What will happen when a force is applied on a moving object against the direction of motion? If the force applied on the object is in the direction of its motion, the speed of the object increases. If the force is applied in the direction opposite to the direction of motion, then it results in […]
What is light quality?
What is light quality? Light quality is the wavelength (in nanometers, nm) within the electromagnetic spectrum; i.e. blue light is 450 nm and red light is 650 nm. Each wavelength has a different packet of radiation or energy (in J mol-1) called photons. What type of light causes damage to plants? UV-B radiation has been […]
What keeps the moon moving in a circular motion?
What keeps the moon moving in a circular motion? Gravitational attraction provides the centripetal force needed to keep planets in orbit around the Sun and all types of satellite in orbit around the Earth. The Earth’s gravity keeps the Moon orbiting us. It keeps changing the direction of the Moon’s velocity. What changes continuously in […]

Do sponges have a heart?
Do sponges have a heart? In summary, sponges – or poriferans – do not have a true circulatory system as most animals do. There is no heart, there are no veins or arteries, and sponges do not have blood. Water is pulled into the sponge via internal choanocyte cells, which take in water through the […]
Which of the following is the weakest bond?
Which of the following is the weakest bond? (a) H-bond is only an interaction between electronegative element and hydrogen therefore, it is the weakest bond among all. Why is Bond making exothermic? Bond forming is an exothermic process, because it releases energy. In reaction profile diagram, the energy change in a reaction, is the difference […]
Why do the bullet fired horizontally and the bullet dropped hit the ground at the same time?
Why do the bullet fired horizontally and the bullet dropped hit the ground at the same time? The fired bullet only experiences a horizontal force from the gun. The only vertical force acting on the fired bullet is gravity. Therefore, the fired bullet and the dropped bullet both experience the same exact downward force. This […]
How do plants maintain the amount of oxygen and carbon dioxide?
How do plants maintain the amount of oxygen and carbon dioxide? The balance of oxygen and carbondioxide is maintained in the atmosphere by the oxygen released by plants during photosynthesis and carbondioxide released by human,animals etc. The balance of oxygen and carbondioxide is made due to respreration and photosinthesis. What is the role of trees […]
What protects the cell and is selectively permeable?
What protects the cell and is selectively permeable? A selectively permeable (sometimes called semi-permeable) membrane allows some molecules across but not others. JOB: The cell membrane controls what enters and exits the cell and thus protects the cell. How do organelles help keep the cell alive? Core organelles are found in virtually all eukaryotic cells. […]
Can binaural beats make you hallucinate?
Can binaural beats make you hallucinate? Some people may hallucinate, in their own experience. Binaural beats are very subjective, some many people can listen to the exact same beat and have a different experience. They all have a particular frequency which helps to alter your brainwave pattern. This induces a state of mind depending on […]
