A stream of compressed air does not look like a power source. In factories, it usually hisses through pipes, drives tools, then disappears as waste. But under the right conditions, that same airflow ...

The MarketWatch News Department was not involved in the creation of this content. The novel contactless electricity generation technique leverages practical compressed air along with a Tesla turbine ...

As humans we often think we have a pretty good handle on the basics of the way the world works, from an intuition about gravity good enough to let us walk around, play baseball, and land spacecraft on ...

one of my favorite things to do with balloon is to rub it on my wife's hair because it makes the hair stick to the balloon isn't that pretty cool why does it happen and now if I bring the balloon ...

It’s all about static electricity on Tuesday’s Life.Style.Live! with Rick Crosslin, Scientist in Residence for MSD Wayne Township. He demonstrated how static electricity is created and discussed the ...

Water droplets falling through a tube have generated enough electricity to power 12 LED lights. Such an approach could one day be used in roof-based systems to harvest lots of clean power from rain.
