The Difference Between

Physio- physical, relating to the body or matter

logical- -logy, "the study of" =and= -ical, "being a science of" =meaning= "for a reason"

adaptation- a change

Physiological adaptation- A change in the body for a specific purpose or reason, esp. in an organism.

A fact is a statement that can be proven true or false based on evidence. A theory is a well-substantiated explanation of some aspect of the natural world that is supported by evidence, experimentation, and observations. The main difference is that a fact is a confirmed truth, while a theory is a broader explanation that ties together multiple facts.

Extensive properties rely on the amount of substance involved. Mass is and extensive property. For example, if I had 5 grams of Iron then someone gave me more iron, the mass would no longer be 5 grams.

Intensive properties rely solely on the type of material involved. Iron is affected by magnets. If I had 5 grams of Iron then someone gave me more iron, it would still be affected by magnets.

Bacteria have easier access to nutrients in a liquid medium compared to a solid medium. In a liquid medium, nutrients are more readily available for bacteria to uptake and grow rapidly. In contrast, a solid medium may limit nutrient availability due to the physical barrier of the solid structure.

Gravel only refers to the size of a rock, which has a range of about 2mm-65mm on its largest side. A gravel driveway, for example, could be made from either homogeneous gravel (all from the same rock type) or it could be a mixture of rock types(heterogeneous).

Kerosene is a homogeneous mixture of hydrocarbons.

A missile is anything thrown or projected.

A rocket uses rocket propulsion - throwing out hot gasses in order to move in the opposite direction.

In practice most rockets can be considered to be missiles and most missiles are rockets.

in the military a rocket is unguided en a missile is guided, think about GPS or a wire that is in the back of the missile an attached to the launcher an can steered to the target.

Multivalent refers to the ability of an atom to form multiple chemical bonds with other atoms. It can also refer to a molecule or ion that can donate or accept multiple electrons in a chemical reaction. In the context of vaccines, multivalent vaccines contain antigens from multiple strains or types of a pathogen to provide protection against various strains.

Precipitation is when the solid water in the clouds turns into liquid. Precipitation can come in rain, snow, sleet, or hail. If the temperature near the ground is cold, snow, sleet, and hail all occur.

LSCD (LICENSE STATUS CONFIRMATION DOCUMENT). Philips has the patent for the laser disc reader for a DVD. So all the dvd's, doen't matter the brand, have to pay a fee to Philips for this matter. It is around $ 2.80 per piece.

Ang isang tangway o tangos (Ingles: peninsula, cape, promontory) ay isang lupa na napapaligiran ng tubig sa tatlong sulok. Maaaring maging tangway ang mga punong lupain (headland), tangos (cape), pulong promontoryo, lupaing palabas ng dagat, punto o spit.

=the coriolis effect diverts the cold air direction and turns it into the right towards the Philippines from the northeast direction.the cold moving air that passes over the Philippines is called northeast monsoon.=

A triple beam balance measures mass by comparing the unknown mass to a set of standard masses on three beams with riders. A spring scale measures weight by the amount of stretch in a spring when an object is hung from it. Triple beam balances are more accurate for measuring mass, while spring scales are better for measuring weight.

Agar-agar is a vegetarian alternative to gelatin. It is a jelly that results from boiling several different types of seaweed together. It is dried and sold in powder, flakes or bars and is used as a thickener and or stabiliser.

Pascal means the pressure = force divided by area. Decibels means a logarithmic unit of measurement that expresses the magnitude of a physical quantity relative to a specified or implied reference level. Since it is a ratio of two quantities with the same unit, it is a dimensionless unit. The difference is like between a car and a banana.

To pump down an R410A system, you first need to close the discharge service valve and then continue operating the system until the low-pressure switch cuts off the compressor. This will ensure that the majority of the refrigerant is pumped down into the condenser. Make sure the system is depressurized before working on it further.

I am also trying to find out the same information. While I can not find any scientifically based research - all the "answers" Ive found indicate between 2:1 & 6:1, and most likely 4:1.

Alternate Answer:

Refer to the Pilling-Bedworth ratio (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pilling-Bedworth_ratio). It provides a theortetical volume ratio between the metal oxide and the elementary cell of the corresponding base metal. For iron, the ratio is roughly 2:1 (oxide to metal), but varies according to the chemical nature of the oxide, available oxygen, etc.

It is important to note that this is a theoretical ratio comparing relative volume and may not directly correspond with the ratio of measured thickness in actual practice because of the way the oxide (rust) product forms and layers resulting in varying density. Often, the physical thickness of the rust scale on carbon steel is reported to significantly exceed twice the loss in thickness of metal section. Many professionals in the corrosion industry cite an observed ratio of for carbon steel that is 4-10 times that of metal section thickness loss, particularly on heavy rust scaling in a chloride-laden marine environment. However, I am not aware of any published research or testing that supports this commonly accepted assertion.

This variance in ratios between the relative volume and thickness are possibly the result of voids within the formation of thick rust scale films. In my experience, we have observed rust scaling on carbon steel in a marine environment that is typically 3-4 times the thickness of the corresponding section loss in the base metal.

In summary, the answers could be different depending on whether the question concerns thickness of the corrosion product compared to metal section loss, or the relative volume between base metal lost and oxide formed. There is published data tha supports a 2:1 change in volume for iron. But, in terms of physical thickness of the measured rust scale compared to metal section loss, it appears the ratio could be greater.

Rest refers to an object staying still or not changing position relative to its surroundings, while motion refers to an object changing position relative to its surroundings over time. Rest is a state of no movement, while motion involves movement or change in position.

Pitch refers to the highness or lowness of a sound, while rhythm refers to the pattern of sounds and silences within a piece of music. Pitch determines the frequency of a sound wave, while rhythm determines the arrangement of beats and accents within a musical composition.

Crystalline silica is a basic component of soil, sand, granite, and many other minerals. Quartz is the most common form of crystalline silica. Cristobalite and tridymite are two other forms of crystalline silica. All three forms may become respirable size particles when workers chip, cut, drill, or grind objects that contain crystalline silica.

Maximum velocity is the fastest an intem can go, while optimum velocity is the "best" speed it can travel on. For a car optimum velocity could mean either where you get the best MPG, or where you can go round corners/over bumps without the car starting swaying, or something like that.

Capillarity is a result of surface tension.

Surface tension causes liquid surfaces to be concave or convex. Due to this, there is greater pressure on the concave side of the liquid meniscus. To make the pressures at the same height equal, the liquid in the capillary rises or falls.

A voltaic cell is an electrochemical cell that generates electrical energy through a spontaneous redox reaction. It consists of two half-cells connected by a conductor, where oxidation occurs at one electrode (anode) and reduction at the other electrode (cathode), producing an electric current.
