List of Demonstration Experiments
Click on the links to get to:
- a list of demos most
often used by physics faculty teaching introductory
courses
- a list of movies
and video tapes owned by the department
- A typical selection of demos and movies for Physics 5, Physics 8, Physics 9, Physics 21, Physics 101, Physics 102, Physics 150, Physics 230.
