Air Pucks—Classroom SetUse this set of 30 air pucks to explore Newton’s laws of motion. No air table needed—the pucks float on a cushion of air above any smooth, flat surface as air escapes from a balloon. With hands-on experiments, students investigate principles of inertia, collisions, velocity and acceleration. The pucks’ mass can be changed with stacks of washers or pennies. Includes reproducible student handouts, teacher notes with sample data and 50 balloons.AP6917 I $84.40FORCE, MOTION & PRESSURE, CONTINUEDProjectile LauncherThis easy-to-set-up all-metal launcher clamps to any table in seconds. The launcher arm’s range adjusts with a simple, unique releasing device. Obtain unique sets of data with minor tension-spring adjustments. At any angle from –15 to 90º, ball height is constant at its release point. Includes directions and exper-iment outlines for projectile motion paths, muzzle velocity, angle effects, force effects, projectile weight and mechanical efficiency.AP5696 I $125.70Ballistic Pendulum, Economy ChoiceEffectively demonstrate conservation of momentum, calculate initial projectile velocity or determine a spring’s potential energy. Shoot a ball into the pendulum bob, capturing it inelastically at a maximum angle registered by a lightweight, counterbalanced pointer. Students calculate initial “muzzle” velocity of the ball using masses, maximum angles and conservation of momentum. Repeatable, accurate results. Detailed instruc-tions are included.AP7110 I $59.50Constant Speed VehicleThis simple vehicle provides the constant speed with zero acceleration needed to illustrate many physical science phenomena. Friction, vector, energy and power units all require this extremely rugged device that will withstand the rigors of student use. Platform top allows the easy addition of weight, and the hooked end allows easy attachments and additional vehicles. Complete with teaching instructions. Two AA batteries are required.AP5627 I $35.25Balloon Cars Challenge—Guided-Inquiry KitYour students will be thinking like champions with Flinn’s Balloon Cars Challenge! Each group constructs and tests an easy-to-assemble balloon-powered car prototype. Next, students use their knowledge of forces and Newton’s laws to identify variables that may affect the car’s performance. Modifications are then made to the basic design in order to investigate one or more variables. Finally, the redesigned cars are put to the test—who will win the challenge? A fun and memorable activity to engage students in science and engineering practices! Complete for 30 students working in pairs.AP7922 I $51.20Marble LauncherDurable apparatus to study velocity, accel-eration and projectile motion. Marbles can be launched from five different speeds at any angle between 0 and 90°. Velocity of the marble can range from 3 m/s to 9 m/s. Easy-to-read protractor allows for precise measurements and calculations. Sturdy hard-wood construction is built to last. Includes a detailed instruction guide and two marbles. 16” L x 10” W x 11½” H.AP7800 I $78.101,000+ PHYSICS & PHYSICAL SCIENCE PRODUCTS @flinnsci.com
