As the pendulum swings back and forth, its energy changes from potential energy (the energy it has at the top of its swing, when it is raised up) into kinetic energy (the energy of motion). But the pendulum can be used as a device to explore other concepts as well. The time for one swing doesn't depend on the size of the swing or the mass at the end of the pendulum, only on the length. This is why the pendulum came to be used in the earliest accurate clocks! This classic wooden model offers children a basic concept of the laws of physics. Desktop sized.Key Features : i : Illustrate the principle behind the operation of a simple machine.ii : Learn basic physics principals in a direct, hands-on fashion.iii : Model contains a detailed activity guide which includes the history of the model, practical applications and classroom experiments.iv : Handcrafted from replenishable and durable rubber wood, an eco-friendly sustainable and high quality hardwood.

One pulley can be used to change the direction of the force applied by a cord several pulleys can be used to make this simple machine. A small force on the cord can be used to lift a large weight. Experimenting with the device shows why: lifting the block by a short distance requires that the cord be pulled a long distance. This classic wooden model offers children a basic concept of the laws of physics.

The great blocks of stone that made the pyramids weren't lifted into place they were rolled up ramps, or what we now call inclined planes. The inclined plane, one of the simple machines, allows you to raise great weights with small forces. This model lets students experiment with this principle directly, by seeing how much force is needed to pull the cart up the ramp.

When a cord is run over a pulley, the direction of the applied force is changed. This is a very useful principle in many different machines, and a basic principle that shows up again and again in physics classes. This device lets students explore and understand this basic principle. This classic wooden model offers children a basic concept of the laws of physics.

The screw, another of the simple machines, converts a circular motion (the turning of the screw) into a linear motion. It also lets you amplify the force a great deal, since turning the screw only moves the end of the screw a small amount.
