Principle and Working:

Additional information

Salient Features

  • Accessories simply plug into the ends of vehicle.
  • The magnet on buffers are identically polarised so they will repel producing elastic collisions between two vehicles.
  • Interrupter cards. These are for interrupting light gates for timing applications.
  • Facilitates the study of mechanics.
  • Linear motion under frictionless condition.
  • Precise and accurate data.
  • Computer connectivity.

Objectives

  • To study the linear motion under virtually frictionless conditions.
  • To study the elastic and inelastic collision.
  • To study the concept of velocity.
  • To study the concept of accelerations.
  • To study the conservation of momentum & energy.
  • To study the dependency of mass ratio to kinetic energy
