- Light waves don’t always move in straight lines: It is generally believed that light waves only move in straight lines. However, as per the recent research in 2010 using computer-controlled hologram, it has been proved that light, too, can get twisted into knots.
- Human radiations:
As per the recent studies and discoveries in the field of Physics, a nude human body constantly radiates around 1000 watts of heat and absorbs about 900 watts. However, once the person covers his body with clothes, the outflow of the heat flux reduces considerably due to the exterior barrier. The amount of heat outflow from the human body is more than enough in lightning up a 100 watt bulb for some time.
- Air current:
The speed of wind near the surface of ocean is much lower than what is observed in the higher altitudes. The reason can be attributed to the friction it receives from the water surface. It is due to this reason that most birds fly at a higher altitude.
- The universe is a Computer:
On the basis of a paper published by a professor in MIT, the Universe is equivalent to a computer. The figure is roughly equal to 10^120 bits. The number was calculated by him on the basis of the amount of information that can be stored in a volume just before it adopts the properties of a black hole.
- The world's densest wood, the Black Ironwood (Olea laurifolia), does not float on water and therefore sinks.
- The mass of our entire atmosphere is estimated to be some 5.5 quadrillion tons (55 followed by 14 zeros).
- The diameter of a proton is approximately 0.000000000001 mm (1/25,000,000,000,000 inch).
- The Inconsistent Light: We are always told to be as fast as light. Well here is answer for all those who hate being told that. Light travels fast only in a vacuum. It is slowed whenever it passes through something, being measured as traveling as slowly as just 38 miles per hour at absolute zero (-273.15C) through ultra-cooled rubidium.
- The Shining Angle
Sunlight reflects off the water at the same angle it shines on it.
