Non-photochemical quenching (NPQ) is a protective mechanism used by plants to safely dissipate excess absorbed light energy as heat, minimizing photooxidative damage. Although the importance of NPQ as a safety valve for photosynthesis is well-known, the physiological and environmental ...
This is the reason why more and more people are getting their walls rendered in order to reap the benefits that it can provide. However, the problem with this scenario is that most people who want their walls to be rendered do not have a single idea on how much it actually costs to hi...
EVs directly convert electricity into movement, whereas an internal combustion engine vehicle burns fuel to produce heat to create propulsion. This allows EVs to be 70% more efficient than their ICE counterparts. Secondly, the energy is recovered and returned to the battery when an EV brakes, ena...
Integrated graphics may not have independent RAM, but they also don't generate as much heat or use as much power and battery life as their discrete counterparts. Integrated graphics are generally not preferred for graphic-intense gaming, but they are more budget-friendly. They’re also fine for...
How much food do you buy each week? Do you finish everything that you buy? If not, what will you do with the leftover(吃剩的) food? Save it for another time or throw it into the bin? Throwing away unwanted food has become a big problem. Most food waste happens at supermarkets. ...
As to the losses: the pyrolysis process as such does not require much energy, but it is necessary to provide heat to achieve pyrolysis temperatures. This is realised by combusting the char and the permanent gases. Part of this heat is re-used in the process, namely for drying of the ...
Some elements of a marketing asset contribute to conversions more than others. Changing one word in the body copy of an email, for instance, probably won’t make much of a difference in conversion orclick-through rates. Since you have limited time, devote your energy to the most impactful ...
Rather than being bright green, too much light will cause them to turn a yellower shade of green. As mentioned above, too much light can cause sunburn as well as bring about indirect symptoms due to the heat that often accompanies bright, direct sunlight, mostly in the form of dehydration...
A CPU is a small but mighty computer chip found on top of the motherboard in your PC. It’s placed into the CPU socket with its pins facing down. A small lever keeps it secure. CPUs generate a lot of heat, even when running for a short amount of time. Due to this thermal activit...
In an atomic clock, the natural oscillations of atoms act like the pendulum in a grandfather clock. However, atomic clocks are far more precise than conventional clocks because atomic oscillations have a much higher frequency and are much more stable. ...
