What is binding energy used for?

What is binding energy used for? Binding energy, amount of energy required to separate a particle from a system of particles or to disperse all the particles of the system. Binding energy is especially applicable to subatomic particles in atomic nuclei, to electrons bound to nuclei in atoms, and to atoms and ions bound together […]

What are the characteristics of mid-ocean ridges?

What are the characteristics of mid-ocean ridges? Principal characteristics. Oceanic ridges are found in every ocean basin and appear to girdle Earth. The ridges rise from depths near 5 km (3 miles) to an essentially uniform depth of about 2.6 km (1.6 miles) and are roughly symmetrical in cross section. They can be thousands of […]

What type of ozone is bad?

What type of ozone is bad? Stratospheric ozone is “good” because it protects living things from ultraviolet radiation from the sun. Ground-level ozone, the topic of this website, is “bad” because it can trigger a variety of health problems, particularly for children, the elderly, and people of all ages who have lung diseases such as […]

How are matter and volume connected?

How are matter and volume connected? Matter is all the “stuff” that exists in the universe. It has both mass and volume. Mass measures the amount of matter in a substance or an object. Volume measures the amount of space that a substance or an object takes up. What is relation between volume and capacity? […]

Why are rabbits r-selected species?

Why are rabbits r-selected species? So this begs the question are rabbits truly prolific, and why? In Page 2 the 1960s two ecologists came up with r/K selection theory. It relates to parental investment and reproductive strategies adopted by species in order to advance its kind into the future. And they have the ability to […]

How do I find carrier frequency?

How do I find carrier frequency? The carrier frequency can then be calculated as 2X99/100×1/100 which approximates to 1 in 50. Thus a rough approximation of the carrier frequency can be obtained by doubling the square root of the disease incidence. For an X-linked disorder the frequency of affected males equals the frequency of the […]
