When Water Flows Uphill In the Leidenfrost Effect, a water droplet will float on a layer of its own vapor if heated to a certain temperature. This common cooking phenomenon takes center stage in a ...

Have you ever seen a water droplet bounce off the surface of a glass of water? Here's what it looks like at 2,000 frames per second -- and why it could help us build a smarter boat.

A series of water droplets rolling down the single track would collide with second droplet sitting at the fork, and alternatively knock the second droplet toward one fork branch or the other — a ...

1 Making an impact (a) An undeformed drop with diameter D 0 hits the surface and spreads out to its maximum diameter, D max, within the first 2 ms.The drop subsequently retracts and can either detach ...

With the medicine dropper, take a small amount of the concentrated food coloring from the drop next to your line and put it into the first water droplet of the line. Mix it by sucking the droplet ...

When a droplet of water is frozen from the outside, it develops a rigid ice shell, according to the researchers. ... "Once all the cracks are healed, pressure can build up again." ...
