What are the 5 steps of the hydrologic cycle? Student Features. Many processes work together to keep Earth’s water moving in a cycle. There are five processes at work in the hydrologic cycle: condensation, precipitation, infiltration, runoff, and evapotranspiration. These occur simultaneously and, except for precipitation, continuously. Why is hydrologic cycle important? The hydrologic cycle […]
How do electrolytic cells work?
How do electrolytic cells work? An electrolytic cell converts electrical energy into chemical energy. Here, the redox reaction is spontaneous and is responsible for the production of electrical energy. The reaction at the anode is oxidation and that at the cathode is reduction. Here, the anode is positive and cathode is the negative electrode. What […]
What is the relationship between volume and pressure for a gas?
What is the relationship between volume and pressure for a gas? It is summarized in the statement now known as Boyle’s law: The volume of a given amount of gas held at constant temperature is inversely proportional to the pressure under which it is measured. Are volume and temperature directly proportional? The volume of a […]
How does heat transfer from one object to another and why does it generally flow from the hotter the colder object?
How does heat transfer from one object to another and why does it generally flow from the hotter the colder object? Thermal conduction involves energy in the form of heat being transferred from a hot region to a cooler region through a material. At the hotter end the atoms, molecules, and electrons vibrate with more […]
Does your little toe help you balance?
Does your little toe help you balance? Your toes play an important role in keeping you balanced as you move, whether you’re barefoot or wearing shoes. Your pinky is the smallest toe, but it’s crucial in helping you to maintain your balance. It helps to think of your foot as having a triangular base of […]
Which element stops fusion in a high mass star?
Which element stops fusion in a high mass star? iron What stars High Mass? High mass stars (stars with masses greater than three times the mass of the Sun) are the largest, hottest and brightest Main Sequence stars and blue, blue-white or white in colour. Supernovae release these elements into space making them available to […]
What is the line of symmetry on a graph?
What is blue light and why is it bad?
What is blue light and why is it bad? Continued exposure to blue light over time could damage retinal cells and cause vision problems such as age-related macular degeneration. It can also contribute to cataracts, eye cancer and growths on the clear covering over the white part of the eye. What does blue light symbolize? […]
When a device is used in a circuit in which the voltage is 81V?
What is the difference between synoptic and prognostic charts?
What is the difference between synoptic and prognostic charts? 2. How are prognostic charts different from synoptic weather maps? ď‚·Prognostic charts are computer generated forecast showing the expected pressure pattern at a specific future time. Synoptic weather maps describe the state of the atmosphere over a large area at a given moment. What is good […]
