    I What is Earth's future warming due to the Sun's increasing luminosity?

    Obviously, at some point, the Sun will be a red giant, and it's going to be very, very hot on Earth. I'd like to know what the expected rise in temperature would be due solely to the Sun, while holding the composition of the Earth's atmosphere constant - or at least constant except for the gas...

    Gas Law - increasing temperature with constant volume held

    I've set up a simple experiment to look at the ideal gas laws. My experiment is relatively simple in that I have a metal tube which is capped on one side. I am then pressurising the tube with air to 100 psi and locking it off. My thought is that as the pressure increased, with volume held...

    Medical Why some ways of increasing pulse increase BP and other ways decrease BP?

    I have high blood pressure. My physician told me that any exercise that increases my heart rate will decrease my blood pressure. When I get angry, my heart rate increases. If increasing one's heart rate by exercise will decrease my blood pressure, it seems logical for me to think that when...

    Increase Photocell Illumination: Effect on Current

    as intensity is power per unit area and as power is proportional to energy, then increasing intensity increases energy of the photons?no? So if energy increases so will the speed of the electrons more energy to the kinetic energy after work function? the answer is current

    Safety and the increasing automation of cars

    The recent 737 tragedies have shown us, I think, a few pointers about automation of planes. Of course, investigation is ongoing but my understanding is that the input from a faulty angle-of-attack sensor and an automated system which the pilots couldn’t switch off contributed. Two worries here...

    Increasing Torque with Gerotor Design: Lengthening, Diameter, and Series

    How do you increase torque in gerotor design other than increasing flow. Will lengthening it increase torque? Will increasing diameter increase torque? What about running 2 or 3 in series?

    Can you change the state of matter by increasing the speed?

    We all know that the state of matter can be changed by increasing temperature or by applying pressure. And, all of these, in some way lead to a change in the particles' speed. The speed of the particle decides the state of matter. So, if we were to throw an object at very high speeds, like 50%...

    Why laser output power decreases with increasing temperature

    Why laser output power decreases with increasing temperature? By increasing temperature, I mean increasing temperature of the active medium. I think that thermal lensing alone should not have effect on output power? Just different focusing (focal length). What happens with energy levels in...

    What will be the order of increasing radius?

    My answer is A. Because effective nuclear charge would increase in order Ar<K+<Ca2+ and radius would be inverse of that. However, the answer isn't that. Can you just point me? Also, can you tell me in this question, do we think of the noble gas and the Ca and K ions as single atomic species or...
