Science Stunts: Fun Feats of Physics

Jordan D. Brown

This book presents 25 magic-trick-style activities that demonstrate physics. The stunts are connected to ideas associated with Galileo, Newton, and Einstein, and the explanations cover concepts including gravity, inertia, magnetism, motion, and sound vibrations. Readers are invited to experiment beyond a laboratory setting while exploring why the effects occur. Cartoonlike illustrations accompany the activities. By using tricks as a starting point, the book links hands-on experimentation with scientific theories and physical forces.
