What is kinetic energy? It is the energy an object has because of its motion. In this kit, you will learn how to store potential energy and then simply turning it into kinetic energy to create motion!
This kit may look simple, yet it is extremely fun! With multiple sets, you have a race of who is able to store the most potential energy while converting it into kinetic energy to propel your car forward!
Let me explain, when you wind up the car's propeller, you're actually stretching the rubber band and store potential energy. When you release it the rubber band starts to unwind, and the potential energy is converted to kinetic energy, creating wind at the propeller to propel the car forward. While the propeller spins, it creates a change of pressure which creates thrust and thus, a forward motion of your wooden vehicle! Interesting! Right?
Confused? Get one now and give it a go! It's better to learn through hands-on experience! :)
