Top 10 Amazing Physics Videos

By Aaron Rowe September 07, 2008 | 6:21:22 PM Categories: Education , Physics , Video   

Tesla coils, superconductors, and hilarious music videos are great reasons to be excited about physics. Here are some of our favorites.

10. Musical Tesla Coil
Steve Ward can tune his Tesla coil so that the crackle of each spark sounds like a musical note.

9. Mythbusters Play with Sulfur Hexafluoride
Everyone knows that helium can make your voice sound high like a chipmunk, but what will happen when Adam Savage inhales some gas that is over five times denser than air?

8. Boomerang in Zero Gravity
Japanese astronaut Takao Doi proves that a boomerang will always return to the person who threw it -- even in outer space.

7. Helium Superfluid
At extremely low temperatures, some liquids stop playing by their usual rules.

6. Halo of Water Vapor Appears Around Supersonic F-14 Jet
The shockwave surrounding a supersonic jet can compress air so much that the ambient moisture will form a cloud.

5. Sound Waves on Fire
Reuben's tube is a classic way to demonstrate the concept of a standing wave. Pump some flammable gas into one side of a tube, and attach a speaker to the other side, and watch what happens to the columns of flames that issue from small holes along the top.

4. Water Droplets in Zero Gravity
An amazing set of experiments performed on the international space station.

3. Fun with Ferrofluid
Magnetic fields creating dynamic sculptures.

2. How Superconducting Levitation Works
A fantastic lesson about exotic materials and magnetism in just over six minutes.

1. Large Hadron Collider Rap
Kate McAlpine and her friends filmed this amazingly informative song within the caverns of the Large Hadron Collider at CERN.

What did we miss? If you know of a great science video that should get some airplay on our website, please tell us about it.
