How does the pollution generated by cargo ships compare to that of cars?

Cargo ships generate more pollution than cars on a per-ship basis, but there are fewer cargo ships than cars, so overall cars contribute more to pollution.


How did the action potential generated with the unheated rod compare to the generated with the heated rod?

Heat information is conducted through neurones. Higher frequency action potentials are perceived in the brain as a hotter stimulus. So the heated rod would have sent higher-frequency action potentials than the cool rod would have.


How do you design a simple experiment to find out what happens to the volume of water when it freezes?

To design a simple experiment to observe what happens to the volume of water when it freezes, first, fill a measuring container with a known volume of water and mark the initial level. Next, place the container in the freezer until the water completely freezes. After the water has frozen, measure the new level of the ice in the container. Finally, compare the two measurements to determine if the volume of water increased, decreased, or remained the same upon freezing.


How can you compare the flow rates of liquids?

You can compare the flow rates of liquids by measuring the volume of liquid that passes through a specific point in a given amount of time. This can be done using a graduated cylinder, flow meter, or by measuring the time it takes to fill a container of known volume. Comparing these measurements will allow you to determine which liquid has a faster flow rate.


Why does the direction of polarization of light compare with the direction of vibration of the electrons that produced it?

The direction of polarization of light is related to the direction of vibration of the electrons that produced it because the oscillation of the electrons creates an oscillating electric field perpendicular to the direction of propagation of light. This electric field determines the orientation of the light wave's vibration, resulting in its polarization direction.

What causes air pollution the most?

All pollution is not the same - sheer tonnage can be balanced against impact (dust vs. hydrogen sulfide) and make comparison of pollution sources, importance and impact difficult or impossible to compare.

How many metric ton have 20 feet container?

Feet is an unit of volume and metric ton is an unit of mass, you can't compare them directly. We should know a density of items in this container to calculate their mass.
