Q

BALLISTIC MOVEMENT

A

Movements that are performed with maximal velocity and acceleration can be considered ballistic actions.
Ballistic actions are characterized by high firing rates, brief contraction times, and high rates of force development

SONOLUMINISCENCE

A

The phenomena in which a micron size gas bubble is both spatially trapped and oscillated by an acoustic field in such a way that on each compression of the bubble a small burst of light is emitted

Q

SIPHON

A

A tube that is bent in the shape of an n, with each in a separate container at 2 different levels so that liquid can be pulled into in from the higher container and go down on the lower one

Q

QUARK-GLUON PLASMA

A

A state of matter in which the elementary particles that make up the hadrons of baryonic matter are freed of their strong attraction for one another under extremely high energy densities

QUARKS AND GLUONS - the building blocks of protons and neutrons, which in turn are the building blocks of atomic nuclei
