“Crack,” and the puck flies into the goal! “Swoosh”, and the skier slips inside the flags! “Swish, click,” and the skater performs a beautiful leap! All of these are examples of impulse and momentum. The crack, the swoosh, and the swish are all examples of impulse. Flying pucks, slipping skiers and leaping skaters are all forms of momentum. Join Science Jim as he explains how impulse causes momentum and how well timed “cracks”, “swooshes” and “swishes” can lead to Olympic glory.

"We just finished with your class. WOW is all we have to say. We truly enjoyed it." Michelle N.

Thank YOU for the web classes. You are providing an education for my son that I never could. Looking forward to more. Athena B.

I was thrilled to watch my son with the concepts of gravity and friction. He spent an hour experimenting with all his various hot wheels and ramp combinations then explained it all to his brother later that day. It was awesome! Cindy C.

Have you ever wondered where downhill racers get their energy from? No, I don’t mean energy drinks or candy bars! I mean, what powers them to reach speeds of 80 to 90 miles per hour coming down the mountain? There aren’t any engines or jet packs on their backs. Where does the energy come from to give them all that speed? Well, the secret lies in a little something called potential and kinetic energy and Science Jim will tell you all about it.

What others have to say about Science Jim's Webclasses:


Just want to let you know my daughter LOVED your atoms class. She said she thought she finally found something she liked! Linda F.

I just wanted to let you know how much Samantha is enjoying the class! After every class I get to hear for the next couple days all she's learned. My husband and I both have science backgrounds and Samantha has never experienced much interest. So I'm enjoying watching her excitement being piqued! You can definitely count her in for the next class. Renee A
