My visit to the Science center Kuala Lumpur ((UNFINISHED))

So, my visit to the science centre was enjoyable as I learned so much, I learned about Plants, Cyclones vs Typhoons, magnetic forces, the periodic table, electric circuits, earthquakes, and lots of things.

Plants

Cyclones vs Typhoons vs Hurricanes
Repeat this cycle you get a cyclone, and now you are probably wondering.

First, let's start with the plants, to make a plant grow, you need carbon dioxide, water and sunlight, and those important ingredients help the plant make food (it's one kind of food), which it uses to turn the carbon dioxide into oxygen for us to breath.

Cyclones vs typhoons, Clyclones and Thyphoons are basically the same since they both possess the same way of forming and destructive nature. A cyclone forms when the warm, moist air rises upward over the ocean. When that air moves up, there is the low-pressure air below. Now the low-pressure area is mixed with the high-pressure air from the air around it, and then the cool air gets warm and moist over the ocean moving upward.

Why is there a cyclone, typhoon, or hurricane?
well, it is because they are named hurricanes when they develop over the North Atlantic, central North Pacific, and eastern North Pacific.
cyclones when they form over the South Pacific and Indian Ocean.
And typhoons when they develop in the Northwest Pacific.

Magnetic Forces

Magnetic forces happen when there is a piece of two pieces of metal with magnetic qualities point at different poles, do they attract, and when they are pointing to each other with the same pole, they repel. Now what is a "pole", well on a magnet there are two types of poles. North and South pole, poles are identical, but like I said above when they are both different poles, (one south and one north pole) and they are facing each other, you can feel the poles pulling on each other wanting it to be pulled together. If you try and do the same but have both south and north poles, you will notice that the two magnets want to pull apart, and thus they are repelling.

The Periodic table 

Ah yes, the periodic table is a vital part of science, as without it, it is difficult to document and study the effects one element has on another, for example, one reaction between potassium and H2O (water). If the potassium touches water, the potassium explodes, (not bomb level, but still dangerous)y. And other radioactive elements. The Currie's Working with her husband, Pierre Curie, Marie Curie discovered Polonium and Radium in 1898.

Electric circuits

My personal favourite thing at the science centre is that I learned about electrical circuits and how they function.

For a circuit to work, you need it to be a "completed circuit", to make a completed circuit you need the circuit to be in a loop, like a square, with each corner as a component and since it is square it makes full loop causing the electricity to flow between all the components.

Also, I finally learned how resisters work, which is by "resisting" the electrical currents to make say a 9V to a 7V by using a resister.

But conductors are for amplifying the electrical currents, as maybe you have a 3V power

source and you need it to be a 9V, so use a conductor to make it so. During travel between wires, you lose electricity, due to the laws of thermodynamics, you will lose electricity during travel, same with using a car tyre for too long it wares down, so electricity gets "lost" due to thermodynamics but conductors let the electricity flow though without losing power.

Earthquakes

Earthquakes happen due to sudden movement along tectonic faults within the earth.
the movement of such tectonic plates releases 'elastic strain' energy in the form of seismic waves, which go through the earth and cause the ground surface to shake.

Which causes large property damage, there are nine levels of earthquakes, each with increasing vibrations and danger, named the Richter scale, the bigger the number is, the more damage it can cause. 

2.5 magnitude, is regularly felt but is known for not causing much damage, but can be measured by a seismograph.

2.5 - 5.4 magnitude, slight damage, but only causes minor damage.

5.5 - 6 magnitude, damage to buildings and can cause them to collapse.

6.1 - 6.9 magnitude, can cause large amounts of damage to highly populated areas.
