Awesome Experiments In Light Sound

These totally awesome, kid-friendly experiments teach the scientific basics of light and sound.

Offers experiments and activities to explain the properties of light and sound.

Light and sound both travel in waves, but sound waves travel significantly slower than light. Theories like this are difficult to grasp in words, but there are easy ways to see them in action. With this book's simple experiments, young scientists will test out how light can bend and how even invisible sounds can make things move, helping them understand how even the most complex theories work. Through step-by-step instructions, young readers will learn the right way to set up their experiments and expand on concepts they already know.

Super Science Light and Sound Experiments is bursting with 10 super kids' science experiments. - Photographic step-by-step guide to each experiment. - Key scientific concepts explained and put to the test. - Notes for parents, teachers and helpers on support and safety. Super Science Light and Sound Experiments will get kids aged 7+ excited about science, learning how light travels and why we hear sounds. # With clear, vibrant photographs and step-by-step instructions, confident kids will be able to approach the experiments alone. # Each experiment has been designed with children in mind, so they are all clearly labelled with difficultly ratings and if extra adult assistance is required. # Interactive learning is encouraged further with a fun quiz to allow kids to recall what they have discovered. # A detailed glossary explains difficult concepts so children can work independently. # Fun experiments featured in Super Science Experiments Light and Sound: # Seeing sound: You can't see sound, but with this clever experiment it is made possible! # Rainbow colours: Create your own rainbow! # Changing colours: Discover how your eyes add colours and how filters block out colours!

Sound and light aren’t just sensations picked up by our senses—they’re examples of science at work in the wonderful world around us! Budding scientists will delight in the text’s age-appropriate experiments, which are made easy through step-by-step instructions and photos. Each experiment is accompanied by a question-and-answer feature that answers common questions encountered while experimenting, and a concluding quiz tests reader’s knowledge of these important science concepts.

Make a camera from cardboard, create stereographic images, and start a campfire with ice! These amazing science projects use readily available items and have simple step-by-step instructions. Discover the science behind each experiment. They're quick to make and fun to show your friends and family. It lets you see in color, in 3D, close up, and far away—it's light!

"Disappearing coins, balloon megaphones, CD rainbows, the science of light and sound sometimes seems like magic. Readers will learn the amazing facts behind these phenomena that are more fascinating than fiction. Simple language explains the properties of light and sound, while hands-on activities give readers tangible examples to help them retain crucial science information. Helpful tips make experiments easy and safe, and step-by-step instructions with photographs ensure accessibility. Readers will love focusing light to pop balloons, talking to friends over plastic cup telephones, and other whacky adventures in scientific principles. They'll learn incredible real-life examples of the same concepts they're exploring at home, such as how laser beams focus light to produce heat."
