How does removing a bulb or opening and closing the switch affect a parallel circuit? An obvious advantage of parallel circuits is that the burnout or removal of one bulb does not affect the other bulbs in parallel circuits. They continue to operate because there is still a separate, independent closed path from the source […]
Why does water move through a membrane quizlet?
Why does water move through a membrane quizlet? Water moves through a membrane in osmosis because there is a concentration gradient across the membrane of solute and solvent. The solute cannot effectively move to balance the concentration on both sides of the membrane, so water moves to achieve this balance. Why does water move through […]
What is a major turning point?
What is a major turning point? The major turning-points are clearly defined and structurally fixed: inciting incident, plot point 1, pinch point 1, midpoint, pinch point 2, plot point 2, climax and last twist. Therefore they always cause a major change within the plot. How do you find the turning point? The easiest way to […]
What unit is coefficient of friction?
What unit is coefficient of friction? newtons What does a wheel and axle do? Wheel and axle, basic machine component for amplifying force. In its earliest form it was probably used for raising weights or water buckets from wells. Its principle of operation is demonstrated by the large and small gears attached to the same […]
Where is critical listening used?
Where is critical listening used? We can be said to be engaged in critical listening when the goal is to evaluate or scrutinise what is being said. Critical listening is a much more active behaviour than informational listening and usually involves some sort of problem solving or decision making. What is critical listening Where do […]
How do you magnetize metal permanently?
How do you magnetize metal permanently? Take two magnets put one North pole and one South pole on the middle of the iron. Draw them towards its ends, repeating the process several times. Take a steel bar, hold it vertically, and strike the end several times with a hammer, and it will become a permanent […]
What are the three main types of body membranes?
What are the three main types of body membranes? There are three types of epithelial membranes: mucous, which contain glands; serous, which secrete fluid; and cutaneous which makes up the skin. What are the three functions of body membranes? Biological membranes have three primary functions: (1) they keep toxic substances out of the cell; (2) […]
Where should you connect a voltmeter?
Where should you connect a voltmeter? A voltmeter is placed in parallel with the voltage source to receive full voltage and must have a large resistance to limit its effect on the circuit. An ammeter is placed in series to get the full current flowing through a branch and must have a small resistance to […]
Is there no noise in space?
Is there no noise in space? Unlike light, sound requires a medium to travel through. This simply means that in order to hear sound there has to be something for sound to travel through. In the vacuum of space, there are no (or very, very few) particles to vibrate, so sound cannot travel through this […]
What is chain reaction with example?
What is chain reaction with example? In chain reaction. Nuclear chain reactions are series of nuclear fissions (splitting of atomic nuclei), each initiated by a neutron produced in a preceding fission. For example, 21/2 neutrons on the average are released by the fission of each uranium-235 nucleus that absorbs a low-energy neutron. What is another […]
