Determine the Unknown!

The Bottle Rocket Launcher uses the power of compressed air and water for liftoff.

The simple Atwood Pulley Machine features two pulleys connected to a sturdy rod.

The rolling friction car kit provides four cars for exploration into the force of friction. Each car provides a set of different material wheels (wood, fabric, soft rubber, soft silicone) with a different coefficient of friction. By setting the cars in motion with equivalent velocities, one can qualitatively demonstrate the frictional properties of rolling without slipping.
