  Physics Tip


Viscosity
The property of a liquid that makes it resist flow or any change in the arrangement of its molecules. The higher the viscosity, the "thicker" a liquid seems.
 

  Physics Quote

Friction with the air is often neglected, but when traveling at Mach 18 it becomes a huge factor. To cope with this, NASA engineers have ingeniously developed sand-based thermal tiles that are designed to withstand temperatures that can reach up to 2600 degrees Fahrenheit...

What lies on the other side of a black hole? If someone foolishly fell into a black hole, will they be crushed by its immense gravity, as most physicists believe, or will they be propelled into a parallel universe or emerge in another time era? To solve this complex question...
