Unbelieveble, From Lawyer to Physicist !

In modern age, can you imagine that a lawyer can become a physicist? I think It’s impossible to change the profession from lawyer to physicist. I don’t intend to demean lawyer as a profession bro...lawyer is great profession but having skill in both profession as lawyer and physicist is amazing, hehe. That’s Amedeo Avogadro, what i mean...

Initially, Avogadro is a successfull lawyer. But then, not in a long time, Avogadro was falling in love with physics. And do you know what? This is what I don’t believe it, after studying physics deeply; finally he became professor of physics in Royal College Vercelli.

He conducted research in 1811. The research was all about gas. Avogadro created hypothesis that ‘in the same pressure, volume, and temperature, all gas have the same amount of particle”. But unfortunately at that time, his hypothesis was not accepted by almost scientists. 4 years later after his death, Stanislao Cannizzaro from Italy, an expert in chemistry, finally could explain avogadro’s hypothesis so that his hypothesis became law of Avogadro that was accepted in vast science community.

The interesting statement from Avogadro’s law:
Any gases in 1 atmosphere, volume 22.5 liters, and temperatures 273 Kelvin have the number of molecules in the amount of 6.02 X 10^23. What is this number mean? This number is called Avogadro constant or 1 mole. Just imagine, if we state that in this box, there is 1 mole O2, that’s mean inside the box have 6.02 X 10^23 oxygen molecules, have weight as 32 gram.

We can learn from this story that we should never give up if our opinions have been rejected by people.
It could be 4 years later; our opinion will be a reference that will always be followed by everyone so that finally we will be famous due to our opinion that initially rejected by most of our community.

New Guinnes World Record from the tallest building in the World

Yesterday I was shocked by new Guinnes World Record for the free fall from the tallest building in the world. This record have been achieved by Fred Furgen and Vince Reffet. I admired their achievement but I am more amazed again with the human achievement to build the tallest building in the world. Burj Khalifa or known Burj Dubai, this building is 829.8 m (2,722 ft) in height. What is this number mean? If you want to know the meaning of 829.8 m, i will show you the comparison of the tallest building in the world with Monas (Monumen Nasional) in Indonesia. Maybe you know the Monas because you have visited Indonesia or you just know from the news or read the encyclopedia. 
The height of Monas is about 150 m. So if you put monas one by one to the top of the sky, you need 6 monas to beyond the top of Burj Dubai. Can you imagine that? Even its too high for monas to reach the top of Burj Dubai. I think, when i visited the monas for the first time. This building (Monas) is very high. Apparently, It's not fair if we compare monas with the Burj Dubai. But It is a fact that Burj of Dubai is the tallest building in the world.

Here is the addition fact about Burj Dubai:
  • On the 76th floor, there is the world's highest swimming pool
  • From the 124th floor public observation deck, you can see IRAN
  • On the 143rd floor, there is the world's highest nightclub
  • On the 158th floor, there is world's tallest mosque.
  • The question is, How many floors in this building? Can you answer it? Take a look the answer in the note below. I intentionally hide the answer in order for you to think, hehe :) .
  • And that makes me difficult to believe, the project cost is about 4.1 bn USD. OMG (Oh My God, If i work for all of my life, i will not be able to get 4.1 bn USD.
  • It is amazing, isn't it! I hope, i can go to Burj Dubai someday, hehe :P
Note :

The answer is 211 floors including 2 below ground parking

I would like to write about hot topics in the world. This is like top ten hot topics in the news media. I write this post because i don't want to make the reader feel bored if they visit my blog as you know this blog is a lot of interesting stuff's in physics. We need relaxation for a minute while drinking a cup of coffee, hehe... For the source, i will use the most credible source, i.e. google hot trends. I will choose the most hot topics in the world, just for 1 news for you in each everyday.

This is the first time in this blog, i write the hot topics in the world but unfortunately I get the bad news from Paris, French. This is very sad because some people, more than 150 people, killed by Paris terror attack. My condolences for the terror attack in Paris that was happen in Friday night, 13 November 2015.
