Orion Multi-Physics Mechanics Experiment Set

Product Details

This portable, lightweight, and easily assembled kit can be used for many experiments. Inclined planes, springs, pendulums, and force can all be studied with this engaging kit.

The following are included:

Inclined Plane Experiment Explore:
• The gravitational constant
• Forces on frictionless cart-dependence on angle and mass
• Motion under constant acceleration
• Conversion of potential to kinetic energy
• Static and kinetic friction
• Rotational motion with different inertia discs (demo)

Springs Explore:
• Simple harmonic motion – amplitude, frequency
• Hooke’s Law
• Spring constant
• Use of force gauge (dynamometer)

Pendulum Explore:
• Laws of simple pendulum
• Harmonic Motion
• Conversion of Potential energy to Kinetic energy
• Effect of Pendulum length and mass
• Effect of air friction on motion and period

Force Balance Experiment Explore:
• Study of balance and equilibrium
• Sum of vector forces and torque
• Effect of weight of lever
• Use of force gauge (dynamometer)
