Meter Stick Rotation Set without Sensors
Kit without sensors for doing rotation experiments using a meter stick
This set is the same as the Meter Stick Rotation Set (ME-7074) except it has no sensors. A Half-Meter Stick rotates about any point desired. A Wireless Force Sensor can be attached to the rotating meter stick to directly measure the centripetal force on a mass attached to the Force Sensor with a string.
Description
The Meter Stick Rotation Set includes two mass holders that can slide freely on the meter stick or be fixed in place. The rotational inertia of the apparatus can be determined by accelerating the apparatus by a mass hanging over a pulley with a photogate.
Built-in Features
- The Meter Stick Holder mounts on either a Pivot (ME-7034) or a Rotary Motion Sensor.
- The Meter Stick Holder has a post for mounting the Wireless Force Sensor.
- A screw on the Mass Holder for attaching a string makes it easy to change the radius in a centripetal force experiment.
- The Mass Holder, installed upside-down, has fins for attaching the Wireless 3-Axis Acceleration/Altimeter (PS-3223).
