Nov 10, 2010 at 21:25 comment added sigoldberg1 I added two new tags of "experimental-physics" and "education" to your question. I hope you don't mind. For me, a complete success with this question is for a couple of kids to get together and actually do the experiment, maybe asking questions along the way. Then I would add the tag "experiment" to their question, to indicate that it is dealing with a real, live, experiment.
