Gravitational potential at a point is gravitational potential energy per unit mass placed at that point.
Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR): The technique, which is used to amplify (clone) a single gene or a piece of DNA into thousands to millions of copies by…
Unsupervised Learning is a type of machine learning where the model is trained on unlabeled data — that is, data that does not include correct output…
Qualitative analysis asks what is present (identity). Quantitative analysis asks how much. A confirmatory test establishes identity. An observation that only…
A box plot shows min, Q1, median, Q3, max. The box runs from Q1 to Q3 (the IQR). A line inside the box is the median. Whiskers go to the extremes (or to…
Central Nervous System (CNS): The central nervous system consists of the brain and spinal cord. Both are hollow. They are covered with three protective…
HIV (Human Immunodeficiency Virus): HIV is a retrovirus that causes Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS). It attacks the immune system, specifically…
Fuel cell named if in the book (physics/chemistry border). Grey vs green H2 as slogans (fossil vs renewable electricity). Hazard: flammable, not a how-to store…
Homogeneous Equilibria: An equilibrium system in which all of the reactants and products are in the same phase. Heterogeneous Equilibria: Equilibria…
Geometric isomerism (also called cis-trans isomerism) is a form of stereoisomerism describing the orientation of functional groups within a molecule. It…
Bond Order: The total number of bonds formed when two atoms' atomic orbitals overlap with each other. It is half of the difference between the number of…
Problem: A problem is a challenge or situation that needs to be overcome using some action. In computer science, a problem is a challenge or situation that…
What it is: Fertilization is the union of a male gamete (sperm) and a female gamete (egg) to form a zygote. What happens: · It restores the diploid…
Ports, Expansion Slots and Expansion Cards: These components enable the connection and enhancement of the computer's capabilities by providing interfaces…
Polar molecules, dipole. b.p. higher than the alkane of similar size (extra force). Insoluble in water like many organics. No solvent-abuse guide.…
A diode allows current much more easily in one direction than the other, like a one-way valve. Forward bias conducts; reverse bias blocks most current.
Non-Competitive Inhibition: In non-competitive inhibition, the inhibitor molecule binds to an enzyme at a site other than the active site. The other…
School names for ammonia and nitric acid centre on two industrial routes: the Haber process makes NH₃ from N₂ and H₂; the Ostwald process oxidises ammonia…
If you claim (2+3i)(1+i) = -1+5i, expand the left again. If you claim a quotient is i, multiply i by the old denominator and compare with the numerator.
Centripetal force can be supplied by different contact or field forces, such as static friction on a level curve.
Vertices lie on the transverse axis; asymptotes guide branches and use slopes +-ba.
An LDR is a light-dependent resistor whose resistance decreases as light intensity increases and rises in darkness.
Unsigned Numbers Representation: Unsigned numbers don't have any sign; they can contain only the magnitude of the number. So, the representation of…
A vernier caliper is a measuring device used to measure a fraction of the smallest division on a main scale by sliding another scale over it. It can be…
