Overview Details Customer Reviews A dozen models and 30 experiments turn learning about alternative energy into hands-on science fun in this award–winning kit. In one way or another, almost every form of energy we use starts as energy from the sun. Physics Solar Workshop explores solar energy using photovoltaic cells. Learn how solar cells transform light into electrical energy, and how motors and mechanical devices can optimize the work done by this energy. Build different vehicles and machines...

In one way or another, almost every form of energy we use originates as energy from the Sun. Solar energy directly powers photovoltaic cells and thermal collectors. Indirectly, we get power from plants grown by the Sun, oceans heated by the Sun, and Earth?s weather systems sustained by the Sun. Even the energy stored in fossil fuels originated as energy from the Sun, captured by plants and animals millions of years ago. Physics Solar Workshop explores the topic of solar energy, focusing on photovoltaic...

Who knew studying Physics could be fun in the sun? Through the construction of 36 models in 73 experiments, you will learn the laws of physics and how they apply to our everyday lives. Factoring the sun into each experiment, the kit also offers a perspective on solar powered machinery and alternative energy. Build a crane, windmill, robot, centrifuge, and more to learn about levers, screws, inclined planes, and axles. A full color 64 page manual is included with easy to follow assembly instructions...

I took a look at the box when we got this and thought, ‘Yikes—that looks complicated’ Cool, mind you, but complicated. My kids (and my husband) kept asking when we were going to get to play with the Physics Solar Workshop and I just avoided eye contact. Finally, I let them at it. What transpired was an entire afternoon of all-absorbing play. This is a perfect toy for any kid who likes to build cool stuff. My two older girls (10 and 7) don’t often decide to build things out of Legos or blocks...

Quick Overview Physics Solar Workshop explores the topic of solar energy, focusing on photovoltaic cells. By building 12 models and conducting 30 experiments, you will learn how solar cells transform light into electrical energy, and how motors and mechanical devices can optimize the work done by this energy.
