Question of the Week / Re: QotW - 12.04.29 - Why don't women have beards?
« on: 31/05/2012 17:25:46 »But adult males in some ethnic groups have very sparse facial hair, such as Asians and the Inuit, even though they live in cold climates. And if its a sexual preference of females, it must be only certain females. It is an interesting question.makes sense=beard parasites would affect breastfeeding babes as well as chest hairs
As for hair/fur loss in general, one article I read theorized that the advantage was fewer parasites.

Science Experiments / Re: Which boils first?
« on: 01/05/2012 16:23:26 »Not really a trick question.assuming the presence of a rotating base?+phase transition requires much more energy
As we know... if you put in ½ cup vs a full cup, the smaller cup (½) will boil faster than the full cup.
If you put in a full cup, vs two half cups, one would have the same amount of liquid, just different containers, so one would expect them to all take the same amount of time to boil.
Likewise, if one put in ¼ cup, and 3/4 cup, one still has 1 cup of water, and thus everything boils about the same.
There will be slight differences, which I would attribute to the uneven distribution of microwaves inside the microwave, as well as the ability of the container to act as a heat sink.

Technology / Re: Is it better to use the engine to decelerate?
« on: 27/04/2012 19:46:42 »The current advice in the UK is to slow down when approaching junctions using the brakes, rather than relying on engine braking.tap pedal & light worx, but how if 4 fluid circulations in tranny & engine?
This is not for any physical/ mechanical reasons, but because your brake lights let other road users know that you are decelerating...
