Carbon Cycle Chemical Reactions Involved: Photosynthesis: Air and water molecules and the energy from the sun to produce a simple sugar such as glucose and oxygen molecules as a by product. During photosynthesis plants use carbon dioxide and produce oxygen.
Similar to shore power for ships, a ground power unit (GPU) may be used to supply electric power for an aircraft on the ground, to sustain interior lighting, ventilation and other requirements before starting of the main engines or the aircraft auxiliary power unit (APU).
An automotive battery is a rechargeable battery that supplies electric energy to an automobile. Traditionally, this is called an SLI, for starting, lighting, ignition, and its main purpose is to start the engine. Once the engine is running, power for the car is supplied by the alternator. Typically, starting discharges less than three per cent of the battery capacity.
