String and Sticky Tape Experiments

About this book

This handbook describes physics experiments that are constructed with only the simplest and least expensive materials: rubber bands tape paper clips chalk etc. The experiments though simple demonstrate fundamental physics laws in a practical way. The experiments are divided into 11 sections: mechanics properties of matter hydrodynamics heat wave motion light sound atomic and nuclear physics solid state and crystallography electrostatics and magnetism. Each experiment is rated by difficulty level (elementary high school or university) and includes many illustrations.
