How long is the road to isolation ?????

LOL. Thank you.How long is the road to isolation ?????
Hi Phil,


It's a long long cold dark walk and hard to get away out of it..Be Strong and you will find away..You need to go out with your Friends and start having some fun My Friend..I am starting to Worry about you My Friend..


A Friend,


poppy1How long is the road to isolation ?????
Closer than you think.
can be infinitely long
I take it alot, it is very short, I stay home and don't answer my phone. I really need to get out more. lol j
1 step inside my heart
if you are on Yahoo Q's and A's ...you are now here..welcome!
Never driven down it
as long as the wireless network takes you with your laptop
It's a long and winding road, to obscurity.
it's the road paved with good intentions, which is a really long one.
its the green mile.
why do you ask? you don't need that road.
Miles and miles and miles. You pass my house on the way if you want a cup of tea and a bite to eat? :)
About 2-4miles.
As long as you make it.....champagne got me out of it..and a good bonk aswell xox
it's a dead end
Depends on how far away solitude is.
6 miles, just after the road to loneliness

What is the role of isolation in Evolution ?

when an animal or plant is isolated they evolve by their surroundings. For example, say tigers live on mainland but a few get separated by some act of nature. Millions of years down the line they will have evolved differently to adapt better to their little isolated island then their cousins on the main land.What is the role of isolation in Evolution ?
Isolation aids in and is the main cause of speciation in evolution.

(Help please on speach!) Is continued isolation of Japan is a good thing or a bad thing?

You are an influential samurai ( a Shi-Shi) in Japan when Commodore Matthew Perry forces Kanagawa in 1854. you must deliver a speech to your Daimyo about wether or not continued isolation of Japan is a good thing or a bad thing.








( I have to right a speech convinvincing my classmates, and I'm not to good with this subject can someone help me out?)(Help please on speach!) Is continued isolation of Japan is a good thing or a bad thing?
Well, first of all you should choose your stance on the position. You said that you must convince your classmates. But you didn't say what you try to convince them of. So, first you should decide which one you want to write about, and then gather information to support your idea.





in short (just my very basic views on the topic. try researching wikipedia on the topic for more detailed ideas):





continued isolation =


1) perservation of Japanese culture


2) you can control what ideas, goods come into your country from abroad


3) increased security (no criminals or dangerous individuals entering the country without your permision


4) able to avoid getting involved in other countries' wars





end of isolation =


1) able to develop quickly due to new ideas from foreign countries


2) cooperation and support from other nations in times of need


3) avoiding a confrontation with Commodore Perry and his ';black ships';.





One thing to think about is that Japan was never really complete isolated. before 1854, they still traded with China, Korea, and the Dutch. They just didn't let them come INTO Japan to trade.





hope this helps.(Help please on speach!) Is continued isolation of Japan is a good thing or a bad thing?
I'm pretty sure you're using the word ';shishi'; wrong. Because if I'm a shishi, there isn't an argument as to which side I'll choose. if i'm a shishi, for sure I'll say that it's a bad thing..........................


that's what the shishi means. they were national extremists.


Shishi murdered many foreigners and japanese nationals when they sided with the ending of isolationism.. including Ii Naosuke.





If on the other hand, you mean, I'm supposed to not have picked a side yet and advise properly, i would say that continued isolation is becoming unfeasible in light of world events. If we don't end isolation and start to attempt to make treatises, japan will end up semi-colonized like china and the rest of south-east asia.





(unfortunately, although isolation was ultimately ended, japan was forced to accept a series of unequal treaties that granted unequal trade agreements and extraterritoriality rights anyway until roughly the time of the Russo-Japanese war).
Tell your classmate that the countries which had came to Japan at that moment were not only America. First person who adviced Japan's shogun to open a country was William II of Holland in 1844.


Britain and Russia were also approached Japan.


Convention of Kanagawa between the US was signed in 1854.


Anglo-Japanese Friendship Treaty was also signed in 1854.


Treaty of Shimoda between Russia was signed in 1855.








You mean Bu-Shi?
Personally I believe a nation being isolated isn't a good thing since when you become isolated from others you tends to have this unrealized image of them. You tend to buy into stereotypes of what you see and hear of the group of people, not really experiencing those group of people face to face. Living in isolation cause you to become ignorant of other people and their cultures, but when you get the chance to meet other people and get to know the real them your ignorant will go away. Plus being isolated rob you of understanding other people cultures so I believe Japan shouldn't continuing to be isolation. I believe no nations,countries, people etc. should living in isolation. I hope I help you in some way, I'm not sure if I answered your question right, but I hope I did.

What would a long period of isolation do to a person? (say 2-3 years)

would the person show signs of dementia or not?





why and how so?





Thanks for your answers!What would a long period of isolation do to a person? (say 2-3 years)
People are social animals by nature. Isolation for this amount of time would cause death or at least insanity.What would a long period of isolation do to a person? (say 2-3 years)
Humans need to interact with other humans. When deprived of this for an extended period, they become depressed, and start having ';strange'; thoughts.The mind is a complex thing ! Inmates who have been in solitary confinement for long periods of time, are a good example ! I knew an old Viet Nam ';vet';, who lived up in the mountains by himself for 5 years. Went insane; Had to be locked up in a mental institution. I visited him off %26amp; on for 10 yrs.He didn't even remember me ! He died at age 55, while still being in relatively good health.
There is people in british prisons m.peterson for example that have spent and still spend there time on 23hr a day confined to there cell m.peterson has spent the last 12years in these conditions
Maybe go mad!





Talking to themselves.
should imagine it would make them pee themselves regulary and bark like a dog
turn in 2 a zebra and start eating grass
It would do me the world of good, Bloody kids

Which of the following doucuments was used to support isolation?

a. washingtons farewell adress

d.emancipation proclamationWhich of the following doucuments was used to support isolation?
a. Washington's Farewell Address


b. Monroe Doctrine

How did the Bush regime turn the world's sympathy for us after 9/11 into isolation and dislike???

Americans have asked themselves that question since 9/11. Actually they asked themselves why it happened in the first place. America is a great nation, but it does have the habit of creating their own future problems. America is perceived by the rest of the world as pushy, bossy and unfair, they have many ways to push buttons and get other nations to do what they want, and people resent that. They also resent the fact that Americans refuse to conform to rules other countries are following, like the Kyoto agreement to stop global warming. America is the greatest energy hog in the world, it uses up resources like crazy, but not their own, but those of some other nation. America sets rules but does not follow them. Take the case of an American diplomat in a foreign country who runs over some poor guy and kills him. The diplomat is whisked out of the country in a matter of hours. Even when the diplomat was drunk when that happened. On the other hand, a foreign diplomatin the USA runs over an American citizen and is slapped in jail. Mr. Bush is perceived as the worst president America has ever had, his election remains questionable. America feels entitled to demand clean elections elsewhere, but at home?....And this guy goes out and gets reelected, frankly unbelievable. There were many strange attitudes in the President when informed of the attack, many people have commented about it, there are websites dealing with it. His relationship with the Bin Laden Family and the fact that no matter how much money USA funnels into the search for Mr. Bin Laden, they can't find him and innocent Americans are dying in a foreign land because of his decisions, really makes you wonder. Some say he was after the oil, and his buddies are making a fortune in construction contracts. He is so paranoid that he can only justify his position by going out and making war on enemies, real or imagined. Now it's the Mexicans, who next? Unfortunately America's foreign policy has earned America a lot of hate. The arrogance of many Americans who tend to look down on anyone else is offensive for many, their insularity, where they cannot see or accept anything beyond their borders, thus they stay within those borders also does not help. A lot of Americans ignore many things about other countries, other nations, they tend to label and stereotype them. Big Mistake. By the time his second term ends he might well have alienated many other nations against America. See what happened in Spain because of the pre-election bombing. Things like those tend to rub people the wrong way.





One thing that I found sad was the hurricane that hit New Orleans. The lack of preparedness was unbelievable, the lack of control, the lack of leadership, and having chosen the wrong person to handle an emergency like that only made me wonder if America had finally fallen for their own Hollywood supernation stereotype. America feels free to criticize others, but will accept no criticism if they are the ones to blotch it.





Those are some of the reasons. There are many more. Bush is not America. The people are America, but they do need to be more tolerant and respectful of others.How did the Bush regime turn the world's sympathy for us after 9/11 into isolation and dislike???
The Bush Administration turned the world's sympathy for us after 9/11 into isolation and dislike by deciding to go it alone rather than to take the ';higher road'; and employ a statesman-like approach to transfer that sympathy into a groundswell of viable, practical support and subsequent unified action.





It was HUGE missed opportunity.How did the Bush regime turn the world's sympathy for us after 9/11 into isolation and dislike???
not the bush 'regime' its the world around us, one of the main causes to hate/isolation/dislike is jealousy, the fact of the matter is that we are one of the greatest if not the greatest countries in the world..
All the previous answers BUT one... geezzzzz...
easy - -


stupidity
He went after the wrong people and lied to do it
our arrogance in our own power and lack of sympathy of other nation's trouble.we want pity for the horrible attacks (which were inexcusable and wrong)but we other nothing in return to all the other country's that have suffered the same things
WEll, I'd say it had a LOT to do with us invading, bombing, killing, policing and threatening the rest of the world. Sad as it is, as not everybody in america agrees with gwb, the world thinks badly of us americans..


because of this idiot we have at the helm


I still cannot believe that he was actually elected.. (this term) after stealing the last election and lying to the american people and the world!
Mairead, what a great answer! And yeah Bush went after Iraq claiming they had weapons of mass destruction. the UN searched and said they didnt have any, but Bush said **** the UN i'm going anyway, for Oil and money.





He claims that he is protecting America, but North Korea and other places have openly exercised Nuclear projects, but all they do is talk to them, hold talks, lets talk...its cause they have no Oil, thats why they dont give a ****.
I didnt know this was a popularity contest.





Other countries have always disliked us for one reason or another. How about this reason? Our government works?





While it didnt say perfectly it seems its the best system so far.





Only victims need sympathy and we are not victims.





Stop it with the victim mentality already

    Why we use PNP power transistor in Isolation circuit? ?

    The signal from optocoupler is first given to PNP power transistor


    before giving it to Relay. Why is it so?Why we use PNP power transistor in Isolation circuit? ?
    The difference is in the current capacity. The relay draws too much current for the opto device to drive directly, so the power transistor is used to amplify the current handling capability.Think of the power transistor as an electronic lever with a small signal driving a much larger signal which drives the even bigger relay which can handle even larger current and voltage. The relay contacts are isolated from the transistor circuits and the power transistor isolates the relay coil from the optoisolator output circuit, and finally, the optoisolator uses a light beam to signal whether an object is in a certain location or not without a physical contact to ';feel'; the presence.

    What past events lead many american to support Lindbergh's call for continued isolation in WWII? 10 points

    any guess would be great, theres not really one correct answer





    10 points first good answer and i need it asap. thanks!!What past events lead many american to support Lindbergh's call for continued isolation in WWII? 10 points
    The outcome of WWI, really. The fact that America stayed neutral during the first world war is what helped to boost the economy afterwards. (the roaring twenties) Plus, the great depression kind of made the government wary of intervention in European affairs.

    Why we use PNP power transistor in Isolation circuit? ?

    The signal from optocoupler is first given to PNP power transistor


    before giving it to Relay. Why is it so?Why we use PNP power transistor in Isolation circuit? ?
    It is to use the small amount of current from the opto sensor to control a larger current that is needed for the relay operation. Why we use PNP power transistor in Isolation circuit? ?
    Opto's typically can't handle alot of current. You use the exterior BJT because of the amount of current that is necessary to switch the relay.





    Also, the choice of PNP over NPN is due to switching speed. PNP transistors are typically faster than NPN transistors.





    If you pulse an NPN with a squarewave signal and look at the output, it's ';rounded'; at the corners, whereas with typical PNP transistors the signal is not as distorted.

    The choice of PNP versus NPN is probably arbeitrary. The signal level from the optocoupler is probably inadequate to energize the relay, so he power transistor is required as a gain stage.

    What is meant by the statement ';living things do not exist in isolation';?

    It means that no man is an island.What is meant by the statement ';living things do not exist in isolation';?
    It means that all living things require some form of social contact with their own species.





    Fish = School


    Humans = Families


    Wolves = Pack


    Cows = Herd





    etc...What is meant by the statement ';living things do not exist in isolation';?
    Organic (living) things depend on other living things for food, reproduction, and/or social structure.


    If there was only one living thing in the world - or outer space - it would eventually die and that would be that.


    Another meaning is that to be vital (living) we cannot thrive without company, without social interaction, without relationships.
    It means that living things do not live in a closed system. They have external agents acting upon them and networking with them.
    It means that each kind of living thing is dependent upon other kinds of living things for survival. No species, dropped into a non-biological, purely geological environment could survive for long.

  • How does technology lead to social isolation?

    have any body thought of that before? how technology leads to social isolation? what do you think is the reason for thatHow does technology lead to social isolation?
    Of course technology leads to social isolation in some situations. For instance, the people holed up in their houses for days on end with game systems. Being on the internet constantly...I could go on and on. I have though of it before, and the impact on our society as a whole, but we have to change with it. There are positive aspects, too, such as making deadlines at work via working 'over' at home, e-mailing and IMs to people who you wouldn't normally be able to contact due to high long distance costs, etc.How does technology lead to social isolation?
    Everything we used to do that required human interaction, technology is allowing us to do without the human interaction. Without human interaction, you slowly become removed from society, and eventually become isolated.
    For example, before the advent of yahoo answers you would ask this question to a friend. Now you are asking strangers?
    a person doesnt have to rely on going outside to complete daily activities.the person can stay in the whole time.

    Where is Mental Isolation shown in ';Frankenstein'; and in ';Macbeth';?

    From the top of my head





    In Frankenstein both the monster and Frankenstein are mentally isolated. Frankenstein will not tell anyone about his creation and therefore causes the deaths of him family, friends and eventually Elizabeth. It is not until the end that he tells his tale to the authorities but that was never really accepted so his whole story is only really heard by Walton.





    The monster isloates himself mentally in the sense that he relizes that he is a monster and no longer compares himself to that of humans. By thinking about this, he also isolates himself physically as well, moving to the artic where no humans would find him.





    In Macbeth, mental isolation can be shown by MacBeth's hidden plans. He does not tell his wife about his plans to kill Banquo and does it with out her knowing.





    hope this helped you some. CheersWhere is Mental Isolation shown in ';Frankenstein'; and in ';Macbeth';?
    I can't find a quote because don't have hard copy but


    in Frankenstein Victor was isolated due to his strange scientific beliefs that went against the nature such as death. He self isolated himself as slowly his Scientific practices made him believe he himself was above nature





    Macbeth was isolated when his rule started to come to an end and he became obsessed with others plotting against him.Where is Mental Isolation shown in ';Frankenstein'; and in ';Macbeth';?
    I think that a good example of mental isolation is the fact that Victor Frankenstein has to keep quiet for so long about his creation. He is unable to share what he has done as his intentions were considered noble.

    When did the us policy of isolation end?

    When the US declared war on Germany and joined the First World War. That was the first time the US Army was send abroad for any reason other than self-defense of the national borders.When did the us policy of isolation end?
    Right after Bill Clinton didn't do anything while we were being attacked. He is the reason that we are in this war with terriorist (not the Iraq war). It didn't start with 9/11. We were attacked many times while he was in office. The terriorist found out that we were weak while he was in office.When did the us policy of isolation end?
    Our isolation ended with Teddy Roosevelt. first after the French failed miserbly in building the Panama Canal, he got a war started in Columbia to get the Itmus of Panama to break off from Columbia and form its own government that was a proxy of the U.S. Teddy then finished what the French started with the stipulation that the canal was U.S. property. Lets not forget THe Spanish American war in Cuba that was really started by yellow journalism. Then the real kicker was his (teddy's) decision to sail the U.S. Navy Dreadnought fleet around the world to show the world that we were ready to kick *** and take names. He called that walking softly but carring a big stick. From that point on America lost its isolation from the world.

    Can in-the-ear noise isolation earphones damage your hearing?

    i just bought these earphones that are noise isolated (they have the rubber caps). I dont put my music really loud. I have an Ipod nano and i put the volume about 1/4 full, if not less. can that damage your hearing significantly???Can in-the-ear noise isolation earphones damage your hearing?
    as long as the music is not loud you'll be fine.





    also dont u just feel sorry for those ppl who walk 20 feet from you and you can still hear their music through their earphones? in a couple of years the wont have any ears

  • Explain the 2 types of speciation and include what types of isolation produces them?

    Allopatric Speciation


    Sympatric Speciation


    Geographical Isolation


    Sexual IsolationExplain the 2 types of speciation and include what types of isolation produces them?
    Allopatric Speciation is speciation that occurs when there is a natural barrier that seperates a population. For example, the forming of the Grand Canyon split a population of squirrels in half and because they are now in different locations they will evolve into two seperate species. Large bodies of water, canyons, etc. can all be included in the ';natural barrier'; category.





    Sympatric Speciation is speciation that occurs with no physical barrier, but rather the organism just chooses different parts of the same area. For example, going back to the squirrel example: if a population of squirrels all live on one island with NO barrier, then most likely they will no speciate. However, if one day some of the squirrels choose to live at the top of the trees and the other squirrels want to live on the ground-- well then, they can speciate. ';Sym'; means ';same';-- so it's speciation occuring in the SAME area.Explain the 2 types of speciation and include what types of isolation produces them?
    It's a bit like a character in a movie going off and having adventures that change him so drastically that when he returns, the folks in his hometown no longer recognize the way he looks and behaves. The biological equivalent is ';allopatric speciation,'; an evolutionary process in which one species divides into two because the original homogenous population has become separated and both groups diverge from each other.





    In their separate niches, the two groups go their own evolutionary ways, accumulating different gene mutations, being subjected to different selective pressures, experiencing different historical events, finally becoming incapable of interbreeding should they ever come together again. For many years this has been regarded as the main process by which new species arise.





    Often this type of speciation occurs in three steps. First, the populations become physically separated, often by a long, slow geological process like an uplift of land, the movement of a glacier, or formation of a body of water. Next, the separated populations diverge, through changes in mating tactics or use of their habitat. Third, they become reproductively separated such that they cannot interbreed and exchange genes.





    Under normal conditions, genes in a given population are exchanged through breeding, so that even if some variation occurs, it is limited by this ';gene flow.'; But gene flow is interrupted if the population becomes divided into two groups. One way this happens is by ';vicariance,'; geographical change that can be slow or rapid.





    An example of vicariance is the separation of marine creatures on either side of Central America when the Isthmus of Panama closed about 3 million years ago, creating a land bridge between North and South America. Nancy Knowlton of the Smithsonian Tropical Research Institute in Panama has been studying this geological event and its effects on populations of snapping shrimp. She and her colleagues found that shrimp on one side of the isthmus appeared almost identical to those on the other side -- having once been members of the same population.





    But when she put males and females from different sides of the isthmus together, they snapped aggressively instead of courting. They had become separate species, just as the theory would predict.





    Unlike the previous modes, sympatric speciation does not require large-scale geographic distance to reduce gene flow between parts of a population. How could a randomly mating population reduce gene flow and speciate? Merely exploiting a new niche may automatically reduce gene flow with individuals exploiting the other niche. This may occasionally happen when, for example, herbivorous insects try out a new host plant.





    For example, 200 years ago, the ancestors of apple maggot flies laid their eggs only on hawthorns鈥攂ut today, these flies lay eggs on hawthorns (which are native to America) and domestic apples (which were introduced to America by immigrants and bred). Females generally choose to lay their eggs on the type of fruit they grew up in, and males tend to look for mates on the type of fruit they grew up in. So hawthorn flies generally end up mating with other hawthorn flies and apple flies generally end up mating with other apple flies. This means that gene flow between parts of the population that mate on different types of fruit is reduced. This host shift from hawthorns to apples may be the first step toward sympatric speciation鈥攊n fewer than 200 years, some genetic differences between these two groups of flies have evolved.
    Allopatric speciation involves a geographic barrier. gene flow stops due to the barrier, and variations arise from genetic drift and directional selection. Types of isolation: introduction of a geographical barrier, for example a river that has been redirected and is now seperating members of a population. (im sure you can think of other examples like that)





    Sympatric speciation occurs when members of a population acheive reproductive isolation without a geographical barrier being present. Best example being found in plants, by means of polyploidy. Also possible by hybridization between two species resulting in doubled chromosome number. back crosses with diploid parents result in sterile offspring. hope that helps.

    Do you belong to any art community or you work in isolation. WHY?

    I belong to several online art communities and find them very helpful and overwhelmingly for the most part, very supportive.


    Constructive criticism-emphasis on constructive-is not only helpful, I think its necessary for growth as an artist, whatever medium or style a person works in.

    Practical use of isolation transformer also demonstrate by figure?

    isolation transformer is used to isolate circuits and users from the AC line.





    Most transformers are isolation transformers, as there is no physical connection between the primary and secondary windings. So any power supply that uses a transformer is an example of an isolation transformer.

    Need to make isolation platforms for my stereo gear. Where can I get maple lumber?

    Look up local lumber companies by doing an internet search on Yahoo or Google.Need to make isolation platforms for my stereo gear. Where can I get maple lumber?
    First, attempt Lowe's or Home Depot for Maple lumber....then for more custom cuts of wood, you will need to find a lumber store like your Dad used to go to....someone who has been in the business since the 60's or 70's......





    Lastly, don't close your mind to plastic or store bought/internet bought....the new technology isn't made of maple anymore.Need to make isolation platforms for my stereo gear. Where can I get maple lumber?
    Don't bother - ';microphonics'; is just a buzz-word to sell you crap and keep people buying silly trinkets that don't so anything.





    The amount of distortion is so minute - on the order of 0.001% added due to vibration - that even covering your gear in lead sheets won't make an audible difference.





    Also avoid:


    $1,000 power cables - it plugs into $0.10 romex in the walls


    $2,000 speaker cables - you'll never hear a thing


    $450 wooden preamp knobs - no joke, they sell them


    $100 aluminum foil - supposed to reduce stray fields - ya, right


    $200 rocks - supposed to ';deaden'; speakers - duh?


    The list goes on forever.





    Stick with decent equipment, decent wires, and the best speakers you can afford - speakers make the singly biggest difference in sound. By the way, a VERY good speaker system produces about 5%THD - believe me, maple won't help.
    You can get maple lumber at almost any lumberyard, call around. If you are making the isolation platforms to stop harmonic distortion then also check out places that sell different types and densities of foam rubber so that it isolates the vibration created by the speakers (putting the foam under the components and not the speakers of coarse).

  • Isolation and compound excercises?

    Whats the difference between the two types of exercises? How do you perform each type? In both exercises, are there different times you are supposed to contract the muscles?Isolation and compound excercises?
    Compound exercises are exercises which use two or more joints in the movement. For example, a push-up - uses the shoulder joint and the elbow joint.





    Isolation exercises are exercises which involve only one joint. Eg, bicep curl - only uses the elbow joint.





    If you are new to strength training, I would suggest concentrating on compound exercises for a while. It will give you a good base to work from. Then you can do some isolation exercises to work on muscle groups that you think need it.





    The basis of any good strength training routine uses the 4 BIG compound exercises.... Bench Press, Chin-ups, Squats and Deadlifts.





    Hope this answers your question!

    Give an example of behavioral isolation?

    Give an example of behavioral isolation.Give an example of behavioral isolation?
    For example, there are two different species of cricket that would be indistinguishable unless you heard their mating song: they are of a noticeably different pitch. A behaviorally isolated creature will only be able to conduct successful courtship with an animal with similar mating behavior.Give an example of behavioral isolation?
    Cheetahs and lions.





    There is no mechanical isolation between these two species of cat so if forced (or manipulated in a laboratory) an individual from each population is able to successfully mate and reproduce.





    This doesn't happen in the wild however. Why? Because a behavioral isolation mechanism exists between their respective courting rituals.

    What is Speciation without physical isolation?

    A speciation in which new species evolve from a single ancestral species while inhabiting the same geographic region is Sympatric speciation.





    Sympatric speciation is more common in plants. For instance, parent plants produce offspring that are polyploid. Hence, the offspring live in the same environment as their parents but are reproductively isolated.





    Another example is the rare sympatric speciation in animals, which is the divergence of resident and transient Orca in the northeast Pacific. These two groups of Orca occur in the same habitat but are avoiding each other and they do not interbreed. They have different diets, vocal behaviour, and social structures.





    Thus,though the plants/animals in the same region speciation occurs.

    Want to know about ground isolation in power electronics any one will help?

    Electronics work on DC supply and one of the leg of DC supply (Normally +ve terminal is made common) is connected to earth. This common terminal is at times not connected to earth and kept isolated. This is done so that this point remains floating. This is called ground isolation in power electronics.Want to know about ground isolation in power electronics any one will help?
    I don't know what you mean really. But if you mean it dose not require an earth protection than it must have a low voltage or be completely in-cased so no conductive parts are exposedWant to know about ground isolation in power electronics any one will help?
    Well, one interpretation of your question has to do with ground loops, and the steering of ground currents when you have switching circuits where very large transient currents flow in the return paths, which are a common node called ground. An example of this is in the design of switching power supply. In the physical layout of the circuitry on a PCB, it is very important to place the components which have very high transient loop currents such that:


    1. The loop areas are minimized.


    2. Use short, wide traces (on thick copper)


    3. Avoid vias (they add loop inductance)


    4. If you have to use vias, use enough of them, and use large vias.


    5. Keep the quiet ground of the controller IC away from the high current ground. These two grounds must be connected together so that the large currents don't cause voltage drops within the ground path for the quiet ground, otherwise operation will be erratic.





    A 2nd interpretation is simply ';floating grounds'; where the output voltage ground is completely isolated from the input power ground. This is done typically by using magnetic coupling via transformers. So power supplies can be divided into two types: Common return (ground) or Isolated return (ground).

  • What has the US isolation got to do with World war II?

    The US was in the warWhat has the US isolation got to do with World war II?
    Before advent of the industrial revolution and advances in transportation the United States could exist as an isolated country. But with advances in transportation and industry, the United States shifted from an agricultural based economy to an industrial economy and thus become more involved with the rest of the world for economic reasons (customers, resources, etc...).





    Today鈥檚 argument that WWII could have been prevented by the United States in 1939 is false. In 1939 Hitler already had his greatest military in the world and had not yet attacked the USSR. Thus the United States with France and Britain would have faced the full brunt of the Nazi War Machine...leaving Stalin and the USSR free to march into Western Europe after the Western forces destroyed one another. Thus the early attack theory when truly analyzed could have been disastrous for the Untied States and left Western Europe dominated by the USSR and Communism. The conditions in Germany that aided Hitler in his rise to power go far back into Europe...Franco-prussian War and beyond.





    Iraq absolutely does not compare to the Pre-WWII Germany model鈥t compares to Yugoslavia under Tito. Yugoslavia was a sectarian country held together by a brutal dictator鈥hen the dictator was removed the country fell into civil war resulting in far more deaths and destruction than under the dictator.





    The Saudi Arabians were always threatened by Sadam and his Iraq and needed the protection of the United States鈥or such protection the Saudis supplied the United States with reliable low cost petroleum. With the fear of Sadam removed the price of Oil has sky rocketed.





    Very little study goes into how Hitler took total control over a conservative Christian country and turned it into the Nazi Nation. The use of propaganda, blaming another religion for Germany's economic woes, extreme patriotism, etc... As President Eisenhower stated: ';If Nazism come to America, it will come wrapped in an American flag';.What has the US isolation got to do with World war II?
    O.K. so isolationism means we didn't care about other countries, only ourselfs. so what happened was that no one cared about germany(the loser of WWI) who owed England and france lots of money, and conditions got worse there, the germans were pissed of so they elected hitler, who started attacking countries and no one cared, so he kept going.





    so because no country was a world leader hitler was put in power and started WWII
    Somewhat like now, the general mood of the country in the 1930's was somewhat isolationist. US business, of course, has never been isolationist, and the ties between the Navy Department and Big Business have often been problematic. But the general mood of a country still feeling the effects of the previous war as regards military matters overseas tended to be ';a pox on all their houses.';


    That did not extend to ignoring Japanese excesses in China, where Chiang Kai-Shek and especially Mrs. Chiang were successful in lobbying for the economic sanctions which eventually forced the attack on Pearl Harbor. The mood was still strong enough in the spring and summer of 1941 that when the US Navy and Germany's Kriegsmarine began shooting at each other, it was kept secret from the public. The American public of course thought they were more isolationist, and isolated, than was the case with government activity, but one could get away with that sort of thing in those days.
    we didn't want to get invloved with foreign affairs, so we stayed out of it until we got attacked at Pearl Harbor.

    What type of reproductive isolation has occurred when a barrier, such as a river, separates two populations?

    the founder effect is when some individuals of a population are forced away from the original population, eg by a rise in sea level creating an island, so there is a smaller range of alleles and the new population is much less diverse.What type of reproductive isolation has occurred when a barrier, such as a river, separates two populations?

    Is it possible to be a Jew in Isolation of a Jewish community?

    If someone studied torah - but did not mix with any jewish community - though observes everything. Could such a person be considered a Jew?Is it possible to be a Jew in Isolation of a Jewish community?
    Of course they can, but why would they? You can become an American citizen and not live among Americans, but why would you? Why not enjoy the benefits and protections provided to American citizens? Judaism is about life here on earth, not something in the future that no one can know anything about. If it's warm fuzzies you're looking for, stick with Christianity! It's not easy to be a Jew. You would have many more obligations to fulfill with no promise of rewards.





    You can easily be a Christian in total isolation because Christianity is about personal salvation. Judaism is a communal group that works together for each other's benefit.





    From ';Judaism for Everyone'; by Rabbi Shmuley Boteach:


    Some people believe that the principal goal of man is personal salvation. To them man鈥檚 first concern must always be to climb the mountain of righteousness for himself, to ensure that his every act and thought is just and pure. Judaism rejects this view. From the vantage point of Judaism, it is not personal salvation but world redemption that is man鈥檚 first responsibility. Therefore, when man comes before God to express his deepest desires, when he calls forth his most private thoughts, he must do so in the company of the community. For although his words remain private, his prayers must not be only for himself.


    .Is it possible to be a Jew in Isolation of a Jewish community?
    A person is Jewish if: their mother is Jewish, or they convert to Judaism. If they are in one of these two categories then they are Jewish, even if they never meet another Jew in their entire lives and even if they never pick up a prayer book.





    FIFI - how strange. I can only assume there must be two countries, both called Israel, because certainly the one you describe is not the one in which I used to live. So either you have been living somewhere entirely different and have got the name wrong, or else you are a little liar who has never set foot in the real Israel.





    Gosh, now I wonder which of these it is....
    I don't know...but non-Ashkenazi or non-White Jews are considered minorities without equal rights in Israel...for eg. the Arab Jews and the Ethiopian Jews...the current state of Israel is a racist state. You're a Jew if you practise and believe in Judaism...but know this, alot of Jews (Israelis or not) are not Zionists, and there are even Rabbis who have denounced Zionism, stating it as racist. Modern Zionism has barely anything to do with the Torah or Judaism.
    Of course. Why wouldn't they? Judaism is a religion, not who your friends are.
    You're Jewish if you're mother is Jewish.





    To LIVE as a Jew should, you need to have a Jewish community. Certain rituals require a group of Jews. Traditional Torah study is done in a group, or at least with a partner.





    The medieval Jewish sage, Maimonides, taught that a Jew depends on his/her community to sustain his/her Judaism.





    Hillel, the Talmudic sage, summarised the whole of Judaism as ';Love of your fellow Jew';. You'd need some fellow Jews around to do that.





    Judaism is gregarious and communal, not isolationist in nature.





    Besides, where will you get good chicken matzah ball soup if you don't live in a Jewish community ; )
    ..I agree with Fifi....half my family is Jewish on my Dad's side so I'm not....Thank God cos I condemn Israeli Ethnic Cleansing and Genocide.








    It's Bizarre, Primitive, Hocus Pocus and YHWE was the biggest Warmonger in History....Hence the Jewish Persecution of Palestinians
    The answer is yes. Those who say that you're Jewish by virtue of your mother being Jewish are correct; those who say that it's about what you do, not who your friends are, are also correct.





    However, it is **extremely difficult** to fully practice Judaism in the total absence of a community. In order to say certain prayers, for example, there must be a minimum of ten adult males (or ten people, depending on your level of observance). Without other people around, celebrating Passover would be awfully lonely, and observing the High Holydays would be virtually impossible. Having said this, I recently read a story about the last Jew in an Eastern European city. I don't remember where he was, but he and another man were the only two Jews in the town (and apparently hated each other) until one of them died. This person is clearly now totally isolated from a Jewish community, but is most certainly Jewish.
    no. you will be a idiot wasting time
