A slope-intercept form equation is when it is set up y=mx+b. Y = - 3x + 2. In order to go from one form to another, all you have to do is change the order of the given numbers.
A mercury switch (also known as a mercury tilt switch) is a switch which opens and closes an electrical circuit through a small amount of liquid mercury.Contents.he envelope may also contain air, an inert gas, or a vacuum. Gravity is constantly pulling the drop of mercury to the lowest point in the envelope. When the switch is tilted in the appropriate direction, the mercury touches a set of contacts, thus completing the electrical circuit through those contacts.
Mercury Use in Switches and Relays summarizes the use of mercury in switches and relays sold as individual components and within final products, such as automobiles, space heaters, or pumps. It does not include mercury-added switches and relays sold prior to January 1, 2001 or exported outside of the U.S. 2  Reported data includes only mercury that is used in the product, and does not include mercury emitted during mining, manufacturing, or other points in the products' life cycle.
