Newton’s 2nd law/ demonstration track
Principle
The distance-time law, the velocity time law, and the relationship between mass, acceleration and force are determined with the aid of the demonstration track rail for uniformly accelerated motion in a straight line.
Benefits
- Accurate results due to measurements with low friction: cart with sapphire bearings
- Over the entire track length adjustable feet for a very simple alignment of the track even on small tables
- Extremely robust accessories, for example no overloading of carts due to elastic bearing of base plate, prevent unnecessary breakdowns
- Detailed, illustrated step-by-step manual
- Timer 4-4 can be used for almost every experimental requirement: distance-time law for four distances, measurement of speed at four positions, principles of collisions, measurement of the orbiting time of a rotary movement, the direct measurement of the duration of a complete swing of a mechanical pendulum and for short or long-term measurements with two 8-digit displays by connecting each of 2 timers
