Is Air a matter?

Is Air a matter?

What is matter?

Anything that has mass and occupies space is called matter.

Proving Air has mass?

Experiments that can demonstrate that air has weight:

Balloon balance

Inflate two balloons to the same size and tie them to opposite ends of a balance's lever. The balloons will hang at the same height. Then, pop one of the balloons. The lever will tilt towards the deflated balloon, showing that the inflated balloon weighs more because it contains air.

So air has weight.


Proving Air occupies space?

Inverted tumbler in water

Place an empty base cut bottle, with balloon on the other side, into a bowl of water. 

When the bottle in pushed in bowl the balloon pop with air. 

Empty bottle had air, when pushed in water, water pushes air in other end that has balloon pop up. 

So air need space

Methanol a promising alternative to fossil fuels.  In the area of- Transportation Methanol can be used in road, rail, and marine transportation. It can be more affordable and reliable than electric vehicles (EVs) in some situations, like long-haul transportation.  Methanol engines can be as efficient as diesel engines without the diesel emissions. Energy Methanol can be used in boilers, process heating modules, tractors, and commercial vehicles.  Cooking Methanol can be used as a cooking fuel in stoves and canisters that don't require pipes or regulators.    Benefits Environmental impact Methanol can reduce nitrogen oxide emissions by up to 80% and carbon dioxide emissions by up to 95% compared to fossil fuels.  Accidental spills not harmful for environment as methonol is biodegradable,  ' Production Methanol can be produced from a variety of sources,  agricultural products,  municipal waste,  wood, and biomass.  from chemical recyc...

Genie Wiley - The Forbidden Experiment   Who was Genie Wiley? The case name is Genie. This is not the person's real name, but when we think about what a genie is, a genie is a creature that comes out of a bottle or whatever but emerges into human society past childhood.

Discovery and Study (1970-1975) Genie's story came to light on November 4, 1970, in Los Angeles, California. Both parents were charged with abuse, but Genie's fa...

Medical Image Processing softwares Medical imaging is one of the fastest growing areas in healthcare. Over the past few decades, it has evolved to include multiple imaging modalities including CT scans, MRIs, ultrasound, and nuclear medicine, to name a few. Along with advancements in the hardware and devices used to generate medical images, huge progress has been made with the different types of software that handle these images. Acquiring, storing, retrieving and sharing medical images can only be done in the DICOM format. The market is flooded with different kinds of medical imaging software for viewing DICOM images. Medical Image Processing software can be classified as- 1)Medical Image Analysis Software Any software that can ‘analyze’ data that is obtained from medical images,in the effort to create software capable of independently detecting clinical anomalies in medical images. Medical image analysis software uses deep learning algorithms to read and evaluate images.It can be tra...
