Eisco GP00007 Garage Physics Catapult Kit

Eisco GP00007 Garage Physics Catapult Kit - Easy to build and fun to use, this kit allows you to literally play with the physics of catapults.

Shoot ping pong balls over 20 feet and explore 12 different catapult geometries. Students can experiment with different arrangements until they find the optimal configuration! Kit designed for exploration under the supervision and guidance of a scientifically-minded adult.

STEM LEARNING - Introduces and demonstrates real world STEM concepts. Allows learners of all ages to explore and visualize physics concepts including force, acceleration, centre of mass, vector components, Hooke's law, parabolic trajectories, and class 2 levers.

ENGAGING & FUN - An excellent activity for classrooms and at home. Each kit engages learners to discover new ideas about the physical world through assembly and play. Correlates well with NGSS standards 3-PS2-1&2, MS-PS2-2, and HS-PS2-1, Motion and Stability: Forces and Interactions
