Cathode rays, as we now know, are streams of electrons generated by high electric field-induced gas ionization (old cold cathode ray tubes) or heat-induced […]
Young’s interference experiment, also known as Young’s double-slit experiment, was the original version of the modern double-slit experiment performed by Thomas Young in 1803. […]
Here is an amazing video depicting the various branches of mathematics!
A cool little cube that can balance itself, jump up and “walk”! But how does it do these tricks, and what is the physics […]
It is more appropriate to call this an electromagnetic train, rather than electric train. How does it work? The “train” moves because of the […]
In physics, sound is a mechanical wave of pressure and displacement (vibration) that propagates through a medium, such as air, water or a solid. It may […]
In physics, interference refers to the phenomenon in which two waves superpose onto each other, resulting in a wave of greater, lower, or the […]
Here is a simulation that helps you to visualise the nature of “temperature”, and what it really means when an object is hot (high […]
The idea of materials being made of “atoms” was proposed long before we had the technologies to look into any materials. But how did […]
A blackbody is an object that absorbs all incoming light without reflecting any, thus appearing black at room temperature (hence the term blackbody). However, […]
