ the method is called comparative.
