Scientists

Alfred Wegener, a German meteorologist and geophysicist, first proposed the theory of continental drift in 1912. He suggested that the continents were once part of a single supercontinent called Pangaea, which later broke apart and drifted to their current positions due to the movement of the Earth's mantle caused by thermal convection.

First, the main eruption was in June, not May.

There were a number of signs, starting with earthquakes and steam explosions indicating the volcano was becoming active. Gas measurements and later earthquakes clearly showed that magma was rising. The volcano's activity gradually escalated until its climactic eruption. When a lava dome appeared on the flanks, it was a sign that Pinatubo was about ready to blow.

Furthermore, by studying deposits in the surrounding area, scientists knew that Pinatubo was prone to very large eruptions and so represent a very great danger.

Not all matter is classified as either a substance or a compound. Matter can also exist in other forms, such as mixtures or elements. Substances are pure forms of matter that have a fixed composition, while compounds are made of two or more elements chemically combined in fixed ratios.

Both entertainers and scientists make valuable contributions to society in different ways. Entertainers bring joy and inspire creativity through their performances, while scientists provide knowledge and drive progress through their research and discoveries. It's ultimately subjective as to who is considered "great," as both play important roles in shaping our world.

A person who studies penises is called an andrologist.

In the spring of 1899, shortly after receiving an informal request from an office of the U.S. Government to develop a wireless communications system. Tesla moved his work to a high plateau near Colorado Springs. There he constructed a large experimental radio station unlike anything the world had ever seen before. His plan was to study the characteristics of high voltage, high frequency alternating electrical currents with the intellectual goal of ascertaining "the laws of propagation of currents through the earth and the atmosphere." That makeshift laboratory was located in Pike's Peak and it was demolished. It was not as big as the Tesla Tower in New York.

Nikola Tesla was an inventor and a mechanical and electrical engineer. In his life, he did not have a wife or girlfriend. He was not involved in homosexualty neither, He was a celibate all his life.

David Bowie played Nikola Tesla in the film "The Prestige". His brief appearance added an air of mystery and mystique to the character.

Tesla's nemesis is generally considered to be Thomas Edison. The two were rival inventors during the late 19th century, with Edison being a proponent of direct current (DC) electricity and Tesla advocating for alternating current (AC) electricity. Their competition led to the "War of Currents," with Tesla ultimately being the proponent of the more efficient AC system that is widely used today.

Louis Pasteur was born in Dole in the Jura region of France.

Observation is important in science because it allows for recordings during an experiment. It also is used as support for hypotheses.

Scientists use a variety of tools to study the universe, including telescopes (both on Earth and in space), satellites, and instruments that detect different forms of radiation such as radio waves, X-rays, and gamma rays. They also use computer simulations and mathematical models to analyze and interpret the vast amount of data collected from these observations.

Nicola Tesla died January 7 1943 at the age of 86. If he were alive today he would be 152 years old.

In laboratory tests, trace BPA exposure has been shown to disrupt the endocrine system and trigger a wide variety of disorders, including chromosomal and reproductive system abnormalities, impaired brain and neurological functions, cancer, cardiovascular system damage, adult-onset diabetes, early puberty, obesity and resistance to chemotherapy.

And it's in everyone, even newborn babies: Environmental Working Group's latest research found, for the first time, BPA in umbilical cord blood. Read the report, see the FAQ's and get tips on avoiding BPA exposure here: http://www.ewg.org/minoritycordblood

He died in his sleep for a heart failure at the New York hotel.

Bacteria are difficult to see when they are not stained because they are almost colorless.

1. Staining a slide enables a high contrast between the bacteria and the background.

2. It defines the bacterial morphology (size, shape and arrangement).

3. It enables us to observe structures like flagella, capsules and endospores.

Because there are no negative numbers

Many thermodynamic equations need absolute numbers. At 0 degrees Kelvin, molecules stop. It is absolute 0--it doesn't get colder. There is a direct correlation between Kelvin and Celsius. For Fahrenheit, the absolute scale is called Rankine.

YES!! Einstein was the most famous and one of the smartest people that existed He corrected Newtons theories of gravity Helped us understand how the universe worked Created the equation E=MC2 Made theory of relitivity

The Bohr model of the atom is a simple model that describes the structure of an atom. It suggests that electrons orbit the nucleus in specific energy levels or shells. Each shell can hold a specific number of electrons, and electrons can jump between shells by absorbing or emitting energy. The Bohr model helped explain the line spectra of different elements and laid the groundwork for understanding how electrons behave in atoms.

Cyclosporine was discovered by a team of researchers led by Hartmann F. Stähelin and Jean-François Borel in Switzerland in 1970. They were studying soil samples for potential antibiotic properties and identified cyclosporine as a compound produced by the fungus Tolypocladium inflatum.

A scientist that studies fungi is called a mycologist.
