How do you talk about timbre?
How do you talk about timbre? Terms we might use to describe timbre: bright, dark, brassy, reedy, harsh, noisy, thin, buzzy, pure, raspy, shrill, mellow, strained. I prefer to avoid describing timbre in emotional terms (excited, angry, happy, sad, etc.); that is not the sound quality, it is its effect or interpretation. What does timbre […]
Does size affect buoyancy?
Does size affect buoyancy? Because the buoyancy of a solid cube of material depends on its density, which does not vary with the size of the object, changing the size of a cube does not affect whether it will sink or float. Do things weigh less underwater? A: When objects are placed in water, their […]
What happens if a hairline fracture is untreated?
What happens if a hairline fracture is untreated? When a bone fracture is untreated, it can result in either a nonunion or a delayed union. In the former case, the bone doesn’t heal at all, which means that it will remain broken. As a result, swelling, tenderness, and pain will continue to worsen over time. […]
What chemicals are needed for muscle contraction?
What chemicals are needed for muscle contraction? In order to perform the mechanical work of contraction, actin and myosin utilize the chemical energy of the molecule adenosine triphosphate (ATP). What are two ways that calcium is needed for muscle contraction to occur be specific? (1) Calcium binds to troponin C, causing the conformational shift in […]
Do forces have direction?
Do forces have direction? A force is a vector quantity. As learned in an earlier unit, a vector quantity is a quantity that has both magnitude and direction. Because a force is a vector that has a direction, it is common to represent forces using diagrams in which a force is represented by an arrow. […]
Are rocks stronger under tension or compression?
Are rocks stronger under tension or compression? Rock is strong under compression but relatively weak under tension and shear. This is a result of the microscopic structure of rock: it contains microscopic cracks which are forced open and enlarged by tension and shear but which are forced closed by compression. What increases rock strength? The […]

What 3 types of EM waves are dangerous to humans?
What 3 types of EM waves are dangerous to humans? The most dangerous frequencies of electromagnetic energy are X-rays, gamma rays, ultraviolet light and microwaves. X-rays, gamma rays and UV light can damage living tissues, and microwaves can cook them. How long does it take for gamma rays to kill you? Most deaths occur within […]
What is K in capacitor?
What is K in capacitor? Also, sometimes capacitors are marked with the capital letter K to signify a value of one thousand pico-Farads, so for example, a capacitor with the markings of 100K would be 100 x 1000pF or 100nF. Are capacitors color coded? The capacitors use a capacitor color code similar to the resistors […]
