If the hand is suddenly brought down with a circular sweep, the pile of coins (or a single coin when practicing) will be left hanging in space for an instant – just long enough to be grasped by the palm coming down upon it.
Battelle/PNNL researchers participated in the 2nd annual Celebration of Science at John Dam Plaza in Richland. The event is festival-style, showcasing the amazing contributions of science-based industries in our community.

It's the neighbor kid's science project that he has to bring to school tomorrow. His Mother doesnt want it anywhere near thier house so I volunteered my refrigerator to help him out. Its wrapped up real well so its not going to cause any problems but I dont want my darling to open up the package
This ancient little airplane was carried several hundred feet through the air by a twisted rubber band which drove a propeller at the rear.
Bend a wooden match in the middle, which will, of course, almost break it through, the two parts being only held together by an uncertain section. Now place it at an acute angle across the mouth of an empty bottle, with a nickel on top.
Ask the spectators how they would set about causing the coin to fall into the bottle, without either touching or breathing on the bent match or nickel. They are not likely to discover a solution without assistance.
Dip your finger in a glass of water and, holding it above the angle of the bent match, allow a few drops to fall upon the broken part. Swollen by the moisture, the fibers of the wood will tend to straighten themselves; and, little by little, you will see the angle of the match growing larger and larger, until, no longer supporting the coin, the latter will fall into the bottle.

Glue a couple of small lamp-shades securely together by their bases, or they may be two cones of cardboard. Now, with two smooth walking-sticks, construct an inclined plane by placing them on volumes of unequal height, as in the drawing; observing, however, that they form an acute angle with each other, whose apex falls beyond the smaller book.
Place the double cone near the lower angle, as in the drawing, close to the bottom of the inclined plane; and, to your astonishment, instead of seeing it roll down the remainder of the distance, it will appear to mount the reverse way, and steadily revolve uphill.
Why? The cone itself is really going down hill, for as the angle between the walking-sticks widens, it allows the center of gravity of the cone to descend lower and lower. It is but a curious optical illusion -- not a contradiction of the laws of gravity.

Choose as rounded a pea as you can find, and soften it in water if it’s dry. Then skillfully impale it on a pin so as not to damage its exterior surface and shape. Then get a tube (or a straw) of very small bore and place the pea on one of its extremities, where it is kept in place by the pin which has been inserted in the tube.
Throw your head back until the tube is in a vertical position and blow gradually and slowly through it. The pea will rise up. Then blow more forcibly, and it will be sustained in space by the current of air, turning on itself when the breath strikes the pin.
Audiences will be amazed in this event as they experience the effects of very hot and very cold temperatures and what affects they can create with our friend Eggbert and in a show-stopping exothermic reaction. Volunteers will get to see matter transform from one state to another by tasting a fizzing Mad Science “burp” potion, and taking a Mad Science bubble bath and shower. They will also be in a scary movie scene using dry ice special effects!
