If you have trouble deciding what to do with your day then the Dynamometer is
just the machine for you. Similar to our Pneumatic Engine, this model operates
by turning air pressure into motion. The difference is that this model will give
direction to your otherwise aimless day. Blow on the top gear to set the
mechanism in motion. The air pressure you apply spins the arrow until it lands
on your task for the day. Now get to it!
The Dynamometer is one of the simplest UGEARS models but at the same time it
demonstrates several basic principles of mechanics, including the cascade of
gears and the mechanical junction known as the Geneva drive.
