Thames & Kosmos | Building & Construction Physics Workshop

Description

Physics: The Science of Matter & EnergyForce = mass x acceleration – And don’t forget to factor in the fun!Sure, you’ve probably heard of a chemistry set. But a physics set? This is something new. Like chemistry, physics is an essential science for everyone to study, and Physics Workshop is the essential introduction to physics.Through building 36 models and 37 experiments, the principles of physics are at work before your very eyes.Explore and discover:Why does a brick feel heavier than a pencil? At what angle should you throw a ball into the air to get the greatest distance? How is a screw like a ramp? Why can you balance more easily on a bicycle when you are moving than when you are stopped? How does a car transfer power from the engine to the wheels? What is power anyway? Gravity, force, simple machines, acceleration, momentum, work, and power are all demonstrated right in front of you. Physics Workshop is a hands-on approach that’s fun and effective.Physics Education in an Outstanding Kit Build a wind power generator, crane, pendulum clock, sail car, mars robot, pin ball game, hammer machine, centrifuge, force scale, more Experiment with simple machines: gears, levers, screws, inclined planes, pulleys, wheels and axles Learn and understand the most important physics laws and equations Read about amazing real-world applications for physicsPhysics Workshop 36 Building Projects & 37 Experiments 64 page Experiment Manual Assembly instructions, experiments and explanations in a richly-illustrated, easy-to-follow manner 305 Building Pieces 2 C batteries required (not included)
