Thames & Kosmos | Science & Nature Roller Coaster Engineering

Description

Build, experiment, and become a real roller coaster engineer!Young explorers get to learn the physics of force, motion, and energy as they conduct an action-packed series of hands-on engineering lessons with an easy, modular building system.Just piece together the sturdy frame structures and then attach the flexible track to it to build and test endless roller coaster designs!Experiment by varying the weight of the cars and varying the slope, length, and direction of the track. Get a practical introduction to real physics principles including gravitation, potential energy, kinetic energy, free fall, projectile motion, friction, centripetal force, velocity, acceleration, and more.Plus, fascinating challenges get the gears turning: What’s the tallest roller coaster you can build? How about the longest straightaway? Can you build a loop-de-loop?Complete with 305 building pieces and a 32-page full-color manual with step-by-step illustrated instructions, the Roller Coaster Engineering kit turns the science of fun into an easy-to-grasp adventure.Roller Coaster Engineering Kit for building and experimenting with roller coasters Encourages spatial reasoning, logic, curiosity, scientific learning, experimentation, discovery Modular building system makes it easy to build any roller coaster you can imagine 20 experiments to try Learn about gravitation, potential energy, kinetic energy, free fall, projectile motion, and more Come up with your own experiments! Includes 305 building and coaster pieces 32-page full-color instruction book included High-quality materials and construction – Exceptional build-and-learn experience
