When a small stone is dropped into a pond of still water what happens? When that pebble is dropped in the pond, it pushes water out of the way. The water has nowhere to go but to the side and up, creating a circular peak around the drop point. This peak falls again, under the […]
What is called stereopsis?
What is called stereopsis? Stereopsis (from the Greek στερεο- stereo- meaning “solid”, and ὄψις opsis, “appearance, sight”) is a term that is most often used to refer to the perception of depth and 3-dimensional structure obtained on the basis of visual information deriving from two eyes by individuals with normally developed binocular vision.

Is sodium and magnesium an ionic compound?
Is sodium and magnesium an ionic compound? There is a strong electrostatic force of attraction between these oppositely charged ions – this is called an ionic bond. The slideshow shows ionic bonds being formed in sodium chloride, magnesium oxide and calcium chloride. How do you combine ionic charges? To find the formula of an ionic […]

Who is the father of cosmology?
Who is the father of cosmology? ACHARYA KAPIL How do Cosmologists study the universe? There are two main ways in which cosmological observations support perturbed FLRW models. First, cosmologists use matter and radiation in the universe to probe the background spacetime geometry and its evolution. What is Africa cosmology? In the framework of African cosmology, […]
What is the actual weight of molecule of water?
What is the actual weight of molecule of water? Therefore, 18g of mass of water is occupied by 6.022×1023 number of molecules. Therefore, we can calculate the mass of one molecule of water by dividing the mass of one mole of water and Avogadro number. The actual weight of a molecule of water is calculated […]
What are 2 similarities and 2 differences between ionic and covalent bonds?
What are 2 similarities and 2 differences between ionic and covalent bonds? The molecules that are formed from the ionic and covalent bonds are neutral. This is because, in an ionic bond, two opposite charges cancel each other while in a covalent bond, neutral components shared the pair of electrons. Ionic and covalent, both are […]
How many degrees is a 6% grade?
How can you reduce unwanted energy transfers in a machine with moving touching components?
How can you reduce unwanted energy transfers in a machine with moving touching components? Mechanical devices can be made more efficient through lubrication to reduce the friction between moving parts of a machine and increase the amount of useful energy transferred. Can you put too much insulation in your attic? It is possible to over-insulate […]
