Meter Stick Rotation Components - ME-7072
Components of the Meter Stick Rotation Set
Product Summary
These are the basic components of the Meter Stick Rotation Set (ME-7074). To use these components, you need a Half-Meter Stick, a Pivot, and a rod stand.
The Mass Holders are designed to use the cylindrical masses from Mass and Hanger Set (ME-8979).
In the Meter Stick Rotation Set (ME-7074), a Half-Meter Stick rotates about any point desired. The Wireless Force Sensor can be attached to the rotating meter stick to directly measure the centripetal force on a mass attached to the Force Sensor with a string.
The Meter Stick Rotation Components include two mass holders that can slide freely on the meter stick or be fixed in place. The rotational inertia of the apparatus can be determined by accelerating the apparatus by a mass hanging over a pulley with a photogate.
