Observe a phenomenon of physics as the Levitator floats before your eyes!
Magnets in the base and rod repel each other, enabling the rod to levitate and spin. The small contact area of the pin end against the glass means very little friction, so a small spin lasts a long time. See how long your spin will last!
Contains magnets and glass, so not suitable for children under three years of age or anyone with magnet-sensitive health issues.
Levitator assembled size: 140 x 80 x 60mm
Packaging size: 140 x 82 x 62mm
This product also makes a great classroom teaching resource. This product can be used in classroom activities that align with the Australian Curriculum.
