The Electric Magnetic Engineering Show
Join Scienctific Sue on this forceful journey of discovery. What are positive and negative charges? Volunteers will be required to help demonstrate how these forces can be used to separate pepper from a salt and pepper mix; to push cornstarch lemmings out of a tin boat and make Chloe’s hair stand up on end.
Can magnets also be used to give push and pull forces? What crazy things will our resident scientist come up with to demonstrate their magic properties?
Be amazed at how engineers use these forces in the world around you! Loads of energy changes and cool experiments to demonstrate how forces affect speed, shape and direction.
