  2. Wiring diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wiring_diagram

    A wiring diagram for parts of an electric guitar, showing semi-pictorial representation of devices arranged in roughly the same locations they would have in the guitar. An automotive wiring diagram, showing useful information such as crimp connection locations and wire colors. These details may not be so easily found on a more schematic drawing.

  3. Heating element - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heating_element

    A heating element is a device used for conversion of electric energy into heat, consisting of a heating resistor and accessories. [1] Heat is generated by the passage of electric current through a resistor through a process known as Joule heating .

  4. Periodic Videos - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Periodic_Videos

    The 118 element videos and introduction videos were all shot unscripted in June and July 2008. [5] Since the initial videos were completed in 2008 the team has been refining and uploading revised versions of the videos with new video and in higher resolutions. [5] A key example of this revising is with the xenon video that was redone in honour ...

  5. Differential heat treatment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Differential_heat_treatment

    However, with double-edged blades, the heat source will usually need to be more precisely localized because the heat must be applied evenly along the center of the blade, allowing it to conduct to both edges. Often, a red or yellow-hot bar is used to supply the heat, placing it along the center of the blade, typically fitted into a fuller. [24]

  6. Annealing (materials science) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Annealing_(materials_science)

    With knowledge of the composition and phase diagram, heat treatment can be used to adjust from harder and more brittle to softer and more ductile. In the case of ferrous metals, such as steel, annealing is performed by heating the material (generally until glowing) for a while and then slowly letting it cool to room temperature in still air.

  7. Chemical coloring of metals - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_coloring_of_metals

    Chemical coloring of metals is the process of changing the color of metal surfaces with different chemical solutions. The chemical coloring of metals can be split into three types: electroplating – coating the metal surface with another metal using electrolysis. patination – chemically reacting the metal surface to form a colored oxide or ...

  8. Edison light bulb - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edison_light_bulb

    In the 1960s, US inventor Robert (Bob) Kyp patented a similar in appearance but flickering "electric flame" light bulb under the name Balafire [6] as well as radiometers. His flicker bulb was used in a 7-Up commercial, [ 7 ] and the company he ran since 1964, Kyp-Go, is currently the only US manufacturer of carbon-filament bulbs.

  9. Fire triangle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fire_triangle

    The triangle illustrates the three elements a fire needs to ignite: heat, fuel, and an oxidizing agent (usually oxygen). [2] A fire naturally occurs when the elements are present and combined in the right mixture. [3] A fire can be prevented or extinguished by removing any one of the elements in the fire triangle.
