A complete solution for the study of free fall and pendulum motion
The apparatus is designed specifically for the study of free fall due to
gravity and the study of the Law of the Pendulum.
It consists of a vertical column with a graduated scale and an electromagnet,
mounted on a triangular base with levelling screws and a basket for the falling
spheres.
The acceleration of free falling bodies, defined as "g", is studied by
measuring the time necessary for a falling body to move a fixed distance on the
graduated scale. The apparatus can be used with ECOS electronic timer.
To use a large LED display for classroom use, the Altay Large Display (code
2236.50) is an ideal choice.
