C8-06 PILE DRIVER
Additional Info
- ID Code: C8-06
- Purpose: Illustrates gravitational potential energy converting into kinetic energy converitng into work
- Description: Start a nail into the center of the wood block. Place the block on the floor with the nail up and position the pile driver tube over the block. Hold the iron weight at the top of the tube and release it. The weight will fall to the bottom and pound the nail into the wood.
- Availability: Available
- Loc codes: C8, OS0
