Eisco GP00003 Garage Physics Center of Mass Kit

Eisco GP00003 Garage Physics Center of Mass Kit - Centre of Mass (or Centre of Gravity) is a single point on any solid body about which the weight is balanced in all directions. This kit will explore the centre of mass of a two body system and create a demonstration that almost appears to be magic.

Young children can use the kit to try and balance the board, and older students can use precise measurements of mass and distance to determine force vectors and the overall balance of the system.
