Thames & Kosmos Physics Workshop
Ages 8 and up
Learning physics by building models!
Physics can be lots of fun to learn. The science of matter and energy can be explained and understood easily with hands-on interactive fun like you'll find in this kit. Not only is it great for learning physics, but it's an introduction to mechanics because you're assembling simple and compound machines! You'll be able to do tons of models with this kit, you'll build a wind power generator, crane, pendulum clock, sail car, mars robot, pin ball game, hammer machine, centrifuge, force scale, and dozens of other models! Read about amazing real-world applications for physics, learn and understand the most fundamental physics equations, and have fun with all the gears, levers, screws, inclined planes, pulleys, wheels and axles.
Includes a 64 page book, 36 building projects, 37 experiments, and 305 pieces to do it all with. Explanations of all the projects and experiments are done in a richly-illustrated, easy-to-follow manner.
