Physics fast and frugal: Dollar Store demos
You don’t need a huge particle collider to do super-cool physics.
Physics is everywhere, just waiting to be explored.
So when more than 40 high school teachers from around the world gathered at Perimeter Institute for the annual EinsteinPlus workshop, we gave them a unique challenge: to demonstrate physics, quick and cheap.
They rose to the occasion. Check out their Dollar Store Demos:
Inspired by the teachers, we created some fast and frugal physics recipes you can try at home. Kids, ask for help from a grown-up!
