Experiment set MECHANICS 3 plus

Description

New standards

With the newly developed digital timer and its accompanying light barriers MEKRUPHY GMBH is setting new standards for classical mechanics measurements, not only in the areas of kinematics and dynamics, but also for the topics of energy, momentum and mechanical oscillations. In particular, this new measuring method at last makes it possible for students to conduct satisfying experiments on the laws of collisions and the conservation of momentum.

Universal track

The track is used here both as a track and as a stand. It is not included with the set since it is also used by other experiment sets.

Differences from MECHANICS 3

The MECHANICS 3 plus experiment set differs from the standard MECHANICS 3 set in that it contains an additional dynamics trolley, a mounting peg and another flag, a roll of string plus razor blades with a safe grip. With this supplement used in conjunction with the MECHANICS 2 set, experiments on the conservation of momentum and the laws of elastic and inelastic collisions can be carried out astonishingly easily but still with high precision.

Supplementary computer-based experiments on mechanics are provided by the MEKRUPHY experiment set MECHANICS 5
