Science In Infographics Forces

Learning about heavy physics concepts can sure weigh down your brain! You need to understand huge forces (like gravity, magnetism, and inertia), huge speeds (light moves at 670,615,200 miles per hour), and even huger mysteries (what space-time is). How can all these big numbers and concepts make more sense? Infographics! The charts, maps, and illustrations in this book tell a visual story to help you better understand key concepts about forces and motion. Crack open this book to explore mind-boggling questions such as: • How do spaceships break away from Earth's gravity? • Why don't submarines and ships sink in water? • What keeps riders from falling out of roller coasters (besides their safety belts!)? The answers are sure to stick with you!

Absorbing facts about the 11.3 million species on Earth might cause your brain to burst! You need to take in huge timelines (the first life on Earth formed 3.8 billion years ago), huge numbers (your body is made up of trillions of cells), and even huger mysteries (why species go extinct). How can all these big numbers and concepts make more sense? Infographics! The charts, maps, and illustrations in this book tell a visual story to help you better understand key concepts about life science. Crack open this book to explore mind-boggling questions such as: • How do organisms evolve over millions of years? • How does DNA determine what you will look like? • Why are so many species struggling to survive today? The answers are sure to be life-expanding!

Welcome to the world of infographics! This exciting form of data visualisation uses icons, pictograms and graphics to present information in a whole new way. Read about the states of matter, find out how substances change state, and discover the different properties of materials - all visualised in beautifully designed infographics. Ideal for children of 9+, and fact and science geeks of all ages, finding out about materials has never been more exciting!

Most of us have heard of Albert Einstein, but how many of us actually know and understand his theories and, later, discoveries? Looking back in time, this book introduces students to Einstein and another famous scientist, Isaac Newton. Centered on the findings of the two researchers, this book uncovers the inner workings of gravity, heat, electricity, energy, and light. This book provides readers with the knowledge they need to understand simple things that are part of our daily lives: keeping our feet on the ground, playing with magnetic toys, and listening to music, to name just a few.

Physical forces affect us in big and little ways every day. To ride a bike, one must push down on the pedals. To cut through paper with scissors, pressure must be applied. Even Earth and all the planets in our solar system move around the sun by the forces of gravity. Through visually pleasing and informative infographics, readers are presented with scientific concepts that are manageable and that make sense in the context of their everyday lives.

The facts about natural disasters are so big and devastating they could make your head explode! You hear about huge costs (like the $360,000,000,000 in damage caused by the 2011 tsunami in Japan), huge speeds (the fastest-moving tsunami waves have been recorded at 500 miles per hour), and even huger mysteries (where, exactly, the danger zones are for natural disasters). How can all these big numbers and concepts make more sense? Infographics! The charts, maps, and illustrations in this book tell a visual story to help you better understand key concepts about natural disasters. Crack open this book to explore mind-boggling questions such as: • How can scientists accurately predict natural disasters? • What were some of Earth’s biggest, freakiest, and deadliest disasters? • How can you protect yourself in the event of a volcano, an earthquake, or a tsunami? The answers are sure to shake you up!
