INERTIAL BALANCE, ECONOMICAL
(0159) |
Designed to assist in the clarification of relationship between inertial mass and gravitational mass. i. e.. mass and weight. Comprises two sheet metal rectangular platforms of size 130x50mm (width x length] supported by means of a pair of spring steel strips about 300mm apart. One of the platforms has 3 holes for suspending up to three cylindrical masses. Can be clamped to the bench top using G-clamp through the other platform (without hole] and is free to oscillate in horizontal plane under the restoring forces of spring steel strip connectors. Includes 3 cylindrical masses. a G?clamp. and nylon cord. After establishing the spring constant of the balance. with any combination of three masses placed into the slots. change in time-periods of oscillation can be observed by placing one mass at a time. Once calibrated. unknown masses may be measured. |
