Does increasing effect size increase power? The statistical power of a significance test depends on: • The sample size (n): when n increases, the power increases; • The significance level (α): when α increases, the power increases; • The effect size (explained below): when the effect size increases, the power increases. Why does increasing the […]

What is steam reforming process? Steam reforming or steam methane reforming is a method for producing syngas (hydrogen and carbon monoxide) by reaction of hydrocarbons with water. Commonly natural gas is the feedstock. The main purpose of this technology is hydrogen production. The reaction is strongly endothermic (consumes heat, ΔHr = 206 kJ/mol). What is […]

Why is the surface perfection of glass fibers so important? The surface perfection of glass fibers is important because surface flaws or cracks will act as points of stress concentration, which will dramatically reduce the tensile strength of the material. Care must be taken not to rub or abrade the surface after the fibers are […]

What is the formula for projectile motion? h = v 0 y 2 2 g . This equation defines the maximum height of a projectile above its launch position and it depends only on the vertical component of the initial velocity. A rock is thrown horizontally off a cliff 100.0 m high with a velocity […]

What is an igneous or sedimentary rock that has been changed by extreme pressure and heat quizlet? Metamorphic rocks form when high temperature and pressure alter existing igneous and sedimentary rocks. Metamorphic rocks can also be formed from other metamorphic rocks. Rock changes in Metamorphic Rocks. Rock changes into metamorphic form when it experiences intense […]

What is F MA Math? The famous formula is: F = ma. “Newton’s Second Law of Motion” (F is force, m is mass and a is acceleration) Do you need calculus for F MA? F=ma does not require any Calculus background. It is a test designed to challenge your understanding and intuitive on the most […]

Do not stand too close to moving? “ When a train moves, there is a matter wave attached to it. Waves move from positive to negative. Outside of train is positive and inside is negative. So, the train may pull us towards it if we stand very close to it.” Why do we get pulled […]

Why did Dave bite through the traces? They are attacked by starving dogs from the neighboring Indian village because the dogs could smell the food they were carrying. He bites through Sol-leks traces, the dogs pull away without the sled, and Dave stands in his proper place. So they hook Dave back into the trace. […]

When a cannonball is fired from a cannon? This is called the principle of conservation of momentum . Momentum is conserved in collisions and explosions . Conservation of momentum explains why a gun or cannon recoils backwards when it is fired. When a cannon is fired, the cannon ball gains forward momentum and the cannon […]
