What is it called when the footwall block moves up relative to the hanging wall block? Reverse Faults • If the hanging wall moves up relative to the footwall, the fault is a reverse fault. Reverse faults are caused by compressional stress, or stress that pushes rocks together. Reverse fault. Which type of force is […]

Can a hotspot replace home internet? Using your phone’s hotspot can replace your separate home internet account, as long as your phone plan includes unlimited data or a generous amount of hotspot data. Here’s everything you need to know about using your mobile hotspot to save money on home internet. What is the difference between […]

How will the force get affected on reversing the direction of current flow? (i) On reversing the direction of current, the conductor gets deflected in the upward direction. i.e., the direction of conductor reverses. (ii) If the magnitude of current is doubled, it will result in doubling the magnitude of the force. How do you […]

What are the two types of charge? Summary There are only two types of charge, which we call positive and negative. The vast majority of positive charge in nature is carried by protons, whereas the vast majority of negative charge is carried by electrons. Can we produce heat by using our hands? Answer: yes we […]

Why does the temperature of a substance not change when the phase changes? But there is no temperature change until a phase change is complete. i.e. during phase change, the energy supplied is used only to separate the molecules ; no part of it is used to increase the kinetic energy of the molecules. So […]

Does culture affect the way of life of a person? Our culture shapes the way we work and play, and it makes a difference in how we view ourselves and others. It affects our values—what we consider right and wrong. This is how the society we live in influences our choices. But our choices can […]

What makes a pendulum stop swinging? The main reason the pendulums stop is due to air friction and the friction at the point of rotation. To see a pendulum that removes one of these sources of friction, you can see a Coriolis force clock. These are pendulums that swing but instead of being on a […]

What is the relationship between length and period? The longer the length of string, the farther the pendulum falls; and therefore, the longer the period, or back and forth swing of the pendulum. The greater the amplitude, or angle, the farther the pendulum falls; and therefore, the longer the period.) Is period directly proportional to […]

Is gold plating toxic? Although some of the active components in the 24K Bright Gold Plating Solution are toxic, they are present at very low concentrations in the final product. If symptoms of exposure are experienced as result of using this product, call 911 or your local emergency response number. How much is a 24K […]

How many types of temperature are there? The three main temperature scales are Celsius, Fahrenheit, and Kelvin. Temperatures can be converted from one scale to another using temperature conversion equations. What are the different types of temperature measuring devices? 7 Basic Types of Temperature Measuring Sensors Thermocouples. Thermocouples are voltage devices that indicate temperature measurement […]
