Why are there dents on the side of a gallon of milk?

it makes the container stronger and less likely to dent or crinkle.

Large storage tanks are usually cylindrical and vertical for all three reasons you mention; economics, space and technical.\n\nUsing calculus (maxima and minima) it is possible to design a tank that contains the most volume for the least tank metal.  This also applies to canned foods.  Also, cylinders are very strong and can not bulge compared to the flat sides of a box-shaped tank.  Also, the pressure in the tank is greatest at the bottom of the tank and the cylindrical plates there can be thicker and stronger than at the top saving metal and tank weight.  Of course, the bottom plate of the tank could bulge except it rests on a concrete floor.\n\nAlthough a cylindrical tank has a smaller "foot print" than a square tank, it can rise to almost any height required to provide the needed volume, taking good advantage of the 3D space available.\n\nOn the technical side, a cylindrical tank is stronger when empty than a box-shaped tank and easier to transport to the needed location without damage.  It is easier to design good welds for a tank that will not constantly flex in operation as the tank is filled and drained and cylindrical tanks flex less than box-shaped tanks.  For onsite construction, it is probably easier to weld curved metal plates into cylinders than to make a huge flat plate from a patchworks of smaller plates.  Cylendrical tanks are less likely to buckle than box-shaped tanks due to ground tremmors.

It is because the round or circular shape is the most uniform shape of all (there are no edges or corners) - this means the amount of stress force exerted from the surrounding soil is uniformly distributed onto it; wheareas if it was some other shape with corners or edges, then stress concentration would be higher at those places, which would cause cracks/erosion that can destroy the pothole.

If it fell butter side up, you might just pick it up, thinking whew that was a close one. When it falls butter down it gets hair and gross stuff all stuck in the butter, a more memorable experience. \n\nTest have been done and the results where that toast doesn't fall on one side more than the other. So the only explanation for this interesting thing is that it's a perception problem as I stated in the first part

I am not sure but it sounds like there is something blocking the feed rollers, before you open it to find the trouble turn it upside down and smack it a couple times to see if anything drops out from inside....

i think it has something to do with the density...couldnt tell you exactly tho

Sothat the pills don't get damaged during shipping and handling.\n\nMost bottles are not totally full(why is that??)So they need to fill up the empty space.

Well in real life it does not matter if the milk has a 15 percent loss due to spoilage because the dairy takes the hit on that. That is why sometimes when you go to the store they are out of milk because the dairy estimates fairly close to usage. Never the less the store does not take the loss on spoiled milk so the answer to your question should be $1.90 per gallon as the selling price.\nGood luck and you can always argue the point about the spoilage because no store is going to pay for spoilage they keep milk cold enough and it is traded out prior to expiration.\nIf your teacher says you have to include spoilage it is 6.6 cents per gallon so 30 times 6.6 equals 1.98 cents per gallon but once again get the Name of the store he shops at and avoid it at all costs because he is getting ripped off.

When you put water in a beaker or test tube, you see a curved surface. With most liquids, the attractive force between the liquid and the container is greater than the attraction between the individual liquid molecules. So the liquid "sticks" to the side of the container. this is what is called miniscus.\n\nA few liquids have a "backwards" meniscus. An example is mercury. If you put mercury in a test tube, it would be higher in the middle than at the edges.

They are about the same density so they sould absorb in about the same time. How you can tell this is the fact that water and milk mix completely. One does not seperate from the other (ex. oil and water)

Since no has taken a stab at this yet, I'll try:\n\n  As an experiment, food was first cooked (to kill germs)\nand then stored in air-tight bottles. It was taken aboard an \nEnglish ship. After a couple of months the bottle was opened\nand the food was found not to have spoiled.\n  A sheet metal worker found out about this, and thought \nabout storing food in cans instead. James Burke discusses \nthis in one of the Connections Programs. I've included a \nlink in the sources part.\n  There is no reason the surface area of the can would vary\nbetween now and then unless the cans were first made with \na square bottom. I don't believe it was.

It's because of the minor imperfections in the placement of the mirrors. Also, because the effect can't be seen without seeing it at an angle, it causes a curve based on your viewpoint.

Pressure dents happen all the time and aint avoidable,  usually they are just from your knee or from sittin on your board. Boards can last for years, it just means they wont look as good as a new one.  A pressure dent is different to a ding, a ding is a hole that water gets into, I wouldnt buy a board with a ding, but a few dents aint gonna affect it all that much.\n\nSurfboards look old very quikly, so its cool if you can buy a new one every year, or every 6 months. And its fun to buy a second hand one for cheap that you can just thrash around on.

u have false information.during pregancy in the 5th month milk ducts are formed in the breast  and milk comes out only after the  childbirth not before tht the milk ducts  get converted into the liquid form.How  does this happen i dnt know but ITS ALL THE CREATION OF GOD

Because after milk is extracted, it is then cooled in the dairy and transported in refrigerated tankers for processing. Unchilled milk would soon go sour due to acid production by lactobacilli. Even if kept refrigerated, raw milk goes off rapidly due to the action of psychrophilic (cold-tolerant) bacteria. These produce proteinases and lipases which break down both the protein and the fat in milk, causing rancid and bitter tastes and clotting. \n\nOne unusual type of bacteria which can grow is called Alcaligenes viscolactis – this produces sticky threads of exopolysaccharide in the milk called ropiness.\n\n:)\nPeace

Easy. You heated the can, which means the air inside the can, including steam, was at a high temperature. That means it occupied more space. When you dunked it into cold water, the steam turned back into water, and the air in the can became more dense. The can crumpled because you basically created a vacuum effect. You decreased the volume suddenly by reducing the temperature.\n\nEnough?
