What is the difference between hard and soft coastal engineering?

Hard engineering is artificial, expensive and large scale coastal defences, where as soft engineering is more "in tune" with the environment and is considered ecologically friendly by using more na...

What is the difference between sedimentary, igneous and metamorphic rocks?

Sedimentary rocks are those that are formed by the weathering or breaking down of pre-existing rocks that then get laid down and lithified in layers such as sandstone. Igneous rocks are formed by tectonic pr...

The equation of line 1 is y=3x-2 and the equation of line 2 is 3y-9x+5=0. Show the two lines are parallel.

The two lines are parallel if they have the same gradient, so for a line in the form y=mx+c, m of the two lines must be the same.Line 1 is already in this form so we need to rearrange line 2 to be in this fo...

85 cm^3 of 0.05 mol/dm^3 sulfuric acid is used to neutralise 15 cm^3 of sodium hydroxide of an unknown concentration. Given that the chemical formula of the reaction is 2NaOH + H2SO4 => NA2SO4 + 2H2O, find the concentration of the sodium hydroxide.

Firstly, calculate the number of moles of sulfuric acid that reacts with the sodium hydroxide, using the equation; n = MV/1000 , where n is the number of moles, M is the concentration (in mol/dm 3 ), and V i...

Find the equation of a straight line that passes through the points (2,7) and (5,3)

Since we're told the line is straight, the equation of the line will be of the form y = mx + c.The gradient of the line, m, is the change in y divided by the change in x ; m = (3-7)/(5-2) = - 4/3.Therefore, ...
