Yes, I know that title is confusing lol! It stands for “explain like I’m 5”. In other words, explain things in a basic way so we can easily understand <3


So, explain something, or ask for someone to explain something! I’ll post an example below <3

Cubism:

Cubism is a type of art that uses different shapes, colors, and lines to make pictures. Instead of showing a real life scene, cubist artists try to show the same scene from different angles all at the same time. They try to show motion and energy in their pieces too. Cubist artwork usually looks like it is made up of many pieces that don't quite fit together, but it all comes together to make a beautiful picture.

day light savings

Daylight savings is a way to make sure the daylight hours during the summer months are longer. To do this, we set our clocks ahead one hour in the spring (so it will get light an hour earlier) and set them back one hour in the fall (so it will get dark an hour earlier). This way we have more hours of daylight in the summer to do things like play outside and have fun in the sun.

@jesusredeemedme2425 ohhhhhh! I thought it might have been for school kids, so it's not dark when they have to make their way to school.

Nope! For everyone. My question is, does the whole world do it, or just Americans?

@jesusredeemedme2425


No, not the whole world observes daylight saving time (DST), which is the practice of moving clocks forward and back seasonally in the spring and fall. As of March 2024, only about a third of the world's countries, or about 70 countries, use DST. These countries are mostly located in Europe, North America, Latin America, and the Caribbean. For example, the United States, Canada, and Cuba all observe DST, except for Hawaii and most of Arizona. In Europe, most countries observe DST, but some countries like Armenia, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Georgia, Iceland, Russia, and Turkey do not. 
Some countries have tried DST but didn't like it, such as Bangladesh and Egypt.

Selenography

Selenography is a big word that means the study of the moon. Scientists who study selenography want to understand everything they can about the moon - like what it's made of, how big it is, and what kind of things happen on it.

To do this, they use really cool tools and gadgets, like telescopes and cameras, to look at the moon and take pictures of it. They also use spacecrafts that they can send up to the moon to explore it more closely.

Just like how you might explore your backyard to learn more about it, scientists explore the moon to learn more about it. They look at things like the craters on the moon's surface (which are like big dents), the rocks and dust that make up the moon's surface, and even the way the moon moves around the Earth.

All of this information helps scientists understand more about the moon and the universe we live in.

@jesusredeemedme2425 you know scientists have made big breakthroughs in studying space and the universe. I thought people could already get to the moon though, so I wonder how they don't know more about it already🤔🤔

It’s probably more like, they haven’t been to the moon very often, so it hasn’t been thoroughly explored yet.

how do microwaves work

Microwaves are special kinds of waves that are really good at making things warm. They travel around in the air just like radio waves or light. Your microwave has a big magnet inside it that makes microwaves move around really fast. When the microwaves bump into the food in your microwave, they make the water and fat molecules inside the food vibrate really fast which makes the food hot. That's how your microwave warms up your food.

inductive reasoning

Inductive reasoning is when we use information we already know about something to come up with a new idea or conclusion. It's like detective work. For example, if you saw paw prints from a small dog and heard barking from a small dog, you might use inductive reasoning to guess that a small dog is nearby. You looked at evidence that you already knew and used it to make a new guess.

heisenberg uncertainity principle

The Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle is like a game that nature plays with us. It says that when we look very closely at something in nature, we can't see some things at the same time. It's like when you play a game of hide-and-seek and if you look in one spot, the person hiding can't be in both that spot and another spot at the same time. So, the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle is essentially saying that if we are looking really closely at something in nature, like a tiny particle, we can't know exactly where it is and how fast it is moving and in what direction at the same time. If we can see where it is, we don't know how fast it is going, and if we can see how fast it is going, we don't know where it is, and so on.

multi-product strategy

Multi-product strategy is when a company sells more than one type of product. This means they make and sell different types of products instead of just having one type of product. For example, a store might sell cereal, milk, canned soup, and chips. This is a multi-product strategy because the store is selling a variety of products, instead of just selling one type of product. This can be a good strategy for companies because it can help them make more money, reach more customers, and appeal to different tastes.

I think it’s talking about smaller businesses more. Like, the people who make towels should sell blankets too, because, once everyone buys towels, they won’t want to buy more for awhile. They won’t need them.

Black holes


Black holes are like really big vacuum cleaners in outer space. Imagine the longest vacuum cleaner hose you can think of – way longer than your mom’s vacuum cleaner – with a giant vacuum cleaner at the end. That giant vacuum cleaner sucks up everything nearby, like pieces of dust and stars and planets, and it all gets sucked into the black hole. Nothing can escape from a black hole. That's why it's called a black hole - because even light can't get out!
