There are people who can do truly amazing and fascinating experiments, and luckily for you, we created a list of 10 simple physics experiments with everyday materials to learn and impress your friends.

Not only small children, but many adults are excited and intrigued to see some kind of an experiment especially physical experiment. Today, just like a long time ago, there are people who understand and people who don’t understand the laws of physics and how they actually work. This is the main reason why people are so impressed with them and often ask “How did you do that?!”

It is interesting to try all kinds of different experiments at home to entertain yourself and your friends as well. However, despite that you can use a physical experiment to impress someone special or if you have children teaching them physical experiments and how the physics works could have a positive impact on them. For example, maybe they will get into the physics world so much they would want to explore it even more.

If you are a professor, on the other hand, you can also show these experiments to your students in a very simple but fun and interesting way. They will get the physical laws quicker and will remember them probably for the rest of their lives. Some of them will even remember how their professor passed his knowledge about physics to them and they will do the same for their children. If you are into physics, you can also check our list of 10 Winning Science Fair Projects For High School.

Keep in mind that when it comes to experimenting and playing with physics, safety comes first. Most of these simple physics experiments with everyday materials are completely safe, however, some of them are requiring an adult supervision. Don’t underestimate the power of physics and always put safety as the first step of the experiment.

In order to create our list of 10 simple physics experiments with everyday materials, we used Informit, a YouTube Video, and Little Shop of Physics as our sources to see what are the simple experiments you can do at home. The list is sorted by the number of mentions and the rankings provided by our sources. Keep in mind that sometimes you can use different materials and achieve the same result!

Now without further ado, let’s jump to our list and try to make these simple physic experiments.
