Wind Power Renewable Energy Science Kit 3.0

With this hands-on kit, kids can build a working wind turbine model complete with an electric generator, adjustable rotors, and a wind speed indicator! Children then conduct more than 20 experiments with the wind turbine, including tests using different numbers of rotor blades, unique blade angles and profiles, different wind speeds, new gear ratios, and other variations. The turbine can be used to generate mechanical power to lift a heavy weight or generate electricity to light up an LED bulb and charge a rechargeable battery. During each experiment, kids learn about the principles of force and motion and apply them to wind power technology. A 32-page manual with illustrated instructions and information is provided. Recommended for ages 8 and up.
