Inclined Plane
Classroom Set
By: The Flinn Staff
The Inclined Plane Classroom Set includes inclined planes, end pulleys, string and
support rods—enough for eight groups of students. Mechanical Advantage with an
Inclined Plane laboratory instructions give students hands-on experience conducting
experiments to learn the benefits of an inclined plane, commonly referred to as a
ramp. Inclined planes are made of durable wood, have a smooth finish, and measure
5" x 19". Hall’s carriages, support stands and clamps and spring scales or slotted
weight sets are required for this laboratory, but are not included.

An inclined plane is an essential tool for every physical science classroom. Use this
four-foot-long, heavy-duty metal inclined plane to demonstrate and study frictional
forces, potential and kinetic energy and constant acceleration. Tough enough to support
a fully loaded dynamics cart. Includes a 12" long metal support rod and adjustableheight
pulley system. A clamp holder is required to support the inclined plane on a ring

stand and is sold separately. Dimensions: 48" x 6".
Inclined Plane and Cart Model
A simple and durable wooden model of an inclined plane with a cart. Additional
weight can be added to the cart to explore the effects on motion. Constructed of
particle board and wooden components. Cart has rubber wheels that fit into grooves
on the track of the inclined plane. Includes pulley, cart, string, and inclined plane with
grooves. 161/2" L x 31/4" x adjustable height to 4".

PSWORKS™ Carriage and Ramp
By: The Flinn Staff
Explore the fundamentals of force and motion
with the Flinn PSworks™ Carriage and Ramp. With this apparatus, students study
Newton’s laws of motion in action and understand the relationships between
distance, time, speed, and acceleration. Students will also be able to verify the
mechanical advantage of an inclined plane—the simplest of simple machines. An
extension rod is provided to support the ramp over the edge of a tabletop, which
allows the hanging weights to fall and move the carriage over the entire length of
the ramp.
Additional materials that are required, but not included, are a PSworks support
stand, photogate timer, weight hanger, weights and pulley cord.
