Product Summary

With the ES-9070 Coulomb’s Law Apparatus, students can accurately measure charge, force and distance between two conductive spheres. Its symmetrical design minimizes stray and mirror charges and built-in magnetic damping ensures quick, accurate measurements.

Features

Built-in Balance Scale: A degree scale on the torsion balance provides accurate measurements of the torsion wire’s twist angle.
Magnetic Damping: Allows measurements to be made quickly, minimizing the traditional difficulties with leakage currents.
Milligram Masses: Included so determining the torsion constant and verifying its linearity can be part of the experiment.
Insulated Track: The calibrated track is designed plastic to minimize mirror charges which can significantly affect results.
Built-in Track Scale: A millimeter scale on the linear track provides accurate measurements of the distance between the spheres.
Vary Charge Accurately: A third conductive sphere, identical to the experimental spheres, is included for reducing the charge on one or both spheres by fixed ratios. This method is quick and accurate.
Symmetric Construction: All conductive parts are symmetrical, so errors due to mirror charges are practically nonexistent.
