Severe changes in temperatures can shatter glass which often happens in car windshields. If there is a chip or crack in the glass and water penetrates it and freezes it can shatter glass especially if it is tempered. Heating can expand the tables frame and crush the glass but other than an object falling or direct pressure...ghosts?
The glass has potential energy due to its position on the table. If it were to fall, this potential energy would be converted into kinetic energy.
That depends on the strength of the magnet and thickness of the glass.A regular magnet may work through a thin piece of glass, however a weak magnet will not work through a thick piece of glass.
A glass ball is not likely to bounce since glass is a rigid and brittle material that lacks the elasticity necessary for bouncing. Instead, it would likely shatter upon impact due to its brittle nature.
The glass would likely shatter due to the rapid change in temperature causing thermal stress. Glass is sensitive to sudden changes in temperature, and placing a cold glass in a hot environment would cause uneven expansion, leading to the glass breaking.
Pushing down with more force on the ruler could cause it to bend or break, depending on the material it's made of. Additionally, the table underneath may experience extra pressure or stress, potentially affecting its stability.
I would not recommend a glass top table,glass is fragile even in strong forms.
but you cant but it wo have to be really high to break glass
what to do if i was in a glass box? I would try to break it or else I would die later
The top place to find a glass top coffee table online would be on Nextag. Finding a glass top coffee table in a store can be as easy as stopping by your local Walmart.
it is scientifically proven that a ball of glass bounces higher than a ball of rubber. No cause the glass would break if you drop it to high and the rubber one would not ! It depends on wether or not your counting the height the shards fly up.
I had to hit the brake before the glass would break.
The glass has potential energy due to its position on the table. If it were to fall, this potential energy would be converted into kinetic energy.
The places to purchase a glass top table are many and varied. The best place to start would be Amazon. If you are on a tight budget, a good option to try would be eBay.
Hmmm... I think this shld b a better ans. When in a cold room, the glass will contract. So, when taken out of cold room and placed in hot room, expansion will take place. As the glass has uneven surface, the process of expansion will cause the crack.
Toughened glass was first invented by a glassmaker who wanted to make a windscreen for a vehicle such as a car or a train so that it would break into lots of tiny fragments that would cause less injury to someone if they were thrown through it if the vehicle was involved in a collision. (If ordinary glass were used it would crack into large pieces which would badly cut that person.)
1 will do the job
You don't necessarily have to go so high to break a glass, rather it is hitting the exact same frequency of vibration that the glass has. So you would tap the glass to determine the frequency (you need someone with perfect pitch or an analyzer), and then you just have to hit that same note at the right intensity to break the glass.
