Work-Energy & Power Experiment
Product Code : JL-LE-10595
The Work-Energy & Power Experiment (SKU JL-LE-10595, Cat. No. JSS-688/060) measures the work done and the power delivered when a 12 V DC motor raises a load. The motor sits on an aluminium rail stand with a scale, and two photo gates with a smart timer on the same stand time the rising hanger, so students can relate the energy gained by the load to the time taken. This work energy and power apparatus runs from its own 12 V supply.
