Detailed illustrations and diagrams explain how to construct a simple radio with a soldering iron, a few basic circuits, and three shiny pennies. Instructions are included for a rotary steam engine that requires a candle, a soda can, a length of copper tubing, and just 15 minutes. To use optics to roast a hot dog, no electricity or stove is required, just a flexible plastic mirror, a wooden box, a little algebra, and a sunny day. Also included are experiments most science teachers probably never demonstrated, such as magnets that levitate in midair, metals that melt in hot water, a Van de Graaff generator made from a pair of empty soda cans, and lasers that transmit radio signals. Every experiment is followed by an explanation of the applicable physics or chemistry. 588 0 Print version record. 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 650 0 Electronic apparatus and appliances|xDesign and construction|vAmateurs' manuals.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh2009124790 650 0 Science|xExperiments.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh85118567 650 7 Electronic apparatus and appliances|xDesign and construction.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/906787 650 7 Science|xExperiments.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1108230 655 4 Electronic books. 655 7 Handbooks and manuals.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast /1423877 655 7 Handbooks and manuals.|2lcgft|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/genreForms/gf2014026109 776 08 |iPrint version:|aField, Simon (Simon Quellen).|tGonzo gizmos.|dChicago, Ill. : Chicago Review Press, ©2002 |z1556525206|z9781556525209|w(DLC) 2003014665 |w(OCoLC)52547594 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=195804|zOnline eBook.
