Density corresponds to the mass of an object in relation to its volume. If an object is less dense than water, it floats; if it...
Crystals naturally exhibit some pretty cool electrical characteristics, particularly due to their organized atomic structure. In simple terms, their atoms are nicely arranged in regular...
A magnetic material is made up of small groups called magnetic domains, each acting like a mini-magnet with a specific orientation. When all the domains...
When a ball hits a hard surface, it bounces more because almost all the energy is directly returned to the ball, with less loss. In...
