My maternal cousin has to prepare a write up for her school. She needs to write something on 'fun physics'.Alas, I am stumped. I could write something on "fun chemistry", perhaps, but I would be better placed to write an article on non-fun physics. This may seem bizarre, since I work in a physics department, but like an immigrant who finds it hard to learn the language, I'm still basically a chemist with an interest in mathematics. My own experience (from schooldays) and that of my son (who did physics at a different university) have been somewhat of the "Murphy's Law" variety. (I feel a "woolly-monkey" moment coming on: "Oh, I could a tail unfold".) Nevertheless, I can still see that it is a wonderful subject, as our own third-year students' year book would gladly tell you, but alas that is not for general release.
So, any help or inspiration on this topic would be greatly welcomed.
