Open Science Wiki

OpenScience is a community effort by students to bring conceptual explanation and detailed information about various topics in the various fields of science. Students will share their knowledge, research, and ideas about scientific discoveries and the workings of nature as we know it. This wiki will have sections for broader science areas like biology, chemistry, and physics, which will be stubdivided by concept/topic groups. The goal of this wiki is not only to be a repository of scientific knowledge, but also to provide explanations and even lessons such that students can learn about interesting topics outside of the classroom in a way that is coherent and understandable.

Gas

Gas is one of the four basic states of matter.

A mixture of gases contains variety of gaseous molecules like that of air. Read More>>

Gravitational Force

Gravitational Force is an attraction between two bodies by the virtue of their mass. The force of attraction between two point masses is $F = G \frac{m_1 m_2}{r^2}$ , where m₁ and m₂ are the masses of the particles and r is the distance between them. G is a universal constant having the value 6.67 × 10^-¹¹ Nm²kg^-2. Read More>>

Image of The Week

Forget about the dark side of the moon—what lies beneath its surface? Clues to mysterious impact crater rings, according to this subsurface map obtained from NASA’s Gravity Recovery and Interior Laboratory mission. The data could provide insight into other comet and asteroid strikes across the solar system.

Search the Elements

On the right hand side is the crossword puzzle. There are elements from the periodic table which are spread in all the directions(horizontal, vertical and diagonal). The answer for this puzzle is hidden on our wiki if you dare then try to search the wiki for the answers: it's not so hard though.

We prefer that you open the full sized image as it would be more easy to view.
