Richard Saunders in 3D (and 2D)

Jul 20th, 2008 | By mooeypoo | Category: Experiments, Featured Articles, Physics

A fun experiment with Richard Saunders and mooeypoo, demonstrating what happens when a 3D object (Richard\’s face) is transfered into a 2D surface (A piece of cloth).



Spare Change in Potential

Jul 7th, 2008 | By mooeypoo | Category: Chemistry, Experiments

I don’t know what about you, but I have a box I keep my change in. I’ve bene thinking for a while what I can do with that change – buy a boat, rent a jetski, get a trip on those cool X-Planes that go up to space, etc etc. Big plans for small money, [...]



Bending Water with a Plastic Comb

This is a very straight forward demonstration about static electricity, and it is working so well, that it really is fun to do anywhere with a faucet (and a plastic comb..).



A Physics Party Trick that Sucks… Liquid

Apr 13th, 2008 | By mooeypoo | Category: Chemistry, Experiments, Party Trick, Physics

Notice: This experiment is incomplete, and unclear. There were several attempts to correctly state the situation, but at the moment, a new re-make is planned to explain exactly and thoroughly what is happening to create this phenomenon.
Well, this is going to be sweet, short and to the point: Fire in closed spaces can really [...]

It’s Goo! It’s Solid! It’s Goo! It’s Solid! It’s— both???
My mom always told me never to play with my food, but in this case, I think even she will agree to make an exception. Not only am I going to play with this food, you should too. It’s way too fun to pass on.



An otherwise straight beam of light…

Mar 9th, 2008 | By mooeypoo | Category: Astronomy, Experiments, Physics

All super-thieves know that lasers go straight. It’s the tenet of their masterplan to jump over, crawl under and squeeze between those annoying laser beams around whatever-it-is they are interested in stealing. It can take them weeks to study the angles and train to spray dust over it so they can see them. Talented thieves.
I [...]
