    Why cant we use Starch as alternate source

    In the course we are saying that cellulose and starch can be used as an alternative for crude oil for polymers. However the focus is on the amount of energy it takes to convert Cellulose into glucose. If that is the case why cant we use starch ? Is it cheaper than cellulose

    Motor Effect & Force between current carrying conductors

    Hi Guys, When parallel currents are in the same direction, there is an attraction between them and when they are in different directions, they repel. I understand the fact that this is a follow on of the motor effect, since the force is towards the area where the field is weakened. But i...
