This presentation is free to the public and appropriate for audiences of all ages.
Magic tricks and physics demonstrations have a lot in common. Both can produce unexpected results, and both depend on the laws of physics. Dr. Wall will present a number of entertaining physics demonstrations through magic tricks, and will use some obvious and some not-so-obvious performance magic to explain physical principles. Although no great secrets of magic will be revealed, the optical principles behind an entire class of magical effects will be demonstrated.
This
presentation is part of the
WSU Physics
Department’s
celebration of the
World Year of Physics
2005.
