What is viscosity and its type? Viscosity is defined as the measure of the resistance of a fluid to gradual deformation by shear or tensile stress. In other words, viscosity describes a fluid’s resistance to flow. Simply put, we can say that honey is thicker than water; in turn, honey is more viscous than water. […]
What is the important of scientific method?
What is the important of scientific method? The scientific method attempts to minimize the influence of bias or prejudice in the experimenter. Even the best-intentioned scientists can’t escape bias. That’s the job of the scientific method. It provides an objective, standardized approach to conducting experiments and, in doing so, improves their results. What is scientific […]
Why is a reflecting telescope better than a refracting?
Why is a reflecting telescope better than a refracting? Reflecting telescopes have a number of other advantages over refractors. They are not subject to chromatic aberration because reflected light does not disperse according to wavelength. Also, the telescope tube of a reflector is shorter than that of a refractor of the same diameter, which reduces […]
What are the similarities and differences between a convergent and a divergent zone?
What are the similarities and differences between a convergent and a divergent zone? In summary the Divergent and Convergent plate margins have similar and different topographical features that would have been formed or is still forming as a result of tectonic plate movement. The similarities are volcanoes and mountain ranges while the differences are rift […]
Will adding water to a mixture of toothpicks and marbles separate them?
Will adding water to a mixture of toothpicks and marbles separate them? Yes. It’s D. MY ANSWER WOULD BE D BECAUSE TOOTHPICKS WILL FOAT WHILE GLASS MARBLES WILL SINK. THE TOOTHPICKS HAVE LESS DENSITY THAN THE GLASS MARBLES. How do you separate wood from sand? Most likely any sand you have will be denser than […]
Why is Protista no longer a kingdom?
Why is Protista no longer a kingdom? Explain why the kingdom Protista is no longer considered a legitimate taxonomic group. Protista polyphyletic: some protists are more closely related to plants, fungi or animals than they are to other protists; it was too diverse, so it no longer a single kingdom. Is algae a plant or […]
What is the relation between mean median and mode for a symmetrical distribution?
What is the relation between mean median and mode for a symmetrical distribution? In a perfectly symmetrical distribution, the mean and the median are the same. This example has one mode (unimodal), and the mode is the same as the mean and median. In a symmetrical distribution that has two modes (bimodal), the two modes […]
Where does snow melt the fastest?
What are the base units SI units are based on?
What are the base units SI units are based on? As you can see above, the units in the revised SI are based completely on seven unchanging quantities or “universal constants,” including the speed of light, the amount of electric charge in an electron, and the Planck constant. What are the base units the SI […]
What are 4 types of organic compounds?
What are 4 types of organic compounds? Among the numerous types of organic compounds, four major categories are found in all living things: carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, and nucleic acids. Is DNA and RNA a organic compound? A nucleic acid is an organic compound, such as DNA or RNA, that is built of small units called […]
