Why a glass will not be broken when it falls to a carpet but not when it falls to a marble floor?
A glass will not break when it falls onto a carpet because the carpet provides a softer, more forgiving surface that absorbs the impact energy, reducing the force exerted on the glass. In contrast, a marble floor is hard and rigid, which means it does not absorb much energy; when the glass hits this surface, the force is concentrated on the glass, often leading to breakage. The cushioning effect of the carpet prevents the glass from reaching the critical stress point that would cause it to shatter.

It is more likely that a glass will not be broken when it falls on a carpet but not when it falls on a marble floor Why?
A glass is more likely to survive a fall onto a carpet because the carpet provides a softer, more cushioned surface that absorbs some of the impact energy, reducing the force exerted on the glass. In contrast, a marble floor is hard and rigid, meaning that the energy from the fall is not absorbed as effectively, leading to a higher chance of the glass breaking upon impact. The cushioning effect of the carpet helps to dissipate the energy, protecting the glass from shattering.
Why does a marble floor feel hotter in summer than a carpeted floor?
Well, honey, it's simple science. Marble is a dense material that absorbs and retains heat, making it feel hotter to the touch. Meanwhile, carpet acts as insulation, keeping the floor cooler by trapping air and preventing heat transfer. So, next time you're dancing on that marble floor in the summer, just remember to bring your flip flops.
A marble floor feels hotter in summer than a carpeted floor why?
A marble floor feels hotter in summer than a carpeted floor because marble conducts heat. Since the heat gets trapped, it travels to the rest of floor raising the temperature. Carpet does not conduct much heat due to tiny holes that allow air ventilation.
Why does a marble roll further on a tiled floor than a carpet?
The marble is really good at conducting heat away from your hand but because the carpet isn't as dense and has lots of air between the fibres it is not a very good heat conductor. Because the marble is a goodheat conductor it cools down your feet quickly and so they feel colder but the carpet cannot cool down your feet. An interesting experiment to try is to get three bowls and put hot water in one, cold water in another and a 50:50 mix of hot and cold in the third. Put one hand in the hot water and the other hand in the cold water for 20 seconds and then put them both into to third bowl. Try it but be careful that the water isn't too hot.
