Investigate physics using technology from medieval times! Build six sleek, updated models of catapults, trebuchets, and other medieval launchers. These classic siege weapons from t he middle ages also happen to be great tools for teaching physics, including lessons in force, energy, motion, and projectiles. A catapult is a medieval ballistic device that uses mechanical rubber bands and counterweights to fling projectiles — in this case, foam balls — into the air. The 32-page, full-color manual has illustrated step-by-step instructions for building the models and conducting the experiments. Bonus: Also includes folded cardboard blocks so you can build a pretend castle wall and see if you can knock it down. Show more
