A sharp piece of glass is typically called a shard. Sharper and more pointed pieces may also be referred to as splinters or fragments.

Smothered in rich, golden light, the ranunculushas long been revered for its assumed alchemical properties. These beautiful flowers are still enjoyed for their ability to communicate a beauty as stunning and welcoming as a gilded statue at the entrance of an ancient city. Show someone how amazed you are by their inner and outer beauty with these gorgeous flowers.

The higher you go in the atmosphere, the thinner the air gets. When the balloons get high enough so that there is more pressure inside them than there is outside, they burst. The plastic bits then fall back down and land somewhere on Earth.

Einsteinium is used only in highly specialized laboratories for research. It is an element that is found in the debris from hydrogen bombs. But, there are very few actual uses for einsteinium besides scientific research. One isotope is used in the calibration process of the chemical analysis spectrometer in a lunar probe.

It is not found in nature but is produced by artificial of lighter elements. All isotopes of einsteinium are radioactive, decaying with half-lives ranging from a few seconds to about 1 year. Einsteinium is the heaviest element to be isolated in weigh-able form. The metal is chemically reactive, is quite and melts at 860°C (1580°F); one crystal structure is known.

600 seconds is a total of 10 minutes.

Aluminum is an element, therefore it consists entirely of aluminum - and does not include any other elements. An aluminum alloy is a mixture of aluminum and other compounds.

A medium-sized dog or a large punching bag typically weighs around 60 pounds.

If two masses fall 3 meters to the ground without any friction, they will both reach the ground at the same time, assuming they are released simultaneously. This is because the acceleration due to gravity is the same for both masses, and friction does not affect their free fall motion.

The amount of weight steel can hold depends on various factors such as the type of steel, its thickness, and the specific design of the structure. Generally, steel is known for its high strength-to-weight ratio and can support heavy loads ranging from hundreds to thousands of pounds per square inch. To determine the exact weight steel can hold, engineers perform calculations based on these factors.

The speed of a pull up can be calculated by dividing the distance traveled by the time it takes to complete the movement. For example, if you perform a pull up from a dead hang position to your chin touching the bar (let's say a 1-meter distance) in 2 seconds, the speed would be 0.5 meters per second.

accelerated stability is used to asses the shelf life of a product, but the conditions of storage are more harsh (i.e. higher temperature and increased humidity). this is done to provide an estimated shelf life of the product in a shorter time period than 'real time' stability. for example, a 6 month accelerated stability trial will give you data to support a 12 month shelf life.

It makes it easy to tell whether or not it's clean. Siver is known for the reducing the heat loss. it is the bad conductor of heat. nor silver absorb heat neither allow it to emit form the thermos. Because of this, the fluid in the thermos remains hot or cold.

A phalanx is a formation used in battle. Soldiers line up shoulder to shoulder with their shields overlapping each other. This is to protect the soldier to their left. The right flank is the most vulnerable place in a phalanx and is where the most expierienced soldiers were put. Spears were used in this formation. With huge shields protecting them and spears protruding it was a dangerous formation to charge. It was used often by the Greeks who put it to well use.

Essentially, its purpose was to crush the enemy by momentum and 'pushing power' as well impale them on the spears. From the front, it was almost impossible to resist except with another phalanx. However, if it was flanked or the formation was broken it was extremely vulnerable.

Sugars that can be oxidized by mild oxidizing agents are called reducing sugars (the oxidizing agent is reduced in the process)

A non-reducing sugar is not oxidized by mild oxidizing agents (no reaction)

Example of oxidising agent is Tollen's Reagent

Simply put, reducing sugar will react with Tollen's Reagent while non-reducing sugar will not react with the mild oxidizing agent

Chiffon is a lightweight, sheer fabric traditionally made from silk. It can also be produced from synthetic fibers such as polyester or nylon. The fabric's name is derived from the French word for a cloth rag, indicating its delicate and translucent nature.

The focal length of a convex lens does not change based on the color of light being used. The focal length depends on the shape and refractive index of the lens, not the color of light passing through it.

If you remove the drawer and put it outside to AIR out this will reduce the strong odor but will not remove it completely. Only time will get the smell out besides other chemicals that could damage the wood like bleach.

it depends on the size and quality of the paper. the quality is usually measured in kg/m2 so just find that and calculate the weight for the size you need

The explosive you're referring to is likely red phosphorus mixed with potassium chlorate. This mixture is known as Armstrong's mixture and has been used in fireworks and military applications due to its explosive properties. However, it is highly unstable and can be dangerous to handle.

Fluorine is commonly used in toothpaste and water fluoridation to help prevent tooth decay. It is also used in the production of Teflon for non-stick coatings in cookware and in the manufacture of a variety of industrial chemicals and pharmaceuticals.

Strictly speaking, one should use grams to measure the mass of a feather not the weight. Mass is measured in kilograms (or grams), whereas weight depends upon the amount that the force of gravity pulls on an object, and, in physics, is strictly measured in newtons, nor grams or kilograms.

When you breath in oxygen, that oxygen undergoes a process called cellular respiration in order to provide energy for your cells. I won't go into detail with the entire process, but basically a sugar (C6H12O6) combined with oxygen (6O2) to create carbon dioxide (6CO2) and water (6H2O). Since the carbon dioxide is a waste product, we release it when we exhale. If you're wondering what happens to it, plants use it to undergo a process called photosynthesis, which is basically the oppisite of cellular respiration; needing carbon dioxide and water while producing a sugar and oxygen, and they then give the oxygen off as a wast product. That's all hope this helped!

The back-and-forth movement of a piston in an engine is an example of reciprocating motion. As the piston moves up and down within the cylinder, it creates the necessary pressure to drive the engine. This reciprocating motion is crucial in converting the energy from fuel combustion into mechanical work.
