Additional Details

Demonstrate the Laws of Thermodynamics

This brass ball fits easily through the matching ring when they are both at room temperature. Heat the ball in a flame, and it expands so that it no longer fits through. Challenge your students to predict what will happen if you heat the ring instead!

Hint: Think about enlarging a photograph.

With the ball and ring comes an instructional guide that provides an explanation of the properties at work in this experiment. The data sheet also includes a list of related products to help with this experiment and other lessons on temperature change, thermal expansion, and the laws of thermodynamics.
