We provide you with some science experiments that students of any age can perform to help demonstrate principles of physics. Some projects are just for fun, some are "tricks," and some will allow you to obtain useful scientific data. Such experiments would be appropriate for a science fair.
You learn science by exploring the world around you, and these books offer some structured experiments that help you begin looking through the world. Many of these books are great for kids of various ages, including adults.
An explanation of surface tension, along with some basic experiments and tricks that make use of the phenomenon.
We teach you how to build your own cosmic ray detector.
We explain how to create a rocket out of a balloon using common household items, and what makes it move. Learn the wonders of the rocket balloon!
This site provides experiments utilizing simple machines, such as levers, springs and pulleys. The experiments are great for the classroom or at home.
