Choose a rocket—or design your own—place it on the launch pad, and blast off to learn Sir Isaac Newton's Laws of Motion firsthand! Crank the rotary pump to build air pressure (0–30 PSI), hit the silver launch button, and watch science take flight.
Perfect for spaces with low ceilings or take the cart outdoors for high-altitude experiments. This exhibit teaches how air pressure changes the height and flight path of each launch.
Light up your curiosity! The Circuit Bench FLEXCART invites learners to connect real circuits that illuminate bulbs, power buzzers, and propel fans to life. Build series, parallel, and combination circuits to see how current flows and resistance changes. Using Vernier Sensors, students measure voltage and current to explore Ohm's Law in action, discovering how energy moves through every circuit they create.
Can your design withstand the shake? The Quake Table FLEXCART challenges learners to build and test model structures against simulated earthquakes. Manually adjust the frequency of seismic waves and watch how different materials respond. Using Vernier Sensors, students collect real-time acceleration and force data, turning engineering concepts like design constraints and structural integrity into hands-on problem-solving.
Launch into the world of electromagnetism! The Ring Launcher FLEXCART lets learners experiment with rings of various materials and sizes to see how magnetic fields interact. Crank the generator to store energy, then press the green button to send rings soaring as magnetic forces collide. Using Vernier Sensors, students analyze data to compare materials and refine designs for maximum launch power.
Defy gravity with the Bernoulli FLEXCART! Learners can suspend lightweight spheres in midair, exploring how airspeed and pressure create lift—the same forces that keep airplanes flying. By experimenting with airflow, students uncover the Four Forces of Flight: lift, weight, thrust, and drag. This hands-on demonstration makes the invisible science of flight visible, memorable, and fun.
Discover the unseen force all around us. The Magnetic Basics FLEXCART features interactive stations that let learners explore attraction, repulsion, and the magic of magnetism in everyday life. From manipulating ferrofluid under a magnet to testing magnetic materials, students experience how magnetic fields shape the world—turning invisible forces into unforgettable discoveries.
