Simulate ocean acidification by introducing carbon dioxide into water and measuring pH over time.

Bulk balsa, chipboard sheets, and dowels for blade making in the classroom.

A high quality enameled, copper magnet wire.

Functional glass model of steam turbine.

Build a miniature power generation system that converts wind into electrical energy.

Closed Case Form Electroscope is enclosed, preventing air currents from affecting the deflection of the leaves.

Use the Time of Flight Pad to precisely measure how long a projectile has been in motion. The Time of Flight Pad is used with the Vernier Projectile Launcher and a Vernier interface to determine the launch speed of a projectile, along with the time the projectile is in flight. Time-of-flight measurements allow students to see just how kinematic calculations work in real-world applications. The Time of Flight Pad is electrically like a photogate. When a ball strikes the foam top surface, a circuit is closed.

Test a local water sample to determine overall water quality.

Organize a DIY race, fueled by hydrogen generated electricity!

Experiment with gear ratios on your wind turbine or other small projects. Adding gears to your turbine can greatly increase the generator RPM, giving you higher power output. The small 8-tooth gear fits on 2 mm driveshafts that are found on many DC generators. The gears have a keying feature that allows them to be changed quickly and easily using the included hex locks. The hex lock secures to our 9/64 inch hex-driveshaft. Hex-driveshaft not included.

The simpleGEN is an easy-to-build AC generator that allows students to explore the basics of electrical generator design. With the simpleGEN, you can demonstrate Faraday’s law, light LEDs, and perform experiments that explore how coils, magnets, and rotation affect electrical generation. With some quick modifications, you will be able to convert your generator to a simple motor and explore additional variables. You can also take your experiments to the next level by converting your simpleGEN into a wind turbine nacelle.

Using the materials in this kit young inventors can build over 120 projects, including a magnetic fan, a sound-activated musical doorbell, and a fingertip flashbulb.
