The PHYSICS RESOURCE MASTER SET is the ultimate combination of the 8
sets included in "Discovering STEM" series. It covers a wide range of
themes about Simple Machines, Gears, Linkages, Newton’s Laws, Solar
Power and Structures. The set comes in a convenient plastic storage tub
with lid that contains a large number of Engino parts, allowing the
construction of various models simultaneously. A geared 3V motor with a
large solar panel is included for animating the Engino builds,
converting solar power to electricity. The set comes with a library of
high-precision gears, pulleys and axles for changing speed, force and
direction of motion. Build 100 working models such as cars, cranes,
bridges and animated contraptions! You can find easy-to-follow building
instructions for all models either online or in the booklets included.
The booklets provide detailed explanations of the different scientific
principles applied and incorporate innovative experimental activities
for hands-on learning. Quiz sections for each chapter are also available
to challenge your newly acquired knowledge! Conduct thorough
experiments and discover:
- the three classes of levers and the use of linkages;
- how to gain mechanical advantage from wheel, axles and inclined planes mechanisms;
- how to use pulleys to change force and direction of motion;
- how to use cams and cranks to produce different types of motion;
- how to calculate gear ratio and how worm drives work;
- how Newton’s Laws affect our lives and what are the notions of inertia, momentum and energy;
- how structures are made strong and what types of bridges exist;
- how to harness solar power effectively.
The DISCOVERING STEM™ series was developed by qualified teachers and academics, following the latest pedagogical trends in order to combine theory with practice. The series deals with the core subjects of STEM - Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics - in a fascinating and enjoyable way. Each package includes a comprehensive activity booklet, covering a broad area of subjects: Mechanics and Simple Machines, Structures, Newton’s Laws, Renewable Energy and even Programmable Robotics! The combined packages of Simple Machines and Physics Resource Master Set include 5 and 8 activity booklets respectively.
