Which drum makes a sound that fades away faster? Fading away of sound waves depends on the wavelength of the sound. The one that has a loud sound with high frequency will have a brighter sound. While the more mellow one will have the bassier sound. Therefore, the sound with a more mellow sound will […]

What is the relationship between mass and weight of an object? Mass is a measure of how much matter there is in an object, while weight is a measure of the size of the pull of gravity on the object. Mass is the amount of matter in an object. Mass is measured in kilograms (kg). […]

What if Earth had no tilt? The tilt of Earth’s axis is the main cause of the seasons. If Earth had no tilt, then the length of daylight and the intensity of solar heating seen by a person standing at a single place on the surface would be the same all year round. What if […]

What are the negative effects of technology in the workplace? Distraction is one of the most harmful impacts of technology at the workplace. The result? Cognitive scientist Gloria Mark says, is, people compensating for interruptions by working faster, leading to stress, frustration and pressure. All of this leads to poor productivity. Why the technology is […]

What is centripetal force equal to? The magnitude F of the centripetal force is equal to the mass m of the body times its velocity squared v 2 divided by the radius r of its path: F=mv2/r. According to Newton’s third law of motion, for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. Why […]

What happens to wavelength of energy increases? The number of complete wavelengths in a given unit of time is called frequency (f). As a wavelength increases in size, its frequency and energy (E) decrease. From these equations you may realize that as the frequency increases, the wavelength gets shorter. As the frequency decreases, the wavelength […]

What are the types of systematic errors? Systematic errors may be of four kinds: Instrumental. For example, a poorly calibrated instrument such as a thermometer that reads 102 oC when immersed in boiling water and 2 oC when immersed in ice water at atmospheric pressure. Observational. For example, parallax in reading a meter scale. Environmental. […]

How does consumerism affect healthcare? Healthcare consumerism transforms an employer’s health benefit plan, putting the economic purchasing power and decision-making in the hands of plan participants. In short, healthcare consumerism’s goal is to enable patients to become wholly involved in their healthcare decisions. Why is consumer experience a problem in healthcare? One of the biggest […]
