Can we use static electricity to light a bulb?I recently saw a video of two students holding a light bulb in one hand while rubbing their other hands to their clothes and when their hands touched the light bulb start glowing how is this poss...
centripetal force question?A 200 g ball on the end of a string is rotated in a horizontal circle of radius 10 m. The ball completes 10 rotations in 5 s. What is the centripetal force of the string on the ball?...
does a rocket go faster when it is reaching the skys edge or when it is taking off from the ground on liftoff?its raw speed and/or acceleration? skys edge near outer space is where there is lower gravity. think maybe a bottle cap...
