When two particles with like charges are close enough to interact is the potential energy positive or negative? The graphs of potential energy between two charges for like and unlike charges are shown below. For like charges, the potential energy is always positive, that is because we need to put energy in the system to […]
Which country is coal rich and oil poor?
Which country is coal rich and oil poor? India: Rich in coal but poor in energy. What is chemical formula of oil? The chemical formula for crude oil is CnH2n+2, where n is a positive integer. Crude oil is basically a combination of several hydrocarbon molecules, comprising hydrogen, H and carbon atoms, C. Among the […]
How do you explain combustion?
How do you explain combustion? Combustion is a chemical process in which a substance reacts rapidly with oxygen and gives off heat. The original substance is called the fuel, and the source of oxygen is called the oxidizer. The fuel can be a solid, liquid, or gas, although for airplane propulsion the fuel is usually […]
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 the 3 basic types of scaffolds in the construction industry?
What are the 3 basic types of scaffolds in the construction industry? Workers who use scaffolds can be divided into three groups: Suspended Scaffolds. Supported Scaffolds. Aerial Lifts. What is the narrowest scaffolding? Narrowest 600mm scaffold tower For our narrowest tower try the stair tower. It comes in a 600mm wide frame so it can […]
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 […]
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 […]
What is a good crop productivity index?
What is a good crop productivity index? CSR2 ranges from 5 (least productive) to 100 (most productive). CSR2 lets farmers and landowners easily compare productivity across farms. For example, a farm with an average CSR2 of 85 is significantly more productive than one with an average CSR2 of 60. How do you define productivity? Productivity […]
What are the main causes of habitat destruction?
What are the main causes of habitat destruction? Habitat destruction is the leading cause of biodiversity loss. Activities such as harvesting natural resources, industrial production and urbanization are human contributions to habitat destruction. Pressure from agriculture is the principal human cause. Some others include mining, logging, trawling, and urban sprawl. Why do animals die when […]
