Program Description
Event Details
From spinning tops to orbiting planets, circular motion shapes our world! In this hands-on program, participants explore the fascinating physics behind rotating objects while creating beautiful motion-based art. Through interactive experiments, students discover key concepts like angular momentum, mass distribution, rotational inertia, and velocity—all while watching their creations whirl and twirl. By combining science with creativity, participants gain both an intuitive and theoretical understanding of why things spin the way they do. Registration required. Class size limited. For ages 7 and up!
