You can insulate it with a higher R factor blanket, but to be honest tank style heaters aren't efficient in the first place, if you want to consider high efficiency water heaters look at some of the options currently available.

How can enegery loss be reduced?

energy is never lost or reduced. energy can only be transferred. this can be possible by fiction or an outside force acting upon it.


Can the load shedding be reduced if each one of us acts on the number of ways you have counted to reduced energy loss?

by saving energy in homes etc.......


To control water loss the size of the stomata is reduced by the?

Guard Cells


Can the loadsheeding be reduced if each one of us acts on the number of ways you have counted to reduce energy loss?

Yes, you could possibly reduce load sheeding if you take time to cut back on energy loss. You can encourage your customers to cut back during peak demand times.


Can the loadshedding be reduced if each one if us acts on the number of ways counted to reduce energy loss?

no


Is condensation a energy loss or gain?

Condensation is typically considered an energy loss because it releases energy as heat when water vapor changes to liquid water. This energy is known as latent heat of condensation.


Which form of DCPIP reduced or oxidized is higher in energy?

The reduced form of DCPIP (blue) is higher in energy compared to the oxidized form (colorless). The reduction of DCPIP involves gaining electrons and energy, while oxidation involves loss of electrons and energy.

A hot water tank loses thermal energy even when lagged how could the energy loss be slowed down?

Thicker lagging, cooler water, warmer position for the tank.


As a result of the plant reducing water losswhat other process will be slowed down?

If the process of water loss (transpiration) is reduced in plants, the process of water absorption will also be reduced. This happens to maintain an equillebrium in the plant cells.


Why do plants in dry areas have leaves with reduced surface area?

many plants developed a wazy surface cuticle to reduce water loss


What effect does friction have on a machines efficiency?

Friction can reduce a machine's efficiency by causing energy loss in the form of heat and sound. This can result in increased wear and tear on the machine, leading to reduced performance and potentially higher energy consumption. Minimizing friction through lubrication and proper maintenance can help improve a machine's efficiency.
