Bohren\u003c\/b\u003e (Author)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEver wonder why steam rises from a bowl of hot soup or why a greenhouse retains heat? And have you ever puzzled over the real meaning of once in a blue moon or why sand is darker when it's wet than when it's dry? And just why, exactly, do bubbles appear in a glass of beer when you add salt to it?\u003cbr\u003eThese and many other baffling questions are answered in this engaging book by a physics professor at Pennsylvania State University. Ranging from playful to serious, Professor Bohren's lively and entertaining discussions employ a liberal mixture of humor and anecdote to debunk a host of scientific myths and render science lessons thoroughly understandable. Chapters include On a Clear Day You \u003ci\u003eCan't\u003c\/i\u003e See Forever, A Murder in Ceylon. The Green Flash, Physics on a Manure Heap, Indoor Rainbows, and Multiple Scattering at the Breakfast Table.\u003cbr\u003eThe book rings with a unifying tone: the science of the everyday physical world is fun. And so is the book, writes Jearl Walker, a member of the Physics Department at Cleveland State University. Beginning physics and general readers will be fascinated by the scientific knowledge gained from this work; and science teachers will find it a treasure trove of ideas for simple, vivid classroom demonstrations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 224\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.46 x 9.38 x 6.14 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e July 10, 2001\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47656827781341,"sku":"9780486417387","price":17.94,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0811\/9867\/8237\/files\/bGV1MkNOeEFVaFAweE04eTQrYzZWZz09_f62164d2-6b69-477a-8326-08de8525eaf8.webp?v=1773900052","url":"https:\/\/handfulofbooks.com\/products\/clouds-in-a-glass-of-beer-simple-experiments-in-atmospheric-physics-paperback-1","provider":"Handful of Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
