SERIES OF SIMPLE MACHINES: Pulley (Crane)

SERIES OF SIMPLE MACHINES: Pulley (Crane) – An Educational Model

Pulley (crane) is one of 12 functioning experimental models in our SERIES OF SIMPLE MACHINES. Like all simple machines, it can be used to demonstrate the gain in force, calculate it, and find practical applications. Examples of pulleys (cranes) are, after all, cranes and construction hoists...

For this experimental model, a theoretical discussion guide and ready-to-use worksheets for teachers and students (separate!) are included:

1. How large is the gain in force?
2. Crane.

All the simple machines in this series are made from a friendly material—wood. Dimensions: 33x8x23 cm. Weight: 535 g.

Is this teaching aid so simple? That's good! Because this is a MODEL OF A SIMPLE MACHINE!

Simple machines can be found all around us, also in very COMPLEX devices. We'll even find them within ourselves... It only takes extending our arm and bending it at the elbow.

Experiment with our simple machines — we include detailed worksheets for teachers and students.

Show serious formulas in practice! Only such learning makes sense.

The SERIES OF SIMPLE MACHINES includes 12 models of simple machines - 6 basic and 6 complex designed for practical hands-on experience with their operation, illustrating the gain in force achieved through using a given machine, but also for calculating this gain based on specific machine settings as depicted by our model.
