Physics Fundamentals Learning Activities

Description:   Vividly demonstrate Newton's concept of inertia.

Description:   Mounted on molded plastic base, the unit consists of a base into the top of which may be screwed one of a set of four vases of differing shapes. An aperture in the bottom has a thin rubber diaphragm across it, bearing upon the short arm of the lever pointer. A moveable index on the vertical rod enables the height of water in vases to be set at same level. The apparatus is mounted on moulded plastic base that measures 25 x 17.5cm. The experiment is performed by screwing in each vase, in turn, and filling with water to the same level. It will be seen that the given height of water will result in the same deflection of pointer whatever shape of the vase.

Description:   Ideal for classroom demonstrations of centripetal acceleration and transformation of potential energy into kinetic energy.

Description:   The determination of the gravitational constant ‘g’ is one of the most fundamental and early physical constants students must derive and observe. This kit has a wooden base, 1.1m rod and a movable electromagnet. The electromagnet can be moved anywhere on the rod and is powered by the timer. When the ball is released, the timer is triggered and stopped once the ball has landed on the base for a precise measurement and then calculation of ‘g’. Supplied with manual.

Description:   Demonstrate the effect of pressure to water depth.

Description:   Experiments cover Earth Science, Life Science and Physical Science

Description:   Observe the density across different materials and sizes.

Description:   Investigate centripetal force with this easy to use device.

Description:   Economical inclined plane with pulley.

Description:   Accurately measure the acceleration due to gravity through a 150 cm fall.

Description:   Illustrate force vectors and resultants.
