What is G value on glass? The g value of the glass simply tells us how well the glass transmits heat from the sun. It is expressed either as a percentage, or simple decimal. A g value of 1.0 (100%) would tell us that all solar heat could enter the building (so without any glass), […]

How do we use refraction in everyday life?
How do we use refraction in everyday life? Refraction of light can be seen in many places in our everyday life. It makes objects under a water surface appear closer than they really are. It is what optical lenses are based on, allowing for instruments such as glasses, cameras, binoculars, microscopes, and the human eye. […]
Is selective coordination required?
Is selective coordination required? Selective coordination is required for systems related to life safety (as defined in the NEC), and is achieved when an overcurrent on a circuit is interrupted and only the closest upstream device opens such that only the section of the electrical system with a problem is taken offline. What is selective […]
How is flow rate related to radius?
How is flow rate related to radius? To put this relationship into words: At a given temperature, flow rate through a tube or pipe is inversely proportional to the length of the tube the viscosity of the liquid. Flow rate is directly proportional to the pressure gradient and the fourth power of the radius of […]
What is the difference between reflective and reflexive?
What is the difference between reflective and reflexive? Reflection might lead to insight about something not noticed in time, pinpointing perhaps when the detail was missed. Reflexivity is finding strategies to question our own attitudes, thought processes, values, assumptions, prejudices and habitual actions, to strive to understand our complex roles in relation to others. What […]
Are multiple choice tests accurate?
Are multiple choice tests accurate? Multiple choice test questions, also known as items, can be an effective and efficient way to assess learning outcomes. Multiple choice test items are less susceptible to guessing than true/false questions, making them a more reliable means of assessment. When should I use multiple choice test? Multiple-choice items are best […]
How much HF is lethal?
How much HF is lethal? Hydrofluoric acid is one of the strongest acids known that has a strong lipophilic ability. Ingestions of more than 20 mg/kg body weight are considered a lethal dose. Even after dermal exposure, the fatal prognosis is caused by severe electrolyte disturbances, especially hypocalcemia. What does an HF burn feel like? […]
Is the bottom of the wave?
Is the bottom of the wave? The bottom of a wave is called the trough. The distance between two consecutive crests or two consecutive troughs is the wavelength. What happens when a deep water wave starts to feel the bottom? As a deep-water wave reaches shore, at the point where the depth of the water […]
