Barton’s pendulums is a well known resonance effect but usually difficult to set up and store. This apparatus stores flat and can be quickly unfolded to show the resonance between similar length pendulums. Once the demonstration is over it can be closed up again to safely store the pendulum arrangement until required again.

This add-on tube extends the barrel of the basic Vacuum Bazooka which means the accelerating force is applied for a longer time. The corresponding increase in momentum can be explored as part of an investigation into the impulse equation in mechanics.

Dynamics on a small scale; ideal for bench top investigations with multiple groups. The kit contains 5 ramps, 5 stands, 5 blocks, 5 cars and a pack of 5 different surfaces.

A fool-proof system for allowing students to investigate the raising of a mechanical load by an electrical input.

A flexible surface made from durable PVC measuring 120 × 1220 × 3mm with 5mm side walls. The track can be used for creating curved or sloping tracks for use with small vehicles in roller-coaster type situations. Tracks can be linked together using the plates provided.

For use in ‘g’ by free fall investigations with alternative lower sensors. The unit releases a ball bearing when the ‘ears’ are squeezed together. Connection is by standard 4mm leads.

Traditional hardwood trolleys on three double row ball bearing wheels for exceptional free running. Wheels are set back from main body of chassis to reduce the chance of collision damage and a flat top is provided to allow the trolleys to be stacked in order to double mass.
