Moment of Force Apparatus
Product Code : JA-MI-4876
The Moment of Force Apparatus (SKU JA-MI-4876) is a lever and moments set for studying mass, levers, moments, forces and equivalence. With it, students measure the distance between the point where a force acts and the axis of rotation, and show that the moment of a force equals the force multiplied by its lever arm. The set has a heavy cast-iron support, three knife-edge clamps, two 500 g mass hangers and eight slotted masses with a storage rack. It is supplied by JaincoLab for school and college physics.
Specifications
The apparatus is supplied with a cast-iron support, three knife-edge clamps, two mass hangers of 500 g capacity and a set of eight slotted masses from 10 g to 500 g with a storage rack; the length of the lever is not given in the product data.

Experiments with the moment of force apparatus
The set supports the standard experiments on the turning effect of a force: balancing a lever with loads on both sides, finding moments from force and lever arm, and checking the principle of moments.
- Verifying the principle of moments with loads on either side of the pivot
- Finding the moment of a force as force multiplied by lever arm
- Studying lever balance and the equivalence of moments
- Mechanics practicals in secondary, senior secondary and first-year college physics
