Wireless Centripetal Force Accessory
A low friction mass holder and mounting post so that the rotating platform can be used with the Wireless Force Acceleration Sensor to investigate centripetal force and centripetal acceleration.
The Wireless Centripetal Force Accessory is a low friction sliding mass holder that connects to a Wireless Force Acceleration Sensor (PS-3202). When installed on a Rotating Platform (ME-8951), it provides a simple and direct measurement of centripetal force and acceleration. Vary the mass using the holed masses in the Mass and Hanger Set (ME-8979). The string length is easily adjusted to vary the radius.
