Welcome back to another edition of Science Sunday, where we are using a… treadmill… to help us explore some science today. This mini treadmill is one of our favorite tools here at the Science Center, specifically to explore how objects roll. Does the weight of an object effect how well it can roll? Learn the answer to that question and more in our latest Science Sunday segment below.
There is so much more Science Sunday to explore. Check out the full gallery of segments on our blog: https://ctsciencecenter.org/blog_categories/science-play/.
