CK-6983 SOLARED POWERED BOAT ACTIVITY

Power from the sun can be harnessed in many different ways. This clean, environmentally safe form of energy is readily available and is being used to heat water, heat buildings, cook food, provide electricity and many other applications as well. Your Solar Powered Boat Kit uses a high current silicon solar cell to directly power a small electric motor. The shaft of the motor will turn a small plastic propeller when the sun strikes the solar cell. When connected with the correct polarity, the propeller will produce a force of wind which will push he small balsa wood boat forward. This kit also contains parts and instructions for several scientific experiments. All of the experiments are designed to give a basic understanding of solar cells, magnetism, compass operation, electric DC motors and method of propulsion. Only simple hand tools, sandpaper, white glue and tape are required, but not included. In addition, you may wish to customize and paint your boat. Paint is not included. No batteries and no soldering is required. Great for Summer Science Camps! SCIENCE CAMP DISCOUNTS - Buy 10 or more solar boats for only $22.95 each, or order 100 or more and you'll get the solar boat for only $20.95 each. Wow!!!
