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 are contour lines for Class 7?
What are contour lines for Class 7? (i) Contour lines are isolines of height. (ii) These are drawn by joining the places of equal altitude. (iii) These help in identification of land forms and their altitude from sea level. (iv) These lines also help us to understand the nature and direction of the slope. What […]
What is the value of 1 pico Farad?
What is the value of 1 pico Farad? 1/1,000,000,000,000 What is capacitance value? Capacitance is expressed as the ratio of the electric charge on each conductor to the potential difference (i.e., voltage) between them. The capacitance value of a capacitor is measured in farads (F), units named for English physicist Michael Faraday (1791–1867). A farad […]
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 […]
How do you know if an image is real or virtual?
What would happen to pressure in the tire if some of the air were removed?
What would happen to pressure in the tire if some of the air were removed? The pressure inside the tire will keep on decreasing as more air leaks out of the tire because the number of air particles inside the tire decreases resulting in less collisions than before and due to the less frequent collisions […]
What are the different type of measurement?
What are the different type of measurement? The four scales of measurement Nominal scale of measurement. The nominal scale of measurement defines the identity property of data. Ordinal scale of measurement. The ordinal scale defines data that is placed in a specific order. Interval scale of measurement. Ratio scale of measurement. What is the difference […]
Do magnets get stronger if you stack them?
Do magnets get stronger if you stack them? Once a magnet is fully magnetised, it cannot be made any stronger as it is fully ‘saturated’. As more magnets are stacked together, the strength will increase until the length of the stack is equal to the diameter. After this point, any further magnets added will provide […]
What is the oldest ice core sample?
What is the oldest ice core sample? The deepest ice core records come from Antarctica and Greenland, where the very deepest ice cores extend to 3 kilometers (over two miles) in depth. The oldest continuous ice core records extend to 130,000 years in Greenland, and 800,000 years in Antarctica. What two events must occur for […]
What are 3 ways to improve your body composition?
What are 3 ways to improve your body composition? Summary: Nutrition and exercise are critical for improving body composition. Keeping your calories, fiber and protein in check is a good first step. All exercise can help with fat loss, but weight training is the best way to increase muscle mass. What is the best way […]
