Scientists had previously assumed that Earth’s mantle doesn’t contribute anything to planet’s magnetism. The new study has proved this assumption wrong. Iron oxide in the Earth’s mantle can retain magnetism at temperatures...
The new concept, named Flying-V, embraces a whole new approach to airplane design. It integrates the fuel tanks, the cargo hold, and the passenger cabin in the wings. The plane will have less aerodynamic resistance and will use 20% less fuel than...
The new study investigates how reading with toddlers affects parenting style. People who frequently read with their children are less likely to involve in harsh parenting. It also leaves a positive impact on children as they are less likely to...
The new instrument allows heat to temporarily flow from cold region to hot region without using any external energy. The process occurs through a series of quasi-equilibrium states, and completely obeys the second law of thermodynamics. What...
We need to be more specific when talking about how heavy an element is. There are two possible ways to define the “heaviest” elements – based on their density or atomic mass. The heaviest element in terms of density can be defined...
Frequent internet use could alter the brain’s structure and cognitive development. It may affect our memory process, attentional capacities, and social interactions. Extensive internet usage is more harmful in early adolescence as it reduces...
Developing and optimizing a large neural network can emit as much as 284,000 kilograms of carbon dioxide. This is equivalent to 5 times the lifetime emission of an average car. Recent advances in the field of artificial intelligence (AI) have...
An average person consumes at least 72,000 particles of plastic every year. When inhalation is included, these estimates rise up to 121,000. The estimates are based on 402 data points from 26 different studies. In 2015, about 4.9 billion metric...
Everything in the Universe — from Earth’s core to farthest galaxies — is made of atoms. It’s a fundamental unit of an element. And so far, 118 elements have been identified (all are listed in the periodic table). The word...
The healthcare industry is rapidly evolving with technological advancements and researches constantly redefining its limits. Hospitals, which are at the forefront of this industry must adapt quickly to these changes in order to stay relevant and...
Researchers reveal personality features that predict the rhythm and nature of human sleep. Neuroticism and conscientiousness are found to be highly associated with sleep quality. Sleep is a crucial part of our daily lives. This naturally recurring...
