Apparatus to study the moment of inertia Manufacturer,Supplier and Exporter in India
Product Code : SCL-MH-12706
Quick Answer: The Apparatus to Study the Moment of Inertia is a rotational dynamics set in which a falling weight on a string turns a rotating body about a fixed axle. Timing the fall over a measured distance gives the angular acceleration and the moment of inertia.

Key Features
Rotating body on an axle in a support frame
String wound on the rotating assembly, with a weight hanger and slotted weights
Fall distance measured against a scale
Used for torque, angular acceleration, moment of inertia and rotational kinetic energy
About This Product
The hanging weight supplies a torque, and the time it takes to fall through a measured height gives the angular acceleration of the body. Repeating with other masses shows how torque and mass distribution change the motion, and the energy shared between the falling weight and the turning body can be compared with energy conservation. Laboratories and colleges in Cambodia, Botswana, Guyana, Croatia, Poland and Luxembourg can buy the Apparatus to study the moment of inertia through an export order.
Frequently Asked Questions
How is the moment of inertia found with this apparatus?
A weight on a string wound around the rotating assembly is released, the time to fall a measured distance is recorded, and these readings are used to calculate angular acceleration and then the moment of inertia.
