Who is the father of atom? Basic Atomic Structure. The idea that everything is made of atoms was pioneered by John Dalton (1766-1844) in a book he published in 1808. He is sometimes called the “father” of atomic theory, but judging from this photo on the right “grandfather” might be a better term. How thick […]
What is needed for an ecosystem to support the greatest variety of organisms?
What is needed for an ecosystem to support the greatest variety of organisms? Answer: An ecosystem must contain producers, consumers, decomposers, and dead and inorganic matter. All ecosystems require energy from an external source – this is usually the sun. Plants need sunlight to photosynthesize and produce glucose, providing an energy source for other organisms. […]
Why can you not fart in space?
Why can you not fart in space? The lack of gravity in space means the air in astronauts’ stomachs doesn’t separate from ingested food, so burping could expel more than just gas. Spaceflight missions also avoid serving high-flatulence foods, like Brussels sprouts and cabbage, to avoid “flammable butt gas” that’s hazardous in pressurized cabins. What […]
Why do things stick to glass?
Why do things stick to glass? The short answer is that glass–an amorphous compound containing primarily silicon and oxygen–tends to form something known as silanol on its surface. They form hydrogen bonds with liquid water, causing it to adhere to the surface of the glass very strongly. Why does water wet glass and mercury doesn […]

What is the main difference between kinetic and potential energy?
What is the main difference between kinetic and potential energy? Energy stored in an object due to its position is Potential Energy. Energy that a moving object has due to its motion is Kinetic Energy. What are the two factors affecting kinetic energy? 1. Explain that there are two factors that affect how much kinetic […]
Do convection heaters use a lot of electricity?
Do convection heaters use a lot of electricity? Gas heaters are generally a little cheaper to run than electricity heaters. Convection gas heaters draw in the cold air and heats it up using a gas-powered element. It then evenly disperses this heat throughout the room. A convection-radiant element is similar, however the element is slightly […]

What do you mean by impedance matching?
What do you mean by impedance matching? The term “impedance matching” is rather straightforward. It’s simply defined as the process of making one impedance look like another. Frequently, it becomes necessary to match a load impedance to the source or internal impedance of a driving source. What is impedance simple words? The definition of an […]
