Questions

An interpreter reads one instruction at a time and carries out the actions implied by that instruction. It does not perform any translation. But a compiler translates the entire instructions

A greenhouse gas (GHG) is any gas in the atmosphere that absorbs and emits radiation in the thermal infrared range.

The increase in average global temperatures that results from an enhanced greenhouse effect.

Effects of increased greenhouse gas emissions:

Increases in the different greenhouse gases have other effects apart from global warming including ocean acidification, smog pollution, ozone depletion as well as changes to plant growth and nutrition levels.

Pressure is Not a form of Energy.

Energy : It is defined as the ability to do work.

Energy comes in two basic forms. They are :

1. Potential Energy

2. Kinetic Energy

Potential Energy is any type of stored energy. It can be chemical, nuclear, gravitational, or mechanical.

Kinetic Energy is found in movement. An airplane flying or a meteor plummeting each have kinetic energy. Even the tiniest things have kinetic energy, like atoms vibrating when they are hot or when they transmit sound waves. Electricity is the kinetic energy of flowing electrons between atoms.

The HF band is based on frequencies 3 to 30 Mhz. AM radio stations are in the HF band but normally are stated in kilohertz.

Pitot tube is used to measure stagnation pressure.

A neuron or nerve cell is a cell that carries electrical impulses. Neurons are the basic units of the nervous system and its most important part is the brain. Every neuron is made of a cell body (also called a soma), dendrites and an axon. Dendrites and axons are nerve fibres.

The gap between two communicating neurons is termed Synaptic cleft.

Lines of latitude measure north-south position between the poles.

Lines of latitude are imaginary reference lines that describe how far north or south a location on the Earth is from the Equator. The equator is defined as 0 degrees, the North Pole is 90 degrees north, and the South Pole is 90 degrees south. Lines of latitude are all parallel to each other, thus they are often referred to as parallels.

Internal Rate of Return is that rate of Return at which the net present value is equal to Zero or it is the Rate which equates the present value of the cash inflows to the cash outflows.

NPV = Cash Inflow - Cash outflow

NPV = Zero
