What are the 4 types of stress that influenced rock behavior? When the plates are pulled or pushed together, stress occurs. Four types of stresses affect the Earth’s crust: compression, tension, shear and confining stress. What is a real life example of tensional stress? A prime example of tensional stress is the mid-Atlantic ridge, where […]
Why is Aluminium chloride AlCl3?
Why is Aluminium chloride AlCl3? What is Aluminium Chloride (AlCl3)? Aluminium chloride is also sometimes referred to as aluminium trichloride or aluminium (III) chloride. The compound is formed when aluminium and chlorine are reacted together. Its chemical formula is written as AlCl3. Why AlF3 is ionic? In between AlCl3 and AlF3, cation (Al) is the […]
What do we call the height of a wave?
What do we call the height of a wave? wave is a called the crest, and the low point is called the trough. The distance between successive crests or troughs is called the wavelength. The height of a wave is the amplitude.… What is the distance between two crests called? The highest surface part of […]
What is the most conductive metal on earth?
What is the most conductive metal on earth? Silver Is gold wire real gold? Answer: Gold-filled wire is a tube of gold, (usually 14k, sometimes 12k or 10k), that has been filled with a base metal, (generally pure jeweler’s brass), and the two are securely bonded together with heat and pressure. How can you tell […]
Which of the following is a major advantage of the fMRI?
Which of the following is a major advantage of the fMRI? The big advantage of fMRI is that it doesn’t use radiation like X-rays, computed tomography (CT) and positron emission tomography (PET) scans.

What is the proper response to skepticism?
What is the proper response to skepticism? There appear to be only three ways that one can respond to the CP-style skeptical argument: deny at least one premise, deny that the argument is valid, or reluctantly accept the conclusion—if neither of the first two alternatives succeeds.

Do electrons actually travel from positive to negative?
Do electrons actually travel from positive to negative? The direction of an electric current is by convention the direction in which a positive charge would move. Thus, the current in the external circuit is directed away from the positive terminal and toward the negative terminal of the battery. Electrons would actually move through the wires […]
