How do you locate the epicenter? Using your compass, draw a circle with a radius equal to the number you came up with in Step #2 (the radius is the distance from the center of a circle to its edge). The center of the circle will be the location of your seismograph. The epicenter of […]
What temperature is air most dense?
On what principle is an AC generator based?
On what principle is an AC generator based? AC generators work on the principle of Faraday’s law of electromagnetic induction which states that electromotive force -EMF or voltage – is generated in a current-carrying conductor that cuts a uniform magnetic field. What is generator working principle? Electric generators work on the principle of electromagnetic induction. […]
Why is motion in one dimension the simplest form of motion?
Why is motion in one dimension the simplest form of motion? 2.0 One-Dimensional Motion One-dimensional motion means moving forwards and/or backwards along a straight line, and is the simplest form of motion to study. The core of learning this is understanding rates, which is how any quantity changes over time. Key rates we will study […]
What does the dashed line separating the two sides represent?
What does the dashed line separating the two sides represent? What does the dashed line in the beaker separating the two sides represent membrane potential? Explanation: Membrane Potential: A gradient is membrane, through which the different molecules move from one portions of the body or system into the another. What is an example of osmosis […]
What are the negative effects of gamma rays?
What are the negative effects of gamma rays? The extremely high energy of gamma rays allows them to penetrate just about anything. They can even pass through bones and teeth. This makes gamma rays very dangerous. They can destroy living cells, produce gene mutations, and cause cancer. How can we reduce exposure to gamma rays? […]
Do birds feel earthquake while flying?
Do birds feel earthquake while flying? Birds and animals “feel” things in more dimensions than humans do. Birds for example are very sensitive to magnetic fields. Earthquakes being tectonic activity, I can’t see how it won’t have small impact on the earth’s magnetic field in the region. This could in turn be felt by the […]
How the mind and body are connected?
How the mind and body are connected? The brain and body are connected through neural pathways made up of neurotransmitters, hormones and chemicals. These pathways transmit signals between the body and the brain to control our everyday functions, from breathing, digestion and pain sensations to movement, thinking and feeling. What three levels did Plato say […]
Do speed radar guns take pictures?
Do speed radar guns take pictures? Speed guns do not capture any images, unlike the Truvelo and ‘Long Ranger’ cameras, that can capture a driver’s face. What happens if you get caught with a radar detector? If you’re caught using radar jammers, you’ll likely end up with an expensive fine and also confiscation of the […]
Which surface has the most amount of friction?
Which surface has the most amount of friction? Rougher surfaces have more friction between them than smoother surfaces. That’s why we put sand on icy sidewalks and roads. You can’t slide as far across ice with shoes as you can on the blades of skates (see Figure below). The rougher surface of the soles of […]
