Utah State hosted a heat-themed physics show Friday night in
the Eccles Science Learning center. The show offered families a chance to
experience science.
“It was a cool show, heat has some incredible powers,” said
Jake Christensen, a math and physics student at the university. “The way they
crushed the barrel, that showed how strong air is.”
Christensen was referring to a demonstration where, by
removing heat from a metal barrel full of expanded air, the barrel crushed in
on itself.
“I learn about these things all the time,” Christensen
said. “But it is still fascinating to see these events in action.”
Another student in attendance, Kyle Combe, agreed.
“I want to learn everything I can about science, and events
like this teach people so much, I study this stuff and I was still fascinated
by what I saw.” Combe said.
The annual physics show will be held again next year.
