SCIENCE FAIR for Windows, Version 4.0    
    
Purpose:  SCIENCE FAIR presents ten real-world applications 
of physics and math - great ideas for science fairs!  For 
kids aged 9 to 16.

Levers teaches you about the three different lever types and 
forces required to balance them.  Study basic oscillations 
with Pendulum -- see effects of changing lengths, weight, 
and friction.  Plots of motion are given.  Water Wheel 
demonstrates the exciting world of chaotic dynamics.  
Examine wheel motion as different water flow rates are used.  
Moon Lander gives practice in understanding concepts of speed 
and acceleration as you try to land on the moon.  Weather 
Watch  provides tools that allow you to identify and predict 
trends in the weather.

Circuits allows you to build electric circuits from batteries, 
switches, and light bulbs.  See effects of different circuit 
types, burned out bulbs, etc. Robotics allows you to study 
the world of robots using a 2-dimensional, two-link robotic 
arm.  Trajectories is a simulation of a flying object.  The 
program introduces estimation and answer refinement skills. 
Rocketry is a demonstration of model rocket launches - vary 
thrust, burn time, and rocket mass.  Probability introduces 
an exciting field of mathematics with problems in coin 
flipping, dice rolling, and dropping toothpicks!
 
Requirements:   
 
Windows 3.1/95 
Visual Basic 4.0, 16 Bit Run-Time Files (most likely already 
on your machine) 
 
Installation:   
 
To install, run the SETUP.EXE program.  If SETUP does not  
operate properly, you need to install the Visual Basic 4.0  
16 Bit Run-Time files.  Follow these instructions: 
 
1.  Go to our web page at URL 
    http://www.jetcity.com/~kidware/te07000.htm 
2.  Click on the ZDNet link there. 
3.  You will be taken to a page with: 
    Visual Basic 4.0 16 bit Runtime Drivers v4.0 
4.  Download this file.  VBR416.ZIP is written to your machine. 
5.  Unzip file.  VBR416.EXE is expanded. 
6.  Run VBR416.EXE - new files will be written to your machine. 
 
After this, try the SETUP program again.  If you need any help, 
just contact us - we can send you a disk with VBR416.EXE. 
 
Uninstall:  To uninstall the SCIENCE FAIR programs, simply 
delete the directory (folder) they are installed in. 
 
Status:  Shareware, freely distributable.
