How do rockets rotate?

How do rockets rotate? In flight, any rocket will rotate about its center of gravity, a point which is the average location of the mass of the rocket. Most rockets are symmetric about a line from the tip of the nose to the center of the nozzle exit. We will call this line the roll […]

Why do bats die near wind turbines?

Why do bats die near wind turbines? When a wind turbine’s blades move, they cause a drop in nearby air pressure. If a bat flies too close to a turbine, this drop in air pressure can damage its lungs. They found that each wind turbine kills around 5 birds and 12 bats every year! How […]

What happens to torque if field is non-uniform?

What happens to torque if field is non-uniform? An electric dipole always experiences a torque when placed in uniform as well as non-uniform electric field. But in non-uniform electric field, dipole will also experience net force of attraction. So the electric dipole in non-uniform electric field experiences both torque and force. What is meant by […]

Is work done and kinetic energy Same?

Is work done and kinetic energy Same? In other words, the work done is equal to the change in K.E. of the object! This is the Work-Energy theorem or the relation between Kinetic energy and Work done. In other words, the work done on an object is the change in its kinetic energy. W = […]

What is the thinnest liquid?

What is the thinnest liquid? Thanks to the “super material” graphene, a team of researchers managed to create one of the world’s thinnest layers of liquid. There’s now a new understanding of the word “wet” thanks to physicists who created the thinnest film of liquid ever. What is a viscous sauce? A sauce that runs […]

How often does the jet stream shift?

How often does the jet stream shift? This movement creates an air current, or wind. A jet stream is a type of air current that forms high in the atmosphere. On average, jet streams move at about 110 miles per hour. Why do waters sink in the North Atlantic? Water flowing northward becomes modified through […]
