Ever wonder why the sky is blue or why most plants happen to be green? Or why stomach acid doesn't dissolve your stomach, or why there are more tornados in the Midwest than along either coast?The Complete Idiot's Guide to the Science of Everything answers these questions and many, many more, shedding light on the science behind more than 200 intriguing questions, educating readers on the fundamentals of science in the process. In a book that is as informative as it is entertaining, readers learn about every major branch of science, including: Physics (Why do figure skaters spin faster when they pull their arms in?) Chemistry (How does salt melt ice?) Biology (How does a chameleon change its colour?) Geology (Why do so many earthquakes occur along the Pacific coast?) Meteorology (Why does the jet stream flow from west to east in North America?) Astronomy (What causes Jupiter's big red spot?) Cosmology (Do black holes really exist and can anything escape them?)In addition, the book highlights some of the really big ideas that helped shape science as we know it today, and discusses the future of science with cutting edge topics such as nanotechnology, genetic modification, molecular medicine, and string theory. This book also makes an ideal easy-to-read science teaching resource for primary school teachers.Author: Steve MillerTitle: The Complete Idiot's Guide to the Science of EverythingFormat: Paperback, 400 pagesPublished: 06/11/2008 by Dorling Kingsley

This kit has been specially designed to help you learn and explore the abundant power of Solar Energy - the clean energy of the future. Solar cells, or Photovoltaic cells are finding their way into thousands of uses worldwide - from satellites to cars, and even to emergency phone boxes on highways. The Solar Science Kit is an economical introduction to photovoltaics, turning light into electricity, also known as PV. Simply, connect the 2 wires of the motor to the PV cell and watch light energy power the electric motor. Connect the motor to the included disc with diffraction foil for a sparkling visual display as the disc spins and reflects light. An informative Solar Info Sheet is included, packed with science project ideas and fun facts. Age: 9+ What you get Solar Science Kit, including a Solar Cell (Photovoltaic Cell), Disc with Diffraction Foil, Motor, and Instruction Sheet. How does it work? Photovoltaic means light to electricity. The solar panel, or PV cell in this kit converts light energy from the sun into electrical energy. If it is an overcast day, bright artificial lights can be used as a substitute light source. The electric energy created by the solar panel powers the motor, and the motor, in turn, spins the diffraction foil disc for a colourful visual display you'll love. This exciting kit helps you explore various questions about solar power and electricity, such as: How can energy be transformed from light to electricity to motion? What direct uses are there for a PV module and motor? (water pumping and ventilation) How can PV energy be stored? Can PV energy be used to charge batteries? How? Is there a relationship between light and heat? Is solar energy available during cloudy weather? Teach Solar power Photovoltaic Energy transformations Clean sources of energy WARNING: CHOKING HAZARD - Small Parts. Not for children under 3 years.
