What do most metal surfaces have in common with ceramic materials?
Studying bio materials and I need to know the answer to the above answer. Somehow I don’t think the answer is ceramics have metal components, but if that’s the answer then I guess I read to deep into the question.
Most metal surfaces are protected by an oxide film. Essentially these are layers a few atoms thick of ceramics on the surface of the metal.
Two good examples of this are Aluminum and Chromium in stainless steel alloys.
What’s the best program to use to make techno music?
I want a program that already has the beats in it. Like premade tracks waiting to be put in a techno song. I already have mixcraft 4. Or can you tell me how to get tracks for Mixcraft?
Hands down Acid Music (version 3.0) is very easy to use and you can download a ton of loops for it using searches for Fruity Loops, Sony ACID Music Studio (Much harder to use than the version 3.0), and a ton on the web. I have used this to make many songs and it is very user friendly. Since this is an old version, you might find it on EBay or Amazon (but most likely nowhere else!).
I am not familiar with Mixcraft but I have tried products from MAGIX and they eat up way to many resources and don’t have the ease of use like ACID Music 3.X.
Good Luck!
What are some good electronic(a) groups that a rock fan would like?
I really like ratatat, Ultraviolet Sound, and a little bit of Goldfrapp.
"Lex" — Ratatat (awesome song, it’s worth listening to)
Of course I like stuff like Daft Punk, but I wouldn’t necessarily consider that techno.
Oops. I meant to say that I WOULD consider Daft Punk techno, but would NOT consider it electronica. Stupid typo.
I have no idea if you’ll like any of these, haha, but it’s worth a shot.
Hot Chip
Electric Valentine
Dee
Moloko

How to bend back metal on a truck after an accident?
Ok, a few minutes ago i asked how to bend back the plastic on the truck, now i realized that the reason my tire is grinding against the plastic part is because in the accident is because the metal in the lower front of the truck from its middle or line of symmetry is bent back towards the right. As you may know i cannot heat this type of metal or after it cools down it will become weak and brittle. Is their any way (besides a repair shop) to bend that metal back to it’s original position without damaging or weakening the metal, or destroying the plastic around the metal?
If it got smashed the structural integrity is already somewhat compromised so who cares if you heat it. If it is part of a main support (frame, suspension,steering parts) or what some call super structure I would say you are right if it is simply body support heat it. Other than that a chain and a big tree or a really big bar. Good luck.
What makes the different variations of techno?
I know an alright amount of techno, but I wanna know, what are the different variations of techno, like house, trance, electronica, electro, breakore and all that good stuff and what exactly makes each version what it is. Thanks.
It depends on the synthesizer…

How can magnesium metal be used to distinguish between an acid and a base?
We did a lab in science and i need to find out what solutions where acidic, and which were basic (Alkaline) we put pieces of magnesium metal into each Solution, one of them fizzled and bubbled, one sank, and one floated.
active metals react with acids to produce hydrogen gas.
magnesium is an active metal
hydrogen gas makes the magnesium float
it does not react with the base

What type of metal should my next earing be?
I have 2 piercings on each of my ears. I’ve never gotten infections, but I do get lumps in my ears. I want to get my nose pierced but I was wondering what type of metal I should used to get them pierced? Any suggestions?
sterling silver. Those lumps in your ears are keloids, or scar tissue. Everyone gets them, you shouldn’t worry about them
