Apparatus for Demonstrating Circular Motion
Product Code : JL-GLE-11250
The Apparatus for Demonstrating Circular Motion, SKU JL-GLE-11250, is a JaincoLab centripetal force apparatus built as a simple centrifugal device. A cylindrical metal body swings out on its thread as the apparatus turns, and a vertically mounted pointer, moved sideways to line up with the tip of the suspended mass, marks its displacement at a given speed. From the mass, the speed of rotation and the radius, students calculate the centripetal force.
