Expert Author: Joe Kanooga | Summary Chemistry sets from brands like Thames Kosmos, Scientific Explorer and Powertech provide children with hours of educational entertainment. The great thing about these sets is they provide all the chemicals and materials required to conduct the experiments. But what do you do when the chemicals have all been used? Doing well in HSC sciences requires a slightly different approach than HSC maths or English subjects. HSC sciences, like Chemistry, Physics and Biology, place a heavy focus on the syllabus. Detailed knowledge and familiarisation of the syllabus is very important. First we should say: do NOT cram if you have a choice. We do not recommend cramming as a sole solution to the HSC, as cramming definitely underperforms consistent study in the long run. However in life, unforeseen events happen and you may find yourself in a situation where you have only a few days, or even just 1 day, before a major exam. Expert Author: Amarendra Singh | Summary HSC Physics can be one of the most rewarding HSC subjects that is widely and commonly available across schools in NSW. HSC Physics tends to appeal to students with an interest for quantitative subjects like mathematics. In fact, if one is to try to define physics, it would be applied 2 unit maths. The mathematics in physics is certainly not difficult, but the problems in Physics are structured in terms of real-world applications. Expert Author: Ellen Bell | Summary How much do you know about industrial magnets? Did you know that many of the goods we use on a daily basis are produced in manufacturing facilities that utilize some type of industrial magnet? In this article, we'll explore some of the many uses of industrial magnets and the ways they are improving manufacturing processes every day. Expert Author: Lee D Harris | Summary The Hoover U8188900 Anniversary Wind Tunnel Bagged and Bagless Upright is nicely priced in the $200-$250 range. This machine utilizes Wind Tunnel Technology (semi cyclonic) and can be used as a bagged or bagless vacuum cleaner which makes it perfect for larger debris jobs as well as normal vacuuming. Expert Author: William J. Lund | Summary There is always something new happening in the world of science. In fact, there are so many new scientific discoveries and inventions, that it’s virtually impossible to stay abreast of all the new information. Here are a few really cool new inventions that are under development. Expert Author: Debra L. Morrison | Summary NASA launched spaceship Endeavour Friday night at 7:55pm EST and I was in Cape Canaveral, Florida to see it! It certainly did give me perspective looking out several thousand miles, seeing the ball of light called Endeavour slowly evaporate into outer space. We all bade the seven NASA astronauts "safe travels" and "come home safe"...those were the uniform wishes from all those gathered. Expert Author: Dave M Hill | Summary With our Planet, and our childrens future, going down the pan we need Alternative Energy Options and we need them Today. It may already be to late, but what will our kids, and their kids, think of us if we dont at least try? It must be today. Alternative Energy Sources have been examined for years now. Its about time we saw a significant announcement about the immediate implementation of Alternative Energy Options. Expert Author: Darlene Gremlek | Summary So who do you think built the pyramids of Egypt? Is it as the modern day archaeologists who have to answer to their Christian and Jewish
financiers and their Egyptian Muslim hosts say. That they were built by the hands of ancient Egyptians some 5,000 years ago. A huge job that would have required that a twenty ton block be set in place every three minutes for at least twenty years! Expert Author: Ellen Bell | Summary Magnetism was discovered thousands of years ago, and magnets have been used for many purposes ever since. However, there is a great deal of mystery and controversy surrounding the discovery of magnetism. We'll explore some of the various legends about magnets, including how they were discovered and some of their first uses. Expert Author: Ellen Bell | Summary Many of us know very little about magnets. We recall basic science experiments from elementary school, designed to teach us about the basics of magnetism. Some of us might recall that magnets have two poles. But for many people, we don't contemplate magnets in our daily lives, nor are we even aware of what a large role they play in our world. Newly, the Planetary Society called for main changes in US space exploration tactics. Distinctively, it suggested bypass the Moon in favour of Mars. The only scientists, Harrison Schmitt to have walked on the Moon resign from the society in complaint. Expert Author: Ellen Bell | Summary Did you know that magnets can actually help your health? Many of the incredible advances in modern medicine can be credited to the use of magnets. We'll explore some of the ways that magnet technology is improving the way we treat patients. Expert Author: Barb Luick | Summary The main research revolving around adult stem cells is that they have the ability to divide and self-renew indefinitely. This means that with the right research, adult stem cells could be used for all sorts of things. They are already more than valuable in research, particularly those which have cures that seem to be far away and hard to find. The adult stem cell, which has the ability to become any other type of cell in the body, might just be the greatest link between what is known about the human body, and what is not – and it might be the thing that helps researchers create a better life for all. Expert Author: Sean M. Clarke | Summary Human cloning is the creation of a genetically identical copy of a human being, human cell, or human tissue. The term is generally used to refer to artificial human cloning, although human clones in the form of identical twins are commonplace, with their cloning part of the natural process of reproduction. Expert Author: Skye Lanse | Summary India joined the international space race October 22, launching its first unmanned mission to the moon. The unmanned lunar orbiter is called Chandrayaan-1, which means ‘moon craft’ in ancient Sanskrit. Scientists clapped and cheered as Chandrayaan ascended from the Sriharikota space center in southern India. Indian Space Research Organization chairman G. Madhavan Nair said the purpose of the mission is to ‘unravel the mystery of the moon.’ In the realm of mortals, life may seem to be closing in on black and white. We lead our lives with the orientation that only the quantifiable, observable and overt are deemed to be true. However, in the realm of the endless, human beings are mere mortal creatures and truth is not a matter of great importance. It is a world where scary creatures lurk, ghosts and mummies cause mayhem, and humans are at the mercy of unfathomable paranormal events. Expert Author: Jeffrey A Solochek | Summary When I was growing up everybody had a TV with maybe 5 or 6 channels. There wasn't anything known as cable TV. At my house we got channels 4, 6, 10, 12 and 18. Later on we also got channel 17 which was Fox TV. I can remember when I first heard about HBO which was a box that only got you HBO and nothing else. That privelage would cost a household maybe $50. Expert Author: Aurora Lipper | Summary This article teaches kids about the Crystal Farming and gives a handful of totally fun activities to experiment with for their homeschool science learning (including rock candy and homemade geodes). It’s also good for boy scouts working on a badge, or for any kids that love science experiments. These experiments are part of a homeschool science program that I teach, and I promise your kids will love it.
