Today in "Small Joys of Teaching": Did the demo where you hold two crossed polarizers in the projector, then insert a third between them at 45 degrees and more light gets through, and got to watch a student in the back row do the incredulous jaw drop. #PhysicsMagic

Can you solve it? You won’t believe these optical illusions! #Science #Physics #OpticsandPhotonics #OpticalIllusions #PhysicsMagic #VisualPerception

💡 Did you know that photons, those tiny packets of light energy, have no mass but can still carry momentum? 🤯 It’s like they’re light-years ahead in the game of physics! What would you do with a superpower that zips around at the speed of light? #PhotonFun #PhysicsMagic

Ever wondered if photons ever get tired? 🤔 These little light particles travel at 299,792 km/s! Next time you flip a light switch, remember: you're not just illuminating a room, you're sending a tiny rave of photons! 🌟✨ #PhysicsMagic #PhotonParty

In a vigorous debate about how boats work by displacement with , there has been a mutual agreement to replace the use of the words #physics and #magic, with the newly accepted description physicsmagic.

I hope we can all agree on this compromise position.
