- What is it about the measles virus that makes it transmissible in tiny aerosol droplets but coronavirus and influenza are only transmitted in bigger droplets?
- If quarks are supposed to come in quark-antiquark pairs, how is it there are only 3 quarks, and no antiquarks, in protons and neutrons?
- Specific substances can cause constricted/dilated pupils or red eyes - but how and why are human eyes affected by drugs?
- Theory of relativity, I think?
- Would "field lines" be visible with a magnet surrounded by fine iron powder in space?

- Does being infected with one virus reduce the chance of coinciding infection by another virus?
- Is it possible to turn any of our gas giants into a star?
- What I learned in biology class is that if for example, a bird is covered in a lot of hair that covers its eyes, its genes will know that the bird can’t see with hair in its face, so a new gene was made to produce less hair around the eyes. How did the genes themselves know this was required?
- Are proton-proton and neutron-neutron nuclear force interactions provide significant attraction? Can one hadron only 'bind' with another hadron via the nuclear force?
- Is Pluto still growing? I know it passes through the kuiper belt so it's still making alot of collision right? Does that mean it's still adding mass? Planetary sci.

| The Spanish Flu of 1918 was a strain of H1N1, but how do we know that? Posted: 22 Mar 2020 06:56 PM PDT Did we understand the different strains of influenza a century ago, or was this a more recent discovery? If it was more recent, how was the virus preserved to make said discovery? [link] [comments]  |

| Theory of relativity, I think? Posted: 23 Mar 2020 02:58 AM PDT So I was thinking. If the Earth moves at a speed, at which the galaxy is faster, then clusters, then super clusters, how are we not smushed like pancakes? Just accelerating in G forces at rates to leave our planet is already strenuous on average human beings. [link] [comments]  |
| Would "field lines" be visible with a magnet surrounded by fine iron powder in space? Posted: 22 Mar 2020 07:43 PM PDT My initial question was "why does a magnet, when surrounded by iron filings/powder, show field lines if the magnetic field is continuous." That was explained by friction essentially. So what happens if you remove the friction? Would it all just... stick... to the magnet? EDIT: Or would you literally have a "cloud" of iron powder? Or some other... shape? [link] [comments]  |
| If COVID-19 is in the same family as the common cold why should we expect a Cure / Vaccine? Posted: 22 Mar 2020 04:20 PM PDT Is the common cold synonymous with coronavirus and every time you get one it could be a different strand? [link] [comments]  |
| Does the LHS @CERN generate collision debris after very many millions of collisions? Posted: 22 Mar 2020 11:21 AM PDT I know that the beams are rotating counter clockwise and that the collisions are only on the atomic scale. But, there's very many millions of them and the collisions yield new products that are detected by the experiment. My question is: is there residue of these collisions that sticks to / coats the surface of the detectors and makes them 'dirty'? I would not expect that to be the case because it's all on an atomic scale, but if you keep doing that for an appreciable amount of time, generating millions upon millions of collisions, maybe there is a cumulative buildup of debris. Maybe it might even interfere or affect the accuracy of the detectors. Is that something that is taken into account or is it complete nonsense? [link] [comments]  |
| Why have humans evolved to touch our own faces with frequency? Posted: 22 Mar 2020 03:35 PM PDT I am a Public Health major and a large percentage of reduction strategy for neglected tropical diseases, the flu, and many other viruses is simply encouraging handwashing while trying to encourage limited "face touching". Not one of my classes has ever discussed why we touch our faces so often? From a limited google search, it seems most other creatures do not touch their faces nearly as often. Considering one of the easiest ways to reduce viral spread is avoiding hand contact with your face, why did we evolve to touch our face so often? [link] [comments]  |
| Does being infected with one virus reduce the chance of coinciding infection by another virus? Posted: 23 Mar 2020 12:07 AM PDT This is a hypothetical question but could it be developed into an effective vaccine in future. [link] [comments]  |

| Posted: 22 Mar 2020 01:38 PM PDT Protons and neutrons bind by residual strong force. Can these two bind with each other with any significant strength? Also can one neutron only bind to one proton and vice versa? [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 22 Mar 2020 06:22 AM PDT I was watching story bots with my kids, the one where they talk about how planets form that's what brought up the question. [link] [comments]  |
| How do we know Virus "X" lingers in the air for "X" hours? Posted: 22 Mar 2020 10:19 PM PDT For example. They say COVID19 can remain in the air for 3 hours. How do they figure this out ? [link] [comments]  |
| Why do propellers cause more drag when they reach supersonic speeds? Posted: 22 Mar 2020 02:25 PM PDT I'm a student studying physics and would like to study aerodymics more in depth. [link] [comments]  |
| Are tropical tundras possible? Posted: 22 Mar 2020 07:14 AM PDT I am very confused about biomes, could there be any tropical tundras there on Earth? [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 22 Mar 2020 08:30 PM PDT Let's say I have a functional equation curve and a parametric equation curve. How do I compare those two curves? How do i find the percentage of similarity of those two curves? [link] [comments]  |
| Does software suffer from "wear and tear"? Posted: 22 Mar 2020 03:57 AM PDT As the tittle says, does software suffer from wear and tear from constant use? Can anything change in the "physical storage" of a program, or in the program coding itself, that leads to it being broken? Is this way how sofware gets corrupt? [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 22 Mar 2020 07:25 AM PDT For reference, this is the plate boundary map I used, and this is the earthquake event concerned. The epicentre is north of Zagreb, the capital. [link] [comments]  |
