Principle

A body with variable mass moves on a circular path with adjustable radius and variable angular velocity. The centrifugal force of the body will be measured as a function of these parameters.

Benefits

  • Easy to read measures
  • Several loadable weights enable variable set-up
  • Freely set various steady rotational velocities

Tasks

Determination of the centrifugal force as a function

  1. of the mass,
  2. of the angular velocity,
  3. of the distance from the axis of rotation to the centre of gravity of the car.

Learning objectives

  • Centripetal force
  • Rotary motion
  • Angular velocity
  • Apparent force
