Write a note on lead - acid storage battery.

Q. Write a note on lead - acid storage battery.

Answer:

 A storage cell that can operate both as a voltaic cell and as an electric cell, When operating as a voltaic cell it supplies electrical energy and as a result eventually becomes "run down". It must then be reacharged, When being recharged, the cell operates as an electrolytic cell. Thus, storge cell has the great advantaged of its ability to work both ways, to receive electrical energy and also to supply it:


Construction: The common example of a storage cell is the lead storage cell. One of its electrodes is made of lead. The other electrode is made of lead dioxide (PbO_{2}) or rather a paste of PbO_{2} is pressed into a grid made of lead. A number of lead plates (-ve plates) are connected in parallel and a number of lead dioxide plates (+ve plates) are also connected in parallel. The lead plates fit in between the lead dioxide plates. Various plates are separated form the adjacent ones by insulators like strips of wood or rubber or glass fibre. The entire combination is then immersed in approximately 20% H_{2}SO_{4}

AGRICULTURE Class 10 geography  Chapter 4 important term and notes for board. Cbse, state and other board exam https://digieducationlearningpoint.blogspot.com/?m=1   Important term 1. Primitive Substance Agriculture is practised with small patches of land with the help of  primitive tools like hoe, Dao and digging sticks, and family/community labour. This type of farming depends upon monsoon, natural fertility of the soil and suitability of other environmental conditions to the crops grown. 2. Slash and Burn Agriculture is a method of agriculture used in the tropics, in which forest vegetation is felled and burned, the land is cropped for a few years, then the forest is allowed to reinvade. 3. Intensive Subsistence Agriculture is a method of agriculture, where farmers get more food per acre compared to other subsistence farming methods. This allows farmers to make the most of each harvest. 4. Plantation usually a large farm or estate, especially in a tropical or s...

Is It Possible to Survive Without the Sun, Moon, and Stars?

Is It Possible to Survive Without the Sun, Moon, and Stars? Is It Possible to Survive Without the Sun, Moon, and Stars? Have you ever wondered what would happen if the Sun, Moon, and stars vanished? While it may sound like a science fiction scenario, imagining such a situation can help us understand how critical these cosmic objects are to life on Earth and beyond. 🌞 Without the Sun: Total Collapse of Life No sunlight means plants can’t perform photosynthesis, the base of our food chain collapses. Temperature drops drastically . Within a week, Earth's surface could hit -17°C; in a year, -73°C. Gravitational loss : Without the Sun's gravity, Earth and other planets would fly into space on a straight path. Solar energy ends : No solar panels, no photosynthesis, no Vitamin D—no life as we know it. 🌕 Without the Moon: Chaos on Earth No tides – disrupting marine ecosystems, whic...
