What rollercoaster has the longest drop? Kingda Ka How do drop towers slow down? And as Lenz’s law states, that magnetic field opposes the motion of the magnets. As a result, the magnetic field pushes up against the seat, causing the cart to slow down. This is how a drop tower ride’s magnetic brakes work. […]
What is 98 100 as a percentage?
What happens if you force magnets together?
What happens if you force magnets together? In other words, if you hold two magnets together so that like-poles are close together (two norths OR two souths), they repel. When two like-poles point together, the arrows from the two magnets point in OPPOSITE directions and the field lines cannot join up. So the magnets will […]

What are the 3 major parts of a seed?
What are the 3 major parts of a seed? The three primary parts of a seed are the embryo, endosperm, and seed coat. The embryo is the young multicellular organism before it emerges from the seed.

What can we use iodine to test for?
What can we use iodine to test for? In the presence of starch, iodine turns a blue/black colour. It is possible to distinguish starch from glucose (and other carbohydrates) using this iodine solution test. For example, if iodine is added to a peeled potato then it will turn black. Benedict’s reagent can be used to […]
What is the relationship between buoyancy and volume?
What is the relationship between buoyancy and volume? Compressible objects As a floating object rises or falls, the forces external to it change and, as all objects are compressible to some extent or another, so does the object’s volume. Buoyancy depends on volume and so an object’s buoyancy reduces if it is compressed and increases […]
