Liquid Water Aquatic Life
655 wordsWhat would the world be like if solid water was denser than liquid water? Density is a property of matter. It is defined as the amount of material that fits in a given space. Denser objects are naturally heavier than objects that are less dense and of the same size. In the same manner that solid objects have density, liquids also have density. In that connection, water is denser than oil. If two objects of different densities come into contact, then the one that is less dense will float on it. T...

Positively Charged Positive Charge
1,691 wordsLightning is a discharge of static electricity in the atmosphere, which causes a bright flash of light. When lighting goes through the air, it heats the air to degrees hotter than the suns surface about 50, 000 degrees fahrenheit. This heating causes the air to expand and contract. This causes the sound called thunder. Lightning is caused by a build up of negative ions in the atmosphere which discharges into the ground causing the negative ions to go with the positive ions in the ground. Static ...
