Moment Of Inertia Apparatus
About This Item
Description
This apparatus is designed to help students visualize and understand the concept of moment of inertia, a critical concept in physics and engineering.Features
Features:
- This product provides a beautiful and engaging investigation of angular motion
- Observe the angular acceleration of the apparatus and investigate the effects of changes in torque and inertia
- Simply move the rope to a pulley of a different radius to change the torque, or move the mass on the arm to change the moment of inertia
- Qualitative observations are a snap, and students can easily see the dramatic effects of their adjustments
- The apparatus lends itself to accurate quantitative experimentation as well, with two ways of finding the moment of inertia: theoretically, according to the component masses and their dimensions, and experimentally, by measuring the angular acceleration for a given torque
- Ring Stand and Hooked Mass not included
What's in the Box:
- Rotating base
- 4 threaded rods
- 4 weights with setting-screw
