Isn't It Time For the Metric System To Stop Going Around In Circles? -
 - Philip Yaffe (807)  
Growing up in the United States in the 1950s, I was used to such things as inches, feet, yards; ounces (liquid and solid), pints, pounds, etc. Then I entered my first physics class and was bowled over by the metric system.
"My God, this is so much better! Why don't we use this?" I... ( added 1 year 105 days ago.) |
Black Holes, Super Colliders And The Bible -
- Joel Hendon (18,637)
Joel Hendon
Black Holes, dark energy, big bangs, and the like are ideas which come into scientific minds when they don't have a clue what is causing, whatever they see happening. I'm sure that the wheels in many of their brains become so absorbed with these phenomena that they lose lots of sleep at night.... ( added 1 year 222 days ago.) |

Super Collider Extraordinary, Doomsday Machine? -
- Joel Hendon (18,637)
Joel Hendon
My limited knowledge of physics causes me to rely greatly on others with much greater knowledge. Studies of atom splitting and atom fusing has been going on for almost a century now. It was such a tedious and complex study that it took years of ingenious mathematical computations to master the... ( added 1 year 236 days ago.) |
What is Gravity and Why Does it Work? -
Burt Jordaan (64) 
Burt Jordaan
Even today, gravity is still a mysterious force, if it is a force at all. We all know the effects of gravity and how difficult it is to work against it. Think about climbing a long staircase. What is it that tries to pull you down? Obviously it is the mass of Earth, but how does mass accomplish... ( added 2 years 127 days ago.) |
Some Like it Hot - Some Like Physics, how Come? -
Thomas Oestereich (44)   
Thomas Oestereich
If you think about it, physics is at the root of many human activities. Nevertheless, it is obvious that the majority of people don't like it and keep away, actually: This seems to be the normal way to feel towards this subject. This includes many people who usually are very motivated to get... ( added 2 years 324 days ago.) |
E=mc2 is Wrong - Einstein's Special Relativity Fundamentally Flawed -
mike strauss (68)
In 1905, Albert Einstein published 'On the Electrodynamics of Moving
Bodies' now known as Special Relativity this theory revolutionized

Sophus’ choice: Redefining the role of Ancient Greek scholars in modern society -
altspace (217) 
It is known by most high school students that Ancient Greek scholars were very adept in philosophy (from ‘ philos ’ and ‘ sophos ’), math (geometry), debates, and music. They depicted the universe as a set of harmonious arrangement of circles (the most idealistic shape in their mind). ( added 4 years 331 days ago.) |
Transducers -
Thomas Yoon (4,639)

Cooling Towers - Workhorses of Industries -
Thomas Yoon (4,639)
Thomas Yoon
Industrial Processes usually produces a lot of heat. Air-conditioning also removes heat from the indoor areas through heat exchangers.
Where does all the heat go?
All these heat has to be removed. If you are not near the sea, you have to use cooling towers to cool down your warm water.

Boiler Water Chemical Treatment -
Thomas Yoon (4,639)
Thomas Yoon
A boiler is used for generating steam. It does this by heating water to its boiling point, after which steam will evaporate from it.
When you boil a kettle of water, you will shut off the fire or electric power when the water comes to a boil.
No so with a steam boiler. Generation of steam... ( added 4 years 354 days ago.) |
Boiler Manhole Safety -
Thomas Yoon (4,639)
Thomas Yoon
Boiler inspections are necessary in order to find out the effectiveness of the boiler water chemical treatment. It is also useful to detect any faults or potential weakness in the steel structures, plates and shells so that accidents can be avoided.
However, even entering the boiler for... ( added 4 years 354 days ago.) |
Boiler Inspection -
Thomas Yoon (4,639)
Thomas Yoon
A steam boiler is a pressure vessel with a difference. The vessel is subjected to heat stress of expansion and contraction, internal and external corrosion, as well as intense heating on some of its surfaces.
If we are not careful, the steam pressure can rise up very high, and it can become a... ( added 4 years 354 days ago.) |
Flashover! Saving Firefighter Ryan -
Louis Angeli (209)
Wilmington, DE -- July 21, 2004 -- Flashover! Even though firefighters are beginning to understand it, this fatal phenomenon is still shrouded in a veil of mystery.

Causality, Explanation, and Deductions of Predictions -
- An Imagineer (0)
Sometimes it can be just as important to understand what makes a theory valid, as it is to understand what it predicts. This may be why we found Karl Poppers book " The Logic of Scientific Discovery " so interesting because he describes how the advance and growth of science rests on a doctrine...

In the beginning -
Ben Morrish (7,929)   
Ben Morrish
In the Beginning there was the Universe. Before that time didn't exist
so "before that" doesn't have any meaning. The universe consisted of
simple rules, and energy which obeyed them (indeed the rules and the
energy are the same thing in a sense, each can only exist with the
other and each is... ( added 1 year 224 days ago.) |
