  2. Safe mode in spacecraft - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Safe_mode_in_spacecraft

    The Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter (MRO) entered safe mode on August 26, 2009 for the second incident in a month, the fourth in 2009 and the eighth since launch in 2005. [9] [10] The spacecraft was kept in safe mode until December 8, 2009. [11] Kepler entered safe mode on June 15 and again on July 3, 2009. Both cases were triggered by an on-board ...

    Safe mode is a diagnostic mode of a computer operating system (OS). It can also refer to a mode of operation by application software. Safe mode is intended to help ...

  4. Self-discharge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-discharge

    How fast self-discharge in a battery occurs is dependent on the type of battery, state of charge, charging current, ambient temperature and other factors. [2] Primary batteries are not designed for recharging between manufacturing and use, and thus to be practical they must have much lower self-discharge rates than older types of secondary cells.

  5. The common myth often refers to the draining action of flush toilets and bathtubs. In fact, rotation is determined by whatever minor rotation is initially present at the time the water starts to drain, as the magnitude of the coriolis acceleration is negligibly small compared to the inertial acceleration of flow within a typical basin. [445]

    [21] [22] On 28 February 2020, Apple agreed to a $500 million settlement in a California court, under which it plans to pay at least $25 to all U.S. residents who had purchased an iPhone 6, 6 Plus, 6S, 6S Plus, SE, 7 or 7 Plus device . [23] A separate investigation from 34 states and the District of Columbia also looked into the battery practice.

    The second, Type 2 film, is a compact, protective layer of ZnO that forms directly from the oxidation of the metal surface and is more stable. This Type 2 film creates a passivation layer that impairs the discharge performance of the Al-air battery. However, the addition of indium (In) helps break down and destabilize this Zn passive layer.

  8. Charge-depleting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charge-depleting

    Battery electric vehicles operate solely in charge-depleting mode, and most plug-in hybrids operate in this mode at startup and switch to charge-sustaining mode after the battery has reached its minimum state of charge (SOC) threshold, exhausting the vehicle's all-electric range (AER). Although there is no technically mandated minimum all ...

    Surface Book was announced at the Windows 10 Devices Event by Microsoft on October 6, 2015, alongside the Surface Pro 4, and went on sale shortly thereafter. [7] At the announcement, Panos Panay, corporate vice president for Surface Computing at Microsoft, initially presented the device as a laptop and positioned it as a competitor to the MacBook Pro, before revealing that it was a hybrid ...
