It is due to strong molecular interactions of the hydrogen bonds as the water is cooled. Most materials become more dense as they cool, and so does water but when it gets close to freezing its density is maximum and it gets less dense and at freezing (0 C) it expands and becomes ice, which floats. Not many materials do this. The 4C max density number is a property of the water

Is there any difference between centigrade degree and degree centigrade?

There is no real difference. In scientific usage, "degree centigrade" is more common than "centigrade degree" since the typical abbreviation is, for example, 40oC instead of 40 Co.

Using pi for collecting electrical load data?

AC electrical circuits involve sine wave in which the electrical degree of phase differences are used. A sine wave starts from 0 degree reaches maximum positive value at 90 degree and again reaches zero value at 180 degree. The it raises in negative, reaches maximum negativa value at 270 degree and again reaches zero value at 360 degree and this repeats. The electrical degree is often pronounced in terms of radians.π Radians = 180 degree2π Radians = 360 degress.Thats why pi is involved in electrical calculations
