Q. Why should a series motor always start with a load? Why should a shunt motor always start without a load?

A. Series motors are designed to generate large starting torque. They draw heavy current producing 2.25 times the max rated torque at start-up. When there is no load connected, speed of a series motor increases to the point where the motor draws excessive current. Usually, either the bearings are damaged or the windings fly out of the slots in the armature. There is a danger to both equipment and personnel. This precaution is primarily for large motors. Small motors, such as those used in electric hand drills, have enough internal friction to load themselves. If the load on the shunt motor is increased, the motor tends to slow down. When this happens, the counter emf generated in the armature decreases. This causes a corresponding decrease… [cont.]

What novel in the Temperance Brennan series should I start with?
Q. I've started to watch reruns of Bones on USA network and I think it says that the series was inspired by a writer named Kathy Reichs and that Bones is based on the character Temperance Brennan Novels. Does this series go in order? Is there one book I should read first? If you're a fan of Kathy Reichs or have read her books please let me know. Thanks!

A. You should read them in order. They still make sense if you don't but things happen and stuff mainly about Temperance's personal life sort of continue through out the novels and they make most sense if you read them in order.

What is the difference between TV series complete box set and complete collection box set?
Q. This questions is in regards to ANIME. I want to buy complete series of some shows, but its showing "TV Series Complete Box Set" and the "Complete Collection DVD box set". The prices are difference, but when I look at the info, it still the same. They both have the same amount of episodes, and are made by the same company. The only difference is the suffix to the tittle which I mentioned above.

A. Ok i'm really gonna stop trolling here and kinda answer your question. The majority of the time when box sets are released they are not only just released once. One fine example of this was the release of the Cowboy Bebop series several years ago with a large price upwards of 120+. However when they released it again as a collections disc set they lowered the price considerably. With the issues of almost identical box covers one being more expensive usually its when they cut alot of the junk and extras out is when the price is lowered, or even when they reduce the amount of discs within a box set by maximizing the disc space they have I.E. cutting out extra features of more than 2 language sets or director commentary.
