What type of volcano has the least violent eruption?
What type of volcano has the least violent eruption? Strombolian What is the largest Pyroclast? Pumice is ground up and used today in soaps, abrasive cleansers, and also in polishes. Bombs and blocks are the largest of the pyroclasts. Blocks are angular chunks of rock that has been ejected from a volcano during an eruption. […]
Which planets have unmanned spacecraft landed on?
Which planets have unmanned spacecraft landed on? On December 15, 1970 an unmanned Soviet spacecraft, Venera 7, became the first spacecraft to land on another planet. It measured the temperature of the atmosphere on Venus. In 1972, Venera 8 gathered atmospheric and surface data for 50 minutes after landing. What are the two types of […]
What is a collapsing wave called?
What is a collapsing wave called? In fluid dynamics, a breaking wave or breaker is a wave whose amplitude reaches a critical level at which some process can suddenly start to occur that causes large amounts of wave energy to be transformed into turbulent kinetic energy. What is a fat wave? Fat waves occur when […]
What is sound of speech?
What is sound of speech? Speech sounds are also called phonemes. A phoneme is defined as the smallest part of spoken language that makes a difference in meaning. Remember that a phoneme is not the same as a letter! Phonemes are speech sounds. Letters are used to represent sounds. What are the different uses of […]

Accessory pigments such as: cholorphyll b, carotenoids, xanthophylls and anthocyanins lend a hand to chlorophyll a molecules by absorbing a broader spectrum of light waves. How do […]
What are the 3 classifications of joints?
What are the 3 classifications of joints? Joints can be classified by the type of the tissue present (fibrous, cartilaginous or synovial), or by the degree of movement permitted (synarthrosis, amphiarthrosis or diarthrosis). What are the different kinds of joints? There are six types of freely movable diarthrosis (synovial) joints: Ball and socket joint. Permitting […]
Is Q zero in an isothermal process?
Is Q zero in an isothermal process? For an isothermal reaction, the change will happen slowly enough to enable the system go back to the initial temperature by heat exchange(q), so q can never be zero in this process. Is an isothermal change an ideal gas obeys? In an isothermal change, an ideal gas obeys […]
Why CT is connected in series?
What is Polar vs nonpolar?
What is Polar vs nonpolar? Polar molecules occur when there is an electronegativity difference between the bonded atoms. Nonpolar molecules occur when electrons are shared equal between atoms of a diatomic molecule or when polar bonds in a larger molecule cancel each other out. What is an example of a polar bond? Polar bonds are […]
