EXPLORE CENTER OF MASS || Center of Mass (also known as Center of Gravity) is the unique point on any solid body where weight is balanced in all directions. It is also the point where when force is applied, the motion of the object is in the same direction as the force. With this kit, we will explore the center of mass of a two body system, to discover how we can extend our weights over the edge of a table

STEM LEARNING || Introduces students aged 7-13 to STEM concepts. Allows students to explore and visualize, calculate and move the center of mass, and to understand the physics & mathematics of forces and interactions

WHAT'S IN THE BOX? || Kit includes slotted mass set, protractor, three high strain rubber bands, two engineering balancing boards, cardboard storage box and instructions for assembly and experimental activities

ENGAGING & FUN || An excellent activity for classrooms and at home. Each kit engages the young learner to discover new ideas about the physical world through assembly and play

Description

The Eisco Garage Physics line is aimed at students aged 7-13 interested in STEM concepts included physics and engineering. Each kit engages the young learner to discover new ideas about the physical world through assembly and play.
Center of Mass (or center of gravity) is the unique point on any solid body about which the weight is balanced in all directions. It is also the point where if a force is applied, the motion of the object is in the same direction as the force. If the force is applied away from the center of mass, it must additionally rotate. You already take into account your own center of mass everyday. If you were to ever lean over too far, your center of mass would topple you over. With this kit, we will explore the center of mass of a two body system, to discover how we can extend our weights over the edge of a table.

Kit includes slotted mass set, protractor, three high strain rubber bands, two engineering balancing boards, cardboard storage box and instructions for assembly and experimental activities
The activity correlates well with the Next Generation Science Standards PS2, Motion and Stability: Forces and Interactions.
