How does a parachute work? Why do people wear them when they go parachuting?
When the parachute opens, the air resistance is greater than the gravity. This slows the person down and allows them to land safely.
Is your weight the same in every planet of our Solar System? How about your mass?
Your weight is different, because it depends on the gravity. Your mass is the same!
Can water surface tension support our weight?
No! It can only support a little bit of weight.
True or False. Water has a skin that allows insects to stand on the water.
False! Water doesn't have skin. It has surface tension.
What is a friction burn?
Burns caused by friction working at high speeds.
How does friction cause heat?
When surfaces get rubbed together, the molecules start moving faster. This movement causes the material to get hotter.
Friction happens because most surfaces are completely smooth. True or false?
False! Most surfaces are not completely smooth. You just need a microscope to see it.
Give me two examples of friction in action!
.
What would happen if friction didn't exist.
We would all be slipping and sliding.
Why does rubbing your hands together warm them up?
friction!
