The Dual-Range Force Sensor has two ranges: ±10N or ±50N. It can be easily mounted on a Vernier Dynamics Cart for use with the Vernier Dynamics System. Mount one on the New Centripetal Force Apparatus, on a ring stand or even as a replacement for a hand-held spring scale. Use it to study friction, simple harmonic motion, impact in collisions, or centripetal force. This force sensor is used for a whole range of experiments in the Physics, Physical Science, and Middle School science lab manuals.
