How do we identify weather forecast? Weather forecasts are made by collecting as much data as possible about the current state of the atmosphere (particularly the temperature, humidity and wind) and using understanding of atmospheric processes (through meteorology) to determine how the atmosphere evolves in the future. What are the steps in weather forecasting? The […]
Is water made of pee?
Is water made of pee? Urine is about 95% water. It is not completely sterile of microorganisms, as many sources incorrectly state. But it doesn’t contain any of the harmful microbes that can make you immediately sick—such as those you might ingest from contaminated wilderness water, and which are generally transferred through feces instead. Do […]
How dangerous is the luge?
How dangerous is the luge? With speeds up to 90 mph, luge is one of the most dangerous sports in the Olympic Games. Luge is similar to skeleton but with athletes sliding down with their face up and feet first. This high-speed sport requires good upper-body strength and efficient navigation of the course. What is […]
What is 1000 miles away from NYC?
What is 1000 miles away from NYC? Cities that are 1,000 miles away from New York City are: Minneapolis, Minnesota. Is Tokyo bigger than New York? Tokyo is much larger than New York and it also is the most populated city in the world. But because it’s so large, its population density is only 15,604 […]
What are the sensory receptors?
What are the sensory receptors? Sensory receptors are dendrites of sensory neurons specialized for receiving specific kinds of stimuli. Sense organs (such as the eyes and ears) consist of sensory neurons with receptors for the special senses (vision, hearing, smell, taste, and equilibrium) together with connective, epithelial, or other tissues. What are the 6 sensory […]
Why does stored energy increase as separation increases?
Why does stored energy increase as separation increases? If the capacitor is now disconnected, and its capacitance is changed by increasing the distance between the plates, its energy must increase since work is being done by moving charge under the influence of an electrical field. Why capacitance does not depend on voltage? 1 Answer. In […]
What is the relationship between vapor pressure and temperature?
What is the relationship between vapor pressure and temperature? The vapor pressure of a liquid varies with its temperature, as the following graph shows for water. The line on the graph shows the boiling temperature for water. As the temperature of a liquid or solid increases its vapor pressure also increases. Conversely, vapor pressure decreases […]
What happens in the upper mantle?
What happens in the upper mantle? The upper mantle begins just beneath the crust and ends at the top of the lower mantle. The upper mantle causes the tectonic plates to move. Crust and mantle are distinguished by composition while the lithosphere and asthenosphere are defined by a change in mechanical properties. Why is the […]
What are the principles of stoichiometry?
What are the principles of stoichiometry? The principles of stoichiometry are based upon the law of conservation of mass. Matter can neither be created nor destroyed, so the mass of every element present in the product(s) of a chemical reaction must be equal to the mass of each and every element present in the reactant(s). […]
What keeps are body together?
What keeps are body together? The word “collagen” itself, derives from the Greek word “kolla,” meaning glue. Collagen is the glue that holds the body together! It is the most abundant protein found throughout your body in organs, muscles, skin, hair, blood vessels, tendons, joints. What is the cell that holds the body together? Laminin […]
