Free Fall Apparatus
Product Code : JA-MI-4863
The Free Fall Apparatus (SKU JA-MI-4863) determines the acceleration due to gravity, g, by measuring the time a steel ball takes to fall through a pre-determined distance. From the height and the fall time, g follows from the equation of motion for a body starting from rest. The listing does not give the drop height, release or timing method, so these are confirmed on the quotation. The free fall apparatus is supplied by JaincoLab for school and college physics laboratories.
Specifications
The listing states the method only (timing a steel ball over a set distance); drop height, release mechanism and timer are confirmed on the quotation.
