Turn heat energy into mechanical energy. Make a thermometer. Use gravity to cut an ice cube in two. Find out why popcorn pops and how a hammer generates heat. Formerly a little in Robert W. Rood's popular Physics for Kids series, this new edition brings thermodynamic principles to life with even more imaginative hands-on activities for home or school that will captivate children ages 8 and up.
* Complete, ready- to-use experiments )more than a third of them new) use common household items and can be completed in under one hour.
* All new illustrations guide each activity
* Expanded step-by-step instructions and detailed explanations require no physics expertise on the part of the reader.
* Easy-to-understand background on the physics principle and explanations of expected results help to focus learning
