What are types of damped oscillation? The diagram shown on the right indicates three types of damped harmonic motion. Critically damped: The system returns to equilibrium as quickly as possible without oscillating. Underdamped: The system oscillates (at reduced frequency compared to the undamped case) with the amplitude gradually decreasing to zero. What is positive damping? […]
What is the process of nitrification?
What is the process of nitrification? Nitrification is a microbial process by which reduced nitrogen compounds (primarily ammonia) are sequentially oxidized to nitrite and nitrate. Ammonia is present in drinking water through either naturally-occurring processes or through ammonia addition during secondary disinfection to form chloramines. What are the steps of nitrification? In general, the nitrogen […]
What is the basic principle of air wedge experiment?
What is the basic principle of air wedge experiment? The phase difference between the two rays is used to get interference fringes. It’s alternative light and dark fringes. The path difference between the rays has to be equal. What is meant by air wedge? Air Wedge. An air wedge is a simple interferometer used to […]

What are the characteristics of a warm front?
What are the characteristics of a warm front? Warm fronts are typically characterized by a transition from southeasterly to southwesterly winds. Unlike cold fronts, winds along the front itself are generally light and variable. Warm fronts, as their name implies, are also characterized by a rise in temperature, but also humidity. When a weather front […]
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 […]
What are the 3 factors that sustain life on Earth?
What are the 3 factors that sustain life on Earth? What are the 3 interconnected factors that sustain life on earth? Solar energy, nutrient cycles, and gravity. What are the features that make life possible on Earth? What makes the Earth habitable? It is the right distance from the Sun, it is protected from harmful […]
Why is my house so full of static electricity?
Why is my house so full of static electricity? Static increases when the air gets cold and humidity drops. To stay warm in your home, you turn up the heat, further adding to a decrease in humidity and increasing static. While static can be annoying and sometimes painful, there are some simple things you can […]
Why does black make me look thinner?
Why does black make me look thinner? This illusion could explain why we think black is more flattering than white; black shapes appear thinner than white shapes, possibly because the contours of black objects have more definition. A lighter color object will have lines, shapes, and perhaps partitions on it that are very visible to […]
What is the shape of gef2?
What is the shape of gef2? trigonal planar What is Vsepr formula? The “AXE method” of electron counting is commonly used when applying the VSEPR theory. The electron pairs around a central atom are represented by a formula AXnEm, where A represents the central atom and always has an implied subscript one. Each E represents […]
