Si usome tu hio article uwache kujiabisha na click baitKenyan Newspaper peddling fake news!
"Challenging"??
We had long taken over.
lazma kieleweke!Clearly you lack some basic knowledge of physics.
In physics, "energy can neither be created nor destroyed but it can be transformed from one form to another" (1st law of thermodynamics).
Anytime we make this transformation, we tend to lose some energy into other forms. Electric motors convert electrical energy directly into mechanical with little energy loss, which classifies it (electrical energy) as high quality energy.
A high quality energy source is the one that can easily be transferred into other forms with little loss.
In contrary, diesel engines have a slew of processes to go through to form some mechanical movements to the wheels. Firstly, chemical energy (diesel) is converted into heat (energy is lost due to heat dissipation) to form potential energy (piston moving up and down). This movement of pistons creates a lot of friction (energy is lost due to friction, heat dissipation and vibration).
At this point we haven't get to the wheels yet.
Pistons then move the crankshaft (friction) which goes through some gear mechanism (friction) and lastly that energy is transferred to the wheels. At that point the efficiency is already lost by 70%.
Traction motors (induction motors) don't use "basic magnet" (perhaps you meant to say permanent magnet), they constantly "create" magnetism when alternating current is applied.
What do you mean by strength?
It's because we can stored some chemical energy (fuel) in a small container that fits into the equipment. With electrical powered equipment we'll need a large amount of batteries, powerful enough to run those machines for some times, at the moment its impractical. Electric trains don't have that problem as they move in a straight line along the power source.
A better term would be magnetic flux.
Nikifika NBO nadhani ntafikia kilimani, hii sehemu nmeipenda sana...imekaa poa ,nmeona magari yenye plate number za kenya mengi hapa mjini nikajisemea ni biashara au wamefuata starehe Dar
Panaelewekaeti umetaja kisumu!?[emoji79]yesu rudi upesi!
coz me wht i knw is tht, only 10% of kisumu is considered as Slums.. tht is Nyalenda, Manyatta and a small section of Kondole estate, the rest is pure tranquil and leafy affluent homes..

👍🏽kabisa! broPanaeleweka
Wale jamaa wanaakili sana aisee, halafu hawana papara kabisa. Mi nimekuwa nazisoma chess moves zao kwa miaka mingi sasa.Things Fall Apart
Kenya nzima kuna taka kila kona, ukiona wamepost vipicha ambavyo havina taka ujue kwamba hiyo picha ni ya enzi za ufunguzi.Mammae , Taka rundo hadi fuso upande wa pili halionekani, angalia urefu wa huyo mtu na bado kafunikwa na rundo la taka, hizo taka zimemwagwa mara moja hapo au zimetupwa kidogo kidogo na kurundikana hivyo, hawazioni zinavyozidi? What a loss.
Hiyo sio ya Kenya[emoji23][emoji23]View attachment 2300510
kisa..... ni Citizen Newpaper ya tanganyika na wala sio AfricaBusinessMagazineSi usome tu hio article uwache kujiabisha na click bait
alafu asante sana 👏🏽👏🏽 KENPAULITE kwa kutuzindua tusome hio article yote hadi mwisho!Si usome tu hio article uwache kujiabisha na click bait
wacha kuharisha humu ati Mombasa port ina handle 63.5 mln tons? Kwahiyo hata Durban port haioni ndani?alafu asante sana 👏🏽👏🏽 KENPAULITE kwa kutusindua tusome hio article yote hadi mwisho!
yaani hawa wadanganyika niwajanjez sana..😆
..hivi Port of Mombasa quadruples×4 Dar Es Saalam.. ie. 11million tonnes against 63million tonnes!🤔
Tony254 ukowapi uone hii, na rafiki yako The best 007 sijui pia nae kama ako hapa, yani yule mzee wa $150b gdp

Mzee kusoma hujui au nini? Mombasa port huwa ina handle 35 million tonnes kila mwaka. Hio data uliyokoleza kwa rangi nyekundu ni data ya up to September (9 months). Na imeandikwa vizuri sana.wacha kuharisha humu ati Mombasa port ina handle 63.5 mln tons? Kwahiyo hata Durban port haioni ndani?
Mombasa port sees marginal cargo growth
WEDNESDAY NOVEMBER 24 2021

Pedestrian walk next to a Container Freight Station (CFS) along the Portrietz road in Mombasa on September 21, 2021.
Mombasa port continues to reel from the effects of the Covid-19 pandemic, recording minimal cargo growth in the first nine months of 2021.
The port handled 26.17 million tonnes of cargo this year up to September compared to 25.05 million tonnes in the corresponding period in 2020.
In the period under review, the Mombasa port witnessed increased volumes in container traffic registering 1.1 million containers against 1 million last year.
Acting Kenya Ports Authority (KPA) managing director John Mwangemi said notable resilience has been observed this year and expressed optimism the port will record significant growth in the coming few months.
“We remain optimistic that as the year comes to a close, the port will continue handling more cargo to further increase the positive performance,” said Mr Mwangemi.
While making remarks during the annual KPA Corporate Golf Tournament played over the weekend in Mombasa, Mr Mwangemi said the ongoing key infrastructural projects in various port facilities will ensure more efficiency to attract more business in future.
“The construction of the second container terminal (CT2) Phase II is on course which once completed will add more space of more than 450 twenty-foot equivalent units (Teus) thus ensuring there is no congestion at the facility,” said Mr Mwangemi.
Once completed, the new CT2 will enable the ports to handle post-panamax-plus vessels to grow container capacity from 1.65 million Teus to 2.2 million, which will give the port an edge over that of Dar es salaam.
Regarding the new Kipevu Oil Terminal, the facility is expected to be completed next month. The new oil facility which is bigger and modern will have facilities for offloading crude oil, refined petroleum and liquified petroleum gas (LPG) and is due for completion by end of the year.
"Once complete, KPA will have a terminal consisting of four berths capable of berthing four vessels of up to 200,000 deadweights tonnes (DWT) at ago, to benefit from economies of scale and reduction of demurrage,” said the acting MD.
Apart from facilities at the Port of Mombasa, KPA is also investing heavily in Lamu and Kisumu ports where it is banking on the latter to increase in business between Kenya and its neighbours via Lake Victoria.
Already developments and rehabilitation of the Port of Kisumu have been completed while in Lamu, the first berth is operational while second and third berths are expected to start operating next year.
"Since Lamu port came into operation on May 20 this year has so far received nine vessels. Plans are underway to procure additional equipment to ensure efficient delivery of services," he said.
