Are cathodes positive? The anode is the electrode where electricity moves into. The cathode is the electrode where electricity is given out or flows out of. The anode is usually the positive side. A cathode is a negative side. Is cathode positive or negative in battery? The electrode of a battery that releases electrons during […]
What does a circle around a weather station mean?
What does a circle around a weather station mean? A small circle is plotted on the map at the location where the weather measurements were made. The circle can be filled in to indicate the amount of cloud cover. Positions are reserved above and below the center circle for special symbols that represent different types […]
Are fault lines dangerous?
Are fault lines dangerous? Major active faults such as the Hayward Fault are associated with many hazards. The most obvious hazard is that of large earthquakes, which induce ground shaking over a large area that can cause heavy objects to fall and windows to shatter, and can cause structural damage to buildings and bridges. How […]
What periodic trend is most important for determining metal reactivity?
What periodic trend is most important for determining metal reactivity? Metallic and Non-metallic Character Within a compound, metal atoms have relatively low attraction for electrons, as indicated by their low electronegativities. By following the trend summary in the figure below, you can see that the most reactive metals would reside in the lower left portion […]
How has plate tectonics affect evolution?
How has plate tectonics affect evolution? Plate tectonic processes such as the redistribution of continents, growth of mountain ranges, formation of land bridges, and opening and closing of oceans provide a continuous but moderate environmental pressure that stimulates populations to adapt and evolve. Why are plate tectonics important to the ocean? Earth’s oceans might not […]
What happens if thrust is greater than drag?
Is it better to steam or boil dumplings?
What causes so much static electricity in my house?
What causes so much static electricity in my house? Static increases when the air gets cold and humidity drops. To stay warm in your home, you turn up the heat, further adding to a decrease in humidity and increasing static. Why do I get static shocks more than others? Secondly, you may be storing more […]
What are disadvantages of modeling?
What are disadvantages of modeling? Disadvantages of modelling and simulation Mistakes may be made in the programming or rules of the simulation or model. The cost of a simulation model can be high. The cost of running several different simulations may be high. Time may be needed to make sense of the results. What are […]
