What are the three things you can do to get a substance to dissolve quicker?
Heating causes an increase in speed of dissolving as does stirring faster. In addition, crushing to a fine powder (smaller particle size) increases the surface area to volume ration and helps the substance to dissolve faster.
How do you cause salt to dissolve at different rates in water?
Heating will usually make a substance dissolve faster. Stirring makes things dissolve faster. Grind the substance into smaller 'bits'. Smaller particles have more surface are exposed to the water (solvent) so that it can dissolve faster.
What is the difference between nuclear fision and nuclear fusion?
fission is breaking big things up into smaller ones. fusion is joining little things together into bigger ones.
Why do small pieces of food cook faster than large pieces of the same food?
This is to do with surface area. With the same amount of food cut into smaller pieces, the water is in contact with a greater amount of the food. This means two things:- 1) more of the food is being cooked at one time 2) because all the pieces are smaller it will take less time to cook the pieces properly because they are smaller.
what is the difference between the high and low numbers?
A high number is a bigger number than a low number. So as you're counting, the number is getting higher the more things that you count.
Are bigger thing always heavier than smaller things?
No
Why do things move faster when they are closer to the surface of things?
They don't, they just appear to...an optical illusion.

What concaave lenses and convex lenses make things look smaller?
Convex lens makes things look bigger and concave lens makes things look smaller!
Why do larger animals keep their body heat better than smaller animals?
This is because of the surface to volume ratio. A small mammal has a larger surface area, as compared to its volume, than a large mammal does, so a small mammal's surface area to volume ratio is bigger. A large surface to volume ratio causes things to pass into the organism and out of the organism more easily, so a mammal with a large surface to volume ratio (a small mammal) will lose heat more easily in a cold environment than a mammal with a small surface to volume ratio (a large mammal).
What is a fill handle?
it is a square that you press and it makes things bigger and smaller as you move the mouse.
Can make-up make things look bigger or smaller?

List three different techniques artists have used to convey the illusion of deep space on a two-dimensional surface?
They have used color. They also use a lot of shading. One effective method is to make things closer bigger and things farther away smaller.
