What is the difference between an air conditioner and a heat exchanger? With air conditioning, there is no concern about hot spots because cooling occurs at well below ambient temperatures. Heat exchangers effectively prevent hot spots even though the cooling is slightly above the ambient temperatures. What heat transfer mediums are utilized in a residential […]

What is the function of ribosome in protein synthesis? The ribosome is universally responsible for synthesizing proteins by translating the genetic code transcribed in mRNA into an amino acid sequence. Ribosomes use cellular accessory proteins, soluble transfer RNAs, and metabolic energy to accomplish the initiation, elongation, and termination of peptide synthesis. Is the translation between […]

What is an ideal weight? Body mass index (BMI) is a common tool for deciding whether a person has an appropriate body weight. It measures a person’s weight in relation to their height. According to the National Institutes of Health (NIH) : A BMI of less than 18.5 means that a person is underweight. A […]

What is the relationship between S and P waves? P waves travel fastest and are the first to arrive from the earthquake. In S or shear waves, rock oscillates perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation. In rock, S waves generally travel about 60% the speed of P waves, and the S wave always arrives […]

Is it cruel not to walk your dog? Walking your dog is essential for their health, but not doing it doesn’t make you cruel. You might never do dog walks but instead, spend time together and perform other exercises. Is a 20 minute walk enough for a dog? They have moderate exercise needs with a […]

Why do a chicken embryo and a cow embryo look very? Why do a chicken embryo and a cow embryo look very similar even though the adults do not? The embryos mutate in utero to form different structures. The genetic makeup of the two species is similar. What evidence of evolution do we use to […]

What are 3 control variables? An experiment usually has three kinds of variables: independent, dependent, and controlled. The independent variable is the one that is changed by the scientist. What is an example of the control group? A simple example of a control group can be seen in an experiment in which the researcher tests […]

How much is Newton in KG? Kg and Newton Values Kg to Newton 1 kg = 9.81 N Newton to kg 1N = 0.10197 kg What is 100g of force? 100 g (g-force) equals to: cm/s2 (cm per second squared) m/s2 (meter per second squared) km/s2 (km per second squared) km/h2 (km per hour squared) […]

Do egg cartons reduce sound? The various textural ripples and waves of egg carton-shaped materials do not absorb sound waves in their entirety. Instead, they break these sound waves up into multiple frequencies and echo them in various directions, which radically reduces the level of noise production and echo in your room. How can you […]
