‘Work’ in science
‘Work’ in science ‘Work’ in science and ‘work’ in everyday life is a little different. In science, ‘work’ is to apply a force to an object and move it in the force’s direction. In the following cases, It is said … more
Phase of the Moon 2
It is only the sun that shines by itself in the solar system. Earth and moon do not emit light themselves. The earth and the moon only reflect the light of the sun. Since the earth and the moon have … more
Homopolar Motor
Assuming that the current flowing in the wire is in the X-direction, the magnetic field is in the Y direction. Then, what direction is the electromagnetic force? ‘Homopolar motor’ refers to a motor operated by using only one polarity of … more
DNA electrophoresis
This simulation assumes that the loading dye is 50bp and the marker is 50bp. (‘bp’ is a unit showing the number of base pairs of DNA.) Electrophoresis Electrophoresis is a chemical phenomenon in which an electric charge in a solution … more
Coriolis Effect
Coriolis effect The French mathematician Coriolis first explained that the direction of fluid movement on the Earth’s surface is slightly warped. You can observe this effect in all spinning places like Earth. The Coriolis effect causes the following: 1. In … more
Cochlear and Audible Frequency
The sensing part is slightly different depending on the frequency of sound. Move the slide bar to check. Cochlear Inside our ears, there is a sensory organ that senses sound. The overall shape resembles a snail called ‘cochlear.’ The cochlea … more
Weather front and temperate cyclone
You can drag the screen to rotate it. Temperate cyclone (also known as Extra-tropical cyclone) The temperate zone is where the north’s cold air mass meets the south’s warm air mass. When two different chunks of air meet, they cannot … more
The principle of air conditioner and refrigerator
The air conditioner The air conditioner is based on ‘evaporative heat'(a phenomenon that absorbs the surrounding heat when the liquid evaporates). The indoor unit suddenly expands the compressed refrigerant through a narrow hole. Then, the refrigerant evaporates into the gas … more
Atmosphere
Altitude-temperature data is based on ISA(International Standard Atmosphere). Values other than the data were obtained using spline interpolation. Altitude(km) Air Temperature(℃) 0 15 4 -11 8 -37 12 -56.5 20 -56.5 30 -46.5 40 -22 50 -2.5 60 -26 70 … more
Covalent Bond
What is Covalent Bond? The covalent bond is a bond formed by atoms. Each atom creates an electron pair and shares it. Because each other’s electrons are shared in pairs, the number of electrons involved in sharing is always even. … more
The Air Pressure and Wind
If you fill the Coriolis effect 100%, the actual wind on the surface of Earth will appear. High atmospheric pressure and low atmospheric pressure The cause of wind blowing is the difference in air pressure. A high-pressure system has higher … more
