What does it mean to run a kite?
To get the kite up in the air far enough for the wind to take it, rather than being subject to ground turbulence, someone usually has to run fast while letting out string so the kite can get higher. More applicable when there is very little wind near the ground (under 50 feet or so), but also applicable in and near cities (especially cities like Chicago) where buildings channel wind in gusts and crosswinds that make the kite very difficult to fly with any kind of stability until you can get it above most of that turbulence. IMPORTANT NOTE: DON'T FLY KITES WITHIN 200 YARDS OF POWER LINES! Also, beware of kite eating trees (just ask Charlie Brown)
How hot is 37degrees Celsius in Fahrenheit?
About 98. Near enough that you don't have a dangerous fever.
Can you tell just by looking at two line plots which data set has the greater mean?
No. Definitely not if the lines intersected near their means.
What the purpose of perpendicular lines in basketball?
The lines on a basketball court assist with the rules. The half court line indicates where the game starts. The lines on the outside indicate the out-of-bounds lines. The "arc" near the basketball goal indicate the distance that extra points can be made. The small circle near the basketball goal indicates where free-throws happen and the lines that converge from the small circle towards the basket is called the key. During free-throws, players aren't allowed inside of the key. Additionally, during regular play, offensive players can't stay in the key for longer than 3 consecutive seconds.
Lines of longitude are not parallel why?
because they merge at the poles... they seem to be parallel near the equtor region..n remenber parallel lines nver meet each other... n due to the shape of our earth these lines merge at poles...
Is it safe to fly a kite near resendential street power lines?
No.
Is living near power lines dangerous?
Very dangerous. You should avoid these lines at all cost and immediately call you power company.
Where can you find insulators near power lines?
look up the pole
Is it safe to raise kids under high voltage power lines?
There is no scientific evidence to suggest that living near power lines causes any kind of health problems.
What is use of substaion near grid station?
A power substation is used to reduce the voltage from high voltage power lines to a voltage that is less dangerous that you can use in a house for example. It is less costly to transmit electrical energy over long distances using high voltage.

Is it dangerous to build a house near a fault line?
Yes, it is dangerous as earthquakes mostly occur near fault lines, which may cause serious losses and injury. The soil might also not be suitable for building houses there too, as it might be too soft.
Where is the glue for the kite on moshi monsters?
you get it from near the ship over the rainbow
Who is more likely to be hurt a bird sitting on a electricity wire or a boy flying a kite near an electricity wire?
Only the boy, flying a kite near an electricity wire, is in danger of being electrocuted. Especially if the kite string is damp, and the boy is standing on wet grass and wearing damp footwear.
Why do you think compass might not work near storm power lines?
Compasses do not work well in the presence of of electromagnetic fields.
Are you opposed to nuclear power?
No, nuclear power is a decent source of energy, depending upon the reactor design and siting. Locating reactors over fault lines or near ocean shore lines seems unwise.
What are the colored balls on power lines usually near water about the size of a basketball?
The colored balls on power lines are a warning indicator for low-flying aircrafts. The FAA mandates their existence as some sources say power line strikes are the leading cause of helicopter crashes.
