Seismic wave that causes the ground to move in two directions?
secondary waves or otherwise known as s-waves
How many watts does a lemon produce?
Around .0007 Watts.
Watts=Amps x Volts
0.0007W=0.001A(1mA) x 0.7V
What is the source of light in firefly?
Firefly gets it's light by what is called as bioluminescence. In this phenomena, you get the light generated by animal, plant or some types of microorganisms. Here you get the light generated without production of the heat. In case of firefly you get the light intermittently. So that the the partner should be spotted, when light is on and the risk of being caught by the predator is reduced, when the light is off.
The group of experimental subjects which is left natural or left unchanged is called the?
experimental group
Whats the smallest unit of a substance that behaves like a substance?
A molecule of the substance.
An atom of an element may exhibit different characteristics when it is bound to other atoms of the same element.
Examples are common oxygen (O2) and ozone (O3) with altered chemical properties.
Or carbon as graphite (hexagonal lattice) and diamond (tetrahedral lattice), which demonstrate very different physical properties.
Where can you find the IV and DV on a graph?
the iv is what you change and the dv depends on what changes.
the iv is usually on the bottom of a graph and the dv is usually at the side, but depending on the graph, the order could be vise versa.
What is a catchy creative science fair title on crystals?
Make a title that reflects your actual project. Also you have to keep in mned type of audience that's going to attend the fair and you can make adjusments in your title accordingly. If there are more kids in the fair you probably want to keep a title that will attract kids, make it more colorful and sometimes you can also do some skething along with it.
A measure of how fast the particles in an object are moving?
Temperature is the measure of how fast particles are moving in an object.
A carbon atom is made up of six neutrons and six electrons.
Could scientist experiment on humans?
It can go both ways. Many people have been helped due to advances in genetic knowledge, which has allowed us to further our treatment for many medical conditions.
Billions of people's lives have been saved or helped due to vaccinations, which have pretty much wiped out diseases like polio and mmr. Without advances in genetic knowledge, developing and improving these medicines would be impossible.
However, there are risks to genetic experimentation. Since it's not perfect, there are possible side-affects and things that could go wrong, which is why medicines are extensively tested before available to the public.
There is also controversy in stem cell research. Many believe that this is morally wrong for the baby, but so far scientists have found no major side-affects or harm to the baby from this type of research.
What is Ivan Pavlov's experiment named?
What happens if you microwave a diamond in a household microwave?
If you are looking for anything that you'd be able to sell as "diamonds" similar to a jewelry store, no, you can't.
How far will your car travel if you drive it for 60 minutes at a speed of 90 kilometers per hour?
For every hour, you'll travel 90km. So, if you divide the total distance of 4840 km by the speed of 90 km per hour, you get about 53.78 hours.
To look at it a little more thoroughly, look at the measurements. km per hour is the same as distance (km) divided by time (hour). So we know 2 of three variables in the equation. 4840 / h = 90. To solve we can do the following:
4840 = 90 x h
4840 / 90 = h
53.78 = h
What was JJ Thompson's experiment about?
Thompson's model described that every atom had an electron and he tried to incorporate the electron into the model of the atom... He prooved the Greeks wrong because they initially thought that the atom was solid.(This also prooved Dalton to be incorrect also)
All in all JJ Thompson discovered the electron!
A great place to go for over 300 science projects, many of which are perfect for sixth grade students can be found at http://www.terimore.com. These projects are all available immediately on line and cover virtually every science subject. All the information you need to finish a project is contained here.
Why do disaccharides and polysaccharides give positive Molisch Test?
simply because they are carbohydrates, all carbohydrates produces positive result in molisch's test
All carbohydrates i.e. monosacchardes, dissacharides and polysaccharides are dehydrated (lose water) by a dehydrating agent (e.g. Sulphuric acid) they form aldehydes known as furfurral. The furfurral reacts with a component known as 1- naphthol present in Molisch reagent resulting in a reddish violet colour forming between the Reagent and the previous mixture of the carbohydrate and thedehydrating agent. It is important to note that the reaction is more rapid with simple sugars or monosaccharides
What do you call the results of an experiment?
Observations and measurements made during an experiment are called the data.
What way can a scientists could really change copper into gold?
You can't. An element is the simplest form that anything can be broken down into.
What are the functions of the jelly liquid like fluid of the liquid found inside the eye?
it helps keep your eyes shape
What is the best kind of plant research for a science fair project?
Beans are the fastest and easiest to grow for any plant experiment.
If you want the best plant to do science experiments consider growing the
TickleMe Plant. The TickleMe Plant will suddenly close its leaves and act as if it were being Tickled when you Tickle It! The fern like leaves close and the branches droop when Tickled. The leaves re-open in minutes.
It also sleeps at night.

The instrument from which speed of airplane is measured?
The crew refers to that instrument as the "altimeter". It may indicate your actual,
physical distance above the ground.
Or it may indicate your altitude above sea-level, which can be somewhat risky ...
that type of altimeter may read 5,000 feet, which is fine unless you're flying in fog
and there's a 5,010-foot mountain ahead.
If you are trying to measure how fast an ice cube melts with or without salt added, your Independent variable would be amount of salt added, and your Dependent variable would be the amount of time it takes to melt.
What are constants in an experiment?
Constants are the things that are kept the same each time one of the trials in the experiment is repeated. For example, constants could include the amount of water used, the brand of effervescent tablet used, the type of water used, and the fact that the water was not stirred. As many outside factors as possible should be kept constant in an experiment so that the researcher can be sure that any changes that occur do so because of the independent variable.
What can fault and folds become?
Folding and faulting are both caused by stress in the Earth's crust exceeding the strength of the material. However folding tends to occur at small strain rates (the speed at which the material changes shape or is squashed is very small), at higher confining pressures and with higher temperatures at greater depths in the earth (typically the asthenosphere and mesosphere) all of which act to stop the formation of fractures within the material leading to ductile deformation which is why the rocks can fold rather than break.
Faulting occurs where strain rates are large and there are relatively low temperatures and confining pressures at shallower depths within the earth's lithosphere. These conditions allow fractures to propagate through the rock causing faulting.
