What are some fun physics experiments I can do at home?

You can try the classic vinegar and baking soda volcano, or create a simple pendulum using a string and a weight!

How do I make a simple pendulum?

To make a simple pendulum, tie a weight to one end of a string and secure the other end to a fixed point. Swing it gently!

What materials do I need for the volcano experiment?

For the volcano experiment, you'll need baking soda, vinegar, food coloring, and a container to hold the mixture.

Can I use other liquids instead of vinegar?

Yes, you can experiment with lemon juice or soda, but vinegar works best for the chemical reaction!

Are there any safety precautions I should take?

Always wear safety goggles and do experiments in a well-ventilated area. Avoid ingesting any materials.
