Can static electricity ruin a mobile phone?
My mom has gone through 3 phones in the last year. The first one was a Samsung Blackjack II and the media player software ended up with errors. At the time, AT&T said that they had never encountered that problem before. She got another Blackjack II and the same thing happened to it, but in 3 months time. She now has an iPhone 3G, and has had it for about 3 months and she now has the white screen of death. Another iPhone 3G is en route, but she was just wondering if her continual problems with smart phones is static electricity, or maybe its the place she works or maybe its just her. She works with preschool children in a basement, but the children aren't the problem (the kids don't come into contact with the phone) Thanks
How do I ground my mobile home?
When the electric service was installed in the home, it should have been done by a professional electrician. When service is installed to the breaker box there is a grounding wire that is run from the box into the ground. As for as the large electric bill it wouldn't have anything to do with the ground wire. That would be another reason I would call an electrician.
My mom has a mobile home and she has an issue with static electricity building up in the home?
Hello Static electricity building up generally means the humidity is too long. A humidifier will help solve the problem.
How much weight can a mobile home floor hold without problems?
Your mobil home floor is capable of handling any normal household item....if that floor has never gotten wet. Normally, you will have 3/4" particle board sub-floor on 2 X 6 floor joists, very similar to stick built homes. If, however water damage exists, any weight at all will break through the particle board. Typically, water damage will occur under windows, doors and around bathroom fixtures. I know personally that a cubical security safe, of about 20 inches, and weighing 50 pounds sits perfectly on the floor of a mobil home I have. That is more weight per square inch than any bed, TV or household item might have.
Physics question : mobile, static equilibrium?
Just start balancing your torques for each section of the mobile starting at the bottom. Having a net torque of 0 produces a state of rotational equilibrium meaning its gonna stay horizontal. The equation for calculating torque is: t = r F sin(Angle) where: t, is the torque r, is the distance from pivot point the force is being applied F, is the magnitude of the force being applied Angle, the angle at which the force is being applied and since in this case case always going to be 90 degrees and sin(90) = 1 the equation can be simplified to just: t = r F Start at the bottom rotational equilibrium like i said before is achieved when the net t is zero. so: t net = 0 but the tnet is being provided by 2 torques the 125g weight on the left (t1) and the unknown one on the right (t2). so: t1 - t2 = 0 F1 r1 - F2 r2 = 0 since the only force in this case is being provided by the weight of the weights then your F = mg m1g r1 - m2g r2 = 0 m1g r1 = m2g r2 m1 r1 = m2 r2 m2 = [ m1 r1 ]/[ r2 ] now looking at this equation you know everything except for the value of m2 plug in and solve for it. m2 = [ (.125kg)(.3m) ]/[ .2m ] m2 = .1875 kg = 187.5g That would be the mass of the weight label A. The rest of the problem is just a repetition of this except that at the next layer the force acting at the 10cm side of the pivot is going to be the combine weight of the 2 bottom weights ( 125g + 187.5g = 312.5g ) and at the level above that its going to be the combines weight of the bottom 3 weights. After doing the math you should get weightC = 250g weightB = 104.2g weightA = 187.5g
Is there a personal finance app better than Mint.com?
I think Mint is a great product, especially for the price, but I outgrew it.Mint is great at expense tracking and budgeting but I turned to Personal Capital because:Far better at investment tracking and portfolio managementAdequate expense tracking, light budgetingAfter years of using Mint, I cared less about my budget because it was relatively static from month to month. I cared more about integrating the investment accounts I had, see the retirement vs. non-retirement assets in one place, and do all those other things that I felt was missing.You don’t go into why are not 100% satisfied with Mint but there are very few expense trackers out there that can beat it.
Why is balance sheet a static business document?
It is static because it captures the balances of assets, liabilities, and owners' equity as of the end of the accounting period. You may have heard the phrase "at a snapshot in time." http://www.accountingcoach.com/online-ac... In Example Company, note that the date is May 31, 2008. The balance sheet reflects the balances as of the close of business on that date. Compare that to what is in the title of the income statement: "The income statement is important because it shows the profitability of a company during the time interval specified in its heading. The period of time that the statement covers is chosen by the business and will vary. For example, the heading may state: "For the Three Months Ended December 31, 2007" (The period of October 1 through December 31, 2007.) "The Four Weeks Ended December 27, 2007" (The period of November 29 through December 27, 2007.) "The Fiscal Year Ended September 30, 2008" (The period of October 1, 2007 through September 30, 2008.) http://www.accountingcoach.com/online-ac...
Can a worker use a mobile phone on an oil rig?
Some companies will allow you to use your cell phone in safe areas, some will retain it before you embark. All companies won’t let their workers to use “normal” mobile devices on external areas of a Oil Rig once there are various hazardous areas there. Why I said “Normal” mobile devices? Because in the era of Industry 4.0 and IoT there are plenty of available devices that are intrinsically safe but most of companies are not there yet.A fire needs fuel, oxygen and an ignition source. Flammable gasses, vapors and dust provide the fuel, oxygen is present in most environments, and ignition can come from a spark or hot surface (like your phone). Every fire is dangerous, but in more extreme cases combustion is so rapid as to cause an explosion. OSHA has many reports of devastating fires and explosions across a wide range of industries.Preventing fire and explosions is a top priority as no business or organization wishes to be responsible for causing death and injury. Additionally, the direct financial penalties of such events – punitive fines and increased insurance premiums— can cripple a previously successful operation.The industry is changing quite fast and more intrinsically safe devices are being launched from tablets and external wi-fi routers to drones.To see a sample of what is on the market check this website:Mobile Devices Hazardous Areas
