What are marine habitats two examples? Marine habitats include coastal zones, intertidal zones, sandy shores, rocky shores, mudflats, swamps and salt marshes, estuaries, kelp forests, seagrasses, and coral reefs. In addition, in the open ocean there are surface waters, deep sea and sea floor. What is the deepest marine habitat? DEEP SEA What are the […]

What type of energy is stored in capacitor? electrostatic potential energy Does a dielectric increase stored energy? Inserting a dielectric increases the capacitance, reducing the energy stored in the capacitor. The capacitor actually does work to pull the dielectric in between the plates, reducing the stored energy. Why is half of the energy lost in […]

What could you do in 8 minutes? 27 things you can do in 8 minutes and 46 seconds. By LISA OWENS. You can walk 0.44 miles @ 3mph. You can run 0.88 miles @ 6mph. You can drive 5.11 miles in the city @ 35mph. You can drive 8.76 miles on the highway @ 60mph. […]

Is differential equations the hardest math class? Even though there are some aspects of differential equations that can be difficult, overall, I would say that differential equations are actually one of the easier higher level math classes. In addition, differential equations do not tend to be as proof heavy as other higher level math classes. […]

What are the gateway drugs and why are they called as such? A gateway drug is a term that is commonly used in reference to particular substances that are thought to open the way to using more dangerous or harder drugs such as heroin or cocaine. What does gateway drug mean? The definition of a […]

What are core drill bits? Core drill bits are designed to cut large holes in dense materials, like masonry, brick and stone, and remove a core of debris. They feature large notched teeth that cut cleanly and precisely. What is a coring bit used for? A core bit (Fig. 1, Fig. 2) is a drilling […]

Why is my car making a whining noise when I drive? If you hear a whining noise from your car’s engine, it may mean much the same thing: there’s a component that’s worn out. If these parts break or wear down entirely, they could cause damage, so hearing a whining sound means that it’s time […]

Why is my breadmaker bread so dense? Dense bread is the result of four possible agents: dead yeast due to water heat, not enough or damaged gluten, insufficient kneading or inadequate rising time. For bread made in a bread machine, the programs are set to mix, knead, rise and bake according to the selected recipe. […]

What is called battery? A battery is a device that converts chemical energy contained within its active materials directly into electric energy by means of an electrochemical oxidation-reduction (redox) reaction. This type of reaction involves the transfer of electrons from one material to another via an electric circuit. What is the symbol of battery? Cells […]

What is shear strain equal to? Shear strain is defined by the ratio of the largest displacement Δx to the transverse distance L0. shear strain=ΔxL0. shear strain = Δ x L 0 . Shear strain is caused by shear stress. Shear stress is due to forces that act parallel to the surface. What is shear […]
