| How long does someone have to remain on immunosuppressants for after receiving a transplant? Posted: 31 May 2018 06:54 AM PDT Would the body "get used" to the transplanted organ, or would you have to stay on immunosuppressants for the rest of your life? Wouldn't that cause serious quality of life issues? [link] [comments]  |
| Can an electrical device be powered using only negative voltage? Posted: 31 May 2018 05:41 AM PDT I know that one can convert an AC voltage to positive and negative DC voltage, and one can combine the two to obtain different voltages (for instance, +12vdc and -5vdc will give you +17vdc). So, what if I had a device that would provide me with -5vdc, and a ground? Could I then plug the ground into a USB's Vin, and the -5vdc to the USB's ground and power a USB device? Or is there some reason that this won't work? If there is, what is the reason? [link] [comments]  |
| Can we detect rogue black holes? Posted: 31 May 2018 01:06 AM PDT So we can now, reliably, detect gravitational waves from merging black holes, and even merging neutron stars. But what about black hole - black hole encounters that resulted in one of the pair being ejected out into space? Wouldn't the tremendous velocity of an infinitely dense object dragging through space-time exude it's own gravitational waves? [link] [comments]  |
| Do people weigh differently in different areas on earth? Posted: 30 May 2018 05:59 PM PDT Since the earth is not a perfectly round sphere, different areas on earth must have varying depths of minerals and other elements underground which may affect the gravitational pull of the core of different areas. Would this mean if I weighed the same in one place and I moved to a country on the other side of the world I would weigh differently even if my mass is indifferent? [link] [comments]  |
| Is the Axis of the Sun moving in relation to the Milky Way? Posted: 31 May 2018 12:16 AM PDT Is our solar system changing its plane in relationship to the rest of the galaxy as we revolve around the galaxy core? [link] [comments]  |

| Why are certain elementary particles considered elementary if they decay? Posted: 31 May 2018 12:01 AM PDT Looking at a list of all the elementary particles in the standard model, the charm quark, strange quark, top quark, bottom quark, muon, tauon, W boson, Z boson, and Higgs boson all quickly decay into other particles. So why are they considered elementary particles? Why isn't the W boson considered a composite particle of an electron/antineutrino or positron/neutrino? Why isn't the top quark considered a composite particle made up of a W boson and a bottom quark? [link] [comments]  |

| Posted: 30 May 2018 03:53 PM PDT A lot of our climate is dependent on the ocean, iirc past opening and closing of waterways through shifting plate tectonics caused pretty vast climate changes. So would the opening of two canals, which both connect to new oceans cause any significant change? [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 30 May 2018 10:55 AM PDT It is predictable enough that Govt. has put up ads for tourists to watch this in July 2018. Swathes of hills get blanketed by this blue flowers. [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 30 May 2018 01:06 PM PDT Assuming you could convert 100% of the amount of energy that the signal contains and convert it entirely to a certain wavelength of visible light how would that compare to a common bulb or led? Please consider a home series wireless N variety access point, and if possible give us a comparison to a lightbulb, christmas light, etc. [link] [comments]  |

| Why would Gaddafi implementing the African Gold Dinar have destabilized the American dollar? Posted: 30 May 2018 02:45 PM PDT It was supposed to be a currency backed by the value of gold and used by all African countries. I've read that it would have helped out the African economy immensely, and also ruined the American one. Why would it only significantly affect the USD? Or do I only think that because I'm reading US written articles? Or is it to do with Libya's considerable oil reserves? [link] [comments]  |

| How do they vary wattage in incandescent light bulbs? Posted: 30 May 2018 04:23 PM PDT I understand that standard US incandescent bulbs are receiving 120v from my wall socket directly and I know that reducing the resistance can raise the wattage, but how do they do this? Is it a thicker filament? Different material? Longer filament? In the same regard, can I buy an incandescent bulb in the USA and put it in a European lamp in Europe or will the bulb burn out from the higher base voltage coming from the wall? [link] [comments]  |
| Ask Anything Wednesday - Physics, Astronomy, Earth and Planetary Science Posted: 30 May 2018 08:12 AM PDT Welcome to our weekly feature, Ask Anything Wednesday - this week we are focusing on Physics, Astronomy, Earth and Planetary Science Do you have a question within these topics you weren't sure was worth submitting? Is something a bit too speculative for a typical /r/AskScience post? No question is too big or small for AAW. In this thread you can ask any science-related question! Things like: "What would happen if...", "How will the future...", "If all the rules for 'X' were different...", "Why does my...". Asking Questions: Please post your question as a top-level response to this, and our team of panellists will be here to answer and discuss your questions. The other topic areas will appear in future Ask Anything Wednesdays, so if you have other questions not covered by this weeks theme please either hold on to it until those topics come around, or go and post over in our sister subreddit /r/AskScienceDiscussion , where every day is Ask Anything Wednesday! Off-theme questions in this post will be removed to try and keep the thread a manageable size for both our readers and panellists. Answering Questions: Please only answer a posted question if you are an expert in the field. The full guidelines for posting responses in AskScience can be found here. In short, this is a moderated subreddit, and responses which do not meet our quality guidelines will be removed. Remember, peer reviewed sources are always appreciated, and anecdotes are absolutely not appropriate. In general if your answer begins with 'I think', or 'I've heard', then it's not suitable for /r/AskScience. If you would like to become a member of the AskScience panel, please refer to the information provided here. Past AskAnythingWednesday posts can be found here. Ask away! [link] [comments]  |
