About This Product
With the platform level and connected to a suitable supply, a mass or accessory is placed on it and the platform is switched on. Students note how the object behaves as the speed, its distance from the centre or the mass changes, and link the results to angular velocity and the force needed to keep it moving in a circle. The platform is switched off and left to stop fully before accessories are changed. Educational Instrument can dispatch the Electrical rotating platform to laboratories in Chile, Mexico, Burundi, Lesotho and Yemen.
