Black Hole Apocalypse | How to Detect Gravitational Waves

Learn about gravitational waves and how they can be detected in this video from NOVA: Black Hole Apocalypse. Use this resource to visualize abstract concepts related to waves and wave interactions and to provide opportunities for students to develop and use models and to communicate explanations wit

How a wave is created

Winds cause water particles to move in a circular motion. In the process, they pass the energy on to the next particle, which in turn passes it on to the next. This is how the wave motion continues.

The Relationship Between Clouds and Atmospheric Waves

For more Science Videos: https://lt.org/ * Our planet’s cloudiness has been heretofore understood as being controlled by the slowly varying, large scale, atmospheric circulation known as the Hadley cell. In this video, CLAUDIA STEPHAN argues that this model is overly simplistic. * Bringing recent me

Making Boats Fly

Learn how advances in technology allow boats to go faster than ever before in this video from NOVA: “Making Stuff Faster.” Host and technology columnist David Pogue examines two factors that limit speed—energy and resistance—and describes how Oracle Team USA maximizes the speed of its boat. Instead
