The efficiency of a power plant is the ratio of output power to input power.
Efficiency is affected by factors such as fuel type, technology used, and maintenance.
Higher efficiency means less fuel is needed to produce the same amount of power.
Efficiency can be improved through upgrades and modifications to the plant.
Efficiency can be calculated using the formula: Efficiency = (Output Power / Input Power) x 100%
For examp...
Efficiency of transformer is the ratio of output power to input power.

Blast furnace is a large steel structure used to extract iron from its ore through a chemical process.
Raw materials like iron ore, coke, and limestone are fed into the furnace from the top.
Hot air is blown into the furnace from the bottom, which reacts with the coke to produce carbon monoxide.
Carbon monoxide reduces the iron ore to iron, which melts and collects at the bottom of the furnace.
The impurities in the iron o...
Ductility and malleability are properties of materials to deform under stress without breaking.
Ductility is the ability of a material to be drawn into a wire without breaking.
Malleability is the ability of a material to be hammered or rolled into thin sheets without breaking.
Both properties are important in metalworking and manufacturing.
Examples of ductile materials include copper and gold.
Examples of malleable materi
