Think of this site as a radio call-in program that's being held on the WWW instead of the radio. If you ask how something works, using the button below, I'll try to provide an explanation. You'll find a more comprehensive discussion of many common objects in my book: How Things Work: the Physics of Everyday Life. Feel free to create links to this site; I'm trying to encourage everyone to learn about the physics and science of the world around them.
