I thought I'd share the usenet physics FAQ, hosted by John Baez, a site that I link to quite often, with those of you who haven't stumbled across it yet. IT contains a plethora of answers to commonly asked questions in all areas of physics. Here are a few examples:

• Which way will my bathtub drain?
• Hot water freezes faster than cold!
• Why is the sky blue?
• Open questions in physics

There are then discussions of commonly asked questions in many other areas of physics, including

• Particle and Nuclear Physics
• Quantum Physics
• Relativity and Cosmology

Enjoy!

Here's a link to a very good website giving explanations of physical phenomena, like Hawking Radiation, or Black Hole Thermodynamics, and explanations of theories like general relativity, string theory and "field" theory. http://www.physics.ucdavis.edu/Text/Carlip.html
