Magic Butterfly !

Articles Required : A thin cardboard sheet, two small coins, adhesive tape, one broom-straw. What about having a 'magic but­terfly' that can sit on your fingertip without any support? Try making it today itself because it's very simple. First of all, cut out a cardboard piece in the shape of a butterfly. Now paste a white paper on it and paint in pretty 'butterfly' colours. Now paste a coin each under butter­fly's two wings as shown in the fig­ure. Also paste the broom straw right in its centre with its ends pro­truding a little from its mouth and tail. Well, your 'magic' butterfly is ready. If the coins have been pasted in such a way that its centre of grav­ity falls on the top of its head, it can be balanced on the tip of your fore­finger very easily to enchant every­body present around you.

Fooling Your Brain with a Mirror

Aim: To prove that what we see is often affected by what we expect to see with the help of the mirror image experiment. Materials required: 1. Mirrors – 2 in number, square in shape, 12 inches (30 cm) a side, could be either made out of plastic or glass. 2. Epoxy glue and duct tapes. 3. Wooden dowels – 2 in number with diameter as 1 inch (2.5 cm) and 12 inches (30 cm) long. Procedure: 1.      Stick the mirrors together by pasting their backs. If you have a glass mirror then for safety, tape their edges using the duct tapes to seal the sharp edges. Take the two wooden dowels and paste them right in the centre of the mirrors vertically. 2.      Hold the dowels with each hand and as you look at one side of the mirror move the hand which is on the other side. What do you actually see? What happens? Your brain expects the image in the mirror to move as it is fooled to believe that the image it sees is actually your othe...

Make Clouds in a Bottle

As you would know, a cloud is a visible aggregate of minute water or ice particles suspended in air.  Clouds form when warm rising air and water vapor pools, cools, and condense.  The possible reasons why this happens could be one or more of the following:  (1) warming of the air at the earth's surface (convection) (2) air cooling as it expands, such as when wind encounters a mountain and moves up side (3) activity at a front or low pressure system (4) air expanding and cooling, such as when the rising air is exposed to lower pressure. However, cool air cannot support as much moisture as warm air. Therefore warm air that is rising will cool and reach a point whereby its relative humidity is 100%.  It is at this point that moisture begins to condense onto the surface of particles in the atmosphere, such as tiny dust particles, soot, salt, and sulfate. These particles act as cloud condensation nuclei (CCN).  This is all the background informatio...
