What is the principle of thermal expansion?
What is the principle of thermal expansion? Thermal expansion is the tendency of matter to change its shape, area, volume, and density in response to a change in temperature, usually not including phase transitions. Temperature is a monotonic function of the average molecular kinetic energy of a substance. What are the 3 applications of thermal […]
What is causing the acceleration of the universe?
What is causing the acceleration of the universe? The radiation-filled Universe dilutes faster; it’s density drops as the volume expands, while each individual photon also loses energy due to its cosmological redshift. The energy density drops faster for a radiation-filled Universe than a matter-filled one, and therefore so does the expansion rate. What would happen […]

Who found longitude and latitude?
Who found longitude and latitude? Hipparchus Why do we put the latitude before the longitude? I think the reason is: Accurate measurement of latitude came first as it was based on astronomical measurements. Longitude was not accurately measurable until a highly accurate time measuring device was developed. Is Latitude up and down or side to […]
What does the descending pathway consist of?
What does the descending pathway consist of? Descending pathways are groups of myelinated nerve fibers that carry motor information from the brain or brainstem to effector’s muscles, via the spinal cord. They can be functionally divided into two groups: Pyramidal (voluntary) and extrapyramidal (involuntary) tracts. What is descending pain pathway? Descending projections from the RVM […]
How do you explain weather and climate to a child?
How do you explain weather and climate to a child? Climate is the average weather usually taken over a 30-year time period for a particular region and time period. Climate is not the same as weather, but rather, it is the average pattern of weather for a particular region. Weather describes the short-term state of […]
