Show Me Some Science! Magnetic Braking
A magnet is dropped on a cold block of copper and all sorts of awesome science ensues.
Show Me Some Science: Balloon Buoyancy
There’s nothing intrinsically “floaty” about helium. You can make a helium balloon that sinks, if it’s cold enough, as we see in this video.
Show Me Some Science! Liquid Oxygen Flaming Pretzels
