What is the most important force driving erosion? Water Erosion Water is the most important erosional agent and erodes most commonly as running water in streams. However, water in all its forms is erosional. Raindrops (especially in dry environments) create splash erosion that moves tiny particles of soil. What is the biggest driver for soil […]
At what point is acceleration the greatest?
At what point is acceleration the greatest? Neglecting air resistance for the moment, the remaining force is that of gravity which is always g and directed downward. So the acceleration at the highest point is the same as at launch time, i.e. -9.8 meters/sec2 in the vertical direction. What is the acceleration just before it […]
What are the three basic types of bridges?
What are the three basic types of bridges? Bridges can be found in a variety of shapes, but 3 basic designs rule the day; beam, arch, and suspension. What are the main parts of a bridge? The main components of a bridge are the foundation, substructure, and the superstructure. Each of these core areas have […]
What do the four elements symbolize?
What do the four elements symbolize? Ultimately what you manifest in the physical world can be attributed to a characteristic of earth, air, fire and water. Symbolically the four elements represent patterns of energy that transform life and by understanding their influences can be used as a tool for self-development. Whats is my soul? Your […]
Why is light red shifted?
Why is light red shifted? Light behaves like a wave, so light from a luminous object undergoes a Doppler-like shift if the source is moving relative to us. However, to be accurate, the red shifts observed in distant objects are not exactly due to the Doppler phenomenon, but are rather a result of the expansion […]
Why do I feel sick during a storm?
Why do I feel sick during a storm? Approaching storms lower the air pressure. When atmospheric pressure decreases body tissues swell slightly. This can put increased pressure on joints and sinuses. Low temperatures also causes blood viscosity, or thickness. Does thunder affect mood? Thunderstorms are dramatic events, so it’s not surprising that they often bring […]
How do you calculate a mix ratio?
What makes hair follicles grow?
What makes hair follicles grow? Your hair begins growing from a root in the bottom of the follicle. Blood from the blood vessels in your scalp feeds the root, which creates more cells and makes the hair grow. How can I reopen my hair follicles naturally? Their proven benefits can help to stimulate growth and […]
Which is a better absorber of heat white or black?
Which is a better absorber of heat white or black? The amount of energy absorbed and radiated is decided by the colour. White is a good reflector while black is a good absorber of heat. Among other colours there is a gradation of temperature. The only difference between them is the colour with which they […]
Why tidal energy is bad?
Why tidal energy is bad? Intermittent: Tidal energy can only be produce electricity during tidal surges, limiting electricity generation to 10 hours per day. Expensive: Technology for generating electricity from tidal energy is relatively new and not yet commercially profitable. Tidal power plants are also expensive to build and maintain. Why is tidal power not […]
