How will you distinguish between plane mirror convex mirror and concave mirror without touching?

If the image is erect and equal in size and it does not change its size and nature on moving the mirror closer or away from the object, the mirror is plane mirror. If the image is erect and magnified and it becomes inverted on moving the mirror away from the object, the mirror is concave mirror. If the image is erect and diminished and remains erect on moving the mirror away from the object, the mirror is convex mirror.


How can you move a large object without touching it?

-- Blow on it. -- Pass a magnet near it. -- Lift one end of the table it's on, and let gravity move it. -- Divert a river to flow past the object and float it away. -- Pay several friends or a moving company to get rid of it for you. -- Detonate a large explosive charge near the object. -- Stick a large sign to it which reads: "12K fine gold, Keep Away, Do Not Touch, This Means You" and walk away.


If you touch a wooden window then the wooden frame feels warmer than the glass they are actually the same temperature why does the glass feel colder?

Glass conducts heat away from your finger more effeciently than wood making it "feel" colder. The wood can only draw a certain amount of heat out of your finger before its limit is met, while the glass' chrystaline structure allows it to act as a heat sink much better than the frame.


Why do passenger in a bus tend to fall sideways when it take a sharp turn?

Inertia. Also they don't have shocks that lean into the turn instead of away (like some Cadillac cars do. They took my idea!). An object in motion tends to stay in motion. This has more than one meaning.


Why does the pepper run away when soap is added?

Soap disrupts the surface tension of water. So if you have fine particles floating in water (I personally use parsley flakes, which float better than pepper does) and you put a tiny trace of soap on your finger, and then touch the water, it breaks the surface tension at that point - but the surface tension of the water on the OTHER side of the flake is unchanged. The surface tension pulls the flakes away from the soap. So the flakes aren't running away - they are being released from the surface tension!
