Why do mirrors invert a reflection from right to left but not up to down?
How electrical and magnetic forces work, and the importance of the discovery of electromagnetism.
Why do rubber bands stretch and contract? And why do two magnets feel as though there's something in between them when they repel each other?
Description
Richard Feynman, theoretical physicist, enjoys thinking aloud about the adventures science can offer. Here he uses physics to explain how the everyday world works, such as why rubber bands are stretchy, why tennis balls can't bounce forever, and what you're really seeing when you look in the mirror.
