Moment of Force Apparatus with Weights
Investigate the fundamentals of the equilibrium with this simple moment of Force apparatus. A centrally mounted beam represents a two-arm lever. Movable riders are placed on the lever and weights are applied. Equilibrium is attained by moving the weights. Distances from the pivot point can be read from an integrated scale. The calculation of the lever arms is verified in the experiment. Includes instructions.

Inertia Balance
For investigating the nature of mass and the distinction between mass and weight. Two metal trays 130 x 55 x 23 mm are joined together with two spring steel strips of 23 mm width, the distance between the trays being 215 mm. One tray is drilled to accept 3 equal cylindrical masses. The other tray can be clamped to a bench horizontally or vertically. Complete with 3 masses and a ‘G’ clamp.

Gyroscope Bicycle Wheel
This apparatus is designed to help students understand about the world of rotational physics and demonstration of the angular momentum, torque and gyroscopic precession. Spin the wheel to move the wheel’s axis of rotation and hang it from the end of the rope and wheel axle keeping the rope in the vertical orientation and the axel in the horizontal orientation, the wheel will process with the rope remaining vertical. A hooked rope is also provided with apparatus.

Gyroscope
Gyroscope with Gimbal Cradle is an excellent, inexpensive apparatus, which is used to explore the mysteries of the precession, inertial guidance, gyroscopic compasses and stabilization. It is precision machined and balanced and runs smoothly with little vibration. Provided with pull string with handle, weight set and support hook. A pendulum mounting is also supplied that can be used for investigating the rolling moment. It demonstrates the principle of angular momentum. Supplied with user manual.

Centre of Gravity Apparatus
A simple and economical apparatus for demonstration of geometrical center of gravity of two-dimensional objects. PVC rod mounted on a base with a suspension screw at the top, 4 clear acrylic laminas – circular, triangular, square and trapezoidal. Each lamina has suspension holes along its periphery. The point of intersection of lines drawn from the point of suspension of 2 or more holes of a lamina gives the center of gravity of that lamina.

Young’s Modulus of Wires Apparatus Searle’s Pattern
Two metal frames are connected by a pivoted link which also carries a spirit level. A micrometer head reading to 0.01 mm is provided to re-adjust the spirit level. With two self-centering wire pin chucks, a ceiling bracket also with two pin chucks, a counterpoise weight & supply of suitable wires but without slotted masses.

Strip Testing Clamps
A pair of strong aluminium clamps, which allows strip material to be investigated for breaking strain, stretch etc. The clamps have wing-nut fixings and an attachment system that ensures freedom from slip. These clamps are used to study the comparison of the strengths of bag materials, stretching of fabrics, stretching of plastics and newspaper strength. This is done by attaching one of the clamps to the clamp provided in the laboratory and loading the lower clamp with slotted weights. A maximum of 15kg of weight can be hanged. Supplied without weights.
