  2. Screaming jelly babies - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Screaming_jelly_babies

    The experiment is practised in schools around the world and is often used at open evenings to show the more engaging and entertaining aspects of science in secondary education settings. [2] [3] The experiment shows the amount of energy there is in a piece of candy. Jelly babies [4] or gummy bears [5] are often used for theatrics.

    James Joule was born in 1818, the son of Benjamin Joule (1784–1858), a wealthy brewer, and his wife, Alice Prescott, on New Bailey Street in Salford. [3] Joule was tutored as a young man by the famous scientist John Dalton and was strongly influenced by chemist William Henry and Manchester engineers Peter Ewart and Eaton Hodgkinson.

  4. Soda geyser - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soda_geyser

    A soda geyser is a physical reaction between a carbonated beverage, usually Diet Coke, and Mentos mints that causes the beverage to be expelled from its container. The candies catalyze the release of gas from the beverage, which creates an eruption that pushes most of the liquid up and out of the bottle.

    The Raizen Group demonstrated significant cooling of atoms with the one-way wall in a series of experiments in 2008. Subsequently, the operation of a one-way wall for atoms was demonstrated by Daniel Steck and collaborators later in 2008. Their experiment was based on the 2005 scheme for the one-way wall, and was not used for cooling.

  6. Mechanical equivalent of heat - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mechanical_equivalent_of_heat

    In the history of science, the mechanical equivalent of heat states that motion and heat are mutually interchangeable and that in every case, a given amount of work would generate the same amount of heat, provided the work done is totally converted to heat energy. The mechanical equivalent of heat was a concept that had an important part in the ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rüchardt_Experiment

    The Rüchardt experiment, [1] [2] [3] invented by Eduard Rüchardt, is a famous experiment in thermodynamics, which determines the ratio of the molar heat capacities of a gas, i.e. the ratio of (heat capacity at constant pressure) and (heat capacity at constant volume) and is denoted by (gamma, for ideal gas) or (kappa, isentropic exponent, for real gas).

    Tyndall's illustration of the experiment. Pictet's experiment is the demonstration of the reflection of heat and the apparent reflection of cold in a series of experiments [1] performed in 1790 (reported in English in 1791 in An Essay on Fire [2]) by Marc-Auguste Pictet—ten years before the discovery of infrared heating of the Earth by the Sun. [3] The apparatus for most of the experiments ...
