What was the most significant event in 1999 to impact the environment? It is part of the Global Environment Outlook project. The Dioxin Affair, primarily a political crisis, occurred in Belgium during the spring of 1999 due to contamination of feedstock with polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs). What were some of the main events that led to […]

How liquid is measured? noun. the system of units of capacity ordinarily used in measuring liquid commodities, as milk or oil. English system: 4 gills = 1 pint; 2 pints = 1 quart; 4 quarts = 1 gallon. Metric system: 1,000 milliliters = 1 liter; 1,000 liters = 1 kiloliter (= 1 cubic meter). How […]

Is jumping a normal force? When we jump, the chemical energy in our muscles get converted to kinetic energy that exerts a force on the ground (that using Newton’s 3rd law), will trigger a reaction that will ‘push’ us up- and thus a jump. This resultant normal force = Mass x Distance of jump. Is […]

Which two organisms are the most closely related? Which pair of organisms are most closely related? Organisms 2 and 3 are most closely related because they have the same family name. Organism 2 is a lion, organism 3 is a common housecat, and organism 1 is a human. Which best describes the two types of […]

What happens to molecules when the kinetic energy decreases? Explanation: Kinetic energy of the molecules of a subsance is directly proportional to the temperature of molecule So as the kinetic energy decrease, temperature also decreases. What is the average kinetic energy of any substance at 0 K? 0 Kelvin is the temperature where the is […]

What is dependent and independent variable in regression? The outcome variable is also called the response or dependent variable, and the risk factors and confounders are called the predictors, or explanatory or independent variables. In regression analysis, the dependent variable is denoted “Y” and the independent variables are denoted by “X”. How do you know […]

What happens to air pressure as altitude decreases quizlet? As air pressure decreases altitude increases. As air pressure decreases so does density. What happens to air pressure and density as altitude increases? Altitude and Density The density of air decreases with height. There are two reasons: at higher altitudes, there is less air pushing down […]

Which element has a mass of 24? Chromium Why are lanthanides Coloured? Lanthanides or more precisely lanthanides ions are coloured mainly because of their partly filled f orbitals. This allows a certain wavelength from the visible region of the spectrum to be absorbed which leads to the formation of f-f transition. Is lanthanides are Colourless? […]

What is the error in saying the source of electrons? The drift velocity is the average speed of the electrons as they flow through an electric circuit. What is the error in saying the source of electrons in a circuit is the battery or generator? The source of the electrons in a circuit is the […]

What is the difference between tables charts and graphs? Same, but Different Charts present information in the form of graphs, diagrams or tables. Graphs show the mathematical relationship between sets of data. Graphs are one type of chart, but not the only type of chart; in other words, all graphs are charts, but not all […]
