What are the function of centrifugation? Centrifugation is a technique used for the separation of particles from a solution according to their size, shape, density, viscosity of the medium and rotor speed. The particles are suspended in a liquid medium and placed in a centrifuge tube. What is the importance of centrifugation? Importance of centrifugation. […]
What is a traction boundary condition?
What is a traction boundary condition? Traction free boundary condition means that the the surface is free from external stress. We can mathematically express this as > t = σ.n = 0. where, t is the surface traction in the current configuration; σ = Cauchy stress tensor; n = vector normal to the deformed surface. […]
How long will it take an S-wave to travel 4000 km?
How long will it take an S-wave to travel 4000 km? The graph shows that the S-waves need about 12 minutes: 40 seconds to travel the same distance. Therefore, if the time separation between the arrival time of the P- and S-waves is 5 minutes:40 seconds, the epicenter must be 4000 km away. How long […]
Which way are the plates moving?
Which way are the plates moving? The Pacific Plate is moving to the northwest at a speed of between 7 and 11 centimeters (cm) or ~3-4 inches a year. The North American plate is moving to the west-southwest at about 2.3 cm (~1 inch) per year driven by the spreading center that created the Atlantic […]
Is it okay to add too much Dechlorinator?
Is it okay to add too much Dechlorinator? I’ve never heard of adding too much. But it shouldn’t be a problem, just follow the directions on the back of any dechlorinator and you’ll be fine. Nothing to worry about, unless you for some reason accidentally spill an entire bottle into the tank. Can you do […]
How many feet do you fall per second?
Is table salt in water a colloid suspension or true solution?
Where is nuclear waste currently stored?
Where is nuclear waste currently stored? Level Nuclear Waste SNF is stored in one of two ways: in wet storage pools and in dry casks. Immediately following power production, SNF is discharged from the reactors and stored in wet storage pools on site, as it remains intensely radioactive and thermally hot. Why dont we throw […]
What is data classification and why is it important?
What is data classification and why is it important? Data classification helps organizations answer important questions about their data that inform how they mitigate risk and manage data governance policies. It can tell you where you are storing your most important data or what kinds of sensitive data your users create most often. What are […]
What are two kinds of reflection?
What are two kinds of reflection? The reflection of light can be roughly categorized into two types of reflection. Specular reflection is defined as light reflected from a smooth surface at a definite angle, whereas diffuse reflection is produced by rough surfaces that tend to reflect light in all directions (as illustrated in Figure 3).
