2020 Summer Program

You have been learning physics since you were a baby. From mastering gravity to walk to your first static electric shock, nature has been a consistent teacher.

Construct experiments that allow you to manipulate, measure and master forces at work. Tops and a gyroscope to feel momentum. A pendulum to make magnets dance. A marble relay to disrupt equilibrium. A switch to reverse the flow of electric charges. New ways to blow and spin to make waves.

Put a creative twist on each experiment and share it with your group.
