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
