SCIENCE CONTINENTAL TO CONTINENTAL PLATES (CONVERGENT BOUNDARY)
SCIENCE CONTINENTAL TO CONTINENTAL PLATES (CONVERGENT BOUNDARY)
Can only one mountain be formed at the convergent boundary (continental to continental plates)?
cause we made a model about convergent boundary. and our model shows only one big mountain made of plastic bottle. it's like both sides of the box have a side of mountain so when you pull the one box, it collides with the other box so it forms a one mountain.
I don't…

I don't know if we did correctly regarding our model.[/size][/size]

How do you go about creating a hypothesis for a research/data comparison project?
Re: Hypothesis
Hi there!
Thank you for your question!
If you are comparing two or more sets of data, I would suggest basing your hypothesis on a proposed correlation between the datasets. For example, say you have a dataset on scores obtained on a test for every student in a class and a corresponding dataset about how many hours each student studied for the test; you can hypothesize…

hii! (I'm not completely sure how this forum works) but i'm currently interested in a project that involves Planaria and the acquisition of diabetic planaria. Does anyone have any idea how i could go about getting/culturing diabetic planaria?
sorry if this makes no sense haha im still kind of confused about the topic myself
Re: Project
Hi there!
One platform I can think of that might be of use to you is Carolina Biological Supply! I had done a research project involving E.…

Culturing P. Bacterias/Cutibacterium acnes to target with laser therapy.
Culturing P. Bacterias/Cutibacterium acnes to target with laser therapy.
I have access to a wide variety of lasers as my mentor works in a dermatology office. I need help figuring out how to cultivate Cutibacterium acnes. I am currently thinking of using this: https://www.atcc.org/products/6919, but I'm not sure how I can grow it I'm multiple different petri dishes in order to apply the laser therapy to the dish. How…

Predicting the Weather
Predicting the Weather
HI, This is my last science fair and I am trying to go out with a good one. It is callled Predicting the Weather in science buddies and i wanted to get help with something. Do you have ideas of where I can get materials to build a hygrometer and/or a barometer? :?
Re: Predicting the Weather
Hi - In the project you are using, which is a project that you will have to create your own procedure for since it is an "abbreviated project idea," both…

Stroboscopic effect in water fountain
Stroboscopic effect in water fountain
How do I determine the duty cycle that I need for the stroboscopic effect?
Re: Stroboscopic effect in water fountain
Hi - this is difficult to determine in advance, the best approach is just to experiment with it. The frequency and duty cycle that give the best illusion will depend on a lot of factors including the speed and frequency of your water drops and what the rest of the lighting is like in the room. Very…

Equilibrium temperature of copper in water.
Equilibrium temperature of copper in water.
if a 100g piece of copper at 80 degrees celsius is placed into 200g of water at 20 degrees celsius, what will the final equillibrium temperature be? (specific heat capacity of copper = 39J/Kg degrees celsius, and specific heat capacity of water is 4182 J/Kg degrees celsius.)
So far, I have worked out
Q= m*c*△θ
Say final temperature of the copper is 'x', and final temperature of the water is…
