Building Science concepts through real experiences.
Air is a matter of substance, and hence it contains weight and other assets like density and pressure. Generally, the air surrounding us or objects does not show any pressure because it surrounds with equal pressure. In this science activity, we will observe that air shows its pressure when the…
Air is a mixture of many gases. The molecules of gases present in air have weak inter-molecular forces of attraction. Due to this reason these molecules lie far apart from each other i.e. there are large vacant spaces present between these molecules. So, these molecules are free to move in any direction.…
A steam engine is a heat engine that performs mechanical work using steam as its working fluid. The steam engine uses the force produced by steam pressure to push a piston back and forth inside a cylinder. This pushing force can be transformed, by a connecting rod and crank, into rotational force for work. The term “steam engine” is generally applied only to reciprocating engines as just described, not…
