What are examples of fast chemical reactions? Chemical reactions that complete in a very short time, such as less than 10 -6 seconds, they are called fast reactions. Examples: Magnesium ribbon is burnt in the flame of Bunsen burner; it quickly gets combusted with a noticeable spark. Similarly, a neutralization reaction between acids and bases […]
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 […]

Can you die from swimming in the Dead Sea?
Can you die from swimming in the Dead Sea? Is it possible to drown in it? Although whoever enters the water immediately floats, you should keep in mind that it is still possible to drown in the Dead Sea. This happens when swimmers get caught in strong winds, flip over and swallowing the salty water. […]
What are flood basalts associated with?
What are flood basalts associated with? Flood Basalts are high volume eruptions that flood vast areas of the Earth, covering broad regions with flat lying lava surfaces. When flood basalts are forming above continents they fill rift valleys via giant fissures that split the continent. Are flood basalts Polygenetic? A flood basalt province, built from […]

What are the different ocean currents that carry warm water give at least three examples?
What are the different ocean currents that carry warm water give at least three examples? They carry warm water from the tropics poleward. Examples include the Gulf Stream, the Agulhas Current, and the Kuroshio. Cold currents flow toward the equator on the eastern side of ocean basins. What is the purpose of prevailing winds? Due […]
Can dog whistles damage human ears?
Can dog whistles damage human ears? Some sounds (such as gunfire or standing next to a helicopter) are so loud (120-160 dB), that any brief exposure to them without wearing earmuffs or earplugs can damage hearing. (This means that the dog whistles are at a very high frequency but that they do not move the […]
What is CP CV called?
What is CP CV called? The Cp/Cv ratio is also called the heat capacity ratio. (i.e.) Heat Capacity ratio = Cp/Cv = Heat capacity at constant pressure/ Heat capacity at constant volume. How do you calculate CP in thermodynamics? cp = cv + R The specific heat constants for constant pressure and constant volume processes […]
