What are 3 cues for the set? The Set Pass Elbows high. Make a diamond shape with your hands using your thumb and index fingers. Bend knees. Quick “catch” and push with your fingers. Extend your arms and wrist. Pretend you are catching a water balloon to help you get the feel of not “stabbing” […]

How do you read P waves and S waves? The P wave will be the first wiggle that is bigger than the rest of the little ones (the microseisms). Because P waves are the fastest seismic waves, they will usually be the first ones that your seismograph records. The next set of seismic waves on […]

Why does mass not affect pendulum period? The mass of a pendulum’s bob does not affect the period. As mass increases, so does the force on the pendulum, but acceleration remains the same. (It is due to the effect of gravity.) Because acceleration remains the same, so does the time over which the acceleration occurs. […]

Does multiplication always come first? Order of operations tells you to perform multiplication and division first, working from left to right, before doing addition and subtraction. Continue to perform multiplication and division from left to right. Next, add and subtract from left to right. Multiply first. Do you multiply first if no brackets? Just follow […]

Which compound is the least soluble in water? alkane How do you know if a organic compound is water soluble? Small, polar organic compounds such as alcohols, aldehydes, ketones, amines, carboxylic acids, and a few phenols are soluble in water.

What are the main types of star clusters? The three basic types of clusters astronomers have discovered are globular clusters, open clusters, and stellar associations. How do you determine a star cluster? By determining the mass of the main-sequence turnoff stars, we get the age of the cluster. The cluster age equals the main-sequence lifetime […]

Can u die from static electricity? It is dangerous when you touch something with a large electric charge on it. The charge will flow through your body causing an electric shock. This could cause burns or even stop your heart. A person could die from an electric shock. Can static kill a motherboard? Electrostatic discharge […]

Why does wind feel cold? It can certainly feel colder when the wind is blowing. Wind helps remove the warm air immediately next to the skin and this causes a feeling of it being colder. The wind chill was developed because of the feeling that it gets colder when the wind is stronger due to […]
