What has 16 protons and 18 neutrons? Sulfur – S Is beryllium expensive? BERYLLIUM IS A MATERIAL LIKE NO OTHER. Ninety-eight-percent pure beryllium is expensive, selling from $600 to $800 per pound prior to machining, so shops must understand its machining idiosyncracies to avoid scrapping progressively expensive parts. What’s the strongest alloy on earth? Steel […]
What is a circuit chart?
What is a circuit chart? What is a Circuit Diagram? A circuit diagram is a visual display of an electrical circuit using either basic images of parts or industry standard symbols. A schematic style circuit diagram is used to give a visual representation of an electrical circuit to an electrician. What are the two types […]
How do plants and animals get the energy they need?
How do plants and animals get the energy they need? Most, if not all plants are producers, and they make their own food using sunlight and raw materials, through a process called “photosynthesis”. Plants get their energy in form of starch whereas animals get it in form of glycogen. In which light photosynthesis is maximum? […]
What are the pros and cons of CBT?
What are the pros and cons of CBT? Research has shown that cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) can be as effective as medication in treating Anxiety & Depression problems. There is always a risk that bad feelings you associate with your problem will return, but with your CBT skills it should be easier for you to […]
Which number is used in forced convection?
Which number is used in forced convection? The parameter of importance in forced convection is the Péclet number, which is the ratio of advection (movement by currents) and diffusion (movement from high to low concentrations) of heat. When the Peclet number is much greater than unity (1), advection dominates diffusion. What is the primary driving […]
Can I lock my bike to a street sign?
Can I lock my bike to a street sign? Street signs are placed in the right of way. So even if it’s on someone’s private property, it’s still public (government) property. You pay taxes, you vote… use the sign as long as you don’t deface, damage, or otherwise obscure it’s message, you should be good. […]
Is scattering of light reflection?
Is scattering of light reflection? Scattering and reflection. Both phenomena occur and overlap. The main factor controlling them is particle size: scattering occurs for particles smaller than the wavelength of light, and reflection for bigger ones, but there is overlap. Thus, more blue light than red light is transmitted backwards. What is the means of […]

Oil How much does burning fossil fuels contribute to global warming? Global carbon emissions from fossil fuels have significantly increased since 1900. Since 1970, CO2 emissions have increased by about […]
How are the circuits wires in houses?
How are the circuits wires in houses? Circuits in houses are generally wired in parallel, which allows you to operate each light or power point independently of the others. How many circuits should a house have? Fifty years ago, a kitchen might have been served by a single electrical circuit, but today, a newly installed […]
What force is used when you lift an object?
What force is used when you lift an object? gravitational potential energy Is it safer to push or pull a trolley? Putting the load on a trolley and pushing it is one way of avoiding carrying. So, when people push and pull instead of lifting and carrying, less effort is required, but there may still […]
