How long can germs survive on metal?

How long germs can survive on metal can vary greatly. It would depend on the type of metal, the type of germ, and if the metal is wet or dry. On average, germs can last years in many cases.


Why do get electrocuted if you're wet?

the metal is a conducting metal and when this touches water it becomes the second conductor and so it sends an electrical surge to what ever is touching the water (you!).


What is the metal strip on a ruler?

It is a guide strip. If you were using wet ink or someting like that the ink would smear without the medal guide. With the metal guide it allows you to follow th rulers edge without contacting the ruler where it meets the paper. If the ink touched both the ruler and paper at exactly the same time you would have smears.


Is dry ice or normal ice heavier?

Ice expands as it warms. At 4 degrees C water achieves it's maximum density. Warm ice is less dense than cold ice. Any amount of liquid water would mean that the ice has gotten as warm as it can get and that it is in equilibrium with the liquid water. The ice, being crystalline, has a discreet melting point so it is either water or it is warm ice. If the ice is wet, it is less dense than ice that is cold enough that the water in contact with it freezes. That doesn't mean that warm ice must be wet ice. If the water is removed, the dry ice will be the same density as the wet ice of the same temperature. Having said that, it is possible that you want to contrast the density of frozen carbon dioxide to water ice. * Water ice has a density of 0.92 g/ml * Dry ice (CO2) has a density range from 1.4 to 1.6 g/ml


What is the observation of a wet spot on a hot highway in the summer caused by?

This is caused by refraction. A variation in air density corresponds to variation in refractive index of the air, locally near the road.

What is the dry density if soil has wet density of 130 lb-cf a specific gravity of solids 2.67 and water content of 19 percent?

You can figure out the dry density by dividing the wet density by (1+moisture content), with the moisture content in decimal form. So 130 / (1 + 0.19) = 109.24.
