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 […]
What can a firewall not prevent?
What can a firewall not prevent? Users not going through the firewall: A firewall can only restrict connections that go through it. It cannot protect you from people who can go around the firewall, for example, through a dial-up server behind the firewall.

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 […]
What are the two types of surface waves?
What are the two types of surface waves? The two types of surface waves are named Love waves and Rayleigh waves, after the scientists who identified them. Love waves have a horizontal motion that moves the surface from side to side perpendicular to the direction the wave is traveling. Of the two surface waves, Love […]
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 […]
Is White Fang a dog or wolf?
What makes a real image?
What makes a real image? A real image occurs where rays converge, whereas a virtual image occurs where rays only appear to diverge. Real images can be produced by concave mirrors and converging lenses, only if the object is placed further away from the mirror/lens than the focal point, and this real image is inverted. […]

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 […]
