3B Scientific, UE1040201-230, Experiment for Mechanic: Moment of Inertia, 230 V, 50/60 Hz
UE1040201-230 Includes Only:
- Rotating System on Air Bed (230 V, 50/60 Hz)
- Supplementary Kit for Rotating System on Air Bed
- Laser Reflection Sensor
- Digital Counter (230 V, 50/60 Hz)
Features:
The moment of inertia of a body about its axis of rotation depends on the distribution of its weight in relation to the axis. This is to be investigated for the case of a horizontal rod to which two additional weights are attached symmetrically about the axis of rotation. The rod is coupled to a torsion spring, and its period of oscillation increases as its moment of inertia, which is determined by the additional weights and their distance from the axis, is raised.
