Why are old glass windows thicker at the bottom?
Old glass windows are thicker at the bottom because of the way they were made. During the manufacturing process, the glass was often unevenly distributed, causing it to flow and become thicker at the bottom over time.
Why does old glass get thicker at the bottom?
Old glass appears thicker at the bottom due to the manufacturing process used in the past. During that time, glass was often made by blowing it into a mold, causing the glass to be unevenly distributed and thicker at the bottom.
Is the Hoover Dam the same thickness at the top as the bottom?
no, its thicker at the bottom
Is the palm of your hand thicker than the bottom of your feet?
NOPE
Why are old glass windows thicker at the bottom?
Old glass windows are thicker at the bottom because of the way they were made. During manufacturing, the glass panes were often placed vertically, causing the glass to flow down slightly due to gravity. Over time, this slight deformation led to the thicker bottom edge that we see in old glass windows.
Explain why dams on deep lakes should be thicker at the bottom than near the top?
Water pressure increases with depth. So in a deep lake the bottom of the damn needs to be thicker to accommodate the greater water pressure.
Why are very old homes glass is often thicker at the bottom of windowpanes?
It is a myth that very old homes have windowpanes with thicker glass at the bottom. This misconception likely arose due to the way glass was made in the past, which resulted in uneven thickness rather than intentional design. Old glass windows may appear thicker at the bottom due to the effects of gravity over time.
Why is the base of a dam thinner then the wall?
The pressure against the dam wall increases at the lower levels than nearer the surface. So I expect the foot of the dam wall to be thicker at the bottom than at the top.
Why dams are built thicker at the bottom?
to hold the water better but at the top it's thinner to get water in
Are the thicker strings of an ukulele on top or bottom?
They are on the top. Thicker strings make lower sounds. The lowest notes are the top strings.
Why dams must be constructed so that they are much thicker at the bottom than the top?
Because the water pressure at the bottom of the dam is much more than the top.
Does a windowpane decay?
Glass remains liquid. The glass at the bottom of the window becomes thicker than at the top. It is not radioactive.
