Program Description

Event Details

Who doesn't love playing with HotWheel® cars? But what is the science behind the fun? Bring your own favorite HotWheel® car or use one of ours to experience and learn about:

Why do cars leave the road and fly into space when they Round the Curve? Participants learn about Newton’s laws of motion using HotWheels® cars. They investigate the first and third laws of motion by observing how a force can change the direction a HotWheels® car moves. Participants learn that the cars move around a curve because of a sideways unbalanced force on the car.

On May 24, join us for "Ramp It Up!"
