Lever Kit, Each

Details

ull; Kit includes: (5) Levers, (4) Fulcrum Triangles, (Plethora) of Counter Masses • Kit is used to outfit a classroom of 5 groups to study levers, center of mass, balance, equilibrium • Instructions not included • Levers are 23.75 inches long • Graduations do not correlate to English or metric units of measure in order to force empirical thinking about balance This Balancing Lever Kit is designed to promote experiential learning—allowing students to actively engage with core physics concepts such as levers, balance, equilibrium, and center of mass through direct experimentation. Ideal for outfitting five student groups, the kit provides all the essential components for dynamic, hands-on instruction. Kit Includes: • (5) Plywood Levers: 600 x 44 x 3 mm (approx. 23.75" long), graduated every 38 mm • (4) Fulcrum Triangles: 32 x 32 x 64 mm • (40) Square Metal Masses: 25 mm, matched to ±1% for consistent comparative studies Each lever features a central groove for accurate fulcrum placement and evenly spaced, non-standard graduations intentionally designed to encourage empirical reasoning rather than reliance on standard units. Key Features: • Facilitates experiential, inquiry-based learning of mechanical principles. • Supports 5 group setups—ideal for classrooms of up to 8 students per group. • Reinforces concepts like torque, balance, and the center of mass. • Durable and reusable for repeated use in labs or demonstrations. • Budget-friendly, flexible learning tool for STEM educators. • Allowing for customizable, open-ended exploration. • Perfect for interactive science lessons, this kit offers a tangible way for students to discover and internalize core physics principles through real-world experimentation.
