Join STEAM on Demand, Persona AI, and the Ion for a hands-on, family-friendly STEAM workshop. Newton’s Second Law of Motion, Force = ma, explains how force, mass, and acceleration interact. In this lesson, students will explore Newton’s ideas by building and testing a ball launcher.
Through hands-on construction led by the STEAM on Demand platform, they’ll see how different forces affect movement and momentum. By the end, they’ll understand how acceleration changes based on an object’s mass and the force applied to it.
Special Guest Partner:
Persona AI’s vision is to be the labor platform for skilled industrial work. Whether the worksite is a shipyard, energy infrastructure, construction site, or another dynamic environment, our humanoids will do the heavy industry 3D jobs — dull, dirty, and dangerous — so that humans don’t have to.
Persona AI’s engineers and team will be leading this workshop, lending their expertise in engineering and robotics. This is the perfect chance for your student to meet people working to create Humanoids at Work!
This event will be tailored for 7-14-year-olds and their families for a fun STEAM experience! We look forward to building and learning with you!
