Which hormone is responsible for sweating? Acetylcholine acts on the eccrine glands and adrenaline acts on both eccrine and apocrine glands to produce sweat. Emotional sweating can occur anywhere, though it is most evident on the palms, soles of the feet, and axillary regions. How do I unblock my sweat glands? Keep the area clean. […]
What is a part of an experiment not being tested?
What is a part of an experiment not being tested? Controls or Controlled Variables A part of the experiment that is not being tested and is used for comparison of the experimental results. A control group should be used when conducting an experiment. How do scientists test their hypothesis? Scientists (and other people) test hypotheses […]
What happens if you enter the wrong number in ATM?
How can yield strength be reduced?
How can yield strength be reduced? For the majority of materials, the yield strength decreases with increasing temperature. In metals, this decrease in yield strength is due to the thermal activation of dislocation motion, resulting in easier plastic deformation at higher temperatures. What happens when plastic is cooled? Once a plastic has been cooled below […]
Why boiling point varies with pressure?
Why boiling point varies with pressure? The normal boiling point is the temperature at which the vapor pressure of the liquid is equal to standard pressure. Because atmospheric pressure can change based on location, the boiling point of a liquid changes with the external pressure. Why is it easier to boil water at higher altitudes? […]
Can entanglement be destroyed?
Can entanglement be destroyed? But for the first time, quantum physicist Seth Lloyd of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology suggests that memories of entanglement can survive its destruction. What does entanglement mean in a relationship? An entanglement is a complicated or difficult relationship or situation. Can we prove quantum entanglement? Quantum entanglement has been demonstrated […]
What is the best wood flooring to use over radiant heat?
What is the best wood flooring to use over radiant heat? One of the best options over radiant heat is to use an engineered hardwood floor. The inherent dimensional stability of engineered hardwood floors makes it a great choice for radiant heat systems. Certain solid hardwood floors are appropriate as well. Can you put rugs […]
Why is it called hydraulics?
Why is it called hydraulics? The word “hydraulics” originates from the Greek word ὑδραυλικός (hydraulikos) which in turn originates from ὕδωρ (hydor, Greek for water) and αὐλός (aulos, meaning pipe). Who invented pneumatics? Samuel Ingersoll When was pneumatics first used? The origins of pneumatics can be traced back to the first century when ancient Greek […]
What color is the photosphere as viewed from the ground on a clear cloudless day when the sun is highest overhead?
What color is the photosphere as viewed from the ground on a clear cloudless day when the sun is highest overhead? The photosphere appears bright yellow (almost white) as viewed from the ground on a clear, cloudless day. As the Sun approaches the horizon over an ocean, the photosphere appears orange-yellow and as the Sun […]
