 HEY GUYS!!! TODAY'S QUESTION IS ABOUT WHY IS IT HARD TO HIT FLIES? SO LETS GOOOOOOOO................... Why is it so hard to hit flies? The house fly is known for its evasive maneuvers.   (Image credit: Suman Acharya/Alamy Stock Photo) A fly buzzes past your head and lands nearby; you snatch a flyswatter or roll up a magazine and approach cautiously — and you strike!  But no matter how quick you are, the fly is almost always faster, and it usually manages to evade your wallop and escape unharmed. (Is it trying to annoy you?!) Flies have many adaptations that lend them heightened speed, maneuverability and perception, making them very, very good at detecting and evading even the swiftest swats. And new evidence shows that flies' modified hind wings play an important part in launching them into a speedy takeoff — often just in the nick of time. House flies (Musca domestica) belong to the order Diptera, or true flies. Diptera flies possess modified hind wings that have...

 HEY GUYS!!! TODAY'S SCIENCE IS ABOUT MATTER... LET'S GOOOOO........ Matter is the Stuff Around You What is matter?  Matter  is everything around you.  Atoms  and compounds are all made of very small parts of matter. Those atoms go on to build the things you see and touch every day. Matter is defined as anything that has mass and takes up space (it has volume). What is mass?  Mass  is the amount of matter in an object. You might have a small object with a lot of mass such as a statue made of lead (Pb). You might have a large object with very little mass such as a balloon filled with helium (He). You should also know there is a difference between mass and weight. Mass is a measure of the matter in an object while weight is a measure of gravity’s pull on an object. What is volume?  Volume  is the amount of space something occupies. Words such as big, little, long, or short are used to describe volumes. A marble takes up a small volume while a s...

 HEY GUYS!!! TODAY'S INFO IS MICROSECOND... LET'S GOOOOO...... Microsecond What Does Microsecond Mean? A microsecond is a unit of time equal to one millionth of a second. It is also equal to one 1000th of a millisecond, or 1000 nanoseconds. Many of these units of very fine time measurement are used in high-tech laboratories where scientists measure data transfer unaffected by many of the usual limitations. The microsecond is part of a string of time measurements that extends into extremely short periods of time. For instance, a picosecond is a 1000th of a nanosecond, and a femtosecond is a 1000th of a picosecond. All of these very minute time period references apply to information technology in different ways. Scientists and technology professionals are always looking at how to use more precise time measurements in evaluating technologies. Although some types of technology use time measurements in the realm of microseconds, other uses involve difficulties related to the time th...

 HEY GUYS!!! TODAY IS 5 FACTS OF THE DAY... LET'S GGOOOOOOOOOOOO... 1. Can you feel pain in your brain? There are no pain receptors in the brain itself. But he meninges (coverings around the brain), periosteum (coverings on the bones), and the scalp all have pain receptors. Surgery can be done on the brain and technically the brain does not feel that pain. With that said, the brain is the tool we use to detect pain. 2. Why do things look darker when they are wet? When light strikes an object, some of it penetrates the object, and some of it is reflected and reaches your eye. When an object is wet, more light penetrates the object, so less light is reflected. As a result, less light reaches your eye and so the wet object looks darker. Read on for a more detailed explanation. 3. Why does fruit ripen faster in a paper bag? Placing fruit in a paper bag helps to concentrate the levels of ethylene gas which is what helps induce the ripening of the above mentioned fruits (bananas/avo...

 HEY GUYS!!! TODAY 'S HISTORY IS ABOUT U-BOAT... LET'S GOOOOO...... U-boat From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to navigation Jump to search This article is about German submarines. For the bootloader, see  Das U-Boot . For other uses, see  U-boat (disambiguation) . Not to be confused with  British U class submarine . U-995 , a typical VIIC/41 U-boat on display at the  Laboe Naval Memorial U-boats  were  naval submarines  operated by Germany, particularly in the  First  and  Second World Wars . Although at times they were efficient fleet weapons against enemy naval warships, they were most effectively used in an economic warfare role ( commerce raiding ) and enforcing a naval  blockade  against enemy shipping. The primary targets of the U-boat campaigns in both wars were the merchant convoys bringing supplies from  Canada  and other parts of the  British Empire , and from the United States, to the Unit...
