Are humans the smartest animal? Despite the prevailing belief that humans dominate the animal kingdom when it comes to smarts, we’re actually ranked as the third-smartest species on the planet — at least according to Douglas Adams, author of “Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy.” But joking aside, there is something to be said for Douglas’ […]
What element is a good insulator?
What element is a good insulator? Examples of good conductors are sliver, tin, and lead. Good insulators contain 8 electrons which mean they are stable(noble gasses group 18). Insulators can’t be easily transported from one atom to another and nonmetals make good insulators. Three examples of good insulators are sulfur, silicon, and rubber. What makes […]
What is not an example of mechanical wave?
What is not an example of mechanical wave? Light, sound, and waves in the ocean are common examples of waves. Sound and water waves are mechanical waves; meaning, they require a medium to travel through. However, light is not a mechanical wave; it can travel through a vacuum such as the empty parts of outer […]
What is a Type 3 question?
What is a Type 3 question? Level Three questions go beyond the text, yet must show an understanding of the ideas in the text. These questions typically require reasoning, complexity, and/or planning. If it’s a level three question, you explain/justify your thinking and provide supporting evidence for reasoning or conclusions you make. What is Question […]

What are dependent and independent variables in research?
What are dependent and independent variables in research? In research, variables are any characteristics that can take on different values, such as height, age, species, or exam score. The independent variable is the cause. Its value is independent of other variables in your study. The dependent variable is the effect. Its value depends on changes […]

Rip currents are currents that pull objects away from the shore rather than towards it. What is the disadvantage of barrier islands? […]
What is the electric potential at the halfway point between the two charges?
What is the electric potential at the halfway point between the two charges? At the midpoint between the charges, the electric potential due to the charges is zero, but the electric field due to the charges at that same point is non-zero. At what point or points on the is the electric potential zero? PROBLEM […]
