About This Product
Students release a glider or ball from measured heights on the track and use the photogate timings to work out its speed near the base, comparing the gain in kinetic energy with the loss in potential energy. The loop module extends the practical to circular motion, where the class finds the lowest release height that keeps the glider on the track at the highest point of the loop. Educational Instrument can arrange export supply of the Dynamics and mechanical energy conservation to Indonesia, Vietnam, Mali, Mozambique and Uganda.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does the loop-the-loop module add?
It lets students study centripetal motion and find the minimum release height for a glider to stay in contact with the track at the 250 mm loop apex.
How is speed measured on the track?
Two infrared photogates connected to the electronic timer record the transit, from which the velocity is calculated.
