What is the difference between solar time and solar day? The sidereal day is measured with respect to the stars, while the solar day is the length of time measured from noon to noon. By noon, we mean the time when the Sun passes the celestial meridian, reaching its maximum height in the sky. How […]
What is the most important factor in determining a safe vessel speed on any given day?
What is the most important factor in determining a safe vessel speed on any given day? According to the Navigation Rules the most important factor in determining safe vessel speed is? Traffic density. This can create a hazard in jet drive boats: Debris caught in the drive intake. What actions must you take when in […]
What are the steps in set and drift?
What are the steps in set and drift? Set and drift are two terms used to describe the effect currents have on your boat…. Find the distance to your destination in nautical miles. Divide this distance by your average speed in knots. Multiply this time by the average speed (drift) of the current. From your […]
Where does etc occur?
Where does etc occur? Steps of the ETC The electron transport chain occurs across the inner mitochondrial membrane. Its main function is to build an electrochemical gradient across the inner membrane using protons. The ETC pumps hydrogen ions out of the matrix of the mitochondria and into the intermembrane space. What is the main purpose […]
Why are the intestines shorter in a living person than in a dead person?
Is damped oscillation?
Is damped oscillation? An oscillator is anything that has a rhythmic periodic response. A damped oscillation means an oscillation that fades away with time. Examples include a swinging pendulum, a weight on a spring, and also a resistor – inductor – capacitor (RLC) circuit. What causes damped oscillation? a decrease in intensity of oscillations with […]
Does photoelectric current depend on frequency?
Does photoelectric current depend on frequency? Photoelectric effect can be explained as: it takes a specific energy to launch an electron from a metal surface. This energy is the work function which relies upon the metal. Electrons can pick up energy by collaborating with photons. Current is not dependent on the frequency of photons. What […]
Can you differentiate tangential velocity and tangential acceleration?
Can you differentiate tangential velocity and tangential acceleration? If the tangential velocity is not changing directions, then the object is not moving in a circle. Tangential acceleration results from the change in magnitude of the tangential velocity of an object. An object can move in a circle and not have any tangential acceleration. How do […]
How do you arrange negative numbers in ascending order?
How do you arrange negative numbers in ascending order? Arrange the following integers in ascending order, putting the smallest first. Look at the negative numbers first. The smallest negative number is -35, then -2. Then look at the positive numbers. How are numbers arranged in increasing or decreasing order? Suppose for example, 81, 97, 123, […]
How do you wind a 3 phase motor?
How do you wind a 3 phase motor? The three-phase motor stator is wound by winding a first coil clockwise, and then relatively indexing the winding head and the stator by 180 electrical degrees before winding the second coil counterclockwise. Can a Tesla do a burnout? Who knew the Model 3 could do burnouts like […]
