Why is Sun red during fire?
Why is Sun red during fire? Wildfire smoke only accentuates that effect. “The thing with wildfires is that the smoke puts a lot of extra particles up in the atmosphere. So now we’re getting the red scattering over even more of those particles, and you can get some amazing red sunsets during wildfires,” Thompson said. […]
IS STM or SEM better?
IS STM or SEM better? The scanning tunneling microscope (STM) differs significantly from the SEM. It is capable of imaging objects at ten times the lateral resolution, to 0.1 nanometer. This is well down into the quantum realm. The central concept in the STM is that of a small conducting tip brought near to the […]
What is lost in a resistor?
What is lost in a resistor? Energy dissipation in resistors. As a charge q moves through a resistor, it loses a potential energy qV where V is the potential drop across the resistor. This energy goes into heat, much like the way a ball of putty that falls off a cliff converts its potential energy […]

Who created the first climate model?
Who created the first climate model? Cecil “Chuck” Leith What is a climate change model? What is a Climate Model? Essentially, climate models are an extension of weather forecasting.
