Dangers lurk at every step, except for the gases used by man in many areas of activity. Gas poisoning is detrimental to humans in most cases, antidotes for many species have not yet been invented or found. Last modified: 2024-01-02 17:01

Matrix is a special mathematical element. It is a table consisting of a certain number of rows and columns. Matrices are used in mathematics to write and conveniently solve systems of linear equations. Systems of equations using a matrix are solved using the Gauss method, Cramer's method, the method of algebraic additions, etc. The basis of working with matrices is to bring it to a standard, or triangular form.

Aerodynamic drag is a force acting opposite to the relative motion of any object. It can exist between two layers of solid surface. Unlike other resistive sets, such as dry friction, which are almost independent of speed, the drag forces obey a given value. Last modified: 2023-12-17 05:12

The lifting of multi-ton machines - planes - into the air became possible thanks to the study of aerodynamic laws by man. Of course, wings and an engine alone are not enough for an airplane to fly. About why planes fly, the article will tell. Last modified: 2023-12-17 05:12

Drag-to-drag is the force of aerodynamic drag that occurs whenever a moving object redirects the flow of air coming towards it. It plays a huge role in engineering, modern automotive construction and aircraft design. Last modified: 2023-12-17 05:12

The ability to critically analyze is very important for a person. In practice, this skill, when used in a timely manner, saves time and prevents rash acts that can only aggravate the situation, helps to unravel the tangle of causes and effects. However, critical analysis is a rather capacious concept. It is useful not only for detectives, but also applicable, perhaps, to all areas of human life. With its features and principles of work, we will try to figure it out. Last modified: 2023-12-17 05:12

Each material has a certain set of properties that determine its further characteristics. One of these qualities is the resistance to mechanical stress, which is called ultimate stress. This concept is understood not only as the destruction of the material at the fracture point, but also the appearance of permanent deformation. In other words, it is a counteraction to external forces that lead to a weakening of strength. Last modified: 2023-12-17 05:12

The long history of mankind has brought people to the high level of development at which we are now. It is generally accepted that man is the only rational being on the planet. However, in science there is no exact definition of the criterion of reason. That is why it is difficult to give any characteristics. Disputes on this topic among scientists are still ongoing. It has been experimentally proven that dolphins, elephants, monkeys and other inhabitants of the planet can be attributed to intelligent beings. Last modified: 2023-12-17 05:12

The work of modern enterprises, as well as the life of ordinary citizens, cannot do without electricity. At the same time, it should be understood that electric current, despite all its indispensability, is a very real danger. That is why the question of protection against its effects arose almost simultaneously with the first electrical appliances. One of the main links of this protection are fuses.

Semantic barriers prevent successful communication. They arise due to different interpretations of the meaning of the message by the interlocutors. Eliminating semantic barriers allows you to make communication comfortable and productive. Last modified: 2023-12-17 05:12

The neuron's dendrite is responsible for a person's ability to learn new things. For more than half a century, dendrites were considered only as passive antennas for receiving information for a neuron, but gradually the opinion about them is changing. It is possible that dendrites perform large-scale information processing and influence the formation of long-term memory. Last modified: 2023-12-17 05:12

Augustus, or August de Morgan lived in the middle of the 19th century in Scotland. He owns many scientific works. Among them are works on the topic of propositional logic and the logic of classes. And also, of course, the formulation of the world-famous de Morgan formula, named after him. Last modified: 2023-12-17 05:12

Before considering the methods of molecular biology, it is necessary to understand and realize at least in the most general terms what molecular biology itself is and what it studies. And for this you will have to dig even deeper and deal with the euphonious concept of "genetic information". And also remember what a cell, nucleus, proteins and deoxyribonucleic acid are.

In higher education institutions, the concepts of "induction" and "deduction" are often used, but rarely explained. Therefore, out of habit, many people use them, talking at the exam about the methods of a particular science (depending on the subject being taken). But if such peppy respondents are asked to give examples, many are lost. It is especially difficult for them to tell the difference between induction and deduction. This is a traditional question for many who have drawn ticket number one. Last modified: 2023-12-17 05:12

The Pythagorean theorem, the well-known geometric theorem that in a right triangle the sum of the squares of the legs is equal to the square of the hypotenuse, or in the familiar algebraic notation - a2 + b2=c2, should be known not only by every schoolchild, but also by any self-respecting educated Human. This article describes the definition of the Pythagorean theorem. As well as the history of its creation. Last modified: 2023-12-17 05:12

Single-celled organisms are considered the most primitive representatives of the animal kingdom. They form an extensive type of protozoa, the variety of which we will consider today. The Latin name for this type is Protozoa. Since single-celled organisms are difficult to separate into animals (Protozoa) and plants (Protophyta), they are often combined into the Protista group.

Among the many inventions made by great scientists in the past centuries, the discovery of the patterns of development of our universe in the form of a system of numbers is the most interesting and useful. This fact was described in his work by the Italian mathematician Leonardo Fibonacci. A number series is a sequence of digits in which each member value is the sum of the previous two. This system expresses the information embedded in the structure of all living things according to the harmonious development. Last modified: 2023-12-17 05:12
