  3. Physics Showcase Demos • Demos will be done up front. For each demo, do the following: • Write the name of the demo • Write 5 observations for what you’re seeing and hearing. Any observations. Use all your senses. • Try to come up with a hypothesis for what you think is happening. Why did you see what you saw? • Tell me 1 way that knowing how this demo works could be useful • Demo 1: The Tablecloth Trick Demo 2: Invincible Phone Books • Demo 3: Fireproof Paper Demo 4: The Tesla Coil • Analysis Questions for After the Demos: • 1) From the demos you’ve seen, what kind of things does physics cover? What makes physics different from other sciences? • 2) How is any of this stuff useful? Pick one of the demos and explain in a paragraph how it might be useful to your life after high school. •  Pick one of the demos and try to understand it deeper.
