The inspiration for this comic came from an ASTRO AWANI report about a young humpback whale found dead, trapped in fishing nets at Pantai Hornitos, Chile. That tragedy reminds us: physics isn’t just about exams — it’s about life, nature, and responsibility.
Here’s the physics truth: sound travels faster in water than in air, letting whales communicate across kilometers. Echolocation helps them “see” in darkness, but ghost nets reflect too little sound, making them invisible to sonar — and deadly.
By combining SPM Physics with real-world issues, this AHA! Physics Moment becomes more than science — it’s a lesson in humanity and environmental care.
AHA! Moment: Physics teaches us to protect life, not just calculate forces.
Quick Fact — Humpback Whales
Species: Megaptera novaeangliae
Known For: Haunting, complex songs that last for hours and travel across oceans.
Whales sing, nets silence. Physics speaks for life. Not by sight, but by INSIGHT!
