Simple Scientific Experiments

by Aurel de Ratti
reprinted by Lindsay Publications Inc

"Describes forty-six instructive experiments in electricity, magnetism, hydraulics, hydrostatics, light and acoustics."

From a century ago. You can build a model hydraulic ram, acoustic fountain, vortex (smoke) rings, flour explosive, manufacture of gas (no beans needed), static electric motor, cheap x-ray tube (look out!), electromagnetic gun, pea suspended in air, high frequency currents, decomposition of steam with an induction coil, fiery or flaming vortex ring, thermo-electric currents and more.

If you've never seen this stuff done, then it's certainly worth trying. But I guarantee you that the average American is so technologically ignorant, he'll think you're a genius when you show him one of these tricks. (Detonate the flour bomb, and watch 'im wet his pants!)

Simple, fun experiments. Amuse yourself and others. Great quick-n-dirty science fair projects. Cheap! (just like you)... so get a copy! 5-1/2 x 8-1/2 softcover 69 pages
