Interesting Topics in Physics

Hey class!

I was wondering if anybody found a topic in physics they are interested in. As part of my project, I am going to present a topic in physics and I would like to choose something that you all would be interested in. Please leave a comment with a topic that you would like to know more about, or a certain application.

I hope everybody has a good week! For the mean time, check out this video:


You're in for a surprise in that video.

  1. That's pretty cool. I honestly might try that at home.

  2. Kyle,

    For safety reasons I have to suggest trying it with a soda can instead. You will get the same effect if you put a little bit of water to coat the bottom, boil the water in the can, and finally turning the can upside down into a bowl of ice water.

  3. That's crazy. My teacher in high school actually did something similar to this but with a soda can (as you just mentioned). Pretty cool

    That was pretty cool! It's definitely not what I expected:)

  5. Wow, did not know it was actually possible before actually watching the video. That's pretty cool. As for my topic, I am thinking about doing it on biophysics or something in the realm between physics and the biomedical sciences.

  6. Wow! I have seen this done is to a can in a chemistry class, but not something this big and never saw the physics side to it :)

  7. Yes, like Megan I saw this done in Chemistry class. The huge can was definitely fun to watch.

  10. The pressure outside was less inside so therefore the can crushes.The changing in temperature causes this effect.
