) Why a person should lie down flat on thin ice (2) Rear wheels of buses and trucks are usually double. Similarly tanks and bulldozer's are fitted with caterpillar tracks rather than wheels and huge buildings and dams have wide bases. On the other hand, there are many applications which r..

H increases with temperature, indicating that solubility of gases decreases with increase in temperature. Henry's Law explains many biological phenomena and also has several applications in industries, like: 1) To increase the solubility of CO 2 in soft drinks and soda water, the bot..

Study of photosynthesis and the factors affecting it helps us understand the most important biochemical life sustaining processes. All plants and animals are dependent on the sun for energy. This energy is made available to them by the process of photosynthesis. Man, like other animals, is depende..

Applications of Elasticity - Mechanical properties like strength, stiffness (Rigidity), ductility, malleability and brittleness have to be carefully studied to select a material for a particular job. The metallic parts of machines should not be subjected to stress beyond the elastic limit..

Atmospheric pressure is used in many of the things that we do. For example, when we drink water with a straw [figure (a) shown below], while sucking, our lungs expand and air in the drinking straw goes into them. The air pressure in the straw decreases and the atmospheric p..
