Cross-disciplinary sets built around everyday phenomena: the body, materials and forces, the senses, and the sun and seasons. 37 products, 110V/60Hz adapted for U.S. labs.
When you breathe in, oxygen enters the lungs and is released into the blood. The blood distributes oxygen throughout the body and carries carbon dioxide back.
When breathing, a distinction is made between chest breathing and abdominal breathing. In chest breathing, the ribs are lifted by muscles, the chest space is thereby enlarged.
Air is a gas mixture consisting mainly of nitrogen, oxygen and carbon dioxide. In the course of respiration, oxygen is consumed and carbon dioxide is formed.
The human diet can be varied, fruit, vegetables or meat. Nevertheless, almost all foods contain similar components such as protein, fat or sugar (carbohydrates).
Starch (a carbohydrate) is an important source of energy for humans. Starch is absorbed through food (mainly cereal-based products).
The heart is a vital organ. It consists of two pumps working at the same time, which keep different circuits going. The heart pumps blood to all parts of the body.

Proteins serve as building materials for the construction and growth of the body. Therefore, especially the food for children and adolescents must contain enough proteins.protein is present in most...
Starch is only produced by plants and is therefore mainly found in cereal products or potatoes. One of the most important nutrients in our food is starch.
Sugar is an essential ingredient in our food. Sugar belongs to the carbohydrates, is solid and can be dissolved very well in water.
Not all substances are soluble in water. For example, some substances can only be dissolved in "oils or liquid fats" (these substances are called fat-loving).
Starch is a carbohydrate that is also found in human food. Starch is used, for example, for thickening food, because starch swells in warm water.
Humans have several different types of bones, which differ in structure and function. On the one hand, the bones differ in length, on the other hand in shape (flat or tubular).
The students observe the force that needs to be applied when lifting a mass with the aid of a fixed pulley and notice that the force that needs to be applied when using a fixed pulley is the same as...
Conductive and non-conductive materials with Cobra SMARTsense, supplied in the U.S. by American Scientific. Contact us for specifications.
The students observe the effects of the principle of action and reaction and they find out that two connected dynamometers always indicate the same force, leading to the conclusion that when one body...
The students observe the force that needs to be applied when lifting a mass with the aid of a fixed pulley and a moveable pulley and notice that the advantages of the previous experiments with only...
The students observe the relationship between weight and the length of the lever arm of a one-sided lever and notice that the point of application of different masses affects the effort which is...
The students will observe the relationship between weight and the length of the lever arm of a two-sided lever.
The students observe the force that needs to be applied when lifting a mass with the aid of a moveable pulley and notice that the force that needs to be applied when using a moveable pulley is less...
The students observe the behaviour of a dynamometer that is subject to various forces when different masses are suspended from it and notice that the weight of the suspended masses increases when the...
The students will investigate the current in a simple electric circuit. They will observe the brightness and current consumption of various light bulbs and conclude that the total current depends on...
The students observe the force that needs to be applied when transporting a mass and notice that the process can be performed with less force if the mass is not simply lifted straight up but rather...
The students will observe an electric circuit with two light bulbs connected in series as well as in parallel.
The students examine the behaviour of a thin, conductive wire in an electric circuit, observe that the wire heats up due to the current flow and draw the conclusion that electric current can be used...
Binoculars, especially for science and technology lessons. Thanks to the rubberized surface it does not slip out of your hand.

How are day and night created? Day and night are "created" by the rotation of the earth around its own axis, with day on the side facing the sun and night on the side facing away from the sun.

The earth performs two main rotational motions. On the one hand, it rotates around itself, and on the other hand, it orbits the sun. However, it does not follow a perfect gyroscopic motion.
A (human) life on earth would not be possible without solar radiation. Solar radiation provides heat and light on earth, but also the oxygen necessary for life.
How long do day and night last? Day and night "arise" from the rotation of the earth around its own axis, whereby the earth rotates around its own axis once every 24 hours.
Not only the earth moves in our solar system (around the sun), but also the moon. The moon rotates around the earth, whereby the moon takes different positions from the earth.
How do solar and lunar eclipses occur? The moon rotates around the earth. If the moon is at a "suitable distance" between the earth and the sun, it "blocks" the light rays from the sun.
The Earth's axis is perpendicular to the Earth's orbit, but slightly tilted (oblique). Since the axis is inclined, not all areas of the earth are "supplied" with the same amount of light and heat...
