How is energy transferred between stores? The log’s energy can be shifted to a thermal store in the surroundings by burning it. The energy transfer occurs by convection (particle movement) and by radiation of heat and light. The battery’s energy can be shifted to a kinetic store in a spinning motor by electrical work. How […]
What does ATP produce when broken down?
What does ATP produce when broken down? The by-products of the breakdown of ATP are adenosine diphosphate (ADP), which is the remaining adenosine and two (di) phosphate groups, and one single phosphate (Pi) that is ‘on its own’. How can I increase ATP naturally? Boost your ATP with fatty acids and protein from lean meats […]

What are the risks of using iodine-131?
What are the risks of using iodine-131? I-131 collects in the thyroid gland. People exposed to I-131, especially during childhood, may have an increased risk of thyroid disease, including thyroid cancer. Thyroid cancer is uncommon and is usually curable. Typically, it is a slow-growing cancer that is highly treatable. What percentage of an original sample […]

How long does it take for carbon 14 to fully decay?
How long does it take for carbon 14 to fully decay? 5,730 years Will all of Carbon 14 eventually disappear? The half-life of carbon-14 is the amount of time it takes for one-half of the original amount to disappear by radioactive decay. After 50,000 years, a fossil won’t have any radiocarbon left in it. Carbon-14 […]

What is the significance of knowing strengths and weaknesses of a research work?
What is the significance of knowing strengths and weaknesses of a research work? Knowing your weaknesses allows you to understand how you can work around them. Strengths and weaknesses are part of being self-aware. When you know your strengths and weaknesses, you can create a development strategy that focuses on your specific development needs. What […]
Why is there vacuum above the level of mercury in a mercury barometer?
Why is there vacuum above the level of mercury in a mercury barometer? The top of the barometer is filled with nothing (vacuum) because the mercury must have the space to expand and contract without any other force affecting it; a gas or liquid in the top would have its own pressure against the mercury […]
What holds a nucleus together?
What holds a nucleus together? The strong nuclear force. At extremely short range, it is stronger than electrostatic repulsion, and allows protons to stick together in a nucleus even though their charges repel each other. Remember that the size of the nucleus is really small compared to the size of an atom. What makes a […]
