What is a pulley system in physics?

What is a pulley system in physics? Pulleys are mechanisms compost by wheel and rope used to lift heavy objects onto tall heights. They change the direction of an applied force and they can even reduce the force needed to lift a weight. Pulleys systems are common used in constructions. What is the tension formula? […]

What was the conclusion of the gold foil experiment?

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 […]

What are the two theories of population?

What are the two theories of population? The theories are: 1. The Malthusian Theory of Population 2. The Optimum Theory of Population 3. The Theory of Demographic Transition. What are the three basic phases of population growth? They are: (i) the high stationary phase marked by high fertility and mortality rates; (ii) the early expanding […]

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 is hydraulic principle?

What is hydraulic principle? The basic principle behind any hydraulic system is very simple – pressure applied anywhere to a body of fluid causes a force to be transmitted equally in all directions, with the force acting at right angles to any surface in contact with the fluid. This is known as Pascal’s Law. What […]

Is loudness related to frequency?

Is loudness related to frequency? Now when talking about sound waves the sound level of a noise (loudness), it is proportional to the intensity of the source. The loudness of a sound does not seem to depend on frequency. But according to the equation above, intensity DOES depend on frequency. How loud is 1000hz? Using […]

How do emotions affect our perception?

How do emotions affect our perception? Emotional arousal guides attention so that people’s attention tends to be drawn to objects that are arousing. As we shall see, some of the important influences of emotion on perception are mediated by attention, but emotion can also influence pre-attentive perceptual processes. How do emotions affect reality? Emotions drive […]
