Can a fresh snowball - if very tightly squished together - break glass?

Yes, but not all glass under ordinary circumstances. Ordinary window glass can be broken by a snowball (I have seen it happen). Plate glass and automotive glass are more resistant to breakage. Also, snowballs sometimes have extraneous objects, such as pebbles, packed into them, and these can break even more resistant glass. All of this depends, of course, on how hard the snowball is thrown. If the person throwing the snowball is moving, for example in a vehicle, or the snowball is thrown downward to accelerate under gravity, or the snowball hits a moving vehicle, even a soft snowball could break resistant glass.

What is the sound of glass smashing measured in decibels?

It is not so much the volume of the sound as the frequency as well. Sound at the wrong frequency can be played as loud as you like and it will not break the glass. The sound needs to be the same frequency as the resonant frequency of the glass (tap the glass, that note is it's resonant frequency). Once the resonant frequency has been found, it does not take much volume at all, even humans can do it, albeit trained singers (see Mythbusters).

Why does a raisin dropped in a glass of fresh champagne bounce up and down continuously from the bottom of the glass to the top?

According to the source I found, "A raisin dropped in a glass of fresh champagne will bounce up and down continually from the bottom of the glass to the top. This is because the carbonation in the drink gets pockets of air stuck in the wrinkles of the raisin, which is light enough to be raised by this air. When it reaches the surface of the champagne, the bubbles pop, and the raisin sinks back to the bottom, starting the cycle over."


What would you keep them in?
