Things to Know About Robotics Learning for Beginners

Robotics is an exciting and ever-evolving field that combines engineering, technology, and creativity to build intelligent machines. Whether you're a student, a hobbyist, or a parent guiding your child into robotics, understanding the basics is essential for a rewarding learning experience. Here are key things to know before diving into the fascinating world of robotics. 1. What Robotics Is At its core, robotics involves designing, building, and programming machines that can perform tasks autonomously or with minimal human intervention. Robotics integrates multiple disciplines, including: Mechanical Engineering: For designing the physical structure of robots. Electronics: For creating circuits and connections that enable movement and sensing. Programming: For writing the code that controls robot behavior. Having a basic understanding of these fields will give you a strong foundation as you start your robotics journey. 2. The Importance of Problem-Solving Skills Robotics is all a...

Epsom salt crystal

 Quick Crytal With Epsom Salt


There are different ways to grow crystals some crystal growing methods even take many days to get results. But this method is an easy and fast method where you can grow needle-like crystals in just a few hours.

Materials Required:
  • Epsom salt
  • A small bowl or a cup or jar
  • Food coloring
  • Water
Method To Grow Crystal:
  • In a jar take 1/2 cup of Epsom salts and mix it with 1/2 cup of hot water. 
  • Stir it properly for at least one minute to dissolve the salt completely in the water to create the saturated solution. Some undissolved salt settles at the bottom of the bowl.
  • Add a few drops of food color of your wish to get colored crystals
  • Place the bowl in the refrigerator
  • After a few hours, you can see the bowl full of needle-like crystals grown 
Science Behind

Epsom salt ( Magnesium Sulphate) dissolves more in the hot water. When the saturated solution cools down it results in the rapid fast growth of crystals. Since the solution becomes dense and has less room for dissolved salts. The atoms in the magnesium sulfate join together and form a crystal-like structure.
The crystal grown this way will be small and looks like a needle-like structure. This shows that the temperature of water matters how much magnesium sulfate it can hold.

Further experiment
  • Check by changing the amount of salt dissolved in the solution
  • Raise the temperature of the water and check for results.

Growing Crystals

GROWING CRYSTALS Crystal is a solid material formed with atoms and molecules that are arranged in a consistent repeating pattern. This gives a definite shape to the crystals. Some of the crystals which are expensive are known to us like amethysts or diamonds. Do you wonder how crystals are found right in your kitchen? Yes, in the form of salt and sugar.  Crystals can be easily grown by adding a crystal-forming chemical to water and waiting for the water to cool or evaporate. Growing crystals is really a fun experiment for kids. They enjoy growing crystals in different and learn their science along the way. Let's see a few ways to grow crystals at home and engage kids with fun learning. Epsom Salt:   Epsom salt is inexpensive and readily available in the pharmacy or craft store.   It accepts food color as well if you want to grow colorful needle-like crystals.   It is non-toxic and crystals can be grown in a few minutes to an hour when the liquid is refrigerated.

Borax Pipe Cleaner Hanging Crystals

Borax Pipe Cleaner Hanging Crystals  It is a very interesting and fun activity of growing crystals with the chemical called Borax.  Borax is a chemical sold in the market as a laundry booster or an insecticide. It does not accept food coloring.  You can also use a pipe cleaner, bend it into fun shapes (stars, flowers, hearts, and more), and dip it into the borax solution overnight. You can see the crystal grow in the fun shape of pipe cleaners and get colorful crystals growing with the color of pipe cleaners. Required material: pan with a wide mouth Borax Pipe cleaners Water Tablespoon String Scissors Food coloring (optional) Methods to Grow Hanging Crystals Twist the pipe cleaners with your desired shape (like a star, flower, or any shape you desire) Take a wide-mouth pan such that the pipe cleaner easily fits into the jar with plenty of shape around it. (if not it will become harder to remove once the crystals are formed) Tie one end of the string into the shape of a pi...
