How do we change the power of an electric generator without changing the frequency?
nikidi.control... First, your question reveals you lack education related to electricity! Why? Because one must know how to find the square-root of negative numbers? Secondly, one must know how to use the REAL part a and IMAGINARY part bi or a + bi to identify the various components of the...

BrownPaperBag... Your question is not clear. For example, does your term Head mean Pressure, p=F/A, for Force per Unit of Area! If so, then p must be expressed in Standard Units, better known as SI units! Similar to Hands to express the height of a horse! Secondly, you must consider at least two...
