What is the most common rock? Sedimentary rocks Is basalt rock hard? Basalt is a hard, black volcanic rock with less than about 52 weight percent silica (SiO2). Because of basalt’s low silica content, it has a low viscosity (resistance to flow). Therefore, basaltic lava can flow quickly and easily move >20 km from a […]
What changes can matter undergo?
What changes can matter undergo? Matter can undergo changes of two basic types: physical changes and chemical changes. Physical changes are processes in which a material changes its physical appearance but not its basic identity. The evaporation of water is a physical change. What are the two kinds of changes that matter may undergo describe […]
What is causality theory?
What is causality theory? Causality is a genetic connection of phenomena through which one thing (the cause) under certain conditions gives rise to, causes something else (the effect). The essence of causality is the generation and determination of one phenomenon by another. A cause is an active and primary thing in relation to the effect. […]

What does molar heat capacity depend on?
What does molar heat capacity depend on? Like the heat capacity of an object, the molar heat capacity of a substance may vary, sometimes substantially, depending on the starting temperature T of the sample and the pressure P applied to it. What is the unit of molar heat capacity? The molar heat capacity is the […]
How is the movement of matter and energy different in an ecosystem?
How is the movement of matter and energy different in an ecosystem? Nutrients can also cycle out of an ecosystem. Energy enters an ecosystem at any level and leaves at any level, while the flow of matter does not. The flow of matter cycles freely between trophic levels and between the ecosystem and the physical […]
What are 4 factors that affect weather?
What are 4 factors that affect weather? Although many factors combine to influence weather, the four main ones are solar radiation, the amount of which changes with Earth’s tilt, orbital distance from the sun and latitude, temperature, air pressure and the abundance of water. What region of Earth has the least insolation? The sun’s rays […]
Is a cell phone an electronic device?
Is a cell phone an electronic device? A mobile device is an electronic device which its user can easily carry with them. Typical examples are a mobile phone, PDA and handheld game consoles. Mobile devices do not need an external power supply to work. Usually, they have a battery to hold electricity to work without […]
Which is better leaf or coil springs?
Which is better leaf or coil springs? Leaf springs are better for heavier vehicles and those who may need to haul more weight. They’re also simpler but less adjustable than coil springs. Coil spring suspension systems are better for performance driving as you can fine-tune your suspension. They offer greater comfort and flexibility for improved […]
Is oil really fossil fuel?
Is oil really fossil fuel? Fossil fuels include coal, petroleum (oil), natural gas, oil shales, bitumens, and tar sands and heavy oils. For modern life, these energy sources rival food and water in importance. Why can’t we get rid of fossil fuels? We understand today that humanity’s use of fossil fuels is severely damaging our […]
