About This Product
A sphere rolled slowly towards the magnets speeds up as the attraction grows, strikes them, and passes energy to the sphere at the far end, which shoots off at high speed in a way similar to Newton's cradle. The magnets are held part way along the tube by steel washers, with two steel spheres on the downhill side. Magnets and spheres sit inside a clear plastic tube because neodymium magnets are brittle and can splinter, and the spheres can be accelerated with some force. A series of magnets and spheres gives even faster speeds.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q1. How does the Magnetic Accelerator Kit launch the sphere?
A sphere rolled slowly towards the magnets accelerates as the attraction grows, strikes them, and transfers energy to the sphere at the opposite end, which shoots off at high speed.
Q2. Why are the parts of the Magnetic Accelerator Kit inside a plastic tube?
Neodymium magnets are brittle and can splinter, and the spheres can be accelerated with some force, so the magnets and spheres are contained in a clear plastic tube.
Q3. What is included in the Magnetic Accelerator Kit?
6 magnets, 5 steel spheres, washers, a clear plastic tube with a rubber end stopper, and instructions for use.
