    Length contraction of a square

    How is it that "the case of motion along diagonal AC, both sides are contracted" ? Isn't it one side being contracted, the one parallel to motion? I'm having trouble picturing this.

    Length contraction of a square

    If you have a drawing of a square (labeled ABCD starting at lower left and going clockwise) and it is first at rest in an inertial frame. When this square moves, length contraction changes its shape. In each of the following three situations the speed is the same, and the velocity is in the...

    Why is HF Not a Lewis Base and MgBr2 a Lewis Acid?

    well to start with, since F has three lone pairs, it would seem to be a good explanation, except that it is so electronegative that most of the time, electron of hydrogen are with F instead, giving it a dipole moment. A Lewis acid is when it can accept electrons or donate protons, in this case...

    Neurons, Axons & Athletic Injury: Overcoming Problems & Repair Process

    What problems does a neuron need to overcome to maintain the health and growth of the axon? I thought it has a problem with axon's length? Another question is: How would you estimate the muscle mass of a person? I know that muscle does not float, but adipose tissue does. Would I just...

    Calculate the change in energy of the hydrogen atom

    E = (-2.18 x 10^-18 J) (1/1 -1/16) = - 2.04378 x 10^-18 J The answer is negative because the atome loses evergy.

    [chem]Lewis Structure-Expanded Valence Shell

    it's better that it fills its octet before making the charges be zero on a central atom. that's why there is resinance structures.

    Sordaria: Exploring Genetics in a Haploid Organism

    I think the simplest hypothesis to work on is that there is greater number of crossing over when there is a bigger map distance. but this has already been tested, and i don't know if I can use it but just in my words...

    Sordaria: Exploring Genetics in a Haploid Organism

    Thanks for the idea Ouabache. I also found out that Sordaria has 7 chromosomes, but I don't know if that is useful here. Please tell me if this hypothesis is ok: Hypothesis: The color of the spores of Sordaria are different because it is polygenetic. It is due to many genes. If this is...
