Description

Principle

An object on an inclined track is subject to constant acceleration in parallel to the track due to the gravitational forces exerted on the object. The aim of this experiment is to confirm the laws of motion for a uniformly accelerated motion by measuring the time that a cart runs on the inclined demonstration track. In addition, the magnitude of the acceleration due to gravity can be verified based on Newton’s second law.

Benefits

• Accurate results due to measurements with low friciton: cart with sapphire bearings
• Over the entire track length adjustable feet for a very simple alignment of the track even on small tables
• Extrem robust accessories, for example no overloading of cars due to elastic bearing of base plate, prevent unnecessary breakdowns
• Timer 4-4 can be used for almost every experimental requirement : distance-time law for four tracks, measurement of speed at four positions, principles of collisions, measurement of the orbiting time of a rotary movement, the direct measurement of the duration of a complete swing of a mechanical pendulum and for short or long-term measurements with two 8-digit displays by connecting each of 2 timers
