WXMI — In our science experiment today, we look at a disappearing coin trick, which really is no trick at all. It illustrates density and refraction. Some things are more dense (or heavier) than other ...
Scientists have ample evidence to prove the Earth is a sphere. But some social media users claim to have devised an experiment showing the earth is flat. The post shows a green laser beam projected ...
We report on experimental and numerical implementations of devices based on the negative refraction of elastic guided waves, the so-called Lamb waves. Consisting in plates of varying thickness, these ...
When it comes to light, certain types of fabricated materials behave in a radically different manner from ordinary materials like water and glass: they have negative refractive indices, so that light ...
There are different ways to investigate refraction in rectangular blocks. In this required practical activity, it is important to: make, measure and record the angles of incidence accurately using a ...
Processes in the X-ray interferometer: The path of a single photon (pink) passes through two slits simultaneously and spreads out behind them into a characteristic “interference pattern”. This pattern ...
FORT WAYNE, Ind. (WANE) A gloomy day can’t keep science away! Science Central’s Martin Fischer joins NewsChannel 15 to demonstrate experiments focused on light. Fisher showed two simple experiments ...
