Free Fall Apparatus, Advanced 'G' Kit - Ideal for Studying Acceleration by Gravity - Aluminum Extrusion Column with Scale, Electromagnet, Rods and Clamps - Eisco Labs

This apparatus is designed for studying acceleration by gravity. A steel ball is suspended with an electromagnet, which when turned off, plummets toward the platform on to a landing pad. During its descent (or "free fall"), the only force acting on the ball is the force of gravity. This apparatus allows the small drag from air resistance on the steel to be measured. Included in this kit: Aluminum Extrusion Column with Scale, metal base, freefall sphere, ball receiver, electromagnet, and rods and clamps for attaching photogates on the column. Required by not included: Eisco Digital Timer with Photogates (PHGST08), DC Power supply and 2 long, banana terminal leads. Column with scale measures 47" tall.
