My dad was a science and math teacher, and I used to screen the movies with him before he showed them to the class. This one was my favorite! Thanks so much for posting!

One of my favorites, too. Glad you liked it.

I saw this video when I took my freshman physics in the 80s. I still enjoy this video and have shared it with my college physics students.

Thanks for posting this. I remember this film, it was played in one of the first lectures of my physics study in 1984 (in the Netherlands).
