The purpose of this experiment is to show a trick using inertia. The materials needed for the trick I chose, are a coin, a card (like playing cards. solitare cards), and a video camera. What you do is place the card on your index finger with the coin centered in the middle of the card, while it is on your finger. You must balance it in order for it to stay put. Then, once it is balanced, "thump" the card with your fingers. (In other words, flick the card). Once you have done this, and you did it correctly, the coin should stay put on your index finger. If it did, then your inertia trick turned out correctly and you just proved inertia! Whoohoo!
Here is the video of me showing this Inertia Trick:
