Can a population increase even though its growth rate is decreasing? Not only the population itself was growing, but also the doubling time was decreasing, which basically means that growth itself was growing. This rapid growth increase was mainly caused by a decreasing death rate (more rapidly than birth rate), and particularly an increase in […]

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 […]

What is the difference between heat transfer by conduction and convection? In conduction, heat transfer takes place between objects by direct contact. In convection, the heat transfer takes within the fluid. The heat transfer occurs through a heated solid object. What is the difference between conduction and convection name one medium in? hope this helps. […]

Can melted butter be refrigerated again? To retain its color, texture and hardness you must keep it in the fridge or in a very cool room. If you have leftover melted butter from a cooking or baking project you can put it back in the fridge and it will harden, but it will also remain […]

What do you call the problem in a story? CONFLICT. Every story has a conflict to solve. The plot is centered on this conflict and the ways in which the characters attempt to resolve the problem. When the story’s action becomes most exciting, right before the resolution, it is called the climax. What is a […]

What does it mean to find the inverse of a function? An inverse function is a function that undoes the action of the another function. A function g is the inverse of a function f if whenever y=f(x) then x=g(y). In other words, applying f and then g is the same thing as doing nothing. […]

When would you use a perspective view? Answer: You would use isometric when drawing things from above, like a house plan, while perspective is used to show what the object’s entire design appears to be. What is drawing in perspective? Perspective is what gives a three-dimensional feeling to a flat image such as a drawing […]

How do I test my water table level? The most reliable method of obtaining the depth to the water table at any given time is to measure the water level in a shallow well with a tape. If no wells are available, surface geophysical methods can sometimes be used, depending on surface accessibility for placing […]

Do trees grow out of the air? But the truth is, trees are actually formed largely out of the air. (Yes, air!) 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 — […]
