How GPS Finds Your Location
GPS feels like magic, but it is “time + distance + several satellites.” Learn the simple steps and why your phone’s blue dot sometimes drifts in cities or indoors.
Why Ice Floats on Water
Ice floats because frozen water expands into a roomy crystal shape. This lowers density, keeps ice on top, and helps lakes stay alive in winter—showing how small patterns can protect a whole world.
How Touchscreens Work
Touchscreens feel like magic, but they use a hidden sensor grid. Your finger changes signals, the phone finds the x-y point, and software decides what to do—tap, swipe, or zoom.
How Light Travels Through Space
When you see a star, you are receiving a traveling wave of energy. Light moves through empty space at a steady speed, so distant light carries old information to Earth.
Why Batteries Drain Fast
Phones lose power quickly when screens are bright, apps stay active, and heavy tasks run. Heat and aging reduce capacity. Learn simple settings and habits to make your battery last longer.
Why Things Fall Down: Understanding Gravity
When you drop a ball, it always falls to the ground. This simple moment shows gravity, a quiet force that pulls everything toward Earth and shapes every step you take.
How Smartphones Changed Life
