Question about How Do Viruses React To Soap? activity Question about How Do Viruses React To Soap? activity 1. In the activity, there is no scrubbing of the virus balls still the soap molecules react. I want to understand why does CDC insists on scrubbing while washing hands. If I dip my hands into a soapy water solution and just swirl the solution around (and not scrub) will the soap still take away the virus? 2. If I cover my hands with soap lather and not scrub anywhere and leave the… Read more

Invertebrate Invertebrate When I had an invertebrate animals topic, one of my students asked why did they name 'Sea Jellies' if they live in the ocean. Maybe anyone can help? Re: Invertebrate Hi!

Trouble Shooting Obstacle-avoiding robot Trouble Shooting Obstacle-avoiding robot Hi there, I have assembled an obstacle avoiding robot using the circuit instructions from Science buddies, but what happens is that if I press on a lever, the opposite wheel does not move backward. only forward (the wheel on the same side of the lever stops). Could you tell me what is going on, as I haven't seen this kind of situation appear in the FAQ section on the page. Thank you very much. Re: Trouble… Read more

(Will have to think on that later.) However, to fill out my science topic selection worksheet (which is due on Tuesday; so I would prefer to receive an answer before then please),… Read more

Echo underground

Ask an Expert Topic Forum: Grades 9-12: Physical Science

Echo underground Echo underground Hi Does anyone know whether the same structure (say a concrete 50㎥ room) over ground, would have more intense echo had it been under ground? If not what causes it? And how severe is the difference? thanks! Re: Echo underground I know this question is old, but I thought it was interesting. The amount a sound echoes depends on how much the material absorbs sound. So if you were to have a solid metal box, it would probably echo the same above and below… Read more
