Lego Physics: Gears & Cams:  How tall can a tower rise?  Can a tower be built three times taller by using three times the amount of materials?  Students will find out the answers to these questions as they discover how physics principles are put to practical use.  Using Lego building components, they will investigate structural designs and employ gears, cams and pendulums to explore kinetic and stored energy.
