Let's take a look!

Watch the video on YouTube.

What kind of experiment is this?

Experimental procedure and explanation:

• This is a wind car using gears.
• By using a crown gear, the axis of rotation is changed and the speed of rotation is reduced.
• The rotation speed of the axle must be reduced so that the propulsive force is increased.
