Can I scrape plaque off my teeth?
Can I scrape plaque off my teeth? Brushing and flossing daily is really important because plaque quickly becomes tartar, and once it’s tartar, you can’t remove it on your own, or at least, you shouldn’t. Tartar build-up needs to be scraped off, and trying to do this at home can cause you to scratch the […]
Does gold have the same properties as silver?
Does gold have the same properties as silver? A review of the table shows that gold and silver are very similar to each other. Generally, compared to platinum and palladium, gold and silver have a lower melting and boiling point, are better conductors, softer, more reflective, and more abundant. Why do copper and silver have […]
How long does radioactive isotope stay in your body?

What are three things that affect longshore currents?
What are three things that affect longshore currents? When a wave breaks at a more acute (steep) angle on a beach, encounters a steeper beach slope, or is very high, longshore currents increase in velocity. Conversely, a wider breaking angle, gentler beach slope, and lower wave height slows a longshore current’s velocity. What causes long […]
