I’m Ken Kuwako, your Science Trainer. Every day is an experiment. Have you ever wondered just how unlikely it is that you were born as exactly you? If you actually do the math, the number turns out to be truly astronomical. In this article, we’ll unravel the mystery behind this incredible “one-in-a-trillion miracle” using something […]

I’m Ken Kuwako, a Science Trainer. Every day is an experiment! Why doesn’t a moving bicycle fall over? Why does a spinning top keep spinning without toppling over? The secret lies in something called the “gyroscopic effect.” The gyroscopic effect is the fascinating and rather mysterious property of a rotating object that makes it want […]

I’m Ken Kuwako, your Science Trainer. Every day is an experiment. When teaching “force” in science class, we often tell students that “to exert a force on an object, you have to touch it.” But electrostatic force can act on objects from a distance, almost like a magnet, even when the objects are not touching. […]

I’m Science Trainer Ken Kuwako. Every day is an experiment. The “virtual images” we see when we look into mirrors or through lenses. Are they just illusions? Or is our brain somehow fooling us? In fact, this phenomenon, which is often misunderstood, turns out to be surprisingly deep when you try to explain it scientifically […]

I’m Ken Kuwako, your Science Trainer. Every day is an experiment. If someone told you, “Build a duck using six blocks,” what kind of duck would you imagine? Surprisingly, even if you gave the exact same instructions to an entire class, no two ducks would ever turn out exactly alike. This simple little “duck-building” activity […]
