Steel Spherical Ball
Product Code : JL-LEP-10138
The Steel Spherical Ball (SKU JL-LEP-10138) is used as the free fall object in the free fall activity of a school physics laboratory. It has a diameter of 12.7 mm. In the set, the 12.7 mm steel ball is held at the release point by the solenoid, dropped from a measured height and timed by the digital timer, so that students can relate the height of fall to the time taken. JaincoLab manufactures it in India, made as per DepEd guidelines.
Specifications
The ball is specified by its material, size and role: it is a steel sphere of 12.7 mm diameter used as the falling object in the free fall activity, made as per DepEd guidelines and listed under SKU JL-LEP-10138.

Applications of the 12.7 mm steel ball
The steel ball is used whenever the free fall set is run, because it is the object whose fall is measured. In school physics it supports these activities:
- Timing the fall of a ball from a series of measured heights
- Plotting height of fall against time to study motion under gravity
- Comparing its fall with that of the plastic ball with metal screw
- Working out the acceleration of a freely falling object
