Gout and Diet. Gouty arthritis is usually an extremely painful attack with a rapid onset of joint inflammation. The inflammation is precipitated by the deposition of uric acid crystals in the lining of the joint (synovial lining) and the fluid within the joint. Intense joint inflammation occurs when white blood cells engulf the crystals of uric acid and release chemicals that promote inflammation.
Which way does the electric field point around the positive terminal of an alkaline battery? E.20 The electric field points away from the positive terminalâs surface. 21. Which has the stronger electric field between its two terminals: a 1.5-V AA battery or a standard 9-V battery? Explain. E.21 The 9-V battery has the larger voltage gradient and therefore the stronger electric field because its two terminals have a greater voltage difference and a shorter distance between them. 22. You have 100 AA batteries.
The batteryâs positive [+] terminal is normally at the outer edge and the negative [â] is towards the inside. The third contact is the thermistor, which monitors battery temperature. For a quick test, the thermistor does not need to be hooked up. The fourth contact, if available, provides a code for battery identification. Figure 3 illustrates typical contact positioning.
