Description

The Centripetal Force Apparatus allows you to investigate the relationship between centripetal force, angular velocity, mass, and radius. A force sensor measures the centripetal force exerted on a mass as it moves in a circle. A photogate can be used to measure the angular speed. Different masses can be added to the platform and positioned at variable radii. The platform can be driven by a falling mass. The apparatus also accommodates the Vernier Wireless Dynamic Sensor System to measure force, which provides the best set of data. Sensors are sold separately.

Centripetal Force Apparatus Motor Accessory Kit

This kit controls the rotational rate of the Go Direct^® Centripetal Force Apparatus so students can focus on a single variable and deepen their understanding of cause and effect. The Motor Accessory Kit drives the experiment setup at a constant angular velocity while students evaluate the centripetal acceleration and/or force required to maintain an object rotating at a specified radius. The rotational rate is adjustable.
