Assemble the hovercraft and see how it conquers the space of your room! Gain new useful knowledge by playing with a 4M science kit. You will get acquainted with the basics of mechanics and physics, you will be able to surprise your friends and classmates with scientific achievements.
In the set you will find parts for assembling a 33 cm long boat model. The instructions describe in detail the principle of the boat, step-by-step assembly of the mechanism with illustrations, there are informative facts about the device and the use of airbags.
Use your boat from the scientific kit from 4M to travel on dry flat surfaces. Contact with water can damage the engine. The batteries power the engine and it rotates the propeller. The propeller blades direct the flow of air into the lower air duct, creating increased pressure under the boat. Now the boat can slide on the ground, barely touching it. The propeller also directs the flow of air back through the arch from above. The movement of the boat is due to Newton's third law. He says that every action provokes opposition. Therefore, when the propeller blows air back, it pushes the propeller forward, and with it the boat.
Hovercraft are also called hovercrafts. They were invented in the 1950s by the British Christopher Cockerell. Hovercraft can travel on land, dirt, swamps, open water. Airbags are used for high-speed passenger transport, cargo movement, as well as to change the location of troops. The largest passenger hovercraft reached 56 meters in length and weighed 310 tons. It carried 418 passengers and 60 cars.
The set from the KidzRobotix series will be interesting for children under 10 years of age. Assembling a boat and playing with it develops fine motor skills, intelligence, thinking, imagination, ingenuity, ability to design. The set is suitable for STEAM educational classes.
