Experience the wonders of physics with the Newton's Cradle. Named after the legendary physicist Isaac Newton, this stylish desk ornament beautifully showcases the principles of conservation of energy, momentum, and friction. Pull up one ball, and watch as a single ball reacts in response; pull up two, and witness a graceful duo in motion.

As the spherical pendulums collide, they produce a soothing clacking sound that enhances creativity, focus, and relaxation. Picture it on your desk or in your office—a timeless addition that adds style and scientific charm to any space.

The Newton's Cradle is the perfect gift for gadget lovers, teachers, DIY enthusiasts, and busy executives.

  • Named in honour of physicist Isaac Newton

Educational fun

Sturdy and well made. Great fun and educational .. it’s one of those fascinating gizmos that are always a talking pointNewton's Cradle is a device that demonstrates the principles of conservation of momentum and energy through a series of swinging spheres. It typically consists of five identical metal balls (or spheres) suspended by strings or rods from a frame. When one ball on the end is lifted and released, it swings down and collides with the next ball in line. The impact causes the ball at the opposite end to swing upward with approximately equal momentum and energy, while the balls in the middle remain relatively stationary.

The key features and principles of Newton's Cradle

Overall, Newton's Cradle is not only a fascinating mechanical device but also an important educational tool in understanding fundamental principles of physics.
