At what height the acceleration due to gravity will be reduced to 36% of its value? We can write the relation between actual acceleration due to gravity and the apparent acceleration due to gravity. Hence, the height above the surface of the earth where the acceleration due to gravity is reduced by 36% of its […]
How do kinetic energy heat and temperature affect each other?
How do kinetic energy heat and temperature affect each other? The thermal energy, or heat, of an object is obtained by adding up the kinetic energy of all the molecules within it. Temperature is the average kinetic energy of the molecules. Absolute zero is the temperature where molecular motion stops and is the lowest possible […]

Why is the Bay of Fundy tide so high?
Why is the Bay of Fundy tide so high? Fundy’s tides are the highest in the world because of an unusual combination of factors: resonance and the shape of the bay. The water in the Bay of Fundy has a natural resonance or rocking motion called seiche. The bay’s shape and bottom topography are secondary […]

Does wearing rubber slippers prevent static?
Does wearing rubber slippers prevent static? Change your footwear. Rubber is a powerful insulator. If you have carpeted floors, or work in a carpeted office, wearing rubber soled shoes greatly increases your chance of experiencing static shock. Opt for leather-soled shoes instead. Does wearing rubber slippers prevent electric shock? In answer to the second question, […]
How do dragsters reduce drag?
How do dragsters reduce drag? Because the dragster has parts moving against one another, friction is created. You can help reduce it by making sure the axles are free to rotate, and that the wheels and tires are not rubbing on the car body. Drag: Here’s where aerodynamics come into play. How are CO2 dragsters […]
How do I figure out how much soil I need for a raised bed?
How do I figure out how much soil I need for a raised bed? How to find soil volume for square or rectangular beds Measure the length, width and height of your bed. (Unless the boards are very thick, don’t worry about inside/outside measurements.) Multiply all the measurements together: 6 x 3 x 1.4 = […]
