How is energy transferred between stores?

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 describes a concave lens?

What describes a concave lens? A concave lens is a lens that possesses at least one surface that curves inwards. It is a diverging lens, meaning that it spreads out light rays that have been refracted through it. A concave lens is thinner at its centre than at its edges, and is used to correct […]

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 […]

What is relation between CP and CV?

What is relation between CP and CV? The specific heat of gas at constant volume in terms of degree of freedom ‘f’ is given as: Cv = (f/2) R. So, we can also say that, Cp/Cv = (1 + 2/f), where f is degree of freedom. Monoatomic gas has only one translational motion, hence three […]

What does 1 dB mean?

What does 1 dB mean? Decibel How does dB loss work? dB (decibel) Every time you double (or halve) the power level, you add (or subtract) 3 dB to the power level. This corresponds to a 50 percent gain or reduction. 10 dB loss corresponds to a tenfold decrease in signal level. A 20 dB […]

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 […]
