The apparatus has been specially designed to perform experiments on force and acceleration. 1.2 m long aluminum track has a spring-based force mechanism mounted permanently at one end. The spring mechanism produces force using a multi-position trigger. Determine acceleration speed and distance attained by applying a variable force. The track is mounted on three plastic feet. The apparatus comes with…
For investigating the nature of mass and the distinction between mass and weight. Two metal trays 130 x 55 x 23 mm are joined together with two spring steel strips of 23 mm width, the distance between the trays being 215 mm. One tray is drilled to accept 3 equal cylindrical masses. The other tray can be clamped to a…
Understanding the principles of physics that occur on a roller coaster has become easier. This triple play apparatus consists of three tracks, one straight down, one with one loop, and the third with two loops. All three have different straight-up track lengths. At the end of each track is a catch sack to prevent losing the ball. The straight track…
To demonstrate the conservation of energy, conservation of momentum, and projectile motion. Consists of a metal track to drop a steel ball, and a circular scale for measuring the angle at which the ball drops. Includes two steel balls and instructions. Size: approx. 110 cm L.
A fun way to learn about velocity and acceleration. Launch marbles at five different speeds. The safety guide is printed directly on the hardwood marble launcher's surface. A protractor is built into the launcher. Includes two marbles and an experiment guide. 16 in. L c 10in. W x 11-1/2 in. H.
Useful for demonstrating momentum, conservation of energy and torque, a large flywheel suspended by two strong cords. The cords are wound around the shaft of the wheel and then released. The wheel will unwind as it falls, but will wind itself back up as the momentum carries the wheel upward in the opposite direction. This oscillation process will continue for…
To understand the relationship between moments of force, the amount of force, and the length of the lever arm. Includes a meter stick, three knife-edge clamps, aluminum support, two mass hangers, slotted masses from 1 gm to 500 gm, and a storage rack.
To demonstrate that 2 bodies will strike the floor at the same time even when their paths of flight and horizontal velocity components are different. Consists of a base, spring plunger, 2 steel balls (1 solid, 1 pre-drilled), with instruction sheet.
Large size to clearly explain the theory. Wooden frame consists of five nickel plated steel balls of uniform mass suspended from the frame. Includes instructions. Size: approx. 9″ L x 7″ W x 8″ H.
Approximately 28 cm long clamp designed to hold 3 pendulums, all pendulums can be individually adjusted without disturbing the others. With knurled thumbscrews to keep suspension cords secure.
Demonstrate how to string length and mass affect the movement of a pendulum. Simply attach strings of different lengths with different weights to the pendulum clamp and observe the differences in motion. Includes a heavy-duty pendulum clamp, a support stand with a 6 in. x 11 in. support base, and a 36 in. L rod, four 25 mm pendulum bobs…
Strong, all-metal construction. Height can be adjusted vertically and tightened at any point from parallel with the clamping surface up to 2 in. above it. Mount on a surface up to 2 in. thick. The aluminum pulley is 1-1/8 in. dia.
The Pulley Demonstration Set is designed to illustrate the working principle of simple machines. From the wheels on a bicycle to the gears in a car, the Pulley Demonstration System helps explain how things work. It helps students to understand the concepts of mechanical advantage, the efficiency of fixed and moveable pulleys, etc. Students perform quantitative experiments on fixed and…
Aluminum pulley, 70 mm diameter in a metal bracket with two clamping screws for bench and rod support respectively. The bracket may be clamped to a board or bench edge up to 38 mm thick, screwed to a flat surface or held in a 13 mm diameter support rod.
Brightly colored single and double tandem pulleys will add fun to your experiments. Made of durable lightweight plastic these 50mm diameter pulley blocks are held in a chrome plated metal frame. Illustrated activity guide included. Ages 7+.
Sturdy nylon constructed clamp pulley. The ball bearing sheave is 4.5 cm in diameter and can be adjusted from flush with the tabletop to 13 cm above it. In addition, the pulley can be rotated 360° to suit any experimental setup. Attached to tables up to 4.5 cm thick.
A low cost pulley for simple machines experiments, rigid plastic sheave with a deep V – groove, 50 mm in diameter. Can be attached to surfaces up to 25 mm thick.
