What are the factors affecting the height of the waves? Wave height is affected by wind speed, wind duration (or how long the wind blows), and fetch, which is the distance over water that the wind blows in a single direction. If wind speed is slow, only small waves result, regardless of wind duration or […]
Is pitch and note the same?
What are five ways to make an observation?
What are five ways to make an observation? Explain that an observation is information we gather about something by using our senses. List the five senses of sight, hearing, taste, touch, and smell. Use their senses to make observations about things in the classroom. What are the direct observation methods? Observations can also be either […]
Can a car run on jet fuel?
Can a car run on jet fuel? Jet fuel can actually be used in cars, but only in diesel engines. Kerosene jet fuel and diesel are actually similar enough to allow for cross-functionality and would provide a similar performance. Both are derived from crude oil, and both run their respective engines on combustion. How much […]
What are the 5 categories of adaptations?
What are the 5 categories of adaptations? The five categories of the adaptations are migration, hibernation, dormancy, camouflage, and estivation. The migration can be defined as the phenomenon of the movement of the animals from one region to another in order for their survival. What is an example of an amazing animal adaptation? Kangaroo rats […]
At what altitude is 0 gravity?
At what altitude is 0 gravity? Near the surface of the Earth (sea level), gravity decreases with height such that linear extrapolation would give zero gravity at a height of one half of the Earth’s radius – (9.8 m·s−2 per 3,200 km.) Which force is always attractive in nature? gravitational force Why gravity is not […]
What energy transformation takes place in a dry cell B electric fan?
What energy transformation takes place in a dry cell B electric fan? 1) in dry cell – chemical energy is converted to electrical energy. 2) In electric fan – electrical energy is converted to mechanical energy and wind energy . Which energy is converted in an electric cell? An electrical cell is an “electrical power […]
Why centrifugal force is called pseudo-force?
Why centrifugal force is called pseudo-force? The centrifugal force is a pseudo-force because if the centripetal force ceased for an object in circular motion, the centrifugal force the body is “feeling” would instantly disappear, and the object would travel tangentially to its line of motion. Can centrifugal force overcome gravity? The centrifugal force is real […]
What is the structure and function of biomolecules?
What is the structure and function of biomolecules? Biomolecule, also called biological molecule, any of numerous substances that are produced by cells and living organisms. Biomolecules have a wide range of sizes and structures and perform a vast array of functions. The four major types of biomolecules are carbohydrates, lipids, nucleic acids, and proteins. What […]
What does velocity relative to the ground mean?
What does velocity relative to the ground mean? The velocity of the object measured relative to the ground is called the ground speed. Again, this is a vector quantity. Airspeed is the vector difference between the ground speed and the wind speed. On a perfectly still day, the airspeed is equal to the ground speed. […]
