A Gyroscope is a fascinating mechanical device that at time seems to defy the laws of gravity. The unique characteristic of a gyroscope is that once it is set spinning, it tends to want to remain in its original plane regardless of rotation of its housing. The tendency to resist change in direction…

Inflatable world globe features country capitals, important cities, time zones, international boundaries and geographic features. The globe is 10” tall and 12” wide when inflated.

This product is often used to demonstrate principals of conservation of energy and simple machines. The pulley is constructed of plastic with a steel rod and roller bearing hub. Step sizes of the pulley are 1.5”, 2”, 2.5” and 4”. It is easily connected to a support stand with a right-angle clamp. …

BUILD YOUR OWN BALLISTA CATAPULT This kit is built from simple components – wood, leather, and string – but has an amazing result. Once built, the ballista can launch ping pong balls more than 30 ft at four different launch angles. Projectiles can be launched in a repeat, making for a safe and…

The Mini Projectile Launcher is for students of force and motion in any Physical Science Classroom. The apparatus is useful in studying projectile range versus angle and conservation of momentum and energy. The launcher will project steel balls at a range of 1 to 2 meters and can be set at…

This set comes with two 7cm pucks and two 9cm pucks, as well as four plastic tubes connected to balloons. The balloons and pucks can be put together without any tools. Place them on a smooth surface to experiment with levitation. PRODUCT WARNINGS WARNING: This product can expose you…

EXPLORE GRAVITATIONAL POTENTIAL ENERGY Medieval weapons, engineering, and physics - not a bad classroom learning activity, or way to spend a Saturday afternoon. This trebuchet which will throw the included ping pong ball more than 30 feet (or heavier objects even farther!). This kit allows…

The design of the SpillNot™ uses the principles of Newtonian physics to keep the liquid in the container. The flexible handle and the location of the suspension point above the center of the tray ensure that the forces on the liquid are always directed towards the supporting tray, even when…

Spirometry Lung Volume Kit 14-piece manual spirometry set used to study the volume of gas in the lungs during the respiratory cycle, an integral part of pulmonary function tests Kit includes 4 mouthpieces, 4 plastic bags calibrated to 6L, and 6 elastic mouthpiece holders Great for…

Hooke's Law states that the amount of elongation or bending of a spring is directly proportional to the force that is applied. This unit helps demonstrate this principle. Instructions included. Includes: 1 Sturdy base and rod 1 Testing spring 1 Metal scale 1 Indicator needle 1 Set…

The Loop-The-Loop demonstrates the transformation of potential energy into kinetic energy in a fun and interesting way! Challenge your students to calculate the minimum height that the steel ball can be rolled down the track and still complete the loop without breaking contact with the track.

Features a sturdy carriage made of high impact plastic. The one piece needle bearing wheels allows the carriage to roll with little resistance; a hole in the plastic body allows you to attach a cord. The approximate size is 5.5 x 2.5 x 1.5 inches.

The Holding Rod for the N-00012 Speed Measurement Photogate is a specially designed adapter or holder with an extension rod. The holder allows you to secure the photogate to any stand at any desired angle or height. It will ensure success in whatever experiment you wish to carry out with a slope,…

The Photogate provides a simple, instant, and direct measurement of speed without the need of a connection to another device such as a computer or data logger. The BeeSpi V Photogate uses advanced light gate technology to measure, speed, lap time, and cumulative lap time with using one timer. By…

The balancing bird is a great demonstration of gravitational force, center of gravity and equilibrium. The birds weight is distributed on the tips of the wings and the mass is near the tip of the birds beak which holds the bird in a stabilized equilibrium.

The Magdeburg Hemisphere is a modern take on the famous 17th century experiment. With the Magdeburg Hemisphere, you can demonstrate the force of air pressure without a vacuum pump. When the two cups are pressed together, the air is evacuated, and a vacuum is created. Separating the discs will be an…

The ring and disc both have the same diameter and mass. Roll them down a slope to observe the variation in acceleration between the two. This set is use to teach the relationship between moment of inertia and distribution of mass. Includes instructions.

Drilled for lab demonstrations Approx. 2.5mm drilled hole 1" Hardwood Ball 1" Drilled hardwood ball - can be used for collision and pendulum demonstrations. Hardwood ball can be used for hobbies and various other things. Approx. 2.5mm drilled hole

The experiment demonstrates the same rate of fall for objects of different masses. The plastic cylinder has rubber closures on the ends. One end has a hose connection that is used to evacuate air. The coin (guinea) and feather fall simultaneously because air resistance has been removed.
