Me and a couple friends are trying to resurrect the old physics club at my university and could use some cool inexpensive experiment ideas to try and boost attendance and have some fun. Any ideas?

Some examples of cool physics experiments include the double-slit experiment, the Bernoulli's principle experiment, the Galileo's inclined plane experiment, the Newton's cradle experiment, and the Schrödinger's cat experiment.
The materials needed for a physics experiment will vary depending on the specific experiment. However, common materials include rulers, protractors, magnets, batteries, wires, bulbs, lenses, mirrors, and various household items such as water, balloons, and food coloring.
To make physics experiments more fun and engaging, try incorporating hands-on activities, interactive demonstrations, or visual aids such as videos or animations. You can also challenge yourself by modifying the experiment or coming up with your own hypotheses to test.
There are many benefits to doing physics experiments, including developing critical thinking skills, honing problem-solving abilities, and gaining a better understanding of scientific principles and concepts. Additionally, performing experiments can be a fun and exciting way to learn about the world around us.
Yes, safety should always be a top priority when conducting physics experiments. Make sure to read and follow all instructions carefully, wear appropriate protective gear, and have adult supervision if necessary. Also, be cautious when working with electricity, chemicals, or any potentially hazardous materials.
