Someone dieing from a bullet being shot into the air is uncommon but is has happened before. What happens it it fly up for a few miles and since it's usually not straight up it doesn't land where you shoot it from. Once the bullet is close to the ground after being shot up it is usually going faster than is was when it was first shot.

Examples of items that weigh around 4.6 pounds include a gallon of milk, a standard laptop, or a small bag of flour.

Pollen is an important adaptation for plants in the terrestrial environment because it allows for efficient reproduction without the need for water. This enables plants to disperse their genetic material over greater distances and increase genetic diversity. Pollen also protects the male gametes from desiccation and other environmental stressors.

The smallest unit of metric length is the millimeter. It is equivalent to one-thousandth of a meter.

Not necessarily. The rate of temperature change of water depends on the surrounding environment (like room temperature) and the material of the cup. However, a larger volume of water typically takes longer to heat up or cool down compared to a smaller volume of water, so it may stay colder longer in that sense.

The clapper of a bell is typically made of metal, such as brass or bronze, to produce a clear and resonant sound when striking the bell. These materials are durable and can withstand repeated use without wearing down quickly.

Sunscreen is generally either primarily water or alcohol, sometimes found under inactive ingredients. If it's water you're probably fine but if alcohol it's potentially flammable considering primarily could mean over 50% alcohol.

Although alcohol doesn't necessarily mean it's flammable, could have a flame-retardant ingredient and the same goes for water but if it's mostly water it is hard to imagine a flammable mixture being purposefully made and tested.

Wool retains more heat compared to cotton. Wool fibers are naturally insulating and have the ability to trap heat close to the body, making it a warmer fabric choice for cold weather. Additionally, wool can also absorb moisture without losing its insulating properties.

If spray starch sticks to your iron it could simply be that you haven't shaken the can sufficiently.

Otherwise, it's probably that the bottom of your iron needs cleaning: wipe it over with a clean, damp cloth while the iron is cold, checking for any sticky parts. Then you can go over it while the iron is warm.

Don't use any abrasive cleaning pads (even plastic) or abrasive cleaners (liquid or powder).

It could possibly be that the iron has been cleaned incorrectly and the base is damaged - it could be pitted from abrasive cleaners, though you mightn't be able to see this you'll still feel it when you run your fingers over it. If this has happened, you'll need to buy a new iron. Get the cheapest: there isn't much difference, an iron is an iron, no matter what they say it does.

You can buy iron-cleaning preparations from the supermarked; check these out, one might help.

Once your iron is working normally, or you have a new iron, follow the use and care instructions very, very carefully. Don't use tap water in the iron.

Most ships use diesel as their source of energy to run the engines. Some military ships and submarines have nuclear plants as engines. Alternative sources of energy include the wind (sails) and sun (solar panels).

This might refer to the dirty ring left around a bathtub when someone soaks in a bathtub with soapy bubbles then empties the water. The dirty soap clings to the the sides of the bathtub leaving a ring mark of residue where the high water level was.

If an object is less dense than water, or if it floats on water, it displaces the same weight of water equal to the weight of the object. If the object sinks in water, it displaces a volume of water equal to the volume of the object. This is known as the Archimedes principle

To answer this question you must first think of how gas is distributed. When an earthquake occurs, it shifts the Earth from it's original stationary location to some other position. Gas is distributed through a complex pipe system that's located underground. As a result, when the Earth's tectonic plates move as a result of the earthquake, what often happens is that the elaborate pipe system to distribute natural gas is disturbed in multiple places.

Then to explain further, you have to think about how difficult it is to repair broken lines that are located five to ten feet underground in the midst of all the chaos that may be occurring above ground. As a result, it will take a while to get to all of the leaks and repair them all before it is safe to turn on the pipeline again and get gas flowing.

Yes, burning something can make it lighter in weight because the process can release gases and other substances, reducing the overall mass of the material.

It is kinetic energy, pertaining to motion. It is compressed energy, the spring in the stick is in Compression, this energy will be released when the weight on the stick is removed.

This phenomenon is often called the "psychological effect" or "debug effect." It suggests that sometimes simply talking through a problem or seeking help can lead to a fresh perspective or idea that helps solve the issue. It may also be attributed to chance or coincidence.

Surviving being exposed to molten gold being poured on a person is highly unlikely due to the extreme heat of molten gold. The intense heat would cause immediate and severe burns to the skin and underlying tissues, leading to shock, organ failure, and death. Prompt emergency medical treatment is essential in such a situation.

An ordinary voltmeter,when connected in a circuit to measure the potential difference,it brings about a redistribution of currents and lowers the potential difference .The change can be insignificant or appreciable for the resistance across which it is connected.This effect is known as SHUNTING EFFECT.

A food fight is when people are going to throw food. So, all You have to do is Scream "FOOD FIGHT!!!" wherever you are but it has to be a place with LOTS of food. To Make it more fun, do it with alot of people so you can make an even bigger mess! But just make sure no one catches you scream food fight because you could get expelled.

The best time to do it is when it's the last day of school or if at your house, the food should taste bad.

The mistake everyone makes is throwing perfectly good food. Throw food that looks terrible and smells bad!

Magnitude is a scalar quantity because it doesn't have a direction. The magnitude of a vector is scalar because it is just the value, not taking direction into account

Vector: With direction

Scalar: Without direction

When tape gets cold, the adhesive hardens and becomes less malleable, reducing its ability to stick to surfaces effectively. Additionally, colder temperatures can also weaken the chemical bonds in the adhesive, making it less sticky.

One way to tell if something is gold plated is to look for signs of wearing or chipping to reveal a different metal underneath. Another method is to use a magnet; since gold is not magnetic, if the item is attracted to the magnet, it is likely not solid gold. Conducting an acid test with a testing kit can also help determine if something is gold plated.

The waves generated in steps 1-5 were transverse waves. Transverse waves have oscillations perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation, which is the case in steps 1-5 where the medium (string or slinky) oscillates up and down while the wave travels horizontally.

Assuming you mean a clothes dryer - apparently nothing. While visiting Australia, I noticed that many people hang them from the ceiling above their washing machines - sort of a make-shift stackable. Apparently they run just fine.
