The antibacterial components of antibacterial soaps (usually triclosan or, less commonly, triclocarbon) needs to be left on a surface for about two minutes in order to work. Most people are not this patient, and end up washing off the soap before the antibacterial ingredients can do their job. thats me

Dolphins are one of the few animals other than humans known to mate for reasons other than reproduction and especially male Bottlenose Dolphins are known to engage in sexual acts with other dolphin species, which is not always consensual, though the Bottlenose may also be submissive in such encounters. Occasionally, dolphins will also show sexual behaviour towards humans. dont even think about it, it didnt work with monkeys

Maybe you can answer this question that has puzzled me for ages:

If you are in a space ship, travelling at the speed of light, and turn your head lights on......do they do you any good?????

The head lights would work as per normal. The light projected from them would be traveling at 2 x the speed of light if viewed at a stationary position. BTW the speed of light is not the fastest thing in the universe, its just the fastest thing that we have discovered so far. If a car was traveling at that speed and turned the headlights on, you would have just invented the fastest thing that we know of. Look at it this way, if you were stud on top of a train traveling at 100mph and threw a tennis ball in the same direction at 100mph the ball would be traveling at 100mph as from the train and 200mph if measured from the ground. If you threw the ball towards the rear of the train it would be traveling at 200mph away from you but it would be motionless from looking at it from the ground (gravity not taken into effect).

Yes.the headlamp light will still travel at the speed of light relative to you

Dont do it though,I hear its an offence to shine your lights at the dark side of the moon,3 points and a caution,and its issued the day before you commit the offence by the rapid response police

Kids in school were asked what the fastest thing in the world was
jenny said "its blinking Miss we blink hundreds and hundreds of times without thinking " Very good said teacher
freddy said " its ELECTRICITY miss When I turn the light on its ON before i blink" Very good Fred
Sandra says "Its thought Miss we think thousands and thousands of thinks without realising it !" Very good OK Jonny what do you think it is?
Wee Jonny says "Its Dihorea Miss" How do you work that out Jonny? " Well last night we had a curry n my belly was sore before I could think blink or turn the light on Id Keeched myself!!"

I only said it for a laugh, but I'm really glad for your answer, its what I've always argued, while others have said you would travel at the same speed so never catch up with it!!

Thanks

As much as I love my history mate, I just couldn't think of any other battles that he (Nelson) was involved in. AND I THOUGHT that cavalry wanted the battles BEFORE Trafalgar. A couple of minutes ago, I thought of cadiz - but that wasn't a battle in the truest sense.
