What should you not say to your child? Speaking gently: 20 things you should never say to your children 1. “ Stop crying, you’ll be fine” “I do everything for you” “You did well but you could do better” “Don’t eat that or else you’re going to get fat” “It’s not that big of a […]
Do microwaves only heat up water?
Do microwaves only heat up water? In summary: microwave ovens only really heat water (well), so yes they only heat the water in food; however, it doesn’t have to be liquid, it just absorbs more of the microwaves actually produced, causing liquid water to heat much more rapidly. Further more: yes absolutely your hand would […]
Does gravity affect aging?
Does gravity affect aging? There is no correlation between Gravity and aging. Aging is a process that is independent of Gravity. Gravity is a property of matter. Has more to do with atmospheric pressure than the effects of Gravity. Is gravity necessary for life? Gravity is very important to us. We could not live on […]
Is Crest and amplitude the same?
Is Crest and amplitude the same? The crest of a wave is the point on the medium that exhibits the maximum amount of positive or upward displacement from the rest position. The amplitude of a wave refers to the maximum amount of displacement of a particle on the medium from its rest position. How do […]
Do lizards lay fertilized eggs?
Do lizards lay fertilized eggs? Most reptiles reproduce sexually and have internal fertilization. Males have one or two penises that pass sperm from their cloaca to the cloaca of a female. Fertilization occurs within the cloaca, and fertilized eggs leave the female’s body through the opening in the cloaca. What animals lay unfertilised eggs? Oviparity […]
What is not a crosscutting concept?
What is not a crosscutting concept? In brief, a concept is crosscutting if it communicates a scientific way of thinking about a subject, and it applies to many different disciplines of science and engineering. A concept is not crosscutting if it does not communicate a scientific way of thinking or if it only applies to […]
How do you test if a solution is saturated?
How do you test if a solution is saturated? If more solute is added and it does not dissolve, then the original solution was saturated. If the added solute dissolves, then the original solution was unsaturated. A solution that has been allowed to reach equilibrium but which has extra undissolved solute at the bottom of […]
What is the relation between temperature and kinetic energy?
What is the relation between temperature and kinetic energy? Temperature is directly proportional to the average translational kinetic energy of molecules in an ideal gas. How do speed of molecules kinetic energy and temperature of matter affect each other? If the temperature is increased, the average speed and kinetic energy of the gas molecules increase. […]
Is there a state beyond plasma?
Is there a state beyond plasma? If you bombard any atom with enough energy, you’ll kick the electrons off of it, creating an ionized plasma: the fourth state of matter. But there are two additional states of matter that exist: Bose-Einstein Condensates and Fermionic Condensates, the fifth and sixth states of matter. What is the […]
