I watched this guy diving under the ice for a good half hour, and was quite impressed with his technique.
Best Physics Tuition is founded to enable students to achieve excellence in Physics. It also has the mission to enlighten all to the workings of the universe, environment and self.

"To see the nucleus, we would have to blow up the atom to the size of the biggest dome in the world, the dome of St. Peter's Cathedral in Rome. In an atom that size, the nucleus would be the size of a grain of salt! A grain of salt in the middle of the dome of St. Peter's, and specks of dust whirling around it in the vast space of the dome-- this is how we can picture the nucleus and electrons of an atom."
From Frithof Capra's The Tao of Physics.

Feel the Tension
natural
This is a picture of a suspension bridge, which relies on many physics rules in order to allow cars and trucks to pass safely from one side to another. To the human eye, this bridge does not move as cars and trucks pass over it, but these enormous cables are basically the only mode of keeping the bridge intact. These cables are able to hold up this bridge and in turn, the vehicles, because there is enough tension in the cables in order to create zero net force, and therefore no movement. Usually, there are two towers in the middle of the bridge connected by cables which provide a force pulling the towers inward. There are also cables mounted on the outside of these towers that serve to counteract the inward force. The cables also provide a force to counteract the weight of the bridge and the cars moving over it. All of these forces oppose each other, creating no net force! If there happened to be a net force, the bridge would move and be too unstable for travel with the weight of the cars and the bridge itself providing force.
In this example, Ultra-Tangibles simulates physics on real objects placed on the interactive surface.
