On the contrary, shock waves from supernovae can actually trigger star formation.

Why does gun powder make noise?

When it burns, it does so VERY quickly, producing a cloud of very hot gasses. Those gasses expand rapidly, creating a shock wave. That shock wave pushes against air very quickly, creating sound.

Why do you get shocked?

Electricity travels from one object to your body, creating the shock.


How do you get the Reanimator merit in Scribblenauts?

type in corpse and then shock the corpse with a thunderbolt. Basically, its just creating a zombie.


What happens when a land mine explodes?

Explosives detonate, creating a rapidly expanding shock wave. In some cases, the shock wave alone causes injury or death. In other cases, the shock wave drives projectiles that cause injury.


In order for a clump of matter to in a gas cloud to become a star it must?

In order for a clump of matter in a gas cloud to become a star, it must be a whopping BIG gas cloud, so that the mutual gravitation of the cloud would cause it to collapse in on itself. There are some theories that a large and diffuse gas cloud would be unlikely to spontaneously collapse under its own gravity without some substantial shock to the gas cloud. The shock wave of a nearby supernova explosion would not only provide the shock, but also contribute a substantial amount of newly-created heavy elements to the system. Such a supernova five billion years ago probably provided a lot of the iron, gold and uranium to our solar system, and also caused our stellar nebula to collapse, forming our Sun and our planetary system.


How do you create static discharge?

In nature, a static discharge will be lightning. you can also create static discharge by rubbing your feet against a carpet and touching the door knob afterwards. You can feel the shock, which is a static discharge!!


What did voyager discover?

On December 18, 2004, Voyager 1 passed the termination shock. This is the unofficial date of departure from the Solar System. Whilst the spacecraft still remains under the Sun's influence, at the termination shock particles from the interstellar medium interact with solar particles, signaling that the hypothetical heliopause is not far from this point. It did not discover anything, rather it inferred the existence of the heliosphere.


Why should we not touch the electrical appliance connected in a circuit with wet hands?

We will provide the electrical circuit with a pathway through our body to the ground. The shock could be large enough to kill us, or disrupt the rhythm of our heart beats.


How would you describe electricity?

Lightning is an electrical discharge or short duration and high voltage between a cloud and Earth, or within a cloud. It is accompanied by the release of light (a flash or lightning bolt), and, usually, thunder (a loud noise).


Is there anything that can you weared to prevent electrictrical shock?

yes if stand on stylaphone (don't know how to spell it) pads then the shock waves can't go through you to get to the ground. the shock waves in the fence get pulled down to earth but can't and are creating an electrical shock if you touch it so think about it if you stand on something that electricity can't get through it will stop the pulse of it and you won't be harmed in anyway! i know it sounds weird but it works! xx =]
