Does buoyancy affect weight?

Does buoyancy affect weight? An object will float if the buoyancy force exerted on it by the fluid balances its weight, i.e. if FB=mg F B = mg . But the Archimedes principle states that the buoyant force is the weight of the fluid displaced. So, for a floating object on a liquid, the weight […]

Does wind affect rain?

Does wind affect rain? Air Currents Prevailing winds bring air from one type of climate to another. For example, warm winds that travel over water tend to collect moisture as they travel; the water vapor in the air will condense as it moves into colder climates, which is why temperate coastal areas often receive heavy […]

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. […]

Do fires raise soil pH?

Do fires raise soil pH? The impact of fires on vegetation and wildlife is obvious. Nutrient levels and soil organic matter both increase after fire. Spanish research showed a significant increase in soil pH, carbon and nutrients immediately after a prescribed grass fire. How is soil affected by fire? The most dramatic effect of a […]
