Online GoPhysics! Workshops
Gravity and Black Holes
July 24 & 25, 2024
Ready to learn more about the amazing world of physics? Perimeter Institute’s online GoPhysics! Workshops gives curious high school students the opportunity to use their high school physics to dive into modern physics topics.
GoPhysics! Gravity & Black Holes is a student workshop designed for Grade 11 and 12 students offered by Perimeter Institute. During the workshop, we’ll tackle some big questions: What is gravity? How is Einstein different than Newton? How do black holes, some of the most mysterious objects in our universe, fit into this discussion? Join other students to explore exciting physics topics through group activities and discussions.
