If Hexagons are the Most Efficient Way to Store Something in Two Dimensions, What is the Best For Three? |
- If Hexagons are the Most Efficient Way to Store Something in Two Dimensions, What is the Best For Three?
- How do mineral deposits like veins of ore form? Why don't elements mix homogeneously in the Earth's Mantle?
- How does the LIGO observatory compensate for all of the environmental factors i.e. storms, strong winds, human movement around the facility etc. ?
- How large can a cubic-single-room-style structure be, like NASA's vehicle assembly building?
- Do we find new rocks, minerals, crystals formed from recent volcanic eruptions? Why or why not?
- Can someone help me explain the science behind the boiling point of a liquid decreasing as the pressure does?
- How accurate is counting seconds between seeing lightning and hearing thunder?
- Why do dogs tilt their heads upwards as they howl?
- Does a baseball really travel farther in humid weather?
- What's the fastest speed sound can go?
- Why is Ecuador being consistently hit with earthquakes ever since the 7.8 earthquake on April 16?
- Efficiently calculating the volume and surface of complicated objects?
- How is gravitational potential energy calculated for heights at which the object's distance is such that the diminished effects of gravity aren't negligible?
- If Earth was split into two and the halves moved 100m apart, would they fall onto one another?
- Why can I use a propane stove indoors, but not a propane grill?
- How would a geochemist test the heavy metal levels of an area/substance in the late 1970s?

| Do we find new rocks, minerals, crystals formed from recent volcanic eruptions? Why or why not? Posted: 22 Jul 2016 12:44 AM PDT I always wondered why I only see obsidian like rocks, lava rocks etc near recent eruptions like in Hawaii. But why don't we find, gold, diamonds, granite, crystals etc, from cooled magma in recent eruptions? [link] [comments]  |

| How accurate is counting seconds between seeing lightning and hearing thunder? Posted: 21 Jul 2016 01:02 PM PDT How accurate is counting seconds between seeing lightning and hearing thunder during a thunder storm to gauge the distance of the storm, and why does this work? [link] [comments]  |

| Does a baseball really travel farther in humid weather? Posted: 21 Jul 2016 07:34 AM PDT I was listening to a Washington Nationals game and one of the players hit a ball all the way into the upper deck above right field. The announcers made a comment that because it was so humid that night the ball traveled farther. Is this actually true? And why would humidity have any impact on the distance traveled?

| What's the fastest speed sound can go? Posted: 21 Jul 2016 08:13 AM PDT Specifically, what temperature, medium, or any other factors that are relevant. Thanks! [link] [comments]  |
| Why is Ecuador being consistently hit with earthquakes ever since the 7.8 earthquake on April 16? Posted: 21 Jul 2016 08:53 AM PDT Ecuador suffered a major earthquake on April 16 and ever since then they have been constantly hit with them almost on a daily basis? Prior to that big on in April I didn't hear much about natural disasters like this in Ecuador. Since my family is from there i'm very curious/worried about why this continues to happen. Today there was another one (5.6) and it seems almost daily they are getting hit with earthquakes in or around the area of the 7.8 earthquake suffered on April 16. [link] [comments]  |
| Efficiently calculating the volume and surface of complicated objects? Posted: 21 Jul 2016 09:18 AM PDT Hi there Is there an easy way of calculating the volume and surface of complicated/difficult/irregular objects? Objects that aren't similar to cubes, spheres, cylinders and the like. Thanks! [link] [comments]  |

| If Earth was split into two and the halves moved 100m apart, would they fall onto one another? Posted: 21 Jul 2016 03:18 PM PDT Imagine you used a giant knife to cut the planet into two halves of the same size, how would gravity work? Would they fall or float in space? [link] [comments]  |

| How would a geochemist test the heavy metal levels of an area/substance in the late 1970s? Posted: 21 Jul 2016 08:03 AM PDT Would it be different then we do now, or would it be generally the same? I know it's kind of a mix between askscience/askhistorians, but I wanted to try here first because it is mostly a science question. Also, if I could expand upon it, what would be in the geochemists field kit in the 1970's if they were sent to study an unknown geochemical anomaly? [link] [comments]  |
