RSFOTDDogs don't get frostbite when they play in the snow because the blood vessels in their paws are arranged in such a way to keep their body heat from escaping.

Best Answer of the Week ­ Stanley Zhen

There shouldn't be stars right next to the moon because the moon would cover the stars.

Mechanical Advantage = how much faster and easier

a machine makes your work.

Friction = When two objects rub against each other.

Efficiency = How easily a machine does work.

The less friction, the more efficient a machine is.

Which is more efficient?

In all machines, some work is wasted due to friction,

so no machine is 100% efficient.

Ideal Machine = 100% efficient  (this doesn't exist)
