What are three primary methods of monitoring volcanic activity? Volcanologists use many different kinds of tools including instruments that detect and record earthquakes (seismometers and seimographs), instruments that measure ground deformation (EDM, Leveling, GPS, tilt), instruments that detect and measure volcanic gases (COSPEC), instruments that determine how much lava is … How can we detect […]

What material expands the most when heated? By contrast, iron, with a coefficient of 1.2, is 24 times more likely to expand or contract as a result of changes in temperature. (Steel has the same value as iron.) The coefficient for aluminum is 2.4, twice that of iron or steel. Which state of matter contracts […]

What force is used to lift a weight? gravity Is there work done when lifting weights? As you are lifting the object you are doing work on the object. The work W done on an object by a constant force is defined as W = F·d. It is equal to the magnitude of the force, […]

How do I mask an image layer? To Use Applied Layer Masks Create an Adjustment Layer and Select the Layer Mask. Create an Adjustment Layer and then select the Layer Mask by clicking on the mask. Select Image > Apply Image. Choose the Layer You Want to Apply to the Mask. Choose the Blending Mode. […]

What is the formula for distance in physical science? Formula Description Example s= d/t Speed = distance / time 10 m / s v=d/t with a direction Velocity = distance / time with a direction. 10 m / s north  Greek letter “delta”; change in  Greek letter “sigma”; Sum of What is physical […]

Is a protozoa a virus? Diseases that are caused by viruses include the common cold, influenza, herpes, yellow fever, shingles, rabies, polio, and mononucleosis. Protozoa are single celled organisms. Most protozoa do not cause infections, but a few do. Malaria, dysentery, African sleeping sickness are caused by different species of protozoa. How can you distinguish […]

What is the important of digestive juices in digestive system? Your pancreas makes a digestive juice that has enzymes that break down carbohydrates, fats, and proteins. The pancreas delivers the digestive juice to the small intestine through small tubes called ducts. Liver. Your liver makes a digestive juice called bile that helps digest fats and […]

What was the conclusion of the gold foil experiment? Rutherford’s gold foil experiment showed that the atom is mostly empty space with a tiny, dense, positively-charged nucleus. Based on these results, Rutherford proposed the nuclear model of the atom. Why was gold foil used in Rutherford’s experiment? Rutherford used gold for his scattering experiment because […]

Does without slipping mean no friction? For many dynamics problems, rolling without slipping means there is a friction force acting on the wheel at the contact point P. This friction force prevents slipping. In this instance the friction is known as static friction since there is no relative sliding between the wheel and surface at […]

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 […]
