You may be thinking of an "air foil", which also has the property of "lift" when oriented properly. See: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Airfoil
Knives are sharpened at the end because that is where the cutting action takes place. A sharp edge allows the knife to easily slice through objects without applying too much force. It also helps in creating smooth and precise cuts.
Things slide easily when there is low friction between the surfaces in contact. This can be achieved by using smooth materials, applying lubricants, or reducing the contact area between the surfaces. Additionally, reducing the weight of the object can also make it slide more easily.
A filter or a gatekeeper can be a structure that allows only certain things to pass through. These structures help control and regulate what is permitted to enter or proceed.
Metals mainly. Iron copper water these are things electricity can pass through
I think that the difference is that a semi-permeable allows only certain things to pass through which are those that are small enough while permeable again i say i think allows almost all things to pass through
It's a barrier that allows certain things to pass through it ie. water
Dredging allows us to export and imports things through the dredging channels.
Yes, the cell membrane is selectively permeable, meaning it allows certain substances to pass through while blocking others. This is essential for controlling the movement of molecules in and out of the cell to maintain internal balance.
You cant see through opaque things, but you can see through transparent things.
Water acts as a lubricant, reducing friction between surfaces by creating a layer that allows them to slide past each other more easily. This is due to the low viscosity and high fluidity of water, which helps to smooth out imperfections on the surfaces in contact, making them slide with less resistance.
Rocky terrain, bumpy road surfaces, and cracked pavement are examples of things that are uneven or not smooth.
The difference between rough and smooth is the texture. Rough things have a bumpy, abrasive texture. Smooth things have are not rough.
