Are rainbows at night rare? The moon is the key, just as sunlight produces rainbows during the day, moonlight can produce rainbows at night. Moonbows are rare because moonlight is not very bright. A bright moon near to full is needed, it must be raining opposite the moon, the sky must be dark and the […]
What rollercoaster has the longest drop?
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. […]
Is upward positive or negative?
Is upward positive or negative? We consider the direction of gravity as positive and the upward direction as negative. Displacement is positive below the starting point and negative above. Velocity is positive in a downward direction and negative when going upward. For horizontal motion, right is positive and left is negative. Is lift an upward […]
What is good miles per gallon?
What is good miles per gallon? Don’t expect to attain higher than 20 mpg overall with a non-hybrid, and most offer less than 30 mpg on the highway. The best fuel-efficient non-electric vehicles get the following EPA-estimated combined numbers: Small Pickup: Chevrolet Colorado 2WD Diesel and GMC Canyon 2WD Diesel get 23 mpg. How much […]
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 are the 4 steps of the IPDE process?
What are the 4 steps of the IPDE process? The four steps of the IPDE process are: I—Identify—Locate potential hazards within the driving scene. P—Predict—Judge where the possible points of conflict may occur. D—Decide—Determine what action to take, when, and where to take it. E—Execute—Act by maneuvering the car to avoid conflicts. What are 3 […]
Is beating of drum periodic motion?
Is beating of drum periodic motion? The beating of the drum occurs at defined period. So, it is a periodic motion. Which is periodic wind? Periodic winds blow at regular intervals or in regular cycles. They are winds that result from localised differences in pressure and temperature. For example, land and sea breezes and the […]
What is PHI in RLC circuit?
What is PHI in RLC circuit? Conventionally, the phase angle between the voltage and current is symbolized by the Greek letter phi. The tangent of this angle is given by: tan (phi) = (XL-Xc)/R. The power dissipated in an RLC circuit is given by P = VI cos (phi). What is Susceptance formula? What is […]
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 […]
When would you use cumulative frequency?
When would you use cumulative frequency? Cumulative frequency is used to determine the number of observations that lie above (or below) a particular value in a data set. The last value will always be equal to the total for all observations, since all frequencies will already have been added to the previous total. What is […]
