About This Product
A magnet falls through a copper tube at a slower rate than an unmagnetised weight, and the magnetised rat takes about 5 seconds to exit the tube. The demonstration becomes a classroom activity in which the pupil's challenge is to hit the rat with the bat as it emerges. Besides buyers across India, the Splat the Rat - Eddy current can be exported to institutions in Grenada, Costa Rica, Sri Lanka, Timor-Leste and Australia.
