This simple and ingenious device quickly and graphically shows students how different metals conduct heat at different rates. It consists of four identically-sized bars of common metals - steel, brass, aluminum, and copper - mounted parallel to one another in a plastic support. Attached to each bar...

Learn how rockets are launched into space and how spacecrafts explore the solar system. Learn about the mission to the Moon and how astronauts live in the International Space Station (ISS). Discover the science of space exploration and the hazardous threats of space environment. Build 5 models such...

This sturdy electroscope features a metal case with front and rear glass windows for preventing air currents from affecting the deflection of the leaves. Leaves are gold and aluminum. Leaf support rod is held in place by an insulating plastic sleeve. A graduated scale is also provided for measuring...

This is an attractive table-top model of the fascinating Stirling Engine. The Stirling engine is a heat engine and is much more efficient than an internal-combustion engine that is often used in cars. The engine uses a system called the Stirling Cycle. The Stirling Cycle uses an external heat...

The connector cord set have Cross-Patch/Stacking Banana Plugs which allows you to connect to another Banana Plug on both the side or back of the first plug. The cords are plastic coated and flexible. The set includes 6 cords; 3 black and 3 red.

This set is a combination of the basic 5 sets of “Discovering STEM” series and covers all simple machines mechanisms. These mechanisms offer a mechanical advantage and are crucial elements of many machines and devices. They are designed to multiply or reduce force, increase or decrease...

A tuning fork is an acoustic resonator. When struck it produces several tones, a fundamental and a harmonic. The tone is primarily determined by the length of the tines. Longer tines vibrate more slowly and produce a lower tone. This tuning fork can play the note C at 256 Hz.

The Two Potato Clock is a fun demonstration of the principles of an electrochemical cell. The blue plastic potato (fruit) clock has two compartments designed to hold potatoes or fruit. The coils, one red and one blue, are inserted into a different potato while the green coiled wire is connected to...

The Moon’s influence on the Earth’s tides and gravity make it an important topic in astronomy discussions. The globe is vibrant incolor and 5.5” in diameter. The Moon globe shows craters, seas, and landing sites of the Apollo missions. Includes activity guide. Symbols indicate...

Red and Blue Plastic covered bar magnets. These magnets are attractive as well as an easy way to teach magnetic attraction and repulsion.

This 6" by 6" square of silk can be used to observe the relationship between friction and electricity. Sold individually.

This sturdy pulley is excellent for use with an inclined plane or any other similar apparatus. Ite features a 4-cm plastic pulley mounted on a chrome plated steel rod. The overall length is 15cm and the shaft diameter is 8mm.

Square specimen set is used for density and specific gravity studies. Set of four includes aluminum, copper, steel, and brass cylinders. Includes a storage box and activity guide.

Powerful Alnico 1 bar magnets, shipped in pairs, with separators and keepers. Width 1/2, Thickness 1/4.

Made from Plate Glass, with carefully ground and polished optical survaces, and cleanly ground edges, these lenses feature a diameter of 38mm - 125mm and focal lengths from 50mm - 500mm.

The Mechanical Wave Kit helps students explore standing wave patterns at different resonant frequencies, longitudinal waves and the node and antinode points on the wave. The Mechanical Wave Kit was designed to include everything needed to study wave patterns. It includes a Sine Wave Generator that...

Discover how people communicated over long distances before the telephone was invented. The Morse code experiment kit is designed to show the principle of a telegraph. The kit consists of a "D" cell battery holder, a telegraph key, a miniature lamp with holder, and three connector cords....

A simple but effective device for demonstrating Lenz's Law using eddy currents induced in the wall of a copper tube by a falling magnet. The demonstrator consists of a 12"; long copper tube and two apparently identical metal slugs with rubber end caps. One slug is plain steel, and falls...

Support for bar magnets or friction rods. Allows magnets or friction rods to hang freely and turn in a horizontal plane. Hooks are 89mm apart.

The Spring Scale Centripetal Force Apparatus is a simple device that allows students to investigate the relationship in circular motion between the radius, the velocity of the moving object, and the external force required to maintain the motion. When students hold the white handle and carefully...

The clear plastic 6" / 15cm ruler is scaled in 1mm increments on one side.

Sold by the dozen.

Using the Visual Scientifics Platform this state of the art equipment makes learning Newton's laws more interesting than ever by having students use technology they love, their smart phone. This kit contains: - Projectile launcher - Mounting hardware - Ball - Protractor with bob Main activities...

Inertia is the tendency of an object to either remain in motion or remain at rest, unless acted upon by an outside force. A glass ball is balanced on a platform sitting on a support rod. As a metal arm is pulled back and released, it abruptly pushes the platform out of the way and, given the...
