Physics Science Show
By Taylor Dinkel and Madi Ginther

 The Science Club in the 6th grade went to FHSU Physics Department on Wednesday. The 6th graders, could not imagine what special things we were going to see and do.

 Have you ever seen a racket ball shatter like glass? That’s one of the things we did with liquid nitrogen. We also fit about fifteen balloons in the liquid nitrogen container. In addition, we saw a Foucault’s Pendulum, gyroscopes demonstrating angular momentum, a static electricity generator, listened to a power point demonstration on careers in Physics, used lasers to learn about diffraction, and we played songs on tubes of various lengths to get high and low pitches.

 “I had a great time and enjoyed these experiments very much,” Melissa Pfeifer said. Everyone agreed that this was an unforgettable experience. Who could imagine Physics could be so interesting and amazing!
