Article: While all cars can be modded, some are certainly easier to soup up than others. This is because car modders tend to have preferences for certain models over others, and more popular models will have a greater number of readymade options. Even a broken down beater can be souped up into something special if you have the money for it. If it's your first time pimping out a car however, you can make it easier on yourself by picking a mod-friendly vehicle to start with. Look online for some examples of your car model being modded. Some car models will come up with lots of results, while others will draw a blank. The number of results will probably give you an idea whether your car is seen as mod-friendly or not. Lowering suspension has the effect of making your car look more sleek and sportslike. This can be done at a car modification garage. Even a slight drop can have a big effect on the look of your vehicle. On the other hand, you can boost your suspension up for a more rugged look. This option is popular on trucks and SUVs. There is a safety concern involved in lowering your car's suspension. Although it may look cool, you'll be sacrificing some of your car's handling in the process. Keep this in mind if you are considering lowering suspension. A faster-looking car doesn't necessarily mean a better one. Spoilers are meant to give your car the visual impression that it's fast enough to need some aerodynamic support. Of course, for all except the fastest race cars, spoilers are just for show. Even so, many gearheads find the look of a spoiler very appealing on a car. Depending on how common the add-on is to your model, your mechanic specialist may be able to direct you to a spoiler specially suited to the car you want modded. A stereo system doesn't change your car's appearance in any significant way, but a new subwoofer will be felt. If you have the money to spend upgrading your car, giving your stereo a facelift will give your vehicle the soundtrack to boot. Best of all, you can be as cheap or expensive as you'd like with reinventing your sound system. A new pair of front speakers might only set you back $50, while a full-blown stereo system can cost you thousands of dollars. Bass isn't everything to a stereo system. A rich sound will give you more listening enjoyment than a rig with all its power on the bass end of the spectrum. Don't be inconsiderate by blasting your subwoofer in crowded areas. Hydraulics are a theatrical twist on your car. With hydraulics, you can boost your car's suspension and make it "dance". Hydraulics are a big part of car modder culture, and are preferred on vehicles with low suspension, called low-riders. If you want a playful trick to your car, take it to a garage and get this specialized suspension control installed. Hydraulic suspension is pricey, and many outside the car modding community associate it with gang culture. If you're in with a car modding community, you might try joining a car hydraulics "dance competition".

Gauge your car's modding potential. Lower your suspension. Add a spoiler onto the back of your car. Upgrade the stereo system. Give your car a hydraulics suspension rig.
Article: If you suspect that your dark knees are caused by dry skin, drink more water! In general, aim to consume at least 68 fluid ounces (2.0L) of water every day for healthy, glowing skin. If you don't see results from increasing your water intake, consider using a natural remedy or applying a moisturizer in addition to drinking water. If you've tried multiple methods to get rid of your dark knees but haven't had any results, make an appointment with a dermatologist. There, the doctor will be able to do tests and look at your knees to identify a likely cause for the dark skin in that area. Be sure to explain which methods you've used to try to get rid of your dark knees. Your doctor may be able to explain why your skin is darker in that area, and can offer more potent treatments for lightening the skin. Sometimes, individuals with undiagnosed or untreated diabetes will develop dark spots on their knees and shins. If you have spots that won't go away, visit your doctor to get tested for diabetes. This condition is called "diabetic dermopathy," and people often mistake these marks for age spots.

Increase your water intake to improve hydration. Visit a dermatologist to diagnose pigmentation issues or skin diseases. Get tested for diabetes if you have permanent dark spots on your knees.
Article: Newton's second law of motion states that force equals mass times acceleration: F = ma. If you know the net force on the object, and it's acceleration, you can rearrange this formula to find the mass: m = F / a. Force is measured in N (newton), which you can also write as (kg * m)/ s2. Acceleration is measured in m/s2. When you calculate F / a, the units cancel to give you an answer in kilograms (kg). Mass is the amount of matter in an object; this does not change unless you cut off part of the object, or attach more material. Weight is a measurement of gravity's effect on mass. If you move the object to an area with different gravity (such as from the earth to the moon), it's weight will change, but it's mass will not. An object with more mass does weigh more than an object with less mass, if they're experiencing the same gravity. . If you're doing your chemistry homework, you may come across the term "molar mass." This is a related concept, but instead of measuring an object, you measure exactly one mole of a substance. Here's how to calculate it in most contexts: For an element: look up the atomic mass of the element or compound you are measuring. This will be in "atomic mass units" (amu). Multiply by the molar mass constant, 1 g/mol, to put it into standard molar mass units: g/mol. For a compound: add the atomic masses of each atom in the compound to find the total amu of the molecule. Multiply this total by 1 g/mol.
