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 […]

Is it safe to use a microwave that has peeling paint inside?
Is it safe to use a microwave that has peeling paint inside? If the coating is actively flaking or paint is peeling anywhere inside the oven cavity (including under the turntable) discontinue the use of the microwave and replace it. The microwave is not repairable. The inadvertent ingestion of small amounts of peeling coating does […]
How does shape affect diffusion?
How does shape affect diffusion? Diffusion is like going through a net or sieve. Smaller sizes and shapes pass through more easily than large ones. What is the relationship between cell size and diffusion? The surface-to-volume ratio of a sphere is 3/r; as the cell gets bigger, its surface-to-volume ratio decreases, making diffusion less efficient. […]
How much pollution does energy produce?
How much pollution does energy produce? It’s a significant body of data given that power generation accounts for about a quarter of global carbon dioxide emissions at 10 billion tonnes per year. Over a quarter of that comes from the 8000 power plants in the United States, making its energy sector the biggest carbon emitter […]
What is the average force of impact?
What is the average force of impact? The most straightforward way to approach the concept of average force is to multiply the constant mass times the average acceleration, and in that approach the average force is an average over time. Another approach that is valuable for assessing the impact force in high speed collisions is […]

Why are fossils so important?
Why are fossils so important? Fossils of any kind are useful in “reading the rock record,” meaning they help us decipher the history of the earth. They can help us determine the geologic age and environment (the paleoenvironment) in which they were deposited. What are the five types of fossils? Five different types of fossils […]
