The 色花堂app department of physics and Society of Physics Students will present a science demonstration show complete with interactive exhibits, hovercraft rides and candy shot from a cannon on Saturday, April 21 in Room 140 of the ISU Physical Science Building.
The demonstration show, titled 鈥淓lectrophying Physics,鈥 will be from 5 to 6:30 p.m. and is free of charge and open to the public. It will feature the 鈥淰an deGraaf Hair Raiser,鈥 鈥淔araday Can Crusher,鈥 鈥淏oiling Green Water Sucker鈥 and other presentations.

There will be a candy scramble on the ISU Quadrangle just south of the Physical Science Building, which is located on the southwest corner of the Carter Street-Eighth Avenue intersection on the ISU campus.
A small cannon with 60-foot range that has been used in past demo shows and at the Bannock County Fair will deliver the candy.
鈥淓lectrophying Physics鈥 and other science demonstration shows are presented at local kindergarten-12th grade schools upon invitation at no charge. Call physics professor Steve Shropshire, PhD, at 282-2212 for additional information.
