Rutherford Scattering

Rutherford Scattering

Discovery of nuclei At the beginning of the 20th century, little was known about atoms’ structure, except that atoms contain electrons. At the time, the atom was thought to be as a model of pudding containing raisins. According to this … more

Sum of Exterior Angle

Sum of Exterior Angle

Polygonal Exterior Angle Imagine drawing a polygon with a pencil. While drawing a straight line with a pencil, We change the direction at the vertex. The size of the angle changing direction at the vertex becomes ‘exterior angle.’ If you … more

Psychrometer(hygrometry)

Psychrometer(hygrometer)

hygrometer It is a simple device that allows you to determine the humidity by measuring the difference in how much water evaporates. Compared to a simple structure, humidity can be measured relatively accurately. Before electronic hygrometers became popular, psychrometers were … more

Addition of Force

Addition of Force 2

Three elements of force When a force acts on an object, the object’s motion varies depending on the Three elements of force. That is the magnitude, direction, and point of action. Therefore, when displaying a force, you must indicate the … more

Circumference of a Circle

Circumference of a Circle

How to find out the circumference of a circle Let’s draw a regular polygon (inscribed polygon and circumscribed polygon) surrounding a circle. The perimeter of an inscribed polygon is less than the perimeter of the circle, and the perimeter of … more

Pythagorean Theorem

Pythagorean Theorem

Pythagorean theorem Assuming that the three sides of a right triangle are a, b, c, and the longest side is c, the Pythagorean theorem is that the equation a²+b²=c² is always true. The equation a²+b²=c² represents three squares created using … more

Flame Test Simulation

Flame Test

* This simulation take the spectral data from NATIONAL INSTITUTE OF STANDARDS AND TECHNOLOGY. When heat is applied to the atoms, some electrons can have high energy levels and fall to the lower levels. Some electrons emit as much energy … more

Area of Circle

Area of Circle

How to calculate the area of a circle If you cut the circles and stick them together, they gradually become more rectangular. In this rectangle, the width is half of the circumference, and the height is the radius. Therefore, The … more
