Who knew that the trebuchet, one of the most elegant of all medieval weapons ever invented, could be improved! By redirecting the pulling force of the counterweight with a pulley, the system is able to transfer much more energy to the projectile than the standard trebuchet. In fact, this system, with only half the throwing arm of our standard trebuchet (GP00009), is able to throw just as far, if not farther. The included guide provides clear assembly instructions with pictures. It also contains pedagogy for exploring concepts of energy transfer using the scientific method. A small Phillip's screwdriver is required for assembly; not included.
- Explore how the use of a simple machine (pulley) efficiently redirects gravitational potential energy to throw objects farther than a traditional trebuchet
- Manufactured with high quality, precision-cut Birch veneer pure bond plywood
- Includes the trebuchet, ping pong ball, and 1 kilogram counterweight
- Kit comes with a step-by-step educational guide and instruction pamphlet for experiment
