Description
GSC International 1476-8 Second Law of Motion Demonstration. Sold in a case of 8 units. Used in PEER Physics EFG Kit.
The kit includes a cast iron base, chrome-plated steel balls, and a clamping rod for easy assembly. Bring Newtonian physics to life in your classroom with the Vertical Acceleration Demonstration, a hands-on tool designed to illustrate the consistent influence of gravity on objects in motion. This engaging demonstration compares the motion of two identical objects—one dropped and one launched horizontally—released simultaneously to reveal key principles of gravity and motion.
The durable product is made from cast metal and steel. It is 12 inches in length and 4.5 inches in width
Illustrates the Uniform Effect of Gravity: Demonstrates that gravity accelerates all objects at the same rate regardless of whether they are dropped or launched, emphasizing fundamental physical laws.
Simultaneous Release Mechanism: Both objects are released at the same time to highlight the independence of vertical and horizontal motion in a controlled and visually striking way.
Engages Students with Real-World Physics: Clearly shows that the objects hit the ground simultaneously, helping students connect the abstract concept of gravitational acceleration to real-world examples.
Versatile Teaching Tool: Ideal for explaining concepts like parabolic motion, independent motion of vertical and horizontal components, and the universality of gravitational effects. Includes an instruction guide to assist teachers and students with the demonstration.
