The last part of interphase is called the G2 phase. The cell has grown, DNA has been replicated, and now the cell is almost ready to divide. This last stage is all about prepping the cell for mitosis or meiosis. During G2, the cell has to grow some more andRead More →
The solidus is the highest temperature at which an alloy is solid – where melting begins. The liquidus is the temperature at which an alloy is completely melted. At temperatures between the solidus and liquidus the alloy is part solid, part liquid. What happens at the solvus line? The solvusRead More →
A three-phase circuit provides greater power density than a one-phase circuit at the same amperage, keeping wiring size and costs lower. In addition, three-phase power makes it easier to balance loads, minimizing harmonic currents and the need for large neutral wires. Is single-phase or three-phase power better? One key differenceRead More →
Three-phase power has four wires, three of which are active, in addition to one neutral wire, which is earthed at the switchboard. Three phase electricity is common in both larger homes and businesses, as well as older homes, and allows for smaller and less expensive wiring, and lower voltages. WhyRead More →
