Children eight and up can safely and easily experiment with electric current and magnetic fields using the colorful snap-together blocks and components in this hands-on kit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBuild series and parallel circuits to light up a light bulb. Experiment with push buttons and on-off switches. Assemble circuits that include a spinning motor, two switches, and up to three light bulbs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eConduct tests to see which materials are magnetic. Learn about the force of magnetism and magnetic poles. Magnetize a metal. Use iron filings to make invisible magnetic fields visible. Investigate magnetic force and direction with a magnetic pendulum device. Learn how a compass works and about Earth’s magnetic fields. Conduct a series of experiments with a sturdy electromagnet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFinally, put everything you have learned to good use by constructing a loudspeaker, an electromagnetic relay switch, and a morse code telegraph key.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe components are specially designed to make learning fun and accessible. The electrical blocks fit together with simple plug-and-socket connectors. Because the blocks are brightly colored and have unique shapes, it is easy to follow the assembly diagrams to construct functional devices.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 64-page, full-color experiment manual guides you through experiments with easy-to-follow diagrams.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eProduct Information\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAges: 8+\u003cbr\u003eExperiments: 62\u003cbr\u003ePiece Count: 64\u003cbr\u003eManual Pages: 64\u003cbr\u003eProduct Dimensions: \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e16.8 x 11.5 x 2.1 in.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003eProduct Weight: 2.4 lb\u003cbr\u003eManual Dimensions: \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e11.5 x 8.25 in.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBatteries Required: AA (2)\u003cbr\u003eCountry of Origin: China\u003cbr\u003eYear Released: 2012\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eAwards\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eParents' Choice Gold Award Winner\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eNGSS Correlations\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e3-PS2-3 Forces and Interactions\u003cbr\u003e 3-PS2-4 Forces and Interactions\u003cbr\u003e MS-PS2-5 Motion and Stability: Forces and Interactions\u003cbr\u003e MS-PS4-3 Waves and Their Applications in Technologies for Information Transfer\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eDownloads\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/drive.google.com\/file\/d\/1k2srOiDw5Hnr4b-7k0W7jXbIu_impRBe\/view?usp=drivesdk\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Download Manual\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003eDownload Manual (PDF)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0104\/6331\/3977\/files\/620417_ElectricityMagnetism_Images_100623.zip?v=1780593985\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"download hi-res images\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003eDownload Hi-Res Images (ZIP)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Thames \u0026 Kosmos","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":31859503104057,"sku":"620417","price":59.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0104\/6331\/3977\/files\/Electricity_and_Magnetism_3DBox.jpg?v=1697829546","url":"https:\/\/thamesandkosmos.com\/products\/electricity-and-magnetism","provider":"Thames \u0026 Kosmos","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
