Mechanics Learning Activities

Launch mini hovercrafts with different initial velocities.

Drilled balls are used for pendulum bobs or impact experiments, while our other balls are suitable for collision apparatus and density/volume experiments.

Affordable, Easy, Fun
Present these demonstrations in front of your class to excite your students about learning core physics concepts. Set up and execution are simple, so you can spend more time engaging your students. Ideal for introducing a unit or using as reinforcement after a lesson, these demos are available for all fundamental physical science topics.

Two 70 cm long spring scales allow students to easily see and demonstrate force experiments and equilibrium.

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.

Useful for collision and pendulum experiments.

These free-running plastic pulleys are durable in design.

With the Air Track, students can investigate motion phenomena at a precise level of measurement.

With the Force Mechanism Trough, students can research acceleration and the effect of gravity on a moving body by propelling steel balls or a wood block down an aluminum trough track.

Instantly transform potential energy into kinetic energy.

This track includes everything needed to demonstrate three basic concepts of physics: acceleration, collision, and force.

Allow Students to Plot Trajectories

High Quality and Economical

The Ballistics Car demonstrates an integral law of motion.

This sturdy Hooke's Law apparatus features a mirrored scale to eliminate parallax error.

The Newton Cradle is a large-scale, carefully engineered piece of equipment.
