Heat flows from hot to cold objects. When a hot and a cold body are in thermal contact, they exchange heat energy until they reach thermal equilibrium, with the hot body cooling down and the cold body ...

COLUMBIA, S.C. — We have two holidays to celebrate this week - Saint Patrick’s Day and the start of spring. Today’s experiment ties in both of those holidays. The experiment, sometimes called "walking ...

Every winter when outdoor temperatures plunge, the 'boiling water experiment' takes over social media. Here are some simple common-sense tips to keep in mind to minimize your risk of getting burned in ...

Researchers from Singapore have developed a clever way to turn raindrops into electricity – enough to power 12 LEDs for 20 seconds using nothing more than a small vertical tube and some carefully ...

Adam Sherwinski teaches ciLiving host, Jaclyn Friedlander about light refraction. Watch how light bends when it passes through water in this fun and easy science experiment! In this video, we explore ...

We describe electricity as a flow, but that’s not what happens in a typical wire. Physicists have begun to induce electrons to act like fluids, an effort that could illuminate new ways of thinking ...

Designed by a team of flow chemists and engineers, the FlowSyn Multi-X is based upon the FlowSyn, a continuous flow reactor for reaction optimization. The FlowSyn Multi-X uses a FlowSyn control ...

Researchers have created metallic water for the first time. Through a very careful experimental setup, the team grew a thin layer of a gold-colored metallic water on the outside of a droplet of liquid ...
