DUBBED IN KANNADA by Mr. P. K. Nanavati. With a few magnets you can make this amazing spinning toy. You need a plastic scale, a bottle cap, ring magnets and some glue. First stick this magnet inside the bottle cap with rubber glue. Ensure that the bottle cap is not completely flat. It should have a circular curvature at the bottom. Now stick the doll so that you have pictures on both sides. You can see that this doll has a line of symmetry in the middle and that is where we place an old refill. Now the spinning doll is almost ready. Insert a bead at the other end of the refill and stick it inside the ring magnets. Take two ring magnets and put one on top and other at the bottom of the scale so that they are attracted and stick to one other. Now start playing with the doll. Tilt your scale a little bit and as soon as you take it towards the doll it starts rotating and spinning. You have to make sure it is in repelling position. The curved bottom of the cap makes sure that the repelling force makes the doll rotate. This work was supported by IUCAA and Tata Trust.
