Item Description

Physics is an essential science for everyone, and the Thames and Kosmos' Physics Workshop kit provides a comprehensive explanation of mechanical physics.

Start by building small models, such as a fixed pulley, to learn about basic forces and simple machines. Then, work your way up to more complex machines, such as a pendulum clock, to learn more advanced concepts like work and centripetal force. This hands-on approach is both fun and effective because the principles of physics are demonstrated right in front of you.

This kit includes more than 300 building pieces. The 64-page, full-color manual presents assembly instructions, experiments and explanations in a richly-illustrated, easy-to-follow manner.

Ages 8 and up.

Sample Activities:

• build a windmill, two-speed crane, force scale, sail car, mars robot, hammer machine, centrifuge, pinball game, centrifugal switch, ship’s lantern, and dozens of other models

• experiment with simple machines: gears, levers, screws, inclined planes, pulleys, wheels and axles

• learn and understand the most fundamental physics equations

• read about amazing real-world applications for physics
