Glass is in the category which is considered a super cooled liquid. There is no crystaline structure to maintain it's shape.
Cause it fills the container/space that its in-eventually. if you look at really old glass you will see that its thicker at the bottom than the top, and it will have little sort of ripples in it. but i mean seriously it takes forever.
Glass remains liquid. The glass at the bottom of the window becomes thicker than at the top. It is not radioactive.
Glass is a solid liquid it flows very slow as if you ever had a very old piece of glass it will be thicker at the bottom than the top it takes about 100 years to see a big difference in the glass thickness at the bottom hope this helps
Glass is an amorphous solids and therefore are pseudo solids.Hence like liquids it has tendency to flow.therefore in old buildings the glass paneslook milky in appearence.by Jaspreet Singhanswered on 1-04-2013
Glass can occur both naturally and synthetically. Examples of natural glass can be found in igneous rocks and asteroid impacts. Also, it is more gender neutral to say "human made" or "synthetic," rather than "man made."
Glass is a solid. Specifically, it is an amorphous solid. The reason that many old panes of glass are thicker at one end is because the medieval glaziers sometimes could not cast perfectly uniform sheets of glass and, for obvious reasons, put the thicker end at the bottom. glass is actually a liquid. older windows tend to be thicker at the bottom than at the top. this is because, though it moves VERY slowly, it is a liquid, not a solid. This is a MASSIVE oversimplification of a highly technical argument. It's also factually incorrect; panes of glass in old windows are thicker at the bottom because they were thicker on one edge to begin with (due to how panes of glass were made at the time) and the glaziers cleverly figured out that, hey, they balance better if you put the WIDE edge on the BOTTOM instead of the top. Also, you can without too much difficulty find windows where they put the glass in any old way, and the thick edge is on the top on some panes, and on the left on some panes, and on the right on some panes, and on the bottom on some panes. To put the final nail in the coffin, the lead solder used to hold the panes in place (which NOBODY argues is a liquid) often has a measurably LOWER viscosity than the glass does, but you don't see little puddles of lead at the bottom of the windows. Among materials scientists, the preferred term is "amorphous solid" or, indeed, "glass". (Not universally, but by a pretty clear majority.) Those who are primarily interested in thermodynamics properties will sometimes use "supercooled liquid."
Glass is almost completely Silica (silicon dioxide), the naturally occurring form of the element silicon, and is actually a liquid. Look a the bottom edge of an old plate glass window (50 years or older). The bottom will be measureably thicker than the top. This is due to the silica "flowing" downward in response to gravity.
Glass is not a true solid. It has no crystalline structure. It has no set melting point, as it is what is known as a "super cooled liquid". The hotter it gets, the faster it flows. I've read that cathedrals with stained glass that is centuries old, find that the glass is each segment is thicker at the bottom. In other words, the glass has flowed downwards over the centuries.
The glass is so thin so it can tell the tempature. If the glass were thicker, the thermomiter would be wrong.
the thicker the glass the less heat goes in
Converging. Think of burning ants with a magnifying glass. A magnifying glass is thicker in the middle and it makes the sun's light converge on the ants.
