Magnetic Levitation and Its Applications to High Speed Or Maglev Trains (Popularity:  )
Magnetic Levitation trains are super fast trains. In this Article, we will try to explain the Levitation phenomenon in applications to High Speed Trains.
How does a Magnetic Levitation Train work? Instead of running on electricity or diesel, it runs on powerful magnets. Magnets move these trains at high speed. The magnet creates a powerful magnetic field and this field moves the train forward. Instead of riding on the rails, the ...

Neuroscience: What is Brain Plasticity? (Popularity: )
http://www.aipc.net.au
Neuroscience has changed considerably in the past 20 years. An example of change over period is the concept of brain plasticity. Brain plasticity refers to the brain's ability to rewire itself, relocating information processing functions to different brain areas and/or neural networks. Two decades ago, it was believed that brain networks were static after its initial formation period. Now that belief has changed. The study of brain plasticity has profound ...

How are electricity and magnetism created?
Electricity has a direct relation to magnetism.
Both phenomena have their origin in the positive and negative charges of atoms.
Atoms maintain a neutral charge when in a static or calm state. In this case, the positively charged protons and negatively charged neutrons appear in the same number in atoms and their combined forces are balanced.
With the addition of energy, atoms can either release or ...

Probing Into New Science Experiences - Computers, Probeware, Displacement, Fun, and Science Learning (Popularity: )
http://www.ed-tech-4-science.com
When we add technology to our repertoire of science activities, the best uses are for areas that allow students to do things that they could not do before. A simulation that allows students to explore falling objects with different forces of gravity, like Adaptive Curriculum's "Free Fall", extends learning beyond the walls of a classroom.
In a similar way, the best probeware allows students to discover things beyond the ordinary science ...

Research in Social Sciences: Qualitative and Quantitative Methods (Popularity: )
Research in social sciences largely depends on measurements and analysis and interpretation of numerical as well as non numerical data. Quantitative research methods focus on statistical approaches and qualitative methods are based on content analysis, comparative analysis, grounded theory, and interpretation (Strauss, 1990). Quantitative methods emphasise on objective measurements and numerical analysis of data collected through polls, questionnaires or surveys and qualitative research focuses on understanding social phenomena through interviews, ...

Rubber types and starting materials for rubber manufacturing (Popularity: )
http://g-rubber.com/
Both rubber types (natural rubber and synthetic rubber) are high molecular compounds.
Natural rubber is derived from a milky colloidal suspension, or latex, found in the sap of some plants.
Synthetic rubber is made from pure monomers by polymerization or polycondensation. Due to manufacturing method rubbers are divided into polymerizing and polycondensating.
Main synthetic rubber types:
Isoprene, butadiene, butadiene-styrene and butadiene-methylstyrene, carboxylated, butadiene-methylvinylpyridine, butadiene-nitrile, chloroprene, ethylene-propylene, fluor rubbers and others.
Initial monomers for polymerization are ...

Simple Science Projects - Science Made Fun and Easy (Popularity: )
http://www.easy-kids-science-experiments.com
Simple science projects can be loads of fun and they stand just as much chance of winning a science fair as a more involved and complex project. The important thing to remember is that the judges want to see that you have learned something from your project, and are able to clearly explain what you did and what you found out.
You also need to display your project in an eye ...
