Of particular interest is one of the largest exhibits in the World spanning four floors – “the Energy Balls” in which nylon balls, six inches in diameter are lifted to a height of 50 Feet, letting them gain potential energy and then dropped, letting them travel all kinds of paths, performing work to expend their potential energy into other forms of energy.

There are also small attention grabbing exhibits, like the magic tap which apparently gushes forth water suspended in space without any inlet, a harp, where merely moving one’s hands creates music and a suitcase which curiously resists being twisted about its handle – all items of student’s interest who account for almost 65% of the total number of visitors to the Centre.
