Alessandro Volta's theory of contact tension considered that the emf, which drives the electric current through a circuit containing a voltaic cell, occurs at the contact between the two metals. Volta did not consider the electrolyte, which was typically brine in his experiments, to be significant.
Victoria Falls Bridge is the location for a 111 meters (364 ft) bungee jump. The Victoria Falls Bridge crosses the Zambezi River just below the Victoria Falls. The bungee jump operates off the Victoria Falls Bridge and has a 100% safety record. Over 50,000 people have bungee jumped from this location.
If humans had the jumping power of a flea, a 1.8-m (6-ft) person could make a jump 90 m (295 ft) long and 49 m (160 ft) high. Researchers with the University of Cambridge in England found that fleas take off from their tibiae and tarsi (the insect equivalent of feet) and not their trochantera, or knees.enerally speaking, an adult flea only lives for 2 or 3 months. Without a host for food a flea's life might be as short as a few days. With ample food supply, the adult flea will often live up to 100 days.
