CIRCULAR MOTION APPARATUS

CIRCULAR MOTION APPARATUS

• All circular motion experiments can be carried out on the laboratory bench with this very useful Circular Motion Apparatus.
• Comprises a variable speed electric motor mounted on a horizontal rod with three different sized interchangeable rubber balls.
• Results are obtained which enable graphs to be plotted providing excellent results.
• Instructions included.

(Wikipedia excerpt: .."...In physics, circular motion is movement of an object along the circumference of a circle or rotation along a circular arc. It can be uniform, with a constant rate of rotation and constant tangential speed, or non-uniform with a changing rate of rotation. The rotation around a fixed axis of a three-dimensional body involves the circular motion of its parts. The equations of motion describe the movement of the center of mass of a body, which remains at a constant distance from the axis of rotation. In circular motion, the distance between the body and a fixed point on its surface remains the same, i.e., the body is assumed rigid.

Examples of circular motion include: special satellite orbits around the Earth (circular orbits), a ceiling fan's blades rotating around a hub, a stone that is tied to a rope and is being swung in circles, a car turning through a curve in a race track, an electron moving perpendicular to a uniform magnetic field, and a gear turning inside a mechanism...")
