Perform this classic inertia demonstration to illustrate the transfer of potential energy to kinetic energy.

Build a catapult that transforms the potential energy of a twisted rubber band into kinetic energy. Experiment with design variations so that you can hit a target with a projectile.

In this physics activity, learners construct a small-scale version of a classic carnival game.

In this activity, learners explore how a hydraulic pump works. Learners work in teams to design and build a unique water fountain that employs a hydraulic pump.

In this activity, learners use a compass, powerful magnet, and copper magnet wire to build a special generator known as a dynamo.

In this indoor or outdoor demonstration, use a large and small ball to illustrate conservation of energy and momentum.
