What happens to capacitors at low frequencies? At very low frequencies, such as 1Hz our 220nF capacitor has a high capacitive reactance value of approx 723.3KΩ (giving the effect of an open circuit). At very high frequencies such as 1Mhz the capacitor has a low capacitive reactance value of just 0.72Ω (giving the effect of […]
Do bulbs in series have the same brightness?
Do bulbs in series have the same brightness? Placing cells in series increases the voltage in the circuit by 1.5 V for each cell. Increasing the number of bulbs in a series circuit decreases the brightness of the bulbs. In a series circuit, the voltage is equally distributed among all of the bulbs. Bulbs in […]
What is flux in electric field?
What is flux in electric field? Electric flux, property of an electric field that may be thought of as the number of electric lines of force (or electric field lines) that intersect a given area. The negative flux just equals in magnitude the positive flux, so that the net, or total, electric flux is zero. […]
How many valence electrons are present in the sodium atom?
How many valence electrons are present in the sodium atom? one valence electron How many valence electrons are present in sodium? Why does sodium have one valence electron? Sodium has one valence electron. The element has a full innermost electron shell of two electrons and a full shell of eight electrons in the next shell. […]
Can a tsunami tip over a cruise ship?
Can a tsunami tip over a cruise ship? Experts agree that a cruise ship sailing out over a body of water is not likely to feel any impacts from a tsunami’s waves. Cruise ships closer to land or at port would face an immense threat from the tsunami’s tall, high-energy and potentially devastating wave. Can […]
Can Methanol hydrogen bond with itself?
Can Methanol hydrogen bond with itself? Methanol is certainly similar to formaldehyde in some ways. It is these strong hydrogen bonds that are responsible for the relatively high boiling point of methanol; there is so much positive charge on the hydrogen of the OH group that it can essentially form a real bond with the […]
What does pen stand for?
What does pen stand for? PEN originally stood for “Poets, Essayists, Novelists”, but now stands for “Poets, Playwrights, Editors, Essayists, Novelists”, and includes writers of any form of literature, such as journalists and historians. Why pencils are not used in space? To understand why NASA was so keen on a workable space pen, you have […]
Which mineral test is shown in the image 2 points image showing minerals that have been rubbed against a white board leaving different colored lines on the board?
Which mineral test is shown in the image 2 points image showing minerals that have been rubbed against a white board leaving different colored lines on the board? Streak test is a method to determine what color would the mineral had if it’s being transformed into a powdered form. This test is being done by […]
Can two electrons attract each other?
Can two electrons attract each other? Show animations and explain that protons and electrons have opposite charges and attract each other. Project the animation Protons and Electrons. Explain to students that two protons repel each other and that two electrons repel each other. But a proton and an electron attract each other. What happens when […]
Why does rain make me feel safe?
Why does rain make me feel safe? Studies have found that when rain sounds enters people’s brain, brain unconsciously relaxes and produces alpha waves, which are very close to the state of brain when human sleeps. Rain sound is generally between 0 and 20 kHz. It is not upsetting. On the contrary, this sound makes […]
