Explore the fascinating science of air temperature change in this video! We calculate how the volume of inhaled air increases as it warms from 0.0°C to body temperature. Discover the principles of thermal expansion in the human body.
Adding Water to a Glass: Temperature Change Calculation
Want To Learn More? To watch the entire video and ALL of the videos in the series:
Watch as we explore the fascinating world of thermal expansion in this video. We start with a glass filled to the brim with 350.0 mL of water at a scorching 100.0°C, and then witness the magic unfold as the temperature decreases to a cool 20.0°C. But the real question is, how much more water can we add to the glass? Join us to find out!
Gravitational Force on the Sun: Earth's Seasonal Variations
Want To Learn More? To watch the entire video and ALL of the videos in the series:
Explore the intriguing interplay of Earth's elliptical orbit, the changing seasons, and the gravitational forces it exerts on the Sun. We'll provide insights into the ratio of these forces and challenge you to consider multiple perspectives on this celestial phenomenon.
hysics of a Coin Drop in an Ascending Elevator
Want To Learn More? To watch the entire video and ALL of the videos in the series:
In an elevator ascending, an occupant drops a coin, which accelerates at a different rate than expected. This reveals the elevator's own acceleration towards the Earth. By analyzing forces and tensions, we determine the cable's tension to be 16000 N.
Calculating Object and Oil Density through Buoyancy
