Why is momentum not always conserved?

Why is momentum not always conserved? The total momentum of both objects does not change. For this reason we say that the total momentum of the interacting objects is conserved. Newton’s third law implies that the total momentum of a system of interacting objects not acted on by outside forces is conserved. Is angular momentum […]

What does hypothesis mean in simple terms?

What does hypothesis mean in simple terms? A hypothesis is a suggested solution for an unexplained occurrence that does not fit into current accepted scientific theory.

How do you know if a spring is ideal?

How do you know if a spring is ideal? A ideal spring has an equilibrium length. If a spring is compressed, then a force with magnitude proportional to the decrease in length from the equilibrium length is pushing each end away from the other. How much force is needed to pull a spring with a […]

Is domain left to right?

Is domain left to right? Note that the domain and range are always written from smaller to larger values, or from left to right for domain, and from the bottom of the graph to the top of the graph for range. How do you tell if the domain is all real numbers? For the quadratic […]

What makes a boiling egg float?

What makes a boiling egg float? Eggs have an air cell that becomes larger as the egg ages and acts as a buoyancy aid. An egg can float in water when its air cell has enlarged sufficiently to keep it buoyant. A spoiled egg will have an unpleasant odor when you break open the shell, […]

What type of epithelial tissue looks stratified but is not?

What type of epithelial tissue looks stratified but is not? Pseudostratified columnar epithelium is a type of epithelium that appears to be stratified but instead consists of a single layer of irregularly shaped and differently sized columnar cells. In pseudostratified epithelium, nuclei of neighboring cells appear at different levels rather than clustered in the basal […]
