Does a dog swimming in the pool reduce the pool's chlorine level?
Any one or thing swimming in the pool will reduce the amount of free chlorine available in the swimming pool. Dog hair body fats and other impurity's will take up free chlorine in the pool thereby reducing the amount of effective chlorine available. Dogs bring into the pool more contaminants than do humans for AA lot of various reasons.
What covers a squirrels body?
hair
What covers a pudu body?
FUR!
What is the function of the peritoneum in a frog?
The peritoneum lines body cavities' inner walls. It covers and protects the hollow organs, which are more fragile than others.it is a thin layer that helps the frog's skin be protected
How does having a streamlined body help a fish?
To help them swim with less fluid resistence, thus with less energy loss, which is one important driving factor in evolution. Streamlined bodies usually cause less turbulance and so are more "aerodynamic" in water or in any other fluid, such as air.
How streamline body of fish helps in swimming?
The streamline shape of a fish has lower friction. Also, vortices form from the movement of the tail which save energy when swimming
How does the body cut down friction at joints?
There is a thick liquid produced in the joint spaces to cushion and reduce friction. This viscous fluid is called synovial fluid.
What features will your car have to reduce the forces of friction and drag?
A car will have aerodynamic features to reduce forces of friction and drag. A sleek body style will help do this.
How can you reduce the effect of friction on the motion of a body?
by applying water on the floor.
Why tips of aeroplanes made pointed?
To reduce friction. making the body streamlined makes the fluid friction less.
This is a part of the body that reduce friction and prevent bone ends from grinding?
cartilage
How do skiers reduce friction?
Friction between skis and snow may be reduced by waxing the skis. Air friction is reduced by tucking the body into a streamlined position.
What is an example of reducing friction is important in the moving parts of machinery?
friction is a force which opposes the direction of the movement of a certain body. reducing the friction between moving parts will lead to an increase of acceleration or speed of that particularly body.
When is friction in swimming good?
If you're in competitive swimming, friction will only slow you down, so the answer is no.However, without it, you'll simply fall like a rock to the bottom of the pool or ocean or wherever you're swimming. So if you're just swimming for survival, then it will be desirable.AnswerWhen an object is moving through a fluid, the term is "drag" not friction, and no drag is not desirable which is why swimmers remove all the hair on their bodies. Buoyancy keeps you from sinking not friction; friction is a reaction force.
Does water reduce friction?
Water does reduce friction, as the liquid essentially lubricates the surface between the two objects. However, this only applies to affecting other friction. It has its own friction when objects move through a body of water.
What is a Sac-like structures that reduce friction between moving body parts are called?
ligament
Why human body lubricates during intercourse. is it good or bad?
The human body must lubricate for intercourse to reduce the friction of genitalia.
