  2. Alternating current - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alternating_current

    A schematic representation of long distance electric power transmission. From left to right: G=generator, U=step-up transformer, V=voltage at beginning of transmission line, Pt=power entering transmission line, I=current in wires, R=total resistance in wires, Pw=power lost in transmission line, Pe=power reaching the end of the transmission line, D=step-down transformer, C=consumers.

  3. AC power - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AC_power

    Current lagging voltage (quadrant I vector), current leading voltage (quadrant IV vector). These are all denoted in the adjacent diagram (called a power triangle). In the diagram, P is the active power, Q is the reactive power (in this case positive), S is the complex power and the length of S is the apparent power.

    Dr. Dinesh Prasad Saklani is the director of NCERT since 2022. [2] In 2023, NCERT constituted a 19-member committee, including author and Infosys Foundation chair Sudha Murthy, singer Shankar Mahadevan, and Manjul Bhargava to finalize the curriculum, textbooks and learning material for classes 3 to 12.

  5. Wetting current - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wetting_current

    A related term sealing current (aka wetting current or fritting current) is widely used in the telecommunication industry describing a small constant DC current (typically 1-20 mA) in copper wire loops in order to avoid contact oxidation of contacts and splices.

  6. Electric current - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_current

    A current in a wire or circuit element can flow in either of two directions. When defining a variable to represent the current, the direction representing positive current must be specified, usually by an arrow on the circuit schematic diagram. [12] [13]: 13 This is called the reference direction of the current .

    Due to differences between larvae of acorn worms and that of Planctosphaera pelagica, Planctosphaera is sometimes given its own class. Xenacoelomorpha : are they deuterostomes , forming a clade Xenambulacraria together with echinoderms and hemichordates , or rather primitive bilaterians and a sister group to Nephrozoa ?

  9. Wireless power transfer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wireless_power_transfer

    [12] [13] [14] The technologies differ in the distance over which they can transfer power efficiently, whether the transmitter must be aimed (directed) at the receiver, and in the type of electromagnetic energy they use: time varying electric fields, magnetic fields, radio waves, microwaves, infrared or visible light waves.
