An earthquake happens along a fault where two plates rub together while moving in different directions. Theearth shakes and shivers and vibrates like a rubber band that's been snapped. Those vibrations are picked up by an instrument which enables experts to figure out where the earthquake occurs...
Volcanoes are often (but not always) closely related to continental plate movements. Deep under the surface of our planet, hugetectonic platesare slowly moving and jostling against each other. At the boundaries between plates, where two or more come together, magma creeps up to the surface. The...

What happens to the size of a hole in a metal plate when the plate is heated/cooled? What happens to turn a protostar into a star? What happens when earth's magnetic field flips? What happens to the brightness of a light bulb when the current flowing through it increases? ...
When you insert a sheet of wood ( = 2.00) between the plates of a capacitor, the capacitance becomes 25.0 nF. What capacitance will it have if you insert a block of glass ( = 6.00) instead? What happens when pin 2 is grounded in the 4-bit ripple count...
Bonnard’s particular view must have involved serious personal reflection. To me his work is a soulful meditation on the everyday. It shows an awareness of the notion that “life happens when you’re making other plans.” Bonnard may have been the first “process painter”. Process painting ...
Our goal was to reverse the model and assess what happens to bacterial cells when they enter a foreign environment including co-culture with eukaryotic cells, complete cell culture medium, inflammatory factors, and oxygen presence. For this purpose, we selected two strains, Bifidobacterium ...
Weaves direction: there are weaves in carbon fibre sheet, and the cutting direction actually makes a different to the strength. The carbon fibre plates are stronger when cut along the weaves and weaker when it’s cut at 45-degrees to the weaves. ...
When you turn the key to start the car, the ignition switch, which is installed behind the ignition lock, gets turned. Inside the ignition switch are many tiny metal plates that can build up rust over time. When this happens, one of these plates may lose connection, and the whole ignitio...
