Clues to Concept-Crack the Law
An interactive, experiment-first science challenge where participants watch short demonstrations and must identify the scientific law, principle, or concept behind each setup. Instead of learning theory and then seeing experiments, participants reverse the process by interpreting outcomes and reasoning scientifically.
Examples include: refractive index demos, Doppler shift audio, viscosity comparisons, pressure differences, resonance effects, magnetism interactions, and more.
This event enhances critical thinking, observation, physics understanding, and analytical skills, making it both educational and exciting for the audience.

RULES & REGULATIONS
Event: CLUES TO CONCEPTS – Guess the Law!
Participation Rules
This is a team event, and each team must consist of exactly two members.
A participant can be part of only one team.
Teams must register before the deadline and report at the venue on time.
Event Format Rules
Teams will be shown live or recorded experimental demonstrations by the organizers.
Participants must identify and explain the scientific law, principle, or concept behind each demonstration
The event follows an experiment-first approach; no prior theory will be explained.
Response & Interaction Rules
Teams will be given a fixed time limit to observe, discuss, and respond after each demonstration.
Answers must be based on logical reasoning and scientific understanding, not blind guessing.
Only one member per team is allowed to speak during answer submission (unless specified otherwise).
Restrictions
Use of mobile phones, smart devices, internet access, books, or notes is strictly prohibited during the event.
Participants are not allowed to touch or interfere with the experimental setups.
External hints, signals, or help from the audience are not permitted.
Evaluation Criteria
Teams will be judged based on:
Accuracy of the identified law/principle
Quality of reasoning and explanation
Observation skills
Team coordination
Time management
Conduct & Fair Play
Any form of malpractice, argument with judges, or rule violation will lead to immediate disqualification.
Teams must maintain discipline and professional conduct throughout the event.
The judges’ and organizing committee’s decision is final and binding.
