Where can I find document scanning services in the United States that can handle large volume?

You can find document scanning services in the United States that can handle large volumes by searching for specialized companies offering bulk document scanning services. Look for companies with a track record of handling large-scale projects and providing high-quality scanning services. Some reputable options include Iron Mountain, DocuVault, and GoScan.


What factors may affect the magnetic needle?

Factors that may affect a magnetic needle include proximity to other magnetic objects, electrical currents nearby, changes in temperature, and structural/material composition of the needle itself. Environmental factors like electromagnetic interference and large metal objects can also influence the behavior of a magnetic needle.


Why does needle drown in water while ship does not?

Mass per surface area. A needle has a very small surface area thereby it can't displace its mass in water very well, while a ship has a very large surface area allowing it to push on a large volume of water to support its mass. A needle is like a sharp knife and a ship is like a very dull knife. By the way if you are very careful while placing you can get a needle to float on water.


Why does a solid needle placed horizontally on the surface of the water float?

The surface tension of water creates a layer that the needle rests on, despite being denser than water. The needle's weight is dispersed over a large enough area that it balances the upward force of surface tension. This allows the needle to remain afloat on the water's surface.


How can you magnetise a needle?

There are several ways. 1. Stroke the needle in one direction, with another magnet. 2. Place it in a coil of wire and pass a large (DC) current through the coil for a few seconds. (This is how they would do it commercially) 3. Align the needle with the magnetic north/south direction, now hit it several times. It will eventually take on the earths magnetic field as it's own.

Can you see an atom with a light microscope?

Cells yes, molecules for the most part no, atoms definitely not. A few extremely large molecules can be seen with light or electron microscopes (or even with the naked eye... technically, a flawless diamond is one large molecule), but normally something called a scanning tunneling microscope is used to image molecules and atoms.
