In this demonstration, learners observe as a bottle is placed on a table with wooden hoop balanced on top and a pencil balanced on top of the hoop.

In this physics demonstration, learners will be surprised when a handkerchief holds water in an upside-down glass.

Perform this classic inertia demonstration to illustrate the transfer of potential energy to kinetic energy.

Listen to the beat of gravity. By taking two strings with weights tied to them at different, yet uniform intervals, you can hear the uniformity (and rhythm) of gravity's accelerating pull.

In this activity, learners discover how hard their hearts work to pump blood.

In this activity, learners investigate how changing the center of gravity of a balloon affects how it travels. Learners fill a balloon with a little bit of water and insert into an empty balloon.

Walk a toy to the edge of its doom, maybe it'll fall off the edge of a table, but it will safely stop right before falling.

In this demonstration, learners observe as two cola bottles and a dollar bill are arranged in a specific order: one bottle, upside down and filled with water, is placed on top of another bottle, with

A simple, yet fun activity that lets learners find the center of balance of a ruler (or any long thin object). Developed by the Exploratorium and no assembly needed.
