What is the crescent shaped surface of liquid the forms pipettes and graduated cylinders?
That crescent shaped surface is known as the meniscus, and is a response to the shape of the container by the liquid.
How does the surface temperature of concrete compare to the ambient air temperature around it?
Ambient air and surface temperature do not usually equal each other. The air temperature will usually be higher than the surface temperature because the surface must absorb the temperature around it which happens steadily instead of right away.
How does ground motion produced by a p wave compare to the ground motion produced by surface waves?
The underground motion of a P-wave usually effects the us less than ones near or on the surface.
What does a visual cliff measure?
Its an experimental apparatus that gives an illusion of a sudden drop between one horizontal surface and another. Meaning that it is used to measure depth perception, especially in infants, to see how they react.
Why does a curling stone go such a long way?
Because it is thrown on a surface that has extremely low friction (like ice, or a polished surface). The low friction means that it will slow down very slowly, and so go for a long time.
What does the Hertzsprung-Russell compare?
They compare surface temperature (horizontal axis) and luminosity (vertical axis).
What is the curve that you see at the liquid's surface?
The meniscus is the curve at the liquid's surface. It is produced in response to the surface of the container or another object.
what planet has an extremely high pressure at its surface?
Venus
Can monkeys live on Jupiter?
No. Extremely cold, extremely high gravity, poisonous atmosphere, no solid surface. No bananas.
How does the force of gravity on Jupiter compare to the force of gravity in Earth?
At the surface, it is 2.64 times its value at the Earth's surface.
How does the area of Earths surface covered by the oceans compare with the area of the continents?
One third is surface and the rest is the sea.
How does the surface gravity on Mars compare that on Earth?
Mars's gravity is 38% of Earth's.
How do you find whether a cone and a cylinder have equal surface area?
Calculate them and compare.
When you compare your two answers for surface area why should the answers be the same?
Because an object can only have one value for its surface area.
How does the gravitational pool of the moon compare to that of earth?
An object on the surface of the moon weighs about 1/6 as muchas it weighs on the surface of the Earth.
Is things living on planet Venus?
Probably not; the surface of Venus is extremely hot.
What does mercury's weak magnetic field tell scientists?
It tells scientists that Heat Rays or Solar Flares directed from the sun can easily touch the surface making the Temperature above 400 Degrees Celcius.. So this is an extremely hot temperature compare to other planets :)
