The Ranch Hand was designed to be used as a demonstration model for instructors and/or a reusable kits for students but will also makes for a great science fair project. The mousetrap can be attached and then reattached to any of the three predrilled mounting locations in order to investigate how the location of the mousetrap effects performance. The Ranch Hand comes with three different length lever arms so students can change see how the pulling force is effected by the length of the lever arm. The Ranch Hand also includes three different sized drive axles so students can see how the axle and wheel gearing effects both speed and travel distance. The Ranch Hand also comes with wheel treads for investigating traction and friction. Both CDs and DVD layers are included for investigating rotational inertia.
