What are examples of reactants? Examples of Reactants The wax of a candle and oxygen in air are reactants in a combustion reaction. When you burn methane gas, the reactants are methane (CH4) and oxygen in air (O2). When water forms from its elements, the reactants are hydrogen (H2) and oxygen (O2) gas. What are […]

How do you find centroid? Centroid of a Triangle Definition: For a two-dimensional shape “triangle,” the centroid is obtained by the intersection of its medians. The centroid of a triangle = ((x1+x2+x3)/3, (y1+y2+y3)/3) To find the x-coordinates of G: To find the y-coordinates of G: Try This: Centroid Calculator. How do you find the centroid […]

How does a photon interacts with matter? In a pair-production interaction, the photon interacts with the nucleus in such a manner that its energy is converted into matter. The interaction produces a pair of particles, an electron and a positively charged positron. These two particles have the same mass, each equivalent to a rest mass […]

Why is energy released in a fission reaction? Fission is the splitting of heavy nuclei (such as uranium) – in two smaller nuclei. This process needs less energy to ‘bind’ them together – so energy is released. The larger nuclei again needs less energy to hold it together – so energy is released. What is […]

What is the purpose of stick drop test? This test uses the known properties of gravity to determine how long it takes a person to respond to the dropping of an object by measuring how far the object can falls before being caught. How do I improve my ruler drop test? Ruler drop test Person […]
