springs 

 

Springs are found in loads and loads of things around you, and work by stretching and shrinking, pulling things as they do.

 

In this activity, you'll find out what sort of things contain springs, how they work and what happens when they stretch and shrink.

 

Springs are all about forces - you need to use force to make them stretch, and as they do so a force builds up within the spring.

 

Let's find out more!
