P4223: The Physics of Superheroes in Splash Spring 2015 (Apr. 11 - 12, 2015)
What would it take for Superman to leap a building in a single bound? How strong does Spiderman's webbing have to be to catch a moving train? Can a human replicate superhuman powers using man made devices? Can you be a superhero to save an egg from destruction? We will apply the lessons you learn in the class to the egg drop challenge, by building a container that we can use to protect an egg when we drop it off the roof.
