Hands-On and Versatile Demonstration of Mechanics

Ideal for studying collisions in two dimensions, these pucks can be supported on plastic beads or levitated with air from the balloons to reduce friction. Use on any smooth, flat surface. The pucks measure 10 cm in diameter, and one puck is twice the mass of the other two.

Trebuchet: the greatest weapon from the ancient world

Visual scientifics inclined plane and car.

Teach students about two-dimensional collisons with this engaging activity, then use video analysis to analyze conservation of energy, and conversions between kinetic and potential energy.

Design structures to transfer power using cams and cranks.

Create and learn how bridges are engineered to make our life easier.

Engage students into designing levers and multiple other structures.

Plastic disc to demonstrate rotational energy.

Great for teaching that density depends of both mass and volume, students can't seem to put these spheres down! Two steel spheres are great for teaching the skills of observation and deduction.

The Capillarity Apparatus is intriguing demonstration of molecular attraction.

Instantly transform potential energy into kinetic energy.

Investigate the relationship between the speed of a fluid and its pressure

Gram Centimeter Plastic Cubes

The Moment of Force Apparatus contains everything needed to study principles of mass, levers, moments, forces, and equivalence.

This working model hydraulic/pneumatic jack shows how hydraulic or pneumatic systems can multiply forces.
