Learn Physics - The Science of Everything!

Why does a brick feel heavier than a pencil? At what angle should you thow a ball into the air to get the greatest distance? How is a screw like a ramp? Why can you balance more easily on a bicycle when you are moving than when are stopped? How does a car transfer power from the engine to the wheels? What is power anyway? In Physics Workshop you will discover the answers to these questions and many more by building models and conducting experiments with them

You've probably heard of a Chemistry set. But have you ever heard of a Physics set? Physics is the essential science for everyone to study, and this kits is an excellent introduction to physics. Through the process of building 36 models and conducting subsequent experiments with each model, you will learn the fundamental laws of mechanical physics. Gravity, force, simple machines, acceleration, momentum, work, and power are all demonstrated right in front of you -- a hands-on approach that is fun and effective.

Physics Workshop includes more than 300 building pieces. The full-color, 64 page book presents assembly instructions, experiments, real-world physics applications, and fun activities in a richly-illustrated easy-tp-follow manner
