| What color does the human eye track the best? Posted: 23 Dec 2016 12:15 AM PST So say you had a dot moving around, what color dot would the human eye be able to follow and react to the fastest and most accurately? [link] [comments]  |

| Could we detect an antimatter star? Posted: 22 Dec 2016 07:00 PM PST Using any ground or space telescopes, can we distinguish a star made of antimatter from a matter star should one exist? [link] [comments]  |
| What is Exactly one second? And can the duration of a second change? Posted: 22 Dec 2016 06:20 PM PST I have been thinking a lot but how do you define one second? And can the duration on one second be changed or it is already changing? Or is constant [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 22 Dec 2016 08:24 PM PST Helium's ionization energy is about 2370 kJ/mol which is higher than any other element's and is also higher than all bond energies (that I know of). However, is it possible to create some neutral compound which is harder to remove an electron from? I'm thinking teflon or some sort of fullerene would come closest but I'm not sure.

| Since beta particles are electrons, can they be directly converted to electrical energy? Posted: 22 Dec 2016 05:56 PM PST Please correct me if I'm wrong, but if you had a beta emitter and a piece of lead next to each other, the emitter would emit negatively-charged beta particles and become positively charged, while the lead would absorb the beta particles and become negatively charged. If this occurs, is it practical as a power source? [link] [comments]  |

| Would burning off alcohol reduce the volume of a liquid? Posted: 22 Dec 2016 07:33 PM PST I'm a cook, and we flambe a lot of alcohol before using it so that things will still freeze and set properly and there is always a significant difference in how much liquid is in the pan when we add it and when the flame goes out, but it is also on the burner so I would assume evaporation is playing a large part in that. That being said, in a perfect situation where the alcohol was heated to combustion but not enough for it to evaporate and you let the flame burn as long as possible, would 100ml of a 40% alcohol liquid end up as 60ml?

| Are there any animal species that exist in BOTH polar regions? Posted: 22 Dec 2016 10:47 AM PST Animals like polar bears only live in the arctic while penguins are only in the antarctic. It makes sense that you wouldn't find either in both regions as it would require travel through the tropical center latitudes which is not condusive to their lifestyle. Are there any animals out there that buck this trend and can be found at both polar regions? [link] [comments]  |

| How do you determine experimental certainty? Posted: 22 Dec 2016 03:06 PM PST I'm conducting an "experiment" for a game, and I was wondering, how do you determine how certain you are of your answer? Eg. if something happened 7 out of 100 times, are you certain to the tens or the ones place? [link] [comments]  |

| Is there a difference in warming up my car on a cold day in Park or in Drive? Posted: 22 Dec 2016 06:37 AM PST The parking lot at my work is fairly large, and it takes a minute to navigate out of it. Is there a difference if I let my car idol in Park, or can I put in in Drive and creep forward (not touching the gas pedal at all) with no ill effect? [link] [comments]  |
| What is the rate of pressure change through a medium? Posted: 22 Dec 2016 12:26 PM PST (Sorry about the strange way of phrasing the question but a quick Google search on pressure change and the like leads down a bunch of wrong way streets.) When I'm in room with two doors and I open one of them, I can usually hear a bump from the door at the other end of the hallway because of (I believe) the decrease in pressure causing the door to shift. So if I were to open the door at the end of a 100 meter long hallway, how long before a door at the other end would shift in response? Hence, what is the speed of pressure change through air?

| What are some downstream effects of this year's unprecedented Arctic heat wave? Posted: 22 Dec 2016 11:54 AM PST This article mentions a 50-degree variance from historic averages, which sounds insanely large to my uneducated mind...Wouldn't that absolutely devastate e.g. plants that require freezing to go dormant? Are there likely to be large population adjustments due specifically to one season of these extreme temperatures? [link] [comments]  |
| If Gut Bacteria Between People Is Different, Could Transplantation Affect Caloric Requirements? Posted: 22 Dec 2016 05:55 AM PST So... someone please explain this to me. Everyone has different gut bacteria... some people's are more different than others to the point that transferring fecal matter from one persons gut to another's can cure some diseases per the following article. http://www.nydailynews.com/life-style/health/poop-pill-restore-digestive-balance-article-1.1475947 Logic would point that some gut bacteria is more capable of breaking down food in our gut than other strains, and therefore people with said gut bacteria would require less food to survive. By this logic, would it not make sense to lessen caloric requirements in the 3rd world by transplanting or bio-engineering gut bacteria in pill form to give people a greater ability to harness energy from food? Would the inverse not also work for helping obese people lose weight? I am curious if this line of thought has been explored before. Seems like this could solve a lot of problems...
