Chemical Reaction Test Tube
682 words
Background An example of a gas would be hydrogen.
A chemical property is how a substance changes its
identity. An example of this would be being able
to support flammability. A physical property
distinguishes one type of matter from another and
can be observed without changing its identity. An
example of this is somethings boiling point
because when you change a liquid to a gas it does
not change its identity only its form. A chemical
change is when something changes identity and
example of this...

that chemicals can do some horrible things to
humans, animals and the whole ecosystem. Some
would say that chemicals should be done away with
for these reasons. But this certainly is not true
and most likely impossible. Chemicals can also
have some very ...

Sharks And Rays Electric Fields Signal
257 words
Nearly forty years ago, I observed sharks and rays
respond to weak electric fields. The biological
significance of this finding became evident when
shortly thereafter I discovered the common bio
electric fields in the vicinity of aquatic
animals. The electric sense became an established
fact when I proved that sharks and rays cue in on
the electric fields of prey, even during the dark
or when the prey is hiding in the sand. Field
strengths as low as 1 - 2 nV/cm suffice to alert
them as to the pr...

Collection Of Home Recordings Collection Of Home Barlow

Arguably the most productive songwriter of his
generation, Lou Barlow is also the one of the most
influential; thanks to his low-fidelity legacy,
any geek with a guitar, a four-track machine and
an unrequited crush on a girl could become an
underground pop star. Although born in Dayton,
Ohio on July 17, 1966, Barlow was raised primarily
in Amherst, Massachusetts, where during high
school he joined forces with fellow introverted
outsider J Mascis in the hardcore band Deep Wound.

Circle And The Ring Black Background Mind
519 words
Meditation is a very powerful tool used by many to
strengthen the mind. Just like how we exercise our
body to be fit and controlled, we can also give
our brains a workout by performing various
exercises. Professor Walsh has demonstrated a
couple of exercises to explain how meditation is
used. One exercise requires you to picture a white
ring containing a white circle inside with a black
background. This work out seems easy at first, but
when performing the task, it proved much more
difficult. In...

Radio Waves Radio Frequency
584 words
Radio waves travel at 186, 000 miles per second
through air. In contrast, sound waves travel at
only 1 / 5 of a mile per second. If a modulation
is made of the radio wave that exactly reproduces
the amplitude and frequency characteristics of the
original sound wave, then sound can be transmitted
rapidly over long distances. This leads to a very
interesting phenomena. During a live broadcast in
New York, the music will reach listeners in
California a fraction of a second before it can be
heard by...
