Learning Made Easy
In physics, the terms work and energy have specific meanings that differ from how we commonly use them in our day-to-day lives. Daily activities like playing, pedaling a bicycle, or carrying a load are examples...
In physics, a physical quantity is anything that can be measured, and it falls into one of two categories: scalar and vector quantities. Scalars are defined solely by their magnitude, while vectors require both...
Mechanical Energy is the driving force behind every activity. In the world of physics, mechanical energy is categorized into two fascinating forms: potential and kinetic energy. The difference between potential and kinetic energy lies...
In chemistry, all types of changes can broadly be classified into physical and chemical changes. In this post, we will learn about the difference between physical and chemical changes with examples- The characteristics of...
In Physics, we define energy as the ability or capacity to do work. As per the law of conservation of energy, – energy can neither be created nor destroyed however, it can be changed...
The Rutherford atomic model transformed the scientific understanding of the atom. Ernest Rutherford developed it in 1911 through his revolutionary gold foil experiment, also known as the alpha particle scattering experiment. By bombarding a...
Some basic physical and chemical properties of metals that differentiate them from non-metals and metalloids are as follows: Physical Properties of Metals: Usually, metals are hard, opaque, possess luster, and conduct heat and electricity....
The difference between non-living and dead depends on whether something has ever experienced life or not. Here’s a simplified explanation: Dead things once lived, went through a life cycle, and displayed life characteristics. For...
When an object’s position changes with time, we say it is in motion. Different objects have different types of motion. For example, a train moves straight along its track, a fan rotates around its axis, and...
In my earlier post Elements and Compounds, we learned that scientists have discovered a total of 118 elements so far. Among them: 94 elements are metals, 17 are nonmetals, and the remaining 7 elements...
