Fun with Physics 11



Thought a few of you might like to see the kind of things I get up to in class.  Hope you enjoy the rollercoaster: my students certainly did!




(More posts coming soon.)

Love it! Kind of makes me sad I never took physics.

Except Mr. L never did anything fun like that in physics at our high school.

That was pretty cool. You demonstrated how to take up an entire physics class period to drop a marble into a cup?
The high curve was a doozie. Did you use a heavier marble or adjust the track?

Good stuff Chris, glad to see posting again.

For the video I used a heavier marble. The next day I adjusted the track slightly and it worked without a problem.
