Cars was the second-highest-grossing animated film of 2006, behind Ice Age: The Meltdown. [43] In the UK, Cars managed to beat out Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest to claim the number one spot, earning $3.4 million in its opening weekend. [44] It would be overtaken by Miami Vice in its second weekend, but earned $2.3 million. [45]
Study findings reveal an average price elasticity of 1.98, which means that a 10 percent increase in the price of metal leads to an approximate 20 percent increase in thefts. [57] According to the National Insurance Crime Bureau, there were 1,298 reported cases of catalytic converter theft in 2018, which increased to 14,433 in 2020. [58]
An 8-plate 160 V 450 mA Federal brand selenium rectifier. A selenium rectifier is a type of metal rectifier, invented in 1933. [1] They were used in power supplies for electronic equipment and in high-current battery-charger applications until they were superseded by silicon diode rectifiers in the late 1960s.
A metal rectifier is an early type of semiconductor rectifier in which the semiconductor is copper oxide, germanium or selenium. They were used in power applications to convert alternating current to direct current in devices such as radios and battery chargers .

[1] Carbothermal reactions produce carbon monoxide (CO) and sometimes carbon dioxide (CO 2 ). The facility of these conversions is attributable to the entropy of reaction: two solids, the metal oxide (and flux) and carbon, are converted to a new solid (metal) and a gas (CO x ), the latter having high entropy.
Copper(I) oxide may be produced by several methods. [3] Most straightforwardly, it arises via the oxidation of copper metal: 4 Cu + O 2 → 2 Cu 2 O. Additives such as water and acids affect the rate as well as the further oxidation to copper(II) oxides. It is also produced commercially by reduction of copper(II) solutions with sulfur dioxide.
