What is the result of wasted energy?
What is the result of wasted energy? Wasted energy is energy that is not usefully transferred or transformed. Energy is transformed into a different form that can be used. When energy is transformed or transferred only part of it can be usefully transformed or transferred. The energy that is not used in this process is […]
What do you call a female caribou?
What do you call a female caribou? Herds of female caribou, called cows, leave several weeks before the males, which follow with yearling calves from the previous birthing season. What do caribou get eaten by? Foxes, ravens, owls,haegars and hawks are other carrion eaters or scavengers that feed on caribou kills. Native peoples have relied […]
How do you find displacement with time and distance?
How do you find displacement with time and distance? Displacement can be calculated by measuring the final distance away from a point, and then subtracting the initial distance. Displacement is key when determining velocity (which is also a vector). Velocity = displacement/time whereas speed is distance/time. What is the formula to find displacement? Displacement (s) […]
How far can the average human throw?
How do you find the slope of a velocity time graph?
How do you find the slope of a velocity time graph? Using the Slope Equation Pick two points on the line and determine their coordinates. Determine the difference in y-coordinates for these two points (rise). Determine the difference in x-coordinates for these two points (run). Divide the difference in y-coordinates by the difference in x-coordinates […]
What do Isometries preserve?
What do Isometries preserve? An isometry is a transformation that preserves the relative distance between points. Under an isometry, the image of a point is its final position. What are the four types of Isometries? There are four types: translations, rotations, reflections, and glide reflections (see below under classification of Euclidean plane isometries). The set […]
What two forces limit the height of capillary action will take water up a tube?
What two forces limit the height of capillary action will take water up a tube? Capillary action occurs when the adhesion to the walls is stronger than the cohesive forces between the liquid molecules. The height to which capillary action will take water in a uniform circular tube (picture to right) is limited by surface […]
What plant and animal cells have in common?
What plant and animal cells have in common? Animal cells and plant cells share the common components of a nucleus, cytoplasm, mitochondria and a cell membrane. Plant cells have three extra components, a vacuole, chloroplast and a cell wall. What is unique to plant cells? The plant cell has a cell wall, chloroplasts, plastids, and […]
