When a jug boils there are large bubbles in the water What are the bubbles made of?

When water boils the gasses which where absorbed are liberated and they expand as a result of the heat causing bubbles which then rise to the surface upon further heating it would be the water turning to steam that expands into bubbles, that is why the bubbles only form at the point of contact with the heat source. there could be some oxygen in the bubbles but it would be extremely small amounts as the heat does not split the bond between the oxygen and the hydrogen.


What would cause there to be oxygen in bubbles?

This is very vague. Oxygen bubbles would be produced by some kind of chemical reaction in which one of the results is oxygen. Do you have more specifics as to when/where these oxygen bubbles would be produced?


Why would a soap manufacturer want soap to make less bubbles?

There's no reason soap is made to clean with bubbles.


Why are soap suds always white even when the soap itself isn't?

Bubbles are made of water and have air inside Water has a higher refractive index than air (it slows down light more), and because they are spherical, they act like a divergent lens, bending the light. As the light bounces through many bubble surfaces it is bent each time- it is scattered (reflected and refracted) in all directions (including back to your eyes). All the wavelengths (which equate to colours) act in the same way- (hardly any of the light is absorbed as the coloured water-the bubble- is so thin) Colours are seen when white light is shone through an object (in this case coloured bath water), where wavelengths of a particular length are absorbed and others are unaffected. Refraction occurs when light goes through an object (a rainbow is made when light refracts through water and shows how white light is made up of all different colours) Reflection occurs when light is bounced back off a surface As all wavelengths act the same, if you shine light on the bubbles, the same proportions of wavelengths gets back to your eyes. As you're using white light from a bulb or the sun (which is made up of all the colours with a wide range of wavelengths)- you'll see white bubbles. (of course if you used a red light for example- you would see red bubbles) If the coloured liquid was very thick or had a very intense colour, the bubbles would be lightly tinged as more of the corresponding wavelengths are absorbed- but still much lighter than the bulk fluid. (e.g. bubbles on the head of a Guinness are more creamy than white because of the dark brown liquid). I hope that this has answered your question :)


Why is the speed of electron beam greater than the light speed in cathode ray oscilloscope?

It isn't. Nothing travels faster than light, especially an electron. If it tried it would become infinitely heavy as it reached the speed of light. You would then need an infinite force to accelerate it further. To know more, Google on "special relativity"

What would happened if a household object moved one millimeter at the speed of light?

A household object cannot move at the speed of light, therefore, it is impossible to give a meaningful answer to that question. I will say, however, that if a household object moved one millimeter at anything close to the speed of light, it would have such enormous momentum that it would be impossible to slow it down without causing massive destruction. Your household, and neighborhood, would not survive.


What advantages would astronomers on the moon have over astronomers on the earth studying the universe?

There is no unnatural light to effect the astronomer and it is further away so you can see further.

Do all dogs like to play with bubbles?

No not all dogs play with bubbles, but some would they are all different like my friend has a dog that will not do anything so i know that would not play with bubbles and i have a dog who will play with bubbles so i know that they are all different.


What is the maximum distance of a star to earth?

The maximum distance would be close to infinity. Some galaxies are expanding at almost 80% the speed of light. So by the time we observe them, they have "moved" further away.If the Universe keeps expanding, then the figure will never be known.The furthest galaxy so far observed is around 14 billion light years away.


How do kids play with bubbles?

Kids love bubbles. Kids love bubbles because they can have fun on a hot summer day. They love to play with bubbles inside and outside. When parents make party bags they always include bubbles because they think kids would enjoy playing with bubbles.

What would happen if you moved an object that was attached to another by a string several light-years long?

Tidal forces would probably break a string that was several light years long, no matter what sort of unobtainium you made the string from.


Why are bubbles different sizes?

Assuming you're discussing soap-bubbles... The size would be dependent on the amount of bubble solution, and the amount of air inside the bubble. The method for creating the bubble is rarely completely uniform, yielding bubbles of different sizes. The same would be true of any detergent bubbles.
