FUN FACTS ABOUT PHYSICS

 

1. Saturn can float on water like ice

Saturn is a huge planet, the second largest among the eight planets in the solar system. Saturn has a density of less than that of water, around 0.7 g/cc, whereas the density of water is 1 g/cc. According to the theories of flotation, a substance which is less density than liquid floats in that liquid. So, Saturn might literally float on water.

2. Water can boil and freeze at the same temperature

Water may boil or freeze at the same temperature. The temperature and the value of the pressure correspond to a point known as a triple point. At this point, the three phases, liquid, ice and water vapor coexist which means that the water can boil and freeze at the same temperature.

3. The sun doesn’t change color during sunset

The sun doesn’t change color during sunset, this is because the wavelengths of the sun react with the difference in the atmosphere.
