Can a potato form new roots I still need more information for my science project.?

It sure can. All you need is a potato, four toothpicks, and a glass of water. The toothpicks are arranged in the potato in such a manner as to support it on the rim of the glass ... half of the potato is submerged in water, the other half remains dry. Soon, new roots will appear in the submerged parts.

How can you prevent from crying while cutting an onion?

I read something that said to burn a candle while cutting an onion. I tried it and it actually worked.Another method is to cut the onion under water.when cutting onions place your cut pieces into cold water to maintain the tear gases.When you peel your onion dip it in cold water before cutting and continue to dunk it periodically as you cut to keep those tear gases to a minimumonion is also good for those burned rice situations-- just cut an onion in half and put it into the pot of burned rice to eliminate that burned rice odor-- This may not always work with the taste of burned rice but at least you can somewhat control the odor.

How many milli-amps does a potato produce?

I think there are many variables in this, the size of the potato, the potato it's self, how much of what metal you are using to produce the electrical exchange. for an experiment I took a large potato just now, I sanded down one side of two pennies so that half was copper and half was zinc, I stuck these pennies deeply into the large potato then tested with a multimeter. It produced 0.55v at 0.00mA I'm sure if I had proper copper/zinc rods I might be able to produce better results, but it doesn't seem to be very promising in the mA area.


Remove pepper from food?

One way to remove the taste of too much pepper from food that you are preparing is to increase the broth, or sauce in the dish. You can also add sour cream to make the food taste less peppery. You can also remove pepper by cutting a raw potato in half and adding it to the pot, let it cook for fifteen minutes and then remove the potato. A lot of the pepper will have been absorbed by the potato.
