Did WW1 planes drop propaganda flyers?
no
Can you use a drop cord on a refrigerator?
No you can not =(
I have a 5000 watt Honda generator. How much of a voltage drop will a 25 foot portable generator cord cause?
A 25 foot cord will not cause enough voltage drop to worry about.
Is it safe to bury a drop cord?
what type of wire is it? Cable ,Phone, electric.
If you drop a rock what is the force acting on it?
Gravitaional force is the force pulling on it from the Earth.
What must you consider before using a long extension cord wound on a reel?
Many things. What current you will be drawing, will the cord have to be fully extended, will the voltage drop affect the tool you are using, is the cable going to be a trip hazard. Depending on the circumstances and situation there are others too.
If you have 1200 watt generator how much will voltage drop with 100ft extension cord?
To answer this question more information is needed. The wire size of the extention cord is needed.
Does a long extension cord draw more power than a short extension cord?
No. However, a longer extension cord has higher resistance for a given wire gauge or size compared to a short extension cord and the voltage at the load device may drop so low that it doesn't work properly. This may also be accompanied by a noticeable rise in the temperature of the extension cord. As a rule, use the shortest extension cord that will get the job done. If the extension cord must be long, use one that has heavy gauge wire to minimize voltage drop at the load.
Which wire has greater resistance a light plugged into an extension cord or a light plugged directly into a wall?
Light and an extension cord. The extension cord will act as an added resistor in series. The more cord you add will only increase the overall resistance from the wall outlet. If you use a high gage extension cord, this will help reduce the resistance. But any cord will add resistance. If the gage is low, then the cord will actually heat up and you will be able to feel the heat. That is due to the resistance within the cord.

Why will an electric drill operating on a very long extension cord not rotate as fast as one operated on a short cord?
It is the voltage drop from the undersized wire that is used in the extension cord. Under this condition you will find that the drill will start to become hot with the additional current that the drill is trying to draw to keep the motor turning. It could get to a point where the breaker will trip before the drill burns out.
Where is the block plug in on a 2004 f-350?
look between the radiator and the grill to find a rolled up cord for block heater. ford hides the cord there during installation. just un wrap cord and drop it down where you can get at it
How do you pull the engine of a 99 intrigue from the top or drop it out the botttom?
I have had luck pulling them from the top with the transmission attached.
