Centripetal Force Apparatus
Show students the relationships between centripetal force, velocity, radius and mass.
Description
The study of circular motion traditionally involves examining relationships between centripetal force, velocity, radius and mass. However, these relationships are difficult to observe using traditional physics apparatus. One common experiment involves the swinging of rubber stoppers over a student’s head. The Centripetal Force Apparatus combines the “swinging mass” approach with sensors and a high-quality electric motor to create a system that allows students to discover these relationships empirically.
