- Each 10m underwater adds roughly 1atm in pressure. Does that change with liquids other than water? Would it be different in planets other than Earth?

| How does a Sand Bubbler Crab sift food from sand? Posted: 24 Jul 2017 07:25 PM PDT While watching The Hunt, I saw the segment where Sand Bubbler Crabs sift food from sand. The act seemed fluid to me as they brought the sand to their mouths and quickly sorted it away to form the inflated pellets they leave behind. I was curious as to how these crabs can seemingly sort small amounts of food and sand with ease, and how their mouths worked at a mechanical level. Are there any good diagrams or explanations as how this is done? [link] [comments]  |
| If the lepton anomalies (electron/tau/muon production rates) hold true, what happens next? Posted: 25 Jul 2017 04:22 AM PDT I'm referring to a recent review paper in Nature and papers from the LHC, this for example. The anomalies in for example Or are there good reasons to think that the repeatedly found anomalies will even out? [link] [comments]  |

| Do any other monogamous species get "divorced"? Posted: 25 Jul 2017 02:05 AM PDT As the title says, are there any other monogamous species that stay together to ensure the success of their offspring but then get divorced and find new partners? [link] [comments]  |
| Does UV light/radiation pass through clear plastic? Posted: 24 Jul 2017 04:08 PM PDT Does UV light pass through phone screen clear protectors? The transparent/clear protectors are made of PET and TPU. [link] [comments]  |

| Why does the ground cool faster than the air at night? Posted: 24 Jul 2017 06:22 PM PDT I get it, "radiational cooling"...but that's just another set of vocabulary. It's not really an explanation. I'm not here to learn a set of words, I want to really understand. [link] [comments]  |

| Can any AI currently find which 'key' features correlate to which responses by itself? Posted: 25 Jul 2017 03:16 AM PDT I'm unfamiliar with the field of AI, but from what I've heard in machine learning, researchers can initially specify a set of features and train a model to find parameters which predict response from these features. Feature selection and other methods can determine which features are better predictors. But what research has been done for AI finding these features by itself, without humans picking them? For example, say a system often prints 'start' before printing 'task'. The qualitative feature 'word printed before task', and specifically the value 'start', is good at predicting the response 'is task printed or not?' Can some AI discover these features by itself? If so, can anyone provide links to current research about this? [link] [comments]  |
| What happens to electricity after it hits the ground? Posted: 24 Jul 2017 05:17 PM PDT Does it all just get stored up into the earth until one day, millions of years from now we get a massive arcing from the earth to the moon? [link] [comments]  |
| How do fish in the ocean not get dehydrated? Posted: 24 Jul 2017 04:15 PM PDT Humans can't drink salt water because it has so much salt right? So how do fish stay hydrated if they never access to fresh water? [link] [comments]  |

| Why are terrestrial planets with the same mass as our gas giants so rare? Posted: 24 Jul 2017 08:51 AM PDT Looking at the exoplanets that have been discovered, terrestrial planets on average are far less massive than gas planets. What stops gravity from pulling all that matter into a solid? Why are the densest planets normally far less massive than the least dense? [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 24 Jul 2017 06:58 AM PDT If some alien civilization 500 light years away had a powerful enough telescope, could they see what, for example, my roof looks like? What are the factors that limit the level of detail? I have no idea about the way light travels, etc, but I got to wondering, looking up at the sky the other night, if it was possible an alien with an insanely powerful telescope could see me standing in yard looking back at him/her/it.
