Which is most important to ensure the largest light collecting power of a telescope? The most important of all the powers of an optical telescope is its light-gathering power. This capacity is strictly a function of the diameter of the clear objective—that is, the aperture—of the telescope. How many times longer than your eye can […]

How does inertia apply to bowling? The inertia of the bowling ball, when rolled down the lane, will resist the change in its motion. The ball will continue to roll until acted upon by a greater force. When a ball is rolled down a carpet lane with nothing in its way, the ball will come […]

Trees, and all photosynthesizing plants, use the energy of the sun to split atmospheric carbon dioxide into its constituents: oxygen and carbon. And carbon is the primary building block of the tree — […]
