What is a wave cycle? Wave cycles are pairs of a maximum value and a corresponding minimum value. The crest front wavelength is the distance between the minimum and the maximum. A min2Max cycle is a pair of a local minimum and the following local maximum. Which is a characteristic of all waves? All kinds […]
What are two examples of the Doppler effect?
What are two examples of the Doppler effect? The drop in pitch of ambulance sirens as they pass by and the shift in red light are common examples of the Doppler Effect. Edwin Hubble made the discovery that the universe expands as a consequence of the Doppler Effect. Where is the Doppler effect used? Doppler […]
What is the most efficient cycle for a steam power plant?
What is the most efficient cycle for a steam power plant? The Rankine cycle is the ideal cycle for vapor power plants; it includes the following four reversible processes: 1-2: Isentropic compression Water enters the pump as state 1 as saturated liquid and is compressed isentropically to the operating pressure of the boiler. What are […]
What is the moral of the story of an hour?
How many miles will be traveled by at least 80 percent of the trucks?
How often does the jet stream shift?
How often does the jet stream shift? This movement creates an air current, or wind. A jet stream is a type of air current that forms high in the atmosphere. On average, jet streams move at about 110 miles per hour. Why do waters sink in the North Atlantic? Water flowing northward becomes modified through […]
What triggers sweating?
What triggers sweating? Sweating is your body’s mechanism to cool itself. Your nervous system automatically triggers your sweat glands when your body temperature rises. Sweating also normally occurs, especially on your palms, when you’re nervous. The most common form of hyperhidrosis is called primary focal (essential) hyperhidrosis. Where do humans sweat the most? The human […]
Is DNA prokaryotic or eukaryotic?
Is DNA prokaryotic or eukaryotic? Prokaryotic Cells Prokaryotic Cells Eukaryotic Cells Nucleus No Yes DNA Single circular piece of DNA Multiple chromosomes Membrane-Bound Organelles No Yes Examples Bacteria Plants, animals, fungi Are viruses prokaryotes? Prokaryotes and eukaryotes are distinguished on the basis of their cellular characteristics. Viruses are considered neither prokaryotes nor eukaryotes because they […]
What two factors can make an object stable?
How can we overcome modal dispersion?
How can we overcome modal dispersion? One way to reduce modal dispersion is to use graded-index fiber. Unlike the two distinct materials in a step-index fiber, the graded-index fiber’s cladding is doped so that the refractive index gradually decreases over many layers. Which type of fiber has highest modal dispersion? Multimode fiber What is difference […]
