What is an example of a force causing an object to start moving? If you throw a ball, you are pushing on it to start its movement. If you drop an object, the force of gravity causes it to move. If an object is initially stationary, it accelerates when it starts to move. Acceleration is […]
Which two substances Cannot be broken down?
Which two substances Cannot be broken down? Each kind of atom is an element. Elements are pure substances that cannot be broken down into simpler substances by ordinary chemical means. Can antimony be broken down by chemical means? The substance that can not be broken down by chemical means is antimony. What Cannot be broken […]
What is first party logistics?
What is first party logistics? First Party Logistics refers to logistics handled internally by a company. In this case, the manufacturer does not outsource transport or other logistic activities to third parties. The manufacturer stores goods in his warehouse and owns vehicles that will deliver goods to customers. What is 4PL and 5PL? The 5PL […]
Is it true that a pendulum clock runs faster in winter and slower in summer?
Is P and N directly proportional?
Is P and N directly proportional? Boyle’s law states that pressure (P) and volume (V) are inversely proportional. Gay-Lussac’s law states that pressure (P) and temperature (T) are directly proportional. Avagadro’s law states that the amount (n) of a substance is directly proportional to the volume (V). How do you solve for V in PV […]
What is the effect of grazing in our environment?
What is the effect of grazing in our environment? Grazing can damage habitats, destroy native plants and cause soil erosion. When livestock eat native plants, invasive plants often replace them. This reduces food supply in ecosystems because the animals start competing for non-invasive plants for food. Is a grazing animal? In agriculture, grazing is a […]
What is the relationship between refractive index and wavelength?
What is the relationship between refractive index and wavelength? v = f. Combining the above expression for velocity with the definition of index of refraction, we find a relationship between the wavelength = v/f in a medium and the wavelength 0 = c/f in vacuum: In the above equation, the frequencies cancel because frequency does […]
Does transfer intent apply conversion?
Does transfer intent apply conversion? Transferred intent may occur through a transfer of intent from person to person, or from tort to tort. Transferred intent is applicable to assault, battery, trespass to land, trespass to chattels, and false imprisonment, but transferred intent is not applicable to IIED or conversion. What is the difference between theft […]
