1) An iceberg contains significantly more total heat energy than a burning match. The reason is the sheer size of the iceberg.

5) If you drilled a tunnel straight through the earth and jumped in it would take exactly take 43 minutes to reach the other side.

10) When dropped on a very hard, rigid surface, glass balls and steel balls will bounce higher than rubber ones. The reason is that rubber balls deform significantly on impact, flattening onto the surface, and then springing back.
11)Without its lining of mucus your stomach would digest itself.
12)To escape the Earth’s gravity a rocket need to travel at 7 miles a second.
