What is the main magnetic field? The Main Magnetic Field originates from a dynamo process in the fluid outer core of the Earth. It strongly dominates over the various other contributions to the geomagnetic field, accounting for over 95% of the field strength observed at the Earth’s surface. What is the strength of an MRI […]
What are the two types of graded potentials?
What are the two types of graded potentials? Graded potentials can be of two sorts, either they are depolarizing or hyperpolarizing (Figure 1). Are EPSPs graded potentials? Graded potentials that make the membrane potential less negative or more positive, thus making the postsynaptic cell more likely to have an action potential, are called excitatory postsynaptic […]
What happens when frequency of a sound increases?
What happens when frequency of a sound increases? When you increase the frequency of a sound wave, the sound waves get compressed and we hear the sound at a faster rate. The pitch of the sound increases. What would happen if you increased the frequency of a sound? So if you increase the frequency, on […]
Which energy has the shortest wavelength?
Which energy has the shortest wavelength? Gamma Rays Which transition has the highest frequency? (ii) Energy and frequency are directly related. Therefore the highest-energy transition is also the one with the highest frequency (n = 3 —> n = 1). What is the transition Imagen of maximum frequency? 5th spectral line of Humphery series. Which […]
Why does tightening a string increase pitch?
Why does tightening a string increase pitch? Tightening the string gives it a higher frequency while loosening it lowers the frequency. This higher frequency of vibration means that the air particles around the string carry a higher frequency sound wave to your ear, which perceives the higher frequency as a higher pitch. What happens if […]
Is Melting snow a physical change?
Why do waves slow down in shallow water?
Do astronomers use reflecting or refracting telescopes?
Do astronomers use reflecting or refracting telescopes? A refractor uses lenses within a tube to refract (bend) light. It’s the type of long telescope which you might imagine old-time astronomers, like Galileo, using. Reflectors, on the other hand, use mirrors instead of lenses to reflect light. Most modern observatories use reflectors because their telescopes are […]
Is the mains AC or DC?
Is the mains AC or DC? AC stands for ‘alternating current’ which means the current constantly changes direction. Mains electricity is an AC supply, and the UK mains supply is about 230 volts. It has a frequency of 50Hz (50 hertz), which means it changes direction and back again 50 times a second. What is […]
What are the 6 basic principles?
What are the 6 basic principles? The six underlying principles of the Constitution are popular sovereignty, federalism, separation of powers, checks and balances, judicial review, and limited government. Which of the six basic principles of the constitution is the most important? Self-government is the most important principle in the U.S. Constitution. It was the intent […]
