What is average distance? The average distance is the average shortest path of a graph, corresponding to the summa of all shortest paths between vertex couples divided for the total number of vertex couples. In quantitative terms, “high” and “low” are better defined when compared to the total number of nodes in the graph. How […]

Is pigment ink better for heat transfers? So after going by all the characteristics and differences in the inks, it is advised to use Pigment ink for heat transfer paper. The reason for using a pigment ink over the regular dye ink is that the pigment ink doesn’t fade quickly. How do you make a […]

How should you approach a dock when there is a strong wind blowing away from the dock? If the wind is offshore (blowing away from the dock), you should approach the dock at a 20 to 30 degree angle. A bow line is passed ashore and secured. In boats with an outboard, or inboard/outboard engine, […]

What is the lowest order of the Butterworth? What is the order N of the low pass Butterworth filter in terms of KP and KS? Explanation: We know that, [\frac{Ω_P}{Ω_C}]^{2N} = 10^{-K_P/10}-1 and [\frac{Ω_P}{Ω_C}]^{2N} = 10^{-K_S/10}-1. Which is better FIR or IIR? The advantage of IIR filters over FIR filters is that IIR filters usually […]

What are three ways to break down a compound? Compounds can be broken apart in chemical reactions called decomposition reactions. For example, water can be broken down into the diatomic elements hydrogen gas and oxygen gas in a chemical reaction called electrolysis. Sodium chloride can also be broken down into elemental sodium and chlorine gas […]

What is the chemical name of ch2? Methylene Why is CH2 called methylene? Methylene was used as the name for methanol, which is wood alcohol, CH3OH, in the early 19th century. Methylene comes from methe + hyde the latter being the Greek word for wood, so methylene would mean wine from wood. What is full […]

Why is it easier for humans to walk through air than liquid water? It is easier to push an object through air than through water. This is because air is less dense than water. Since air is less dense this means there is less matter, or less “stuff”, in a certain area of air than […]

Why do cheetahs have very little genetic variation? Even though the number of cheetahs grew to as many as 100,000 during the 19th century, their genetic variability remained low due to the extreme bottleneck event that took place thousands of years previously. What are the two types of variation? There are two forms of variation: […]

Can a translation undo a reflection? No. The translation followed by a reflection would put a figure in a different location in the plane when compared to the same reflection followed by the same translation. Summarize, or have students summarize, the lesson. We can sequence rigid motions. What does translation do to an image? Translation […]

Why are Fraunhofer lines missing? Fraunhofer lines are dark absorption lines in the solar spectrum that can be seen when sunlight is passed through a prism to separate it into the colors of the rainbow. These dark lines were segments of colors missing from the complete spectrum. … Can you touch dry ice? Dry Ice […]
