These crimes are known as “strict liability” since only the act itself (actus reus) is necessary to be proven in order to secure a conviction. What is homicide committed without malice?

What is length of simple pendulum? The time period of a simple pendulum: It is defined as the time taken by the pendulum to finish one full oscillation and is denoted by “T”. Length of a simple pendulum: It is defined as the distance between the point of suspension to the centre of the bob […]

What is a nucleus example? The nucleus is the center core of an atom that has a positive charge and that contains most of the atom’s mass, or the central heart of an organization or group. An example of a nucleus is the center core of an atom. What will happen if the nucleus of […]

What happens when you combine magnetic fields? When magnets are close together, with their fields overlapping, the fields combine to produce a resultant field which acts in one direction at any given point. The point X is called a neutral point. The forces due to both magnets cancel each other, i.e. there is no net […]

If the Prandtl number is 1, the […]

Do animals release carbon dioxide? In animals, oxygen combines with food in the cells to produce energy for daily activity and then gives off carbon. The carbon combines with oxygen to form carbon dioxide (CO2) and is released back into the atmosphere as a waste product when animals breathe and exhale. How does carbon dioxide […]
