Get the MECHANICS: Pulley Drives set and learn how Pulley
drives can be used to transfer force with reduced friction and how they
can increase force or speed at amazing levels. Pulleys have been used
for thousands of years and are essential parts of complex machines in
modern times, solving many technological problems. Build 8 working
models such as a material lift, a stationary bike, a crane bridge, a
blender, a construction crane and a windmill. You can find
easy-to-follow building instructions for all models either online or in
the booklet included. The booklet provides detailed explanations of the
different scientific principles applied and incorporates innovative
experimental activities for hands-on learning. A Quiz section is also
available to challenge your newly acquired knowledge! Conduct thorough
experiments and discover:
- how a compound pulley system works;
- how to change the direction of motion of a pulley system;
- how the pulleys' size affect force and speed.
