Derek,
In hopes you didn't give up on this list altogether, here's a little
puzzle you might enjoy. There is a demonstration of the Feynman
sprinkler puzzle somewhere at MIT.
What simple modification could you easily introduce to the nozzle in
order to demonstrate a force due to suction as well as that due to
pressure? Perhaps I could hint that it would augment the force? :-)
