Is the voltage the same for capacitors in series? When capacitors are connected in series and a voltage is applied across this connection, the voltages across each capacitor are generally not equal, but depend on the capacitance values. Why a capacitor should be connected in parallel not series? Capacitors are devices used to store electrical […]

How many electrons can cytochrome c accept? one electron What happens if cytochrome c is inhibited? Cyanide, azide, and carbon monoxide all bind to cytochrome c oxidase, inhibiting the protein from functioning and leading to the chemical asphyxiation of cells. NO and CN− will compete with oxygen to bind at the site, reducing the rate […]

How did Brahe actually die? The famed 16th century Danish astronomer and mathematician Tycho Brahe was long assumed to have died from poisoning. Recently, archaeologists pored over his skeleton to reveal the real cause of his early death: a fatal combination of obesity, diabetes, and alcoholism. Does Tycho Brahe have a wax nose? In the […]

Is there a vacuum in double glazed windows? Double-glazed doors and windows are made up of two sealed sheets of glass with an insulating void between them. This gap is either in the form of a vacuum, or more commonly filled with a heavy inert gas such as argon. Together, the panes of glass and […]

How much is gas and electric for a 1 bed flat? Based on domestic energy prices in 2020 the average monthly dual fuel (electricity and gas) energy bill for a 1 bed flat is £40 to £65 assuming 1 adult occupation. If there are 2 adults in a one bedroom flat then the average energy […]

What frequency means? Frequency is the number of occurrences of a repeating event per unit of time. It is also referred to as temporal frequency, which emphasizes the contrast to spatial frequency and angular frequency. Frequency is measured in hertz (Hz) which is equal to one event per second. What happens to pitch when frequency […]

Which cells in your body undergoes cellular respiration? All living cells must carry out cellular respiration. It can be aerobic respiration in the presence of oxygen or anaerobic respiration. Prokaryotic cells carry out cellular respiration within the cytoplasm or on the inner surfaces of the cells. What are the similarities between photosynthesis and aerobic respiration? […]

What are the 3 major types of magma? There are three basic types of magma: basaltic, andesitic, and rhyolitic, each of which has a different mineral composition. All types of magma have a significant percentage of silicon dioxide. Basaltic magma is high in iron, magnesium, and calcium but low in potassium and sodium. Which type […]

Is S1 louder than S2? The intensity of S1 depends upon: the position of the AV valves at the onset of ventricular systole, the structure of the leaflets themselves, and the rate of pressure rise in the ventricle. Normally, S1 is louder than S2 at the apex, and softer than S2 at the base of […]

What happens if you hold 1 on a microwave? Often, pressing and holding 1, 0, Stop or Cancel will either result in turning off the beeping sounds or activating a child lock feature. Can a person be microwaved? A Human Being in a Microwave Well, no matter what, it wouldn’t be a pleasant experience. But […]
