This air pressure and vacuum set is used e.g. for demonstrating the effect of air pressure on the boiling point of water, the size of a balloon in a vacuum, and the holding power of a suction cup.
It can also be used to show that air has mass and that sound cannot travel in a vacuum. A plastic syringe and a one-way valve make up an affordable vacuum pump .
The set contains 10 experiment instructions, which can be given directly to students.
Set of four 4 oz bottles of mineral oil, for use with the Millikan Oil Drop Apparatus.
Allows students to mount Rotary Motion Sensors to the Rotating Platform or Gyroscope.
Set of metal replacement coupons of varying strengths, designed for use with PASCO’s Stress Strain Apparatus.
A 400 turn wire coil on one end of a wand that has two terminals at the other end to accommodate banana plug contacts, permitting easy connection of an electric circuit.
Allows students to conduct experiments to measure the speed of light. Reflect a laser off a movable mirror into a light receiver to measure phase differences.
PASCO’s Light Sensor is ideal for indoor and outdoor relative light intensity experiments.
Replacement test coupons for the Stress/Strain Apparatus.
A 200 turn wire coil on a bobbin that has a base with three terminals that accommodate banana plug contacts for measuring current or voltage. Can be mounted on a Helmholtz base.
Designed to allow the use of a force sensor as a balance.
The Stress Strain Apparatus lets students observe stress and strain as they stretch a material to the point of fracture.
