of angular momentum.
Children stood on a platforc
and held a spinning bicycli
wheel. When they tilted theli:
cycle wheel, the platform begai
to spin.
Branndon Fricks, a seventt
grade student at Jane Lonj
Middle School, said the gyro
scope was one of his favoritt
exhibits.
“It was so fast, the wayil
made me turn,” Fricks said.1
learned that for every pusfc
there’s a pull, and for every
pull there’s a push.
“I liked the physics exhiki!
because it’s interesting to fm
out about the way things move'
Abigail Reid, a senior physic;
major, said the main focus oftb;
physics department’s exhibn
was to get children to questiot
and understand physics.
“We want the kids to asi
why things work the way
do,” Reid said.
E-Day at the Mall sponsored
several children’s contests, in
cluding a bridge-building con
test using popsicle sticks and
glue, a tower-building contest
using 30 straws, and a paper
airplane contest to see which
airplane could fly the farthest.
Each contest was divided
into an elementary school divi
sion and a junior high school
division, and the top three win
ners in each were given a sci
entitle prize.
Other events will be held at
A&M to celebrate Engineers
Week. On Monday, a sumo
wrestling match will be held
the Zachry Engineering Center
Lobby from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.
A free World Wide Web sem
