Why sometimes air simply leaks out of a cycle tube while at other times it comes out with a burst? By the end of this course you should be able to answer some interesting questions
How are atoms arranged inside a solid?
13 How we can produce interesting combination of properties?
14 Why did Titanic sink?
15 Artificial rain? A giant "dragon" spewing out artificial rain over rural crop of Vidalia sweet onions
Concept of stability and metastability What do we mean by stable state? How we define metastable state? Some materials tend to remain in metastable State for years and years!! Why???

metastable unstable stable Activation barrier Fig. 2.2
Otherwise Unstable Minimum Energy – STABLE EQUILIBRIUM Maximum Energy – UNSTABLE EQUILIBRIUM Global Minimum - Most STABLE Local Minimum - METASTABLE
