Academy Of Steam Multipack- Botanic Lab And Hydraulics Science STEM Construction Set

THIS BUNDLE IS MADE UP OF BOTANIC LAB AND HYRAULICS SCIENCE
BOTANIC LAB
Build a fully functional Greenhouse, plant your seeds and see them germinate!
RECOMMENDED AGE:
Ages 8 - 12+
DESCRIPTION:
Learning outcome: Learn about greenhouses and the life cycle of plants. Understand the importance of photosynthesis for life on Earth, and why atmospheric pollution leads to an uncontrollable greenhouse effect on our planet.
Experiment Method Description: Build a fully functional Greenhouse, plant your seeds and see them germinate! Monitor their growth and test how you are plants are affected by various conditions such as temperature, moisture and light levels.
Components: Engino parts, plastic skins and paper outlines, syringe, pots, transparent surfaces, seeds, soil, water.
HYDRAULICS SCIENCE
Build a hydraulic platform and investigate Pascals law.
RECOMMENDED AGE:
Ages 8 - 12+
DESCRIPTION:
Learning outcome: Industrial and construction machines use hydraulics to easily lift heavy objects. Learn how this can be achieved by applying the Pascals Law on a hydraulic press. Understand what hydrostatic pressure is and how it gets stronger by depth.
Experiment Method Description: Build a hydraulic platform and investigate Pascals law. Use syringes of different size to emulate how pistons can transfer pressure inside a tube. Add a load on the platform and push the pistons to lift it. Prove that pushing the smaller piston can magnify the outcoming force and lift a weight with less effort.
Components: Engino parts, plastic skins and paper outlines, syringes, water, few pebbles.
