Kitty for the Study of the Motion of Bodies
Product Code : JL-GLE-11208
Kitty for the Study of the Motion of Bodies, SKU JL-GLE-11208, is a JaincoLab set of two laboratory carts for motion experiments. Each cart measures 290 x 140 x 90 mm and is listed at 0.87 kg, and the wheels run on spherical bearings for low friction. Two tracks, springs, spring holders and elastic cords complete the set for work on velocity, acceleration, collisions and momentum. The tracks keep the carts running in a straight line, so their motion before and after a collision can be compared.
