What you should do in order to learn more about the problem you identified
What is research the problem
I work to ensure that we will have energy in the future.
What is renewable energy scientist
I work to protect the environment through creating solutions for our Earth's problems.
What is environmental engineer.
What animal may not show up on thermal scans?
polar bears geckos sharks
Polar bears are nearly undetectable by infrared cameras.Thermal cameras detect the heat lost by a subject as infrared, but polar bears are experts at conserving heat. The bears keep warm due to a thick layer of blubber under the skin. Add to this a dense fur coat and they can endure the chilliest Arctic day.
I study the Earth's surface, it's rocks and fossils.
What is a geologist
I use math, chemistry and physics to solve problems related to chemicals.
What is chemical engineer.
Is Stomach acid is strong enough to dissolve stainless steel?
yes or no
yes, Your stomach digests food thanks to highly corrosive hydrochloric acid with a pH of 2 to 3. This acid also attacks your stomach lining, which protects itself by secreting an alkali bicarbonate solution. The lining still needs to be replaced continually, and it entirely renews itself every four days.
When they have many solutions engineers must do this to move on
What is select the best possible solution
This is what all science careers have in common in terms of the education they require
What is at least 4 years of college
I create new computer hardware and software.
What is computer engineer.
How long does it take light to travel from the Sun to Earth?
It takes 8 minutes, 19 seconds for light to travel from the Sun to the Earth. In space, light travels at 300,000 kilometres (186,000 miles) per second. Even at this breakneck speed, covering the 150 million odd kilometres (93 million miles) between us and the Sun takes a considerable time.
