Description

The Engino STEM Pulley Drives set teaches children how pulley drives can be used to transfer force with reduced friction and how they increase force or speed. Build 6 working models including a windmill, a construction crane, a stationary bike, two types of bridges and a mixer. Examples of the models to make and learning opportunities include 1) stationary bike – learn how simple mechanics work together in order to prodce an outcome. Experiment and discover how velocity depends on the applied force. 2) crane bridge – construct a crane bridge and try to lift some objects. Discover how pulleys help you lift heavy objects more easily. 3) construction crane – experiment and learn how force is transferred from one point to another and how we can gain mechanical advantage. 4) windmill – learn how pulleys can be used not only to transfer force but also to transfer force but also change the speed. Experiment and discover how linear motion is turned into rotary motion with the help of a bell drive. A fascinating book is included with 6 pages of innovative experiments, 20 pages of theory and amazing facts and 18 pages of step by step modelling instructions. A two page revision quiz is included so you can test your newly acquired knowledge
